JURY FINDS CHARGE
OF BIGAMY PROVED
LATE LOS ANGELES FIREMAN
DECLARED GUILTY
Nusser's Sister Faints on Hearing the
Verdlct-Efforts to Establish In
sanity as Defense Prove
UnaVaiIing

BAKERSFIELD. Dec. 10.-After be-
ing out an hour the jury in the case of
William Nusser, former Los Angeles
fireman, on trial before Judge Mahon
and charged with bigamy, returned a
verdict of guilty.
When the foreman of the jury read
the verdict Nusser's sister, who sat by
his side during the trial, gave a stifled
scream and tainted in the arms of her
brother.
Nusser was connected several times
with the Los Angeles fire department.
He was accused of committing several
forgeries and was discharged from the
service. His relatives settled the for
gerry complaints against him and he
was never prosecuted.
Some time ago he left his wife in
Los Angeles and came to Bakersfield,
where he married a girl living here.
The ceremony was performed by a
Catholic priest and Nusser gave him a
forged check for his services.
He returned to Los Angeles and was
arrested July "a on a charge of bigamy.
He was locked up in the city Jail at
that place pending the arrival of the
Bakersfield officers.
Immediately on being placed in the
Los Angeles jail he began to sham in
sanity and made two attempts to COM
nit suicide, once while in the bull
pen" and again when removed to the
receiving hospital for observation. The
latter attempt was made by twisting
the bedclothes in a rope and hanging
himself from the bars of the hospital
window.
His defense was insanity, and among
witnesses summoned by him were the
chief of the Los Angeles fire depart
ment, thirty-five firemen, nine patrol
men and a hospital nurse.
He will appear before Judge Mahon
for sentence

BISMARCK, N. D.. Dec. 10.-The

sidered one of the most fortunate in

railroad men.

could turn over and go down ten-foOt

is marvellous.
The train struck broken rail. The
engine got over safely. but the tender
went off the track, followed by the
baggage car and mail car. Their
couplings broke and the three day
coaches, two sleepers and an observa-
ton car, went down an em1ankment
into a deep snowdrift and turned over
without breaking a coupling.
The hard-packed snow saved the
train from destruction.
Four persons We're slightly injured
and many more were cut by broken
glass and bruised. Eight babies on
the train were not even scratched.
A preacher of Seattle was thrown
out of his berth and in his nightshirt
into the berth of three women, severely
bruising them.

The fire record Of 1907 shows that
little progress has been made toward
solving the problem Of the national
ash-heap.' On the contrary, condL
tions appear to have become more
acute. There was no great conhagra-
ton last year, yet with the exception
OF 1904 and 1905. when Baltimore and
San Francisco made their sensational
contributions to the record Of de-
struetion, the losses aggregated larger
than for any other year In the last
quarter Of a century. For this country
and Canada they we're over s2l5,670,-
600. This Is doubtless a surprise to
the public and an unpleasant exper.
fence for the insurance underwriters.
The fires in the big cities make the
most impression, but the fires in small
cities and towns, by their number,
swell the totals. Insurance Engineer
ing for this month publishes a three

From all parts OF Germany sharp
advances in the prices Of the necessi-
ties OF life. especially in foodstuffs and
in fodder for livestock, are reported.
The latter have been noticeable during
the last few weeks and are due, in
measure at least, to the unsatisfactory
crops OF the past year. The result is
a strong upward movement in the
priee Of all foodstuns. Meat is the
only exception. It shows a slight ten
denoy to lower prices. but is still
above the figures Of two years ago, and
the slightly lower prices of to-day are
perhaps due to the constant agitauons
for cheaper meat which have contln-
ued uninterruptedly for two years
past. In some instances municipali-
lles have gone into the butchering
business and have sold directly to tho
people, while in many places meat
prices have been fixed by municipal
enactment. Prices Of milk. butter and
other dairy products have advanced In
sympathy with the price Of fodder.
