RYNO GUILTY.
Jury in the Mcpherson Murder
Case Renders Verdict.
Arrives at a Decision After a
Forty Hours Session.
IN BOX OVER SUNDAY.
"Assault With Intent to Kill"
is Their Finding.
Judge Simpson Has Not Yet
Passed Sentence.
IN BOX OVER SUNDAY.

Mcpherson, Kan, Dec. 22-The jury
in the RSno-Holmes case arrived at
decision at 9:15 this morning after re-
naming out continuously since Satur-
day evening at $50 o'clock. Their YER
dict was Guilty of assault with intent
to kill" Sentence has not yet been
passed by Judge Simpson but probably
will be this evening or tomorrow.
The case was styled 1.-The State of
Kansas VS.. Arthur Ryno,' and the COM
planning witness was Miss Nellie
Holmes, a sister of the injured girl.
The sensational features of the case
are: First, that there is no direct evil
dence but everything against the de-
PENDANT is circumstantial: second, that
the good reputation of Miss Maude
Holmes and the atrocity of the shoot
ing with its attendant mystery. have
aroused the greatest interest all over
the county: third, that the anonymous
letters received by Miss Holmes bear
such a striking resemblance to writings
of Rxno.
On the evening of July s. 1902, Miss
Maude Holmes, living northeast of
GalVa, was preparing to retire when she
was struck with the full charge of a
shotgun. fired by someone just beneath
her bedroom window. She was very
seriously wounded and for a time her
life was desDaired of. For months pre-
vious to the shooting Miss Holmes had
received anonymous letters some
threatening. some in lovers vein, and
others seemingly of plain friendship.
These letters annoyed the family
great deal, and after the shooting SuS-
picion pointed to one Arthur Ryno,
neighbor. On July IL he was arrested
for writing these letters, and his pre-
liminary hearing set for July %. When
his preliminary trial was called on July
% before Justice J. G. Whitney at
Galva the charge was dismissed and
Ryno was arrested on the straight
charge of assault with intent to kill, and
this was the charge al his present trial.
His preliminary hearing was set for Au-
gust l and he was released on a s., 900
cash bond. When August 1 came he
waived his preliminary hearing, and
Justice Whitney fixed his bond at $4,000.
This the defendant objected to, and ap-
