JURY FINDS M'CUICAN GUILTY
Lawyers for the Prisoner Argue on Theory
of Self Defense,
THEY CONTEND MURPHY WAS AGGRESsOR
County Attorney Undertakes to ON
vince the Jurors that MoGuiEan
Drew the Knife, Expect
ing TO Do stRbbtnE.

The jury in the trial Of Thomas Michigan,
charged with first degree murder because
he stabbed John Patrick Murphy back OF
the left ear and in the left side the even
ing of February rs. brought in a verdict Of
guilty of murder in the second degree yes
terday afternoon.
The trial has occupied several days be-
fore Judge Estelle in district court and the
argument was begun and finished yesterday
forenoon. Attorney L. J. Piatti took the in
itiative for the defense and went over most
Of the ground, Attorney G.. W. Britt speak
ing only briefly to emphasize the import
ance of the evidence sustaining the theory
Of self-defense. Mr.. Piatti worked on the
theory that Murphy was the aggressor all
through the proceeding; that McGuigsn
did not leave the saloon while Murphy was
daring him to come, but remained several
minutes until he may have assumed, as
one of the witnesses said he himself had
assumed. that Murphy was gone from out
side the building.
Says McGuiRan IL in Danger.
Counsel argued also that the testimony
Of the states witnesses indicated that when
McGuigan left the saloon he left quietly
and leisurely; that when he got outside and
near the adjoining livery stable Murphy
eSsayed another attack such as ne mad
started to make twice inside the saloon;
and finally that If Murphy and McGuigan
were fighting up against a wagon and
Murphy's back turned toward the passersby,
as testified. Michigan must have been the
one who was in the hazardous position aud
getting the worst of it." Counsel urged
the jurors to draw their conclusion from
the states own testimony and consider
what they would have done had they been
in McGuigan's place.
Prosecuting Attorneys Talk.
County Attorney English and Deputy
Durham attacked this line Of defense with
vigor, maintaining hat a small rent in Nc
Guigan's shirt collar was about the only
tangible evidence in support of the self
defense theory. Attorney English took the
ground that Michigan had been angered by
the refusal OF the rest of those In the sa-
loon to drink with him and had determined
upon revenge; that he drew a knife from
his pocket while at the bar, deliberately
premeditating attack on Murphy; that he
muttered, "Ill fix him." while at the bar
and that he said again, 'Ill get him." as
he went through the door.
