motionless staring at the jury after he
heard the verdict. Then one Of the

sat down. Apparently little affected
by the verdict, he was taken back to
the Queen county jail
In striking contrast to the demeanor
of the prisoner was the grief of his

Law" Was Given no
Consideration.

FLUSHING, N. Y, May 12.-Capt
Peter c. Hams. jr, U. S. A, faces a
prison term of from one to twenty
years. Despite all the testimony sub
mitted by the defense tending tofshow
insanity, he was convicted yesterday
of manslaughter in the first degree
for the killing of William E. Annis last
August.
Quickly following the army officers
conviction, his counsel announced
they would produce affidavits to show
that the jury had not been properly
guarded during the trial, and upon this
allegation will urge that new trial
be granted. These affidavits will be
submitted Monday the time set for
passing sentence and for any motion
the defendants counsel desires to
make. There will, of course, be the
usual motions to set aside the verdict
as against the weight of the eviednce
and contrary to law, but the unguard-
ed jury feature is the only departure
from a sterotyped procedure look
ing to new trial.

Hains Lawyers Complain.

Daniel OReilly, of the counsel for
the defense, said: "There was no evil
dence in this case to warrant verdict
of manslaughter. 1t should either
have been murder in the first degree
or acquittal on the ground of insan-
ity. The jurors were PERMITTED to
roam about the country in an auto
mobile and go right to the verge OF
the scene of the homicide. which is
clearly against the law. We will have
affidavits to prove that sucl is the
case, and, also, that the jurors we're
permitted to leave the jurisdiction OF
the county and have been on the gov
ernment property at Fo.s Totten, all
of which will be urged as ground
for setting aside the verdict"
The conviction of Hams, after the
jury had been out less than three
hours. came as a general surprise. 1t
had been expected tlat the jurors
would deliberate much longer and that
verdict of acquittal on the ground
of insanity, or disagreement, would
result.
