DID NOT MOVE
Audience at the Gennett Remained
Seated After Last Act.

Considerable amusement was caus-
ed at the Gennett yesterday after
noon by the actions of the audience
after the last act of "Iris." The
programs which were received too
late in the afternoon, were not dis
tributed and consequently the ma
iority of the audience had no way of
telling how many acts We're to take
place The ending of the play is a
very peculiar one and the interest
of the audience in the play was so
great that after the curtain had
gone down on the last act the inter
ested spectators kept their seats
thinking that there was another act.
After about three minutes a num-
Der of representatives of the COM
pany walked into the auditorium and
informed the audience that the show
was over. The situation appealed to
number of the show people and a
hearty laugh was indulged in by all.

for the crime is from two to twenty
one years in the penitentiary. After
the verdict was read Gipe broke
down entirely and his means could
be heard over the entire court build
ing He carried on for some time,
but finally recomposed himself and
was led away to Jail to await sem

curse upon curse upon the entire
jury. A large crowd followed the
unfortunate man to the Jail, but no
demonstration Of any kind was made.
Soon after reaching the Jail Gipe
began to call loudly for whiskey. He
claimed the entire time that he was
innocent and that the jury had con-
victed an innocent man. Gipe's at
torney, w. A. Brown, said after the
finding that the jury's verdict was
a travesty on justice and that he
would file a motion for a new trial
in the morning on the grounds that
the verdict rendered was not in ac-
cordance with the evidence given.
On the first ballot in the jury room
the vote was evenly divided, six
men We're for acquittal and six for
conviction. On the second ballot the
vote was nine to three in favor of
conviction. The third and last bal
lot was unanimous in favor of con-
viction, the only controversy being
whether Gipe threw the bodies in the

attention Of the jury for some time.
The conviction of Haley Gipe is
the closing chapter of one OF the
most atrocious crimes that ever
blackened the annals Of Indiana his

JEANNE fowler
Presented Very Strong Play at The
Gennett.

Jeanne fowler, as Iris Bellamy in
the play "Iris' at the Gennett yes
terday made decided hit. The sup
porting company to Miss fowler was
fine and the play very strong one.
Although but fair audiences greeted
the show at both the afternoon and
evening performances, it deserved
much better patronage. The part
taken by Miss fowler is very diff
ficult one and the way in which she
renders the part places her as one
of the greatest emotional actresses
of the day. 1t is doubtful if any
show will come to Richmond this
year that is any stronger than that
of yesterday. Tt presented great
lesson of a woman's love and self
sacrifice and there is no doubt but
what it set a number of persons to
thinking who witnessed the per-
formance yesterday.

OF THE ACCIDENT THAT CAUS-
ED THE DEATH OF
Mr.. ALBERT SIEWEKE
Such is the Verdict of Coroner S. G.
Markley Just Rendered.

The Coroner of Wayne County,
DIR. S. C. Markley, yesterday render
ed his verdict in the death Of Albert
Sieweke, who was killed Tuesday
morning at the Thirteenth street
crossing of the Panhandle. DR.. Mar
kley, after describing the injuries
received, reports that in examining
the condition of the track where the
accident occurred, he found that the
ballast beneath frog just west of
the crossing was insufficient, causing
very noticeable cup and down"
movement when an engine passed ov-
er it, when the track was clear the
frog was found to be three-f fourths
of an inch lower than the guard
wings on each side. The end of the
inside guard wing was battered and
had the appearance of being recently
done. Two spikes holding the frog
to the ties were pulled out to the
extent of about an inch.
After reviewing the testimony tax
en-. the coroner renders the follow
ing verdict:
"The death Of Albert Sieweke was
from shock due to multiple injuries
the result of being crushed beneath
a P, c., c. & st. L. passenger en-
CINE at the Thirteenth street cross
ing in the city of Richmond. The
evidence shows that Sieweke, prev
ious to the accident was riding on the
pilot of the engine, and that as the
engine approached the crossing, the
pilot hit an obstruction which re.
suited in the wreeking of the pilo,
and throwing Sieweke beneath the
enoine.'

Columbus, Ohio, December 1.-The
special train occupied by Daniel G.
Reid and party from New York,
which left Richmond this afternoon
at 5 o'clock, was wrecked at Alton,
Ohio, this evening about $50. The
special was going at a good rate OF
rate of speed and ran into the end OF
freight train. The occupants Of the
special were considerably shaken, al
though no one is reported as having
been seriously injured. The persons
in the front coaches were thrown
from their chairs to the floor of the
car and otherwise shaken up. Two
persons on the freight train were
seriously, if not fatally injured.
Five cars of the freight train were
burned up by a fire which started
from the stove in the caboose. The
wreckage was soon cleared away and
the special proceeded on its way
East. Alton is a small place about
eight miles west of Columbus on the
Pennsylvania. No physicians were
summoned to the special when it
reached Columbus and a number of
the members of the party claimed
that no one had been seriously In
iured in the collision. 1t is under
stood that the cause Of the accident
was an open switch. The freight
train, which preceded the special had
orders to switch at Alton and wait
until it had passed. The freight
made the switch without accident,
but some one left the switch open
and when the special came along 1t
dashed into the freight. The engi-
neer on the special, when he felt his
engine leave the main track put on
the emergency brakes and in this
manner avoided a terrific collision.
Had he not done this it is likely that
a number of persons on the special
would have been seriously injured or
killed.
