every thing into consideration, was satisfied
that Smith was not by any means so bld as
the police officials painted him, and gave the

and a bright little boy were in the court room
early in the morning, and when the boy
caught n glimpse OF his unfortunate father,

American Citizen Convicted Of MUIR
der in Colombia.

Washington, Aug. lathe United States
consul at Medellin, Colombia, reports TO the
state department that the trial OF Charles
hadford, an American citizen, was termi-
mated on July by verdict Of guilty or muir
der. Sentence of death was pronounced on
the oth, and an appeal was taken Immediately
TO the highest local tribunal. Radford was "a
judge of an Alabama court before he went to
Colombia TO engage in farming. He was ar
rested several years ago ON the charge OF
killing man. Through .the efforts OF ex-
secretary Herbert action on his case was de-
ferrod during the Cleveland administration.
MIR. Olney and Mr.. Herbert worked hard to
secure his release, but the Colombian author
ities were obdurate. The consul says that
the sentence is regarded as iniquitous, and
that hopes are fentertained that IL will be re.
yersed. If not further appeal can be taken
20 the Supreme Court at Bogota.
After his sentence Radford was placed i'm
heavy irons by order OF tho alcade and other
wiss treated in cruel manner. The consul
protested 10 tho governor of the province
against such needless cruelty and was told
that he was powerless TO interfere with the
alcade's orders. The consul thon telegraphed
the American minister Mt Bogota asking him
TO appeal to the government TO secure better
treatment for the prisoner.
In his report on the case the consul says
that the trial Judge said he did not expect the
verdict even by the jury and that surprise
and indignation are expressed by those who
were present at the trial. The Jury was com
posed OF three very young men who accord
ing 10 the consul were deficient in intell-
gence. Jurors cannot be challenged in Colon
bia. Five names are drawn by lot. one is
struck out by the prosecuting attorney, one
by counsel for the defense and the remaining
three constitute the Jury
