PREUSSER NOT GUILTY.
The Jury Decides That He Was Insane When
He Shot Myies Mcdonnell.

UTICA, June 23.-Richard F. Preusseri
the Albany bucket shop operator, who shot
his friend, Myles Mcdonnell, to death in
the Ten Eyck Hotel, Albany, W years
ago. has escaped the electric chair and in
stead goes to the Matteawan State Hos
pital for the Criminal Insane, where he
will remain until he regains his mental
capacity, when he will be set free. The
Jury in his case so decided at 2:3o O'CLOCK
this afternoon after four hours delibera-
ton. On the first trial. a year ago IN AL
bany. the jury was unable to agres, stand
i ng II to 1 for conviction of mAder in the
second degree. =, So,
The verdict Of not guilty rendered by
the Jury was a shock to District Attorney
Addington OF Albany county, who had
looked for at least a verdict of second de-
gree murder or first degree ~manslaughter.
The prisoner himself and his attorneys
were visibly overcome when the verdict
was announced and for a few seconds ap-
peared dazed. Preusser has only one
hand, having lost the other in a railway
accident many years ago but he immedi-
ately got busy with the remaining hand
and for five minutes received the con.
gratulations OF those who crowded around
him. When orAer had been restored
Justice Rogers announced that on Monday
he would sentence Preusser to an institu-
ton for the insane, in accordance with the
terms Of the verdict.

his brother, who is engaged to Margaret
Thompson, went on his vacation last week
and told him to go to the Clarke home and
see that her step-grandfather didn't bother
her while he was away. .
Mrs. Clarke told me that her husband
was eccentric and to pay no attention to
him said DAILY. ~ he owns the house
will willingly leave"
Clarke produced a deed to the hous in
MS name and the Court advised DAILY that
the grandfather had the power to GUST him.
Judge, ! wish you would tell my step
grandfather to leave me alone, spoke up
The girl. He follows me around con-
unuaIIy and hides in the dark Railways in
the house. I'm liable to step on grandpa
almost any place in the dark"
The Court admonish9d Clarke to leave
