Officers Are Elated.

The officers are elated at the result
of the trial and claim to have inform7-
ton which, in connection with the re-
suit of the trial just over, will in III
probability lead to the apprehension OF
the other participants in the nold-ur
and the recovery of the money which
was stolen, and to those who have fol
lowed the case closely, Shorts arrest
and conviction is considered as fine
a piece of detective work as has beer
done in a long time.
Attorney Wooten this morning filed 2
notice for application for a new trial
and it is probable that the case will b5
taken into the supreme court before il
is finally decided Shorts father, it is
said. has sold his home in order tt
raise funds with which to defray tho
expenses of the trial.

REFUSED TO OBEY HIS ATTORNEY

Convicted by a jury on a charge
which in the eyes of the officers of the
law, leaves no doubt as to his conne,-
ton with the Great Northern train rob
berry, Lem Short has lost the indiffe.-
ence which has marked mis- demeanor
since his arrest, and this morning the
corridors of the county Jail rang with
MS denunclatons of Assistant Attor-
ney Vandeveer and the sneriff's depu-
ties who worked up the evidence now
against him. Ae ne was led into the
jail from the courtroom last evening
after hearing the jury pronounce MIN
guilty of the charge of stealing the
horse and wagon believed to have been
used by train robbers Short was firmly
admonished by n s attorney to keep his
mouth shut, and told that his friends
would stay by him, says the Seattle
Times
1t took the jury five hours to reach
an agreement as to Shorts guilt and
the verdict came as a climax to one of
the hardest fought criminal cases which
mas been tried in the courts of King
county for years. Shorts arrest was
hard work on the part of the sheriff's
office to run down the men who robbed
the Great Northern train at Moscow
Point on the evening of October 2.
Tried to Prove Abb.
One of the most valuable clews which
the officers had was the horse and wa
gon found near the scene the next
morning. 1t developed that this outfit
was stolen from Isaac Calhoune, q
rancher living near Kent, On Sunday
night previous to the robbery, which
was on Monday, and Short was arrest
ed for the theft, Deputy Sheriff Hills
and McKinnon locating him at Che
halls in November
Short attempted to prove an alib
and some forty witnesses We're called
to prove that he was at nome on the
night the rig was stolen. The state
also had large number of witnesses
several of whom testified to having
seen Snort in the wagon early Monday
morning.
The trial lasted a week and two days
and every point was bitterly contested
by the opposing attorneys. Deputy
Prosecuting Attorneys Vandeveer am
Miller, conducted the prosecution, the
defendant being represented by Wooten
