Is Not Guilty of Murder of Baby
Left in Her Care.
Jury DeIibeFates Only Forty Minutes
Acquits I5-year-oId Girl and
Recommends Matteawan.

Carmel. \. Y, March &-After forty
minutes deiberation the jury in the case
of Jennie Burch, the fifteen-year-old girl
who poisoned a baby left in her care, re-
turned verdict Of Not guilty on ac-
count of being insane
Justice Mills Immediately committed the
girl 10 the State Asylum for the Criminal
Insane at Matteawan. In committing her
Justice Mills said:
The court hnGs that the evidence given
BY DR.. Granger. and from his own views.
that the discharge Of the prisoner would
be dangerous to the public at large, and
therefore orders her 20 be committed 10
the Matteawan asylum until her mind is
in such condition that it will be safe to
release her.
The case was finished to-day with the
examination of DR.. Granger. who testified
that he considered the girl irresponsible
at the time she committed the murder.
DR.. Granger said he thought the girl was
insane at the present time, and that it
would be dangerous to release her. In
talking TO him, the doctor, Jennie Burch
said that she knew il wasn't right to kin,
as specified in one of the Ten Command
tAiNl4tS' oilV Salu ttldA ehc Knew lntIn ALL
bat that she didn't think when she gave
the baby part of a peach coated with
stTychnine"
In summing up, Lawyer Dempsey, for
the defense, asked for straight-out acquit-
tai The district attorney asked for the
death penalty.
When the verdict was brought in, the
girl cried To a reporter she said she
would rather die than ne put in an insane
asylum She was alone in court when the
verdict was returned. Her grandfather,
Philip Burch. awaited the iury's finding
outside in the hallway.

COULD ELUDE THE GUARD.
Lieut.. LawrRsOn Says Darkness Fav.
Ored Soldiers at Brownsville.

/ OFeu SGl1hers at Brownsville.
| The examination of Lieut. George G
/ LawrasOn, who commanded Companv z
Twenty-ffth Infantry. at the time of the
Brownsville shooting, was continued dur
! ing the entire session of the Senate Mill
taFy Committee yesterday, much Of IL be-
ing devoted to the identification of rifle
numbers from the eompany's books. For
some of these guns it was found no re-
ceipts had been taken from the soldiers
by Quartermaster Sergeant BIaney. In
reply to questions by Senator Warner
Lieut.. Lawrason said the night of the
shooting was so dark that it would have
been possible for the soldiers TO do the
shooting. eIude the guard. scale the wall.
and reach the company by the time the
roll was called
He did not identify any of the men in
the line. but depended on their answers to
the roll call Some were without shoes
some without guns. and nearly half were
without ammunition. Contrary to The fes-
timony OF the negro soldiers, he heard no
bullets, and after the call to arms no
nring. The shooting, in his opinion. was
from high power rifles by from six 10
ten men.
Chairman Warren laid before the con,-
mittee the resolutions adopted by the
mass meeting of Brownsville citizens on
the list, requesting the committee 10
send a subcommittee to make a personal
investigation of the scene of the outrage
and give its people an opportunity to re-
fute the slander that had been cast on
the fair name of the town by some Of the
witnesses before the committee. Senator
Cuiberson also sent a telegram to the
same effect The committee will probably
take no action on the REQUESTS.
