found guilty, the jury celebrating fol-
three hours. Sentence was deferred.
The case has been one of great in.

the murder, and all through the pris-
oner, who was arrested Jan. 8 in a
Hartford boarding house and who had
concealed about his room several ar
ticles known TO have belonged to
boarders in the Kulas home, stoutly
maintained his innocence, claiming
that he was in Hartford all day OF the
date of the murder.
Sherrie was a former boarder at the
kulas home, and it was claimed muir
dered Mrs. Kulas by blows on the
head while she was washing dishes in

SHERIFF IN CONTROL.
Chicago at the Crisis OF
Transfers Strike.
MAYOR IN TOUCH WITH GOVERNOR
Constant Fighting In streets-Two
Thousand Deputy heriGs on Duty.
Next Step VIII BE Call For
Militia II Riots Continue.

CHICAGO, May 5.-Sherih Thoma
e. Barrett of Cook county has nov
taken active control of the strike situa
ton here. So much pressure wa
brought to bear on him and on Mayo
Dunno by business men who believe
their interests to be seriously imperil
ed by the constant rioting in the streets
that the sheriff has sworn in a larg,
force of deputies, and he is taking ac
tive steps to do away with the present
disorder. Two hundred extra deputy
sherlffs are on duty, and it is expect
ed that 1000 deputies in all will be OF
duty today.
A committee of prominent business
men, headed by John G. Shedd of Mar.
shall Field & Co., went to Springfield
to lay the situation before Governor
Deneen and to declare that in their
opinion conditions in Chicago were
such that the militia is imperatively
needed. The Chicago Clearing House
association has adopted sweeping res
olutions declaring that the riots in the
streets were constantly increasing in
fury and had gone beyond the civil
power Of the city and county to con.
troll. 1t was therefore the opinion OF
the members of the clearing house that
the state troops should be at once call
ed out.
Nineteen years ago the Haymarket

have killed three persons and seriously
wounded 1S4.
The actions Of the Haymarket riot
ers affected only a few. The lawless
acts of the striking transfers affect
100000 people and practically par
alyze Chicago's vast commerce.
The Haymarket riot led to the
prompt suppression forever of anarch.
lists organizations here. The city au
thorities, with 1000 policemen coping
with rioters, now fail to preserve peace
and restore order. Business men deny
the mayors assertion that he controls
the situation and demand that state
troops be sent here to suppress lawless-
ness and restore order. The entire city
Is at the mercy Of the lawless rabble,
and citizens are in constant fear of
loss of life and destruction of property
Notwithstanding pressure for troops,
Sheriff Barrett has determined to take
the situation in hand himself, declar-
ing that until he has done all he can he
will not be justified in calling for the
militia.
Mayor Dunno has had several confer.
nee with Governor Deneen over the
long distance telephone.
Sheriff Barrett last night said.
Il will not call for troops until l see
what can be done with the police and
