MRS. BLACK is CONVICTED.

Found Guilty of the Murder of Her
Husband, Wealthy Farmer.
Bozeman, Mon, Feb. 14.-One of the
most sensational murder cases ever
tried in Montana was brought to a
close yesterday, when jury brought
in verdict of manslaughter against
Lucy s. Black. The defendant was
accused Of poisoning her husband,
John H. Black, with morphine and ar
senic between the 5th and 10th of
October last. The deceased was a
wealthy farmer, considerably older
than his wife, and it was charged that
she simply married him for his
money. The poisoning was slow, but
conclusive. The defense endeavored
to prove the deceased had died OF
ptomaine poisoning and the grept ter
part OF the testimony was expert, the
doctors and chemists testifying for
or against the defendant. Sentence
will be pronounced Saturday.

fullest possible measure Of self-gov-

maintaining protectorate over the
islands. He would prefer that this
government withdraw absolutely and
without condition from the archipelago
than that the present war should con-

fully prepared speech in support of his
amendment to reduce the tariff duties
upon Philippine products coming into
this country to so per cent of the
Dingley rates, maintaining that con-

masted schooner, the name Of which
has not been learned, was burned at
sea last night The fire, which was
plainly visible from here, started about
o'clock yesterday afternoon and
burned until after 9 o'clock. The
schooner came to a point about six
miles off shore in northeast direc-
tion from Cape May lighthouse during
Sunday night and was caught in the
icefields flowing out of Delaware bay.
AS soon as the crews of the lifesav-
ing stations saw the fire they manned
their yawls and attempted to go to
the rescue of the sailors on the schoon-
er, but it is believed from what can
be seen through glasses that the men
are in their small boats, floating
around in the ice. waiting for assist
ance.
No big craft which could have rem
dered assistance was seen within two
miles of the burning vessel. The ves
sci seems to be burned to the water
