East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1907-10-03

That George Horseman was not
justified when he fired the shot that
killed Clarence McBroom last May
was declared this morning by the jury
in the Horseman case when It return
ed the above verdict shortly after 3
o'clock.
Not only was Horseman held to be
guilty OF a crime, but during II bal
lots two men stood steadfastly for
confiction Of murder in the second
degree. On the first ballot the vote
stood two for second deree, five for
manslaughter and five for not gull
ty. However those who had voted
for acQuittal explained to their fell
low Jurors that they did not really
favor such a verdict but had voted so
while they meditated upon the de-
gree Of guilt.
After the first ballot these men
gradually changed their votes and
upon the fifth ballot the voting was
10 for manslaughter and two for Sec
ond degree. This was the situation
when the jury retired for the night
at 1890, after having taken nine bal.
lots. This morning voting was re-
sumed at an early hour and upon
the 18th ballot the result was unani-
nous for manslaughter.
The above statement as TO the
iury's attitude was given TO the East
Oregonian this morning by Foreman
]. II. Saylor after a caucus with sew
eral members of the jury. BY mu-
tual consent IT was agreed by the IL
men to disclose nothing regarding the
way In which the individual jurors
voted.
Ready at O'Clock.
Shortly after court had convened
this morning Bailiff Blair reported
to Judge Bean that the jury was ready
to report. However, at that time
the court was setting dates for fu-
ture trials and no haste was taken
in bringing in the jury. After a few
minutes the defendant was sent for
and accompanied by Deputy Sheriff
Wilson he entered the room and took
his customary seat, looking worn and
nervous.
AS the jury filed into the court
room led by j. B. Saylor, 1t was no.
ticed that no one carried a paper In
his hand and this led TO the belief
that no agreement had been reached.
Rut when the court asked If a ver-
dict had been agreed upon Mr. Say
lor answered IN the affirmative and
produced the verdict from his inside
coat pocket.
AS the verdict of manslaughter was
read Horseman sat perfectly still and
he made no sign to show his feelings
though his nervousness subsided and
he sat with a more worried look.
Judge Fee showed greater evidence
of disappointment over the verdict
than did his client.
After the verdict had been duly
entered Judge Bean informed the
Jurors that they were excused and
that they would not be needed fur
ther until next Monday morning, as
the court was to make trip to Hepp-
ner in the meantime.
Tuesday morning. October s, was
then set by Judge Bean as time for
passing sentence upon Horseman and
in behalf Of the defendant Judge Fee
asked until that time in which to file
a motion for a new trial.

Publishers Pressl

st. Petersburg, Jan. A general
search Of lodgings of persons under
police observation was made in the
hope of discovering accomplices of the
assassin who killed the project of po-
lice, Won Der Launitz. Many arrests
were made, but so far as known, no
important Terrorists were captured.
= The man who killed the project is
not yet identified. The persons con-
demned to death by the Terrorists are
reported to include Grand Duke Mich
olas, Premier Stolypin and two con-
sentative members Of the cabinet who
lately received letters of warning.
The assassination of Won Der Lau-
nitz caused a powerful impression,
both in the press and among the pub
lie. The newspapers comment on the
inability of the project OF police TO
protect his own person against the at
tack of a single resolute Terrorist
who undertook the task with a firm de-
Termination not to be taken alive, and
the papers ask how long time will
elapse before still more prominent
personages are stricken by Terrorist
bullets. The press unites in demand
ing protection against the regime OF
assassination inaugurated by reaction
lists as well as by Terrorists.

Publishers PressJ

Berlin, Jan. at Is said that Kaiser
William is in deadly fear of assassi-
nation and is surrounding himself
with a guard as formidable as that by
which Gar Nicholas is protected. The
bitterness caused by the present cleo
toral campaign in Germany and the
trouble in Poland, where the govern
ment has dealt ruthlessly with Polish
Nationalist, are responsible for the
fears entertained by the German ruler.
To insure himself against attack the
kaiser had the guards about him
more than doubled, and in the last few
days so additional police officers were
established in the palace. II is also
reported that Kaiser William and the
Crown Prince Frederick William are
no longer on speaking terms. The
trouble followed a serious quarrel over
the colonial office exposures. The
crown prince demanded that there
should be punishment for every guilty
person. The kaiser would not agree.
Then followed bitter quarrel.
