NO PREyUDICE' THERE.

Surprise has been generally expressed
at the conviction of the man Gallehugh,
Just tried for killing a negro in Mime
apoIis. ct was believed that the trial
would result in acquittal, and that
different measure of judgment would
probably have been meted out to the
slayer of a coIored man than might be
expected to issue against the white slay-
er Of one of his own race.
There is an effort being made to ex-
plain this verdict on the assumption that
the jury were fearful, if they gave a
verdict of acquittal, of being charged
with prejudice against the colored people.
This is hardly a reasonable view The
jury was composed of intelligent men.
They gave close attention to the evidence.
They deliberat ted long and conscientiously
on the question before them, and they
reached a conclusion which, so far as
can be judged by the extended reports of
the trial which have been made by the
local press, was fully warranted by the
testimony. If they had given verdict of
acquittaI there might have been sub
stantial reason for the belief.
The killing was evidently in cold blood
Whatever indignity may have been done
to the wife of the accused, if any mad
been done, was something of an old
story. There was no haste, no outburst
Of indignation. The shot was fired while
the man was proceeding about his
business and some time after the accused
had entered the place of employment of
his wife and his victim.
1t was incumbent on the defense under
all the circumstances to produce the knife
which it claimed was in the hand Of the
man when he was killed. No one
saw it, and no one testified to having seen
it, but the accused and his wife 1t is re-
markable, to say the least. that persons
in so serious a predicament would have
neglected even during the prevailing ex-
which lay at their hand A plea of self
defense made under such circumstances
doss not seem to be a particularly strong
peg on which to hang a defendant's safe
ty.
So far as any consideration of color
entered at all into the action of the jury
that case, it is quite plain that it did
not operate to prevent full and ample
justice, as the jury saw it, from being
meted out to black and white alike.

DIED FROM POISONING
MINNEAPOLIS BARTENDER TOOK
FATAL DOSE OF MORPHINE
Lay All Day Thursday in Room at
Avon Hotel, Proprietor Believing
Him to Re DrunI-NOt known
Whether He Committed Suicide
or Took the Drug by Mistake.

Nicholas Thomas, bartender living at
40 Seventh street south Minneapolis
died at $3.50 yesterday morning in the
city hospital of morphine poisoning
Whether it was a case of suicide or TAX
ing an overdose of the drug is not
known. He was removed from the Avon
hotel Ninth and Wabasha, in the central
station patrol wagon, and died in the
hospital twenty minutes after his ar
rival.
From the outset the case looked like
one of morphine poisoning. An ordinary
drinking glass containing morphine was
found on the table beside the bed of the
dead man, which contained enough NOR
prime to kill a half dozen other people
Coroner Miller found quantities Of the
drug in different parts of the room An
empty champagne bottle stood beside the
glass containing the morphine, and it is
probable that Thomas washed down the
poison with the wine. Coroner Miller
ordered an investigation, and the city
hospital physicians decided that death
was due to an over dose of morphine
Thomas came to the Avon hotel 3
O'Clock Thursday morning Mrs. Tate
the wife of the proprietor admitted him
and showed him up to his room. He left
call for o'clock The man in the next
room also left the same call and Mrs
Tate raped on both doors at that hour
she received an answer from Thomas,
and the occupant of the other room came
down stairs shortly. Thomas did not an
pear, however, and at noon Mrs Tate
went to his room to see if he wanted TO
get up.
Thought He Was Drunk.
Thomas was apparently asIeen and
muttering. Mrs. Tate felt his head and
found 1t hot and moist She then went

payne bottle thought Thomas was drunk
He told his wife to let him sIeen II off
and that he would get up when ready
