JOHN PLEW FOUND GUILTY
THE JURY DEIIBERATED on THE
CASE ONE HOUR AND HALF.
PIew VIII Serve an Indeterminate
Sentence-Co1. Streight-s Es-
tate-Other Court Cases.

John Plew. charged with assault and bat
terry with intent 10 kill Charles Vickers,
who was found dead in the rear of Wach-
stetter's saloon on West Washington street
four weeks ago last Sunday, was found
guilty by the Criminal Court jury yester-.
DAY and sentenced to from two to fourteen
years in the penitentiary. vickers entered
the saloon after IL o'clock on the Saturday
night before he was found dead and had a
fight with Plew. Wachstetter and porter
named Coleman were the principal wit
nesses yesterday and testified regarding the
brutal fight
1t is said that when Vickers entered the
saloon he inquired if there were any prize
fighters in the room and wound up his con-
versation by striking Plew on the chin with
his fist The witnesses testified that Wick
ers followed up this blow with another.
which struck Plew the nose, and then
Plew struck Vickers, knocking him down.
AS Vickers was attempting to get on his
feet it is said that Plew kicked him several
times and then ne and the porter dragged
the dazed man into the yard back of the
saloon.
The testimony was to the effect that Plew
stayed behind the saloon five minutes after
the porter returned, and that when the
saloon was closed Wachstetter and Cole
man left the building by the front way and
Plew by the back way. The next morning
Vickers was found dead in the back yard.
His body was still warm, but his position
indicated that he had not moved after be-
| ing dragged from the saloon.
Coroner Brayton and DIR. Frank. b. Winn
held a post-mortem examination and found
| that Vickers had died from a blood clot on
| the brain. The coioners verdict held that
| there might not have been any relationship
| between the blows struck by Plew and his
| kicks and the blood clot. For this reason
| Plew was not indicted for murder or man
| slaughter. Plew's defense was that he was
| engaged in a fight, but did not intend to
| seriously injure Vickers The trial began
| in the morning and the jury retired at 4:30
| in the afternoon An hour and half later
| il returned a verdict Of guilty.
