MoRTENsEN FOUND GUILTY.
Trial Lasted Six Weeks and Jury

Trial Lasted Six Weeks and Jury
Found Verdict in Three Hours.
Salt Lake, Utah, June 15.-The Jury
in the a s of Peter Mortensen, charg.
ed with the murder of James r. Hay,
on the night of December Is, 1901,
this afternoon at 8 o'clock returned q
verdict of guilty of murder in the first
degree.
Mortensen will be sentenced July 5,
and will choose between hanging and
shooting in expiration of his crime.
Hay, who was a neighbor of Moren-
sen, was secretary of the Pacific Lum-
Der company, of which Mortensen was
Indebted to the amount of 5 8 1900. On
December 6 Mortensen requested Hay
to call that night at his home, bring
q receipt and he would pay him.
Hay was not seen alive after calling
at Mortensens' house. Two days later
Hays body was found buried near
Mortensen's house. Hay had been
shot. Mortensen was arrested on sus-
picion. and in his pockets were found
a receipt for the money and an uncan-
celed note,
Mortensen claimed he had paid the
money to Hay in $40 gold pieces, but
told conflicting stories about it.
The trial began May 5, and it took
four weeks to get a jury, which was
secured only after an open venire had
been declared.
The testimony and argument lasted
two weeks, and the jury was out three
hours. The verdict was reached unan-
imously on the first ballot.
A feature Of the trial was the testi-
mony of Hays farther-in-law, James
Sharp, who claimed to have had a rev.
elation from God that Mortensen was
the murderer.

STANDS BY MONROE DOCTRINE
British Papers Praise Of the American
Principle.

London, June 15.-The speech Of
Sir Frederick Pollock, corpus profes
sor Of Jurisprudence, University of OK
ford, before the London Chamber OF
Commerce, Wednesday,, commencing
the Monroe doctrine, has caused inter.
esting and diverse expressions of opin.
ion from the Spectator and Saturday
Review.
The Spectator is delighted and urges
the state department ait Washington
to enunciate the doctrine clearly. as
then Great Britain could record it's
acquiescence expressing at the same
time its maintenance of British inter
est, adding: Such a course would
certainly be for the peace of the world
as we'll as for the peace of Canada and
u other American possessions. The
kaiser thinks now that he only has to
build enough ships to make the United
States e the ACCESSIBILITY of drop
ping the doctrine, SO far as South
America is concerned. That incentive
to protigate waste of the national re-
sources might~be withdrawn if the ac-
ton we suggest is taken.
The Americans, having got our ad-
hesion to the doctrine, might submit it
to Germany and the other great DOW
ers. If their answers were favorable,
a great our for future quarrels
would be automatically eliminated.
The two Americas would by the agree
ment, be ruled out of the field of DO
litical ambition.
II Germany and the others powers
would not join in asserting, the Amer
icas would at any rate know where
they stood. 4
The Saturday Review, on the other
hand, denounces Sir Frederick Pollock
and declares his speech to be one of
the lowest defenses of what it main
tains to be pure aggression on the
part OF America, in which a defensive
does not figure.
1T MEANS" concludes the Saturday
"that all America is for the
United States We might as well
say: 1t is hereby declared that all
islands of the world belong to
Great Britain"

SCHWAB'S CHARITY PLANS.
Real Purpose of Steel Kings Pur-
chase of Richmond beach,, 8. /.

So many gutYses We're made regard
Ing the plans of Charles NJ. Schwab,
president of the United States Steel
corporation, for the disposition of the
property known as Richmond beach,
Staten Island, which he recently pur-
chased, that Mr.. Schwab the other day
decided to settle the question.
Il have purchased it, said Mr..
SchWab to a reEc:..@r e the New York
Times, "for the benefit of poor and
sick children Of New York. The land
comprises about a quarter Of a mile
of fine beach: also a fine fresh water
lake, a grove and Li.h land reaching
back to the Richmond road.
"The improvements en- the property
at present consis; Of Il farmhouse. pa
vilions OIL tho occ;,.: shore, Eagodas and
a large stealth at Ter. These build
ings will be altered to suit the purposes;
of the purchase after consultation with
charitable institutions Of New York. 1t
is expected that from LEGO to 1000
children daily can be provided for at
the beach, and a good time will be
given TO them by means of bathing,
boating on tic lake, rides On donkeys
and games. =
'The children will be conveyed to the
beach probably on a large steamer.
Every child will receive a good dinner.
Mrs. Schwab is interested with me in
this undertaking. We shall proceed
carefully, availing ourselves of the ex-
perience of charitable organizations.
There are no marshes near this beach.
and | regard it as one Of the finest
properties for the purpose that could
be purchased anywhere. 1t gets the
full sweep Of the ocean breezes across
the lower bay, and to get there the
children will have the benefit of a 4ne
sail Of an hour or more.'

sHusTER,s MEN WAVE ANOTHER
CORY SCALP.
OLD SCORE IS WIPED OUT
Red Lodge Compelled to Lower Its
coIors to Ancient Enemy
Almost a Shutout.
] From Mondays Daily Gazette.

The Red Lodge baseball team, &C
companied by a brass band and 200
rooters, came to town yesterday morn.
ing enthusiastic in anticipation OF
adding n more to their long string
of victories over the Billings ball
team. They went home in the even
ing with ardor somewhat dampened,
but confident still that another trial
will bring a different result.
The Billings-Red Lodge games are
always the features of the ball season
in the two towns. For years an in
tense, but sportsmanlike rivalry has
existed between them and the mere
announcement that those teams are
to play insures a crowded grand
stand. y, -
Over 1000 people were out yester-
day and the way the rooters for the
opposing teams wed with each other
in noise producing was, perhaps, never
equaled in Billings. The game was
exciting throughout, fast plays by both
teams giving their respective adher-
ants many opportunities to exercise
their vocal chords. Several close
plays made it hard for the umpires,
Baker voluntarily retired after one
inning of strenuous indicating, when
Griffith took his place. Up to the
seventh it looked as if the coat of
whitewash administered to Livingston
was to be repeated. Harker was pitch
ing m~agnifcently and was backed up
in league style. Some timely stick
ing, heady base running and a few
Red Lodge fumbles had given the
home team five runs. In the seventh,
however, a hit and an error gave the
visitors n run to which was added
another in the ninth on the secon
hit made off Harker and a wild throw;
making the final score 5 to 2 in Bill
ings' favor. Summary:

Cost Of Martinique Horror to Pane.

Cost of Martinique Horror to Papers.
The public las no conception at all
what the Martinique disaster is cost.
Ing the newspapers, says the New York
Herald. The average man pays little
attention to the special cable" line
and reads the stirring news without a
thought as to the cost of it. When it
is known that cable messages from
Fort-de- France cost So 10 a word and
urgent messages S6.45 for every word,
some conception can be had of the cost
of covering this calamity. But that is
not all. There are the tugs, the special
men and the photographers. All this
mounts into the thousands. but after
all the big papers in New York feel
that it is worth it, and nc expense has
been spared to get this immense story.
