GUILTY OF MANSlAUGHTFR
The Jury at Fremont Convicts JOSEPH
Dusseldorf.

Dusseldorf.
FREMONT, Neb., Dec 2.-Joseph T.
Dusseldorf was convicted of the killI
ing of Arthur C. Payne at North Bend
on June 20, 1901. The jury went out
at 2:50 and returned at 405 with a
verdict Of manslaughter. This will
let Dusseldorf off with a penitentiary
sentence Of anywhere from one to ten
years. 1t is understood that the de-

that the evidence showed some exten;
uating circumstances. Sentence has
not yet been pronounced.
