VAN HORN Is ON
TRIAL FOR ROBBERY
MAN WHO ESCAPED FROM JAIL
WITH FRANK DUNCAN is NOW
CHARGED WITH RIFLING THE
POCKET OF A DRUNKEN MAN.

In the Criminal Court yesterday JEFF
vanHorn, a white man, was tried for
robbery. The state concluded its evil
aence and the defense will introduce its
witnesses today.
VanHorn is charged with robbing a
young white man named William Funk
In a saloon at Ensey. The two were
friends and on the day on which the
robbery is said to have taken place they
were drinking together, going from one
Saloon to another. In his testimony yes
terday Funk admitted that he was so
drunk he did not know much about any
thing which occurred at the time.
VanHorn is one of the three men who
escaped from the county Jail January 20
with Frank Duncan. He was recaptured
a few days afterwards and was later in
dicted by the grand jury for escaping and
for assisting Duncan to escape.
In the trial yesterday William Funk
was the first witness. He testified that
he had been robbed by VanHorn of a ten
dollar gold piece, four silver dollars and
some small change in John Caretti's sa-
loon at Ensley. That he had known Van
Horn for two months and that the two
had been drinking together that day. He
said VanHorn pushed him down and ran
his hand In his pocket and took his
money. He was so drunk himself that
he lay for two hours where he fell and
finally admitted on cross examination that
he did not know whether VanHorn was
with him or not.
Chief of Police Camp of Ensley said
that he had arrested VanHorn and that
he found $3.50 in his pocket None OF
this money had ever been identified by
Funk or any of his relatives. VanHorr
had been drinking at the time.
Mr.. A. T. Disheroon testified that he
saw VanHorn go into Funk's pocket and
take his money. Funk was drunk but
was trying to keep him from doing it.
VanHorn was sober.
Mr.. L. B. Meeks and Mr.. Fred Malloch
both testified that they were eye wit
nesses of the occurrence, and said Van
Horn took the money. The latter is evil
GENTLY a gentleman of good eyesight for
he said he saw VanHorn take the money
out of Funk's pocket, although the wit
ness was 200 yards away from them al
the time He also testified that among
prosecuting witness Funk only claimed
that there was a ten dollar gold piece and
some silver in his pocket.
After the state concluded its evidence
court adjourned until this morning.

1--WE, the jury. find the defendant guilty
of murder in the first degree. and say he
shall suffer death. w. j. DANGAIX.
Foreman"
The foregoing verdict was rendered yes
terday in the case of Jim Webb, the ne
gro who was tried for the murder of Po-
liceman w. P. Walton on the night of
March Is. 1t seemed to be pleasant news
to Jim, who grinned and showed a row of
pearly teeth when the verdict was read
out by the clerk. He was sitting In the
cage where he had been for an hour, dur
ing which time the jury was considering
his case. He stuck a cigarette In his
mouth and appeared to enjoy the glances
which everyone in the courtroom turned
towards him.
After the verdict was announced, Judge
Dan A. Greene polled the jury; that is,
asked each member If 1t was his verdict.
They all answered yes, after which they
were excused and the defendant was led
"TheylI Hang Me-"
As he reached the Jail where he has been
confined in a cell and well guarded ever
since committing the crime, his fellow
prisoners to whom Jim Is doubtless per-
son of distinction, and who seemed great
" interested in his case. asked him what
the jury had done.
They'll hang me all right he said,
surveying the crowd of admiring darkies
In the jail.
The evidence in his case was concluded
Tuesday night, and all OF yesterday morn
ing was taken up with the arguments of
Solicitor H. p. Hef1n for the state and
Attorney r. l.. Leatherwood for the de-
tense. Judge Greene charged the jury
who retir ed to consider the case at $3.50
O'clock. end an hour later returned with
their verdict.
The crime for which Webb was convict
ed was the shooting and killing of
policeman who came to arrest him for
threatening The life of a negro named
John Brown. Brown came to Policeman
Walton who was the Oldest and one OF
the most highly esteemed officers on the
police force, and told him that Webb had
put pistol to his head and ordered him
out of his house. He asked the policeman
to go back with him and arrest him which
Mr.. Walton agreed to do. He and Brown
ane Mr.. c. E. Cochran, friend of Mr..
Walton all started towards Webbs
house. When they arrived there Brown
showed them the way through the hall
anc up to the door of webps ROOM.
Webb Shot Him Down.
Here Policeman Walton, who was
known to Webb, ordered him to open the
door, and on Webb paying no attention to
his order he shook the door by tho knob.
1t then flew open and Webb from the
inside of the room fired two shots at the
party, the second shot striking Policeman
Walton, from which wound he died in
| few moments.
Webb made his escape from the room by
climbing out of the window. Policeman
Walt on had fired opce before he was hit,
ard his shot had wounded Webb in the
arm. BY means of blood traces Webb was
finally located that night under a house
in the rear Of the house on Morris av-
enue, where The killing occurred, and was
there arrested He was indicted April Z.
His defe1se on the trial was that he
thought 1t was Brown who was trying
to enter his room, and he shot at him,
not knowing there YVES an officer pres
ent.
