ishment at life Imprisonment" This
verdict was returned in the case OF
Henry e. Youtsey, charged with being
one of the principals in the murder Of
William Goebel. After returning the
verdict the jury was discharged. 1t
was learned from a juryman that no
ballot was taken last night. This
morning the vote was unanimous that
Aoutsey was guilty, but the jury was
somewhat divided on the degree OF
punishment. Finally they agreed on
the life sentence.
The attorneys for the defense are
preparing a motion for an arrest OF
judgment, which if sustained, will
postpone the sentence of Youtsey until
February.
The defense filed a motion for the
arrest of judgment and Judge Cantrill
set the motion for hearing the second
day of the February term, therefore
Youtsey will not be sentenced till next
year. On the judges own motion he
entered an order to have Youtsey
moved to Frankfort Jail for sale keep
ing, and he will be taken there to
night.

ON THE GOLD BRICK ORDER.
Man Gets Into Difficulty in Agency
Today.


Agency, Oct. 2O.-(SpeciaD-A man
giving his name as Humbert, from
Ohio, struck this little town Monday,
and hunting up Captain H. G. Hum
bert, of this place, at once established
relationship on the cousinly order. He
had no gold bricks to sell, but he had
a scheme just the same. He repre-
sented to the captain that he had sold
his farm of 100 acres back in Ohio for
$50 an acre and desired to buy farm
in Iowa. If the captain knew of any
near Agency the cousin would be
pleased to look it over. The captain
is accommodating and took the cousin
to the farm owned by Demosthenes
Newell. 1t pleased the cousin and he
made "a deal, but no money was paid
and no papers drawn. This morning
the cousin wanted little ready
money, saying he intended visiting his
newly acquired property. Would the
captain be so kind as to lend him, say
Sc. The captain did and the cousin
boarded Burlington No. this morning
for Ottunnwa, but just as the train
pulled out Captain Humbert thought
of gold bricks, etc, and caused Con.
stable. Springer to place the bogus
cousin under. arrest and he is being
/ tried today on the charge of obtaining
money under false pretenses.

went further back and said that the
panic of 1857 was occasioned by dem
ocratic rule. He repeated Bryan's pro
phecies in 1896 and showed that he
had failed in prophecy as time had dis
proved every prediction then made. He
drew a picture of what would occur
under free silver, which he maintained
was the paramount, if not the only is
sue. The farmers would be unable tc
lpay off their mortgages, the laborel
would not get credit owing to depreci
alton of the circulating medium, and
