HENDERsoN's LIFE SAVED.
The jury Found Him Guilty of Muir
der in the Second Degree.


Philadelphia, April "a merciful jury
yesterday saved the life of Samuel Hen
derson, the youthful murderer of little
Percy Lockyer, by declaring him guilty
of murder in the second degree. The case
was given TO the jury on Friday night,
and after waiting until nearly midnight,
Judge Audenreid adjourned court until
yesterday morning, when the verdict was
announced fG
The result was no surprise to the off,
cials, who had expected something of the
kind, although Assistant District Attor-
ney Barlow pressed for a first degree YER
dict. When the jury filed into the court
room the boy prisoner was apparently the
most disinterested of all the spectators.
He leered at the jury as he was ordered
10 face them and his only anxiety ap-
peared 10 be caused by the absence of his
mother from the place she occupied the
day before.
After the verdict had been recorded At
torneys Keir and Crowley, addressing the
court, said that the verdict was probably
in keeping with the testimony. and prob
ably much more merciful than they had
a right to expect. For that reason they
would not make motion for a new
trial, but in view OF the fact that the
jury had been so mercifully disposed to-
ward the prisoner, they would still fur
ther throw the boy upon the mercy of
the court, and ask the judge TO be as len
lent as il was possible for him 10 be.
Mr.. Barlow said that he did not agree
with the statement that counsel approved
Of the verdict. He did not approve of the
verdict, he said. and declared that there
were people in this community who
should be safeguarded against such boys
as Henderson.
Judge Audenried said he would not SEN
tence the prisoner at the present time,
but would consider the matter until a
time, the exact date Of which he would
let counsel on both sides know.
1t was stated that the jury for a long
time stood eight for second degree, three
for acquittal and one for first degree.
The murder was committed on January
Il, 1898. The victim, Percy Lockyer, was
five years old and attended the kndergar-
ten of the West End Public School, at
Sixtieth and South Streets. When the
school was dismissed for the day young
Henderson met Percy and another little
boy and cnticed them to Glackin s
Woods. where he deliberately murdered
Percy by stabbing him several times with
a knife throwing the body into a nearby
creek. He put large stones on II to KEEP
II under water. and the coroner's investi-
cation disclosed that death was due to
drowning.
There was an absence of any motive for
/ the crime. and Attorneys William G. KeiI
I and John c. Crowley, who represented The
prisoner, made hard fight to reduce the
4 grade of the crime. They set up the de-
fense OF insanity, alleging that Henderson
was an imbecile. and the appearance oi
! the prisoner strengthened that theory
J The Commonwealth called a number OF
experts on insanity and mental diseases
| all Of whom testified that Henderson wal
| perfectly sane. Experts for the defens'
declared him to be an imbecile of the mid
/ die grade.

About Port Tampa

The war with Spain directed at
tention more to Port Tampa than
any one place in the United States.
This was for the reason that the
largest military expedition that
ever left the shores of the United
States was loaded and sailed from
the docks there. The work was
done in a very short time, consid-
ering the fact that there was a
great deal of incompetence dis
played in handling the government
end of the business.
So much has been said and writ
ten about the loading of General
Skaters expedition, with its fleet
of 80 steamships, that the public
will appreciate some detailed in
formation about theimmense facil-
tiles which are found ready for use
the foresight and business sagacity
of the head of the Plant System,
for he built largely for great
business that must pass through
that port at no distant day.
The railroad yards of over 36
miles of track at Port Tampa, Port
Tampa City and Tampa belong to
the Plant system, have capacity
of over 1000 cars, leaving working
room for all the business that this
number of cars would bring 70 the
place. The tracks are perfectly
arranged, and experienced railroad
men say that no railroad yard in
the south will compare with this
for conveniences in handling big
business. The business is in the
hands of railroad men of expert
ence, and no delays are traceable to
them. Between Tampa and Port
Tampa is a stretch of nine miles,
To illustrate the perfect system
employed in handling the business
it is only necessary to say that from
6 O'Clock in the morning until
11.40 at night rs passenger trains
passed over this nine miles every
day Besides this, the freight
trains numbered more than this
