The bonds of the others will be nxed
At a special session Of the court later.
The verdict accuses William Boyle
of killing John Davis, and Albert Bilat
Of killing Roscoe MCGEE.
The jury found that on the day OF
the riot an armed body Of men, about
ninety members of the Western FEEDER
alton of Miners, assembled at Victor,
pursuant to prearranged plan from
different parts of the country, and that
they were appointed special policemen
by Marshal O'Connell, but that they
were in fact an unlawful assemblage
or mob.
Before the riot, O'Connell was re-
moved from office by the mayor and
his deputies, and were ordered by the
sheriff to dispense. Notwithstanding
this order, about fifty of them starte'
a riot, when Alfred Miller, one of their
number, attempted to kill G. G. Ham
line, and during the shooting MCGEE
and Davis were killed and others
wounded. Marshal O'Connell is charged
with shooting ]. J. Horner in the back
1
during the riot.
The officers of the Western Fedora
ton of Miners are held responsible for
the crimes committed because of their
seditious and unlawful language.
Among those who, it is alleged, en-
couraged the crimes, are Charles II.
Meyer, W. D. Haywood, John c. Will
,ams and the members of the execu-
| tive board as thus constituted.
Immediately after the verdict was
read, information was filed against the
Western Federation of Miners and the
old executive committee.
Capiases for their arrest were placed
in the hands of the sheriff. Bond in
the case of the members of the execu-
tive committee was placed at $4,000.
The cases will be heard at the Sep
TENDER term of court.

St. Louis, July 2.-The fair manage
ment Friday paid in at the United
States subtreasury in st. Louis the
second installment of the $4,600,O 900
loan secured from the government
The amount of the payment was
$213, 092.15, and represents 40 per cent
of the receipts from admissions and
concessions between June Is and July
1, the latter date not included. This
covers a period of 13 days, as there
were two Sundays In the time. The
next payment is due July Is, and must
be at least 100000. Secretary Stevens
said Friday there was no question Of
its payment
Mr.. Stevens says he does not know
whether the payment to the govern
ment Friday included 40 per cent Of
the receipts from the intramural rail-
road. This railroad is owned by the
fair, and it is contended that its re-
ceipts do not come under the head of
receipts from either admissions or con-
cessions.
The payment indicates that the re-
ceipts of the fair from concessions and
admissions during the last 13 days of
June were 1923, 1890.
