Goes to Asylum.
MINDEN, Neb. Sept. 22.-(Speclal Tele-
gram. .)-Arguments in the Elsam murder
trial commenced Thursday morning at 3
o'clock and consumed the day. Paulson,
county attorney, opened for the state, sol-
lowed by II. NJ Sinclair, NJ. d. King and
]. l.. McPheely for the defense. w. S.
Morian closed for the state 1t was a hotly
contested legal battle from beginning to
end The Jury was out ten hours and re-
turned verdict Of not guilty this morning
The defense was two-fold. First that the
defendant did not do the shooting: second
that he was insane. It was shown by tes-
timony of those acquainted with him and
by the best medical expert testimony that
he was insane.
Elsam married seventeen years ago, set
tied on a farm near Axtell. He was in
dustrious and worth about $4,000. They
lived a rather secluded life and had no
children. On the morning OF June this
year Elsam walked to Axtell through the
fields, called Banker Stewart up asked for
protection and told others he had commit
ted the crime, had shot his wife. The story
told by him did not agree with the facts
shown by circumstantial evidence Many
believe he did not kill his wife, but was
suffering from an insane delusion. He will
be taken before the Insanity board today
and adjudged insane, and viii be taken TO
the asylum tomorrow morning.
