Dallas, Or, June 16.-W. P.
Peacock was this evening found
guilty of the murder of Alex S.
Kerr in the first degree. The ver-
dict came as a surprise to the ma
jority of the people who witnessed
the trial.
The condemned man showed no
signs OF weakening when the ver-
dict was read, and maintained the
same cool Indifference that he has
all through the trial. Judge Bur-
nett has fixed next Friday as the
day on which sentence will be pro-
nouncsd.
Under the new state law, Peacock
will be executed in the penitentia-
ry.
Alexander S. Kerr was shot and
fatally wounded by w. P. Peacock
at Parker, five miles from INDIE
pendence, Or, May Is. No one
witnessed the shooting, and Lo
statement could be obtained from
Kerr before his death, which oc-
Cured soon after the shooting.
The breast, neck and facesssof the
victim were peppered with shot.
Kerr's brother married Peacock's
grandmother.

| Baker City, Or, June 13.-C. B.
Corder, manager of the American
Sheep. Shearing Company's plant.
II miles east of this city, was
caught in the fly wheel of the gas en-
seine this morning and instantly
killed.
Something went wrong with the
en- gine, and Mr.. Corder started back
to see what the trouble was. J. c.
| Gibson, the knife-grinder, was work
| Ing at his bench beside the engine,
and az there was scarcely room to
pass. Corder turned sideways TO
pass between Gibson and the en-
CINE when Corder's coattail caught
10 the main shaft of the engine.
The engine, an eight-horse power
gas engine, was running about 500
revolutions per minute.
Corder's body was drawn into the
aywheel and spun around with it,
his head and feet being dashed
against the ground at every turn.
Gibson was struck on the back by
the whirli9g body and driven under
the work bench, and for time was
unconscious.
One of the sheep.shearers, who
was about 25 feet away, was the
first to notice two accident, and he
ran to stop the engine, but did not
know how to shut off the gas. He
pulled Gibson from under the
bench, who by this time had regained
consciousness. He was barely able
to crawl to the engine and shut it
down.
The body of Corder was taken
from the fywheel, when it was
found that his head was crushed
and both arms and legs broken.
His head and feet had plowed out a
trench six inches deep in the hard
ground under the fywheel. Death
was instantaneous with the first
revolution of the body. Gibson was
seriously hurt. He is confined to
his bed, and the physician fears he
lis injured internally. He was
struck on the back either with
the head or feet Of Corder's body
when it made the first revolution.
/ Corder's home is in Lamar, Colo.
He leaves wife and boy 12years
old, both of whom were at the
.lsheep-shearing camp when the &C.
cident occurred.

for the purpose of shearing band

the sympathy of nearly every per-

Ellensburg, WASH, June 10
The greatest electrical storm ever
seen since the white man settled in
this region took place here last
night betwe n $3.50 and 1880, dur
ing which time there was brilliant
display of Lightning, the effect be-
ing beautiful. A remarkable fea-
ture of the storm was the almost
total lack of thunder to accompany
the lightning. A few very sharp
peals were heard, yet the air was SO
charged with electricity that the
electric light plant had to shut
down and SO many telephones were
burned out that the system was out
of business today. No other dam
age was done. A stiff breeze blew
during the storm, but it caused no
loss.

Ell ECIR IC ROAD SUED.

The Barre & Montpelier Power &

in the sum of $15, 1000. by Mary Ran
dali of Burlington. Papers were served
by Deputy Sheriff Fitzgerald on H. X.

She further alleges that on October II,

fendants cars. AT Fullerton avenue
she had the car stopped so that she
might get off, but before she could
do SO in safety, and while she was
still ON the platform, the car started
with jerk, throwing her to the pave
ment and severely injuring her. She
says that aside from bruises and other
injuries her nervous system was given
such a shock that she has not recov-
cred from it but has been ever since
the accident unable to work and at
tend to her affairs. She alleges that
she has already paid out $500 for medi-
Cal treatment as result. The attor-
| neys in the case are A. d. Billings of
Burlington and H. @. Shurtleff of
Montpelier.
