GUILTY OF MURDER.

New York, Mch. 81. - Albert 7.
Patrick, lawyer, was convicted last
evening of the murder of the elderly
millionaire recluse, William Rice, on
September %, 1900. The penalty, un-
der the statute, is death i'll the cleo
trio chair.
A scant three hours of deliberation
at the close of the trial, prolonged for
nine weeks and replete with sensa-
tional interest, sufficed to enable the
jury TO reach their verdict. The is
sue of the trial establishes the charge
that Patrick conspired with Rice's
valet, Charles f. Jones, to obtain pos
session of the Texans estate, estimat-
ed at ST. 600, 600 and that Jones killed
his employer by the administration of
chloroform at the direct instigation
of Patrick,

lciples which have governed us are 81
/ limpid simplicity. l have been criti-
ciZed for saying we considered the
Munroe doctrine and the golden rule
a sufficient basis of action. But why
should we not when the one had its
origin in heaven and the other in the
brain of a Harvard man? We have
sought in all things the interest and
honor of our own country. We have
never found this incompatible with the
due regard for the interests and honor
our neighbcrs with frankness ana

We owe it TO our past to be true to our
history; we owe it to our future not to be
false to our ideals. And this we shall
