Rockwell Found Guilty.


Fred X. Rockwell, the man charged
with killing Lewis Haines in Jones
township, Elk county, last winter, was
found guilty of murder in the first de-
gree at Ridgway, Thursday. The jury
was out only an hour. The affair was of
The highly sensational order. On jan
uary the charred remains of a man
were found in the ashes of an old black
smith shop on Mill creek. A month later,
after skillful work, detectives identified
the remains as those of Lewis Haines,
and Frederick Rockwell was arrested
charged with the murder. At prelim-
mary hearing Mrs. Newell, mother of
Haines' wife, testified that Rockwell told
her he had killed Haines and piled brush
over the body, then set fire to it to con-
ceal the crime. Mrs. Newelps son told
that Rockwell and Mrs. Haines had been
intimate and Rockwell was jealous of the
husband. He told witness that he meant
to kill Haines, and afterward told him
that lie had done so.
We would like to give the testimony
in the case in full, but space will not per-
init, so we will give only the testimony
OF Mrs. Haines, the main witness in the
case, who was taken to Ridgway by
Sheriff Walker last week. Her testi-
timony, which we take from the Eur
Democrat, is as follows:
Mrs. Annie Haines-Been married IL
years have four living children; Oldest
ten years old; youngest fifteen months
old lived at Seldom Seen last December;
Fred Rockwell and 1 were quite int-
mate; l told Rockwell l would marry
him if my husband should die; kissed
Fred after my husband died; Fred
wanted to elope with me, but ! refused I;
my husband said he would come back as
soon as he got work; my husband ac-
cused me with being mean with Fred
| Rockwell when / wasn't; identified cap
Haines wore when he lett home the last
time; Haven't seen my husband since; (;
saw Fred the next morning; came in
| window and sat down on my bed; Fred
| said he got Lew down on his knees whit
tling shavings; drew twice to strike him;
| hit him the third time and killed him !;
| piled stuff on him and set him on fire;
| Fred says now you are left single and L
can marry you replied / will see; saw
Fred in the Tionesta Jail often; kissed
| him frequently.
Cross eXamination-Never said my
husband was going to York state; my
husband kissed the baby before he left,
| but don't think he kissed me; don't
know whether my husband is dead 4;
Fred Rockwell said he was.
Although the evidence seemed to be
very conclusive, Rockwelrs attorney, e.
j. WINNER, made a motion for new
trial. The Judge plainly intimated that
dozen new trials would not help his
clients case any, and advised Mr.. VIM
mer not to hold out any hope to the con-
victed man. However, he would hear
his argument for a new trial at the next
Argument Court on Monday, May "a, so
Rockwell's neck is safe for a short time
at least.
