of Assault With Intent to
Commit Manslaughter
JURY OUT ONLY TWO HOURS
Verdict is Reached After DeIiberation
of About an Hour, But Report is Not
Made to Court Until After Supper
Motion For New Trial Will Be Filed
-carmean Case Begun.

Guilty of assault with intent tc
commit manslaughter' is the verdict
of the jury in the case of the State
VS.. Thomas Gather. The verdict was
reached after about an hours delibera-
ton, but the jury did no. report to the
court until after supper. The verdict
found is the highest degree submitted,
altho the original Indictment charged
assault with intent to commit murder.
The fact that the jury at the first trial
returned a verdict of assault with in
tent to commit manslaughter controls
the present action.
A motion for new trial is already
being prepared, and Will be filed with
in the next three days. The usual
grounds, covering errors. will be
ruled 1t is likely the case will again
be appealed to the supreme court. pro-
viding, of course, the sentence should
be of character that would warrant
an appeal.
When the jury in thn last trial re-
turned a verdict of guilty Judge Burn
ham pronounced two years sem
tence In the penitentiary at hard Ia
Dor. While the maximum penalty for
the crime is five years, the court this
time will be governed by the first SEN
itence, and that will be the maximum
under the second conviction.

THE cARMEAN CASE.
Embezzlement Action Commenced
the District Court This Morning.

VIC D'SNttSk OO0TS Vu0 NtOTUtuAs
The case of state OF Iowa vs. N. A.
Carmean. charging embezzlement, was
begun in the district court this morn
ing. The opening statements were
made after the jury was drawn. and
the first witness for the state was T. I.
WATSON, as expert accountant In charge
OF the books OF the Rhoades- Carmean
Buggy Company under the provisions
of the United States bankruptcy law.
Mr.. WATSON was on the stand when tho
court took a recess for dinner, slnd did
not conclude until this afternoon. The
next witness was B. A. Rhoades, Sec
'etary of the company.
The state considers that 1t has a fair
y strong case against the defendant.
and the defense claims that conviction
under the Indictment cannot be had.
1t is understood that the defense Will
show that many business men dc, busi
ness daily by the same manner charged
in the indictment, that there WAS no
criminal intent in such methods, and
that the state would not have had any
ground for action If the buggy COM
pany had not become financially In
volved. The state, on the other hand.
will claim that Mr.. Carmean knew
that the company would soon be in
solvent, when the transaction was
made.
!. The crime charged against Mr. Car
mean is the embezzlement of s3s5.50,
the property of Roemer & Miller. a
buggy firm of Hampton. 1t is thought
the case VIII occupy at least two days.
The jury that Is listening to the evil
dence, is composed of the following:
C. L. Shewalter. Ezra Wallace, r. e. l..
