He then discussed the plank in the Democratic

brook, shot and probably fatally
wounded NJ. NJ. Lowther. timekeeper
for the Denver & Rio Grande, in the
latter's apartments on Main street this
morning at 1890 o'clock The death
of Mr.. Lowther is hourly expected.
In the room at the time of the shoot
ing, when both men emptied their re-
volvers, was Mrs. Lowther, the pretty
young wife of the wounded man, to
whom, it is alleged, young Holbrook
has been paying attentions for some
time.
Although at least ten shots were
fired, only the one bullet which struck
Mr.. Lowther in the left groin took eff
feet. Holbrook was inside closet

DEFENDER OF PORT ARTHUR SEN.
TENcED TO DEATH BY
COURT-MARTIAL.
With PLEA FOR MERCY
FOUGHT WITH COURAGE, BUT
SURRENDERED BEFORE
WAS NECESSARY.

st. Petersburg. - General Stoessel
was condemned to death Thursday by
a military court for the surrender of
Port Arthur to the japanese.
General Fock, who commanded the
Fourth East Siberian division of Port
Arthur, was ordered reprimanded for
disciplinary offense which was not
connected with the surrender, and
General Smyrnoff, acting commander
of the fortress, and Major General
Reiss, chief of staff to General Stoessel,
were acquitted of the charges against
them for lack of proof.
The court recommended that the
death sentence upon Lieutenant Gen
eral Stoessel be commuted to ten years
Imprisonment in fortress, and that he
be excluded from the service.
General Voder, president of the
court, read the sentences amid tense
silence. BY a great effort Of self-con-
troll, General Stoessel maintained rigid,
soldier-like impassivity. General Smyr-
noff was seemingly unmoved, but there
We're tears in the eyes of General Reiss.
The sentence of death was pro-
nounced upon General Stoessel, "for
surrenderiHg the fortress before all
means of defense had been exhausted;
for failing to enforce his authority, and
for military misdemeanorS."
Commutation of the sentence was
asked on the ground that Port Arthur,
beset by overwhelming forces, de.
Tended itself under General Stoessel's
leadership with uneXampled stubborn.
ness and filed the world with aston
ishment at the heroic courage of its
garrisons; that several assaults had
been repulSed with tremendous losses
on the persistent enemy; that General
Stoessel throughout the siege had
maintained the heroic courage of the
defenders, and finally. that he had
taken energetic part in these cam
paigns."
Before the sentence was read meas
ures were taken to prevent demon
stration in favor of General Stoessel
by a number of the younger officers and
witnesses who were present. These
latter sent a dispatch to the empress
saying that they would humbly bear
testimony that General Stoessel was
the soul Cf the defense of Port Arthur;
that he had always encouraged and put
heart into the garrison, and that i'll
case of war they would wish to sesve
again under General Stoessel. They
asked the empress graciouSly to be-
speak from the emperor a full pardon.
There was a dramatic moment after
the reading of the sentence, when a
detachment of soldiers filed into the.
hall. The spectators, thinking that
they were about to seize General Stoes-
sci, displayed great excitement, several
women fainting. 1t developed, how
ever, that this was merely guard for
the dispersal of the court
General Stoessel, who was accompa-
MED by his son, was the object of a
sympathetic demonstration, friends
kissing and shaking him by the hand
as he left the court room leaning on
his sons shoulder
