Santo Domingo. In her turn, has now
made an appeal to us to help her. and not
only every principle OF wisdom, but every
generous instinct within US bids US respond
to the appeal. It Is not Of the slightest
consequence whether we grant the aid need
ed by Santo Domingo as an incident to the
wise development of tho Monroe doctrine.
or because we regard the case Of santo Do
,ningo as standing wholly by itself. and to
be treated as such, and not on general
principles or with any reference TO the
Monroe doctrine. The important point is to
give the needed aid. and the case Is cer-

recess was taken until two o'clock,
and the court suggested that the at
torneys be on hand at that time.
The defendant accompanied the sheriff
to the county Jail, where he had his
first meal.
Koch Is Hopeful.
DIR. Koch asked to be confined alone
|if possible, and Sheriff Williams gave
him the second floor of the Jail, with
the corridor to exercise in. When seen
there this afternoon by The Free Press,
he had no more to say than hereto
fore, stating that he was under the in
structions of his attorneys to say moth
ing, for if he said anything it was apt
to be twisted.
DIR. Koch said that he hoped for an
acquittal. He thought that the case
had been presented to the jury in bet
ter shape for him than at the New Ulm
trial, as the mail clerks had shown
that the box could not have been mail
ed as claimed by the state. After the
jury has been discharged, he expects to
return to New Ulm and reopen his Of
flee and carry on his dental business.
This afternoon the defendant was
brought into court while the exhibits
to be given to the jury were being Sc.
lected.
The exhibits given to the jury We're
the plats, handkerchiefs, hammers,
samples of writing and typewriting,
railway stamps, pencil, photographs of
Ottomeyer block, etc. A magniiying
glass was sent in, also.
Foreman Selected.
The jury selected H. w. Wilcox as
foreman. 1t requested that portion of
the courts charge be given it for use
in its room, but the court instructed
Mr.. Wilcox that this was not possible.
If the jury could not agree among
themselves as to the charge, after dis
cussion, it could come into the court
room and listen to the reading of such
portions of the charge as it could not
understand.
The court took recess until Mon
day at 9 a. m.

Not All Facts Enumerated.

have not attempted by any means
to detail to you all of the facts and
circumstances which the evidence in this
case tends to prove. There are very
many other facts and circumstances
which the evidence in this case tends
to prove, bearing with more or less
force upon the important question of
the guilt or innocence of the defendant
now on trial before you, all of which
evidence you should as carefully con-
slider and weigh, as if your attention
had been by the court expressly direct
ed to it. Your own memories should be
at least equally as reliable as mine,
and you should allow no part of the
evidence before you to be forgotten,
overlooked, or passed lightly by, wheth
er it argues for the defendants guilt,
or for his innocence.
While the evidence introduced tends
to prove the facts which | have briefly
enumerated, whether it does prove any
of the facts which it tends to prove, or
what it does in fact prove, if anything,
is question for the jury alone to de-
termine, without any suggestion or in
timation from the court, or from any
source whatever, other than the evil
dence introduced in the case
You have heard all of the testimony,

inence to some parts of the testimony
than to other parts of it, and thereby

or to the other side. To review the
evidence, and determine the facts, is a

what is proved, and what is not.
No person can be convicted of murder,
unless the death of the person alleged
to have been killed, is established as

the evidence beyond reasonable doubt.

The killing of human being, unless
it is excusable or justifiable, is murder
in the first degree, wnen perpetrated
with premeditated design to effect the
death of the person killed, or of anoth

Homicide is excusable when commit

ing any lawful act, by lawful means,

unlawful intent

to apprehend a design on the part of
the person slain to commit felony,
or to do some great personal injury to
the slayer, or to any such person, and
there is imminent danger of such design

sistance of an attempt to commit a
felony upon the slayer, in his presence,

In the investigation of criminal
charges it is usual to inquire wheth-
er, at the time in question, the accused
person had any motive to commit the
crime which he is charged with having
committed; because, ordinarily, human
beings are impelled to act by some
known or secret motive; and in this
case, it is the duty of the jury to con-
slider, whether, under all of the evidence
in the case, it appears that the defend
ant did, or did not, have a motive for
the commission of the crime charged
against him. The careful consideration
of this question will materially aid you
to determine the question of the guilt
or innocence of the defendant
If motive is shown to exist, it is a
circumstance to be considered by the
jury, with all other circumstances, in
determining the guilt or innocence of

Koch Remanded to Jail.
Just before the court took it's noon
recess, Gen. Childs arose and moved,
on behalf of the state, that the defend
ant be placed in the custody of the
sheriff.
The court remarked that he supposed
that the defense would not have any
| serious objections to that, and asked
if they had.
Mr.. Brown said that they had no SER
ious objections, but he did not think
that it was necessary, as the defendant
would remain in the city and be ON
hand whenever wanted.
Judge Cray said that perhaps it
would be best to have the defendant
placed in the custody of the sheriff, and
he so ordered. He said that the time
that the jury would lie out would not
be very long in any event. 1t was alb
solutely necessary that he be on hand
when wanted.
Mr.. Clark said that they would not
like to have the order made so broad as
to vacate the bond. The court replied
that it had not made it so broad, but
