 The above is the verdict of the jury in the coroner's investigation of the death of Frank Wensel. The jury were unable to state in their verdict which man fired the fatal shot.
 The coroner's jury vas aInpanneled on Friday afternoon and visited the remains at the hospital. The jury was composed of the following well known citizens: Fred Haas, c. R. Scott. W R. Dixon, E. F. Fisher, c. 4 Overlook and George Hardiker.
 The jury was brought before Judge Mcdonald this morning in the court room and all of the eye witnesses to the tragedy examined, as well as both of the principals in the tragedy.
 The Facts in the Case.
 The evidence submitted to the jury was very much the same as that which has heretofore been published. King Horton, the bartender, and Alex Dorsey, the negro. had had trouble and hot words. before the shooting took place. Dorsey at one time during she evening got a knife and cut at rtorton. while he was in the water closet. King then got his pistol and rne negro lett the kitchen where ne was employed and went away, max ing threats that he would get King yet and that no white man could run over him. King went to work behind Che bar In about twenty minutes Cne negro came back to the kitchen and had pistol in his pocket, and be gan looking for King. The kitchen door is some twelve feet from the entrance to the saloon and a passage way four feet wide leads from the one to the other. King saw the negro or was apprised of his presence and got his pistol and started back to meet ann half way Frank Wensel, the waiter. was in the kitchen getting an order. and the two men came to 4sether with pistols in hand and he Aas caught squarely between theL.. The negro. shielding himself behind the door facing the kitchen, fired the first shot and Horton followed imme diately with shot from his gun, lodging behind the partition on the farther side of the passage way. Ali the first shot Wensel went down. the 1lshes were scattered over the floor and he cried out that he was shot. The negro fired one and likely two shots and Horton fired two or three, Wensel was shot in the back, with a small caliber gun. which might have ceen either gun in use. The weight Of the testimony was that the first Ehot was fired from the negro's pistol and is the one which struck WeEsel tn the back, and caused his death but this was not proven to the sat isfaction of the jury.
 Alex Dorsey, the negro. was brought into court, but declined, on the ad wee of his lawyer, to make any state ment.
