BAY STATE REPUBLICANS.
Preponderance of Sentiment In Fa-
vor of Protection.

Preponderance of Sentiment In Fa-
vor of Protection.
The Republican state convention was
a splendid and significant gathering.
1t was one Of the largest on record,
with 1903 delegates in attendance out
of a possible 1919.
The most interesting single incident
was the treatment accorded Mr. Eugene
N. Foss and his resolution regarding
reciprocity with Canada. The conven-
ton greeted Mr.. Foss cordially when
he arose to speak and listened respect
fully to what he had to say, but after
he was through and Senator Lodge had
made his brilliant reply the conven
ton voted down Mr.. Foss resolution
with so close an approach to unanimity
that the votes on the other side were
scarcely audible. The ballot for dele
gates at large disclosed only 178 votes
for Mr.. Foss out of total of 1900.
This was not very impressive ex-
hibit for an agitation which has been
so DANGEROUSLY conducted. But the
Republicans of Massachusetts know
perfectly well that the Foss reciprocity
movement has been nursed by agencies
which are hostile to the Republican
party and to the protective system.
The vague and misleading character of
this movement is hit off in phrase in
the platform which observes that mo
administration and no party can legis-
late or negotiate a mere catchword in
to substance" And Attorney General
Parker expressed the exact truth when,
speaking Of revisions of the tariff,
he said, 1.-THE knife of the surgeon
should not be intrusted to the operator
who has murder in his heart Boston

CONVICTED
OF MURDER
The Jury Finds Mrs. Taylor
Guilty Of Killing Her
Husband.
A LIFE SENTENCED IMPOSED

Monticello NJ X, May 27-After six
hours elaboration the jury in the Tay-
lor murder trial late last night an
nounced that they had agreed upon a
verdict Of guilty.
In what degree?r asked Judge Her
rick.
aOf murder in the second degree, z
answered the foreman.
Not a person in the crowded court
room moved Kate Taylor, as pale as
death, stared at the Judge. Judge Her
rick took the written verdict of the
jury and read it. We find Kate Tay-
Tor guilty of the mufiler Of Lafayette
Taylor in the second degree"
"Stand up, Mrs Taylor commanded
the judge. Mrs. Taylor stood up. The
oath was then administered to the
prisoner. Have you anything to say
why the sentence Of the court should
not be passed upon your" asked Judge
Herrick.
Mrs. Taylor Declares Innocence.
Eyes, sir. / have. / say am not
guilty. replied Mrs. Taylor, who pro-
ceeded to say that her daughter had
been threatened with being put in Jail
if she did not give evidence for the.
prosecution. The killing of Taylor, the
woman said, was an accident.
Is that all you wish to say?v asked
the court
Eyes. The defendant moves to set
aside the verdict of the jury as con-
trary to the evidence and contrary to
law" said John d. Lyons, Mrs. Tay-
lors attorney.
'sThe court denies the notion" re
piled Judge Herrick. Kate Taylor,
the sentence Of the court is that you
be conveyed to the Auburn state pris-
On and be there confined for the re-
mainder of your natural life
Mrs. Taylor started forward and
then sank back into her chair beside
her COUNSEL.
You may remove the prisoner" said
Judge Herrick. Mrs Taylor was taken
back to her cell. She was weeping.
Bring Peter Yerkins into court I
said the judge.
Yerkins came in few minutes later.
He is a small and inoffensiye looking
man. His cheeks We're pale and sunk
en- from his long confinement He has
been in the Monticello jail since March
3. 1908, when he was arrested, charged
with having influenced Kate Taylor to
murder her husband.
Yerkins Set Free.
81 advise the district attorney to dis
miss the complaint against Peter Yer
kins for the present and release him
upon his own recognizance. At some
future time, IL thought necessary, he
may be tried This case has been an
expensive one, and | do not think II
necessary to continue it,
.sThis is agreeable to me" said the
district attorney.
Judge HerriclS turned to Yerkins and
said, "You are free man until the
district attorney may think it neces-
sary to bring you before the court II
that time shall ever arrive"
Yerkins stood with bowed head. He
was speechless and the perspiration
dropped from his face He was free
man, not knowing where to go or what
to do. His property is all gone, and
he has no home. 1t is not probable
that he will ever be tried for his sup
posed connection with the murder of
Taylcr.
