GIVEN A LONG TERM
AEURDERERS OF CHARLEY YIN GET
TWENTY-FIVE YEARS.
Special to The Globe,


WEST SUPERIOR, Wis, Feb 27.-
Peter Jackson and Charles Woods, both
colored, were today sentenced to terms
Of twenty-five years each in the superior
court by Judge Smith for the murder of
Charley Vim. They both pleaded guilty
to the charge of murder in the second
degree, and for that reason expected a
hghter sentence, but the judge stated
that ne GOULD see no reason for clemency,
and gave them the longest sentence pos
sible.
jackson has remained in the city ever
since the murder was committed, but
Woods left and went to St. Louis, where
he was captured by the police. When
questioned they broke down, and told the
story Of the crime. Each, however,
blames the other with striking the blows
which killed the Chinaman They said
that they had planned the crime a week
before it was committed, that they did
not intend to kill the Chinaman, but
merely TO rob him of his money. They
went to the door of the laundry and
found it locked. Giving the opium srnok-
ers' signal they were admitted by YIN.
According to Woods story, Jackson was
the only one who went in, while Woods
remained outside to watch As the China
man turned with his back partially to-
ward Jackson the latter struck him. Vim
screamed and he struck him again. This
time the Chinaman fell, and Jackson
struck him a third time. They were
then too frightened to search for money,
and fed from the laundry. They both
stayed on this side Of the bay that night,
and the next morning Woods went to
Duluth, and later to st. Paul, where he
was arrested. Jackson remained here un-
til he also was arrested.
Jackson's story is about the same, ex-
cept that he claims they both went into
the laundry, and that it was Woods who
had the gas pipe and who struck the
blows.
