JURY'S VERDICT

eve, the jury, find the said John
Atcherley to be of sound mind'' That
was the verdict returned by jury in
Judge Lindsay's department of the
ing, ten minutes after they had ad
journed to the jury room. There was
ton of Atcherley's sanity among the
jurors. This verdict brought the Atch.
erley case to an end and sent the
physician and bis wife from the court
room rejoicing.
The arguments of Attorney Magoon
for the defense and Cathcart for the
prosecution consumed the entire after
noon. In his argument Magoon enter
ed into lengthy arraignment of what
he termed a conspiracy to send per
fectly sane man to the asylum. He
attacked the methods of DIR. Wayson
and declared Wayson's violation of
professional secrets was sufficient ex-
PLANTATION of Atcherley's attempt TO
kill him. According to Magoon the
proper course to have been pursued
IN the case of Atcherley would have
been to prosecute the physician on a
criminal charge and the very fact that
such prosecution was abandoned in
favor of the insanity accusation, Ma
COON said, was enough to show the III
terror motives behind the prosecution.
Magoon did not attempt to palliate
Atcherley's gunplay in which he turn
ed fusillade of bullets on the home
of DR.. Wayson, Magoon said everyone
was inclined to do foolish things
at some time of this life, but if such
an act made a man insane the asylums
would have many sane persons within
their confines.
Attacks Wayson.
Magoon said that the testimony in
the case showed that Atcheriey had no
illusion as to the alleged persecution
of him by DR.. Wayson-that it was a
fact and was oecasioned by a variety
of causes chief of which was that DR..
Atcherley had become possessed of a
remedy that went far to remove the
symptoms of leprosy. Magoon attacked
what he termed the deliberate falsifi-
cation of DIR. Wayson and said that
Wayson had shown his animosity in
many ways and cited the statements of
Mark P Robinson, President of the
/ Board of Health, to prove it.
The courtroom was thronged with
the curious when the jury filed in with
its verdict. When Judge Lindsay said
'sLet the prisoner be discharged,
there was applause and the Ateherleys
hurried over to thank the members OF
! the jury.

THE HUNTERS EXPLANATION
Of His Failure to Return to
Etah After Cooks Things
Beside He Couldn't For
see the Importance They
Have Attained.

New York, Sept. 29.-The following
dispatch was received by the AssO-
ciated Press tonight from Harry Whit
ney, who arrived at st. Johns, y. F,
yesterday by the schooner JEANNE on
his way home: so many questions
are being asked me by different papers
that have decided to make the fol-
lowing statement through the Asso-
ciated Press:
MY reasons for not going back to
Etah after Dr. Cooks things was that
the engines of the Jeannie, one of the
smallest boats that ever went to the
Arctic, were not working satisfactorily.
and we were depending partly on sails.
which later we had to do entirely.
There was no reason why the
Jeannie could not have gone back. but
not knowing that Cooks things left
with me were of such Importance as
they have since turned out to be- 1
did not return. In addition, l had
promised the Eskimos who were with
me after muskoxen in Ellsmereland
certain things which l expected on the
ship coming for me, but they were not
aboard the Jeannie and did not want
to return and disappoint them.
Il do not believe either DR. Cook or
Peary if placed in my position would
have done any differently than l did.
nor would they, having started south
for civilization, have turned back. / had
never seen DIR. Cook until met him in
the Arctic. He told me he had been
to the pole, and l was pledged not to
reveal this fact to Peary, but l could
say that he had gone farther north
than Peary in 1906. Peary, to my
knowledge, knew absolutely nothing
about what had been left with mt by
Cook. except that 1 mentioned instru-
ments, clothes and furs. and also a
marwhal horn. Cooks belongings left
in my charge were placed in boxes.
which were nailed up. Then saw the
Eskimos cover them with rocks.
No one could have been kinder to
me or shown me more consideration
than Peary did while l was on the
Roosevelt. and he said he would be
glad to have me remain aboard and
return with him, instead of going on

come to grief was an Apperson. driven
by Herbert Lyttle, with whom was his
mechanic. James Bates. The car
swerved sharply in turning two miles
west of Mattituck, and crashed into
a telegraph pole, hurting both men
out.
Bates was picked up unconscious and
died an hour later. Lyttel, who is a
driver of international reputation. was
removed to a farm house in an uncon-
scious condition, but an examination
revealed that though he had suffered
internal injuries, his recovery was
probable.
A feature of the race was the re-
markably fast time made by the cars
entered all of which were ordinary
stock machines. One of the sixteen
starters, the prize for the fastest aver
age went to Louis Chevrolet, who drove
a Buick car at an average speed of 20
miles an hour. Chevrolet covered 113

Palma who covered the 227.5 miles in

|WR|GHTs PERFORMANCE.
Closely Seconded BY Cur
tiss- Miserable Failure of
Balloons Which Started
in the New York to AL
bany Race

New York. Sept. 29-Wilbur
Wright circled the great Statue of
Liberty at the entrance of New York
harbor in his aeroplane today, while
in the upper part of the city two
huge dirigible balloons failed inglo-
riously in their task. This, the first
day OF flights of the Hudson Fulton
celebration, was a victory for the
heavier than air machine. Both
Wright and Glen II. Curtiss scared
successfully from the aerodrome on
Governors Island in their motor pro-
PEELED bi-planes. The two great dir
igibles. manned respectively by
Thomas Baldwin and George L. Tom
linson, and entered in the New York
Worlds $4,000 New York to Albany
race, were forced TO descend before
they were well under way because of
mechanical difficulties.
Wilbur Wright made three success
full flights and Curtiss made one brief
though successful test, a spin OF
thirty seconds duration. Baldwin
with his dirigible landed in the Hud-
son river less than an hour after the
start. while Tomlinson, after remain
ing in the air from 1886 a m. until
1880 p. m, came down near White
the starting point. Neither of the
dirigible pilots was injured, nor was
the craft seriously damaged The
Wright machine showed greater
speed than that of Curtiss, but the
Curtiss flyer seemed TO keep its equ-
librium better and remained on an
even keel. Wright. in fact. met with
one slight mishap in his flight, when
wing tip struck the ground on
landing and considerably Jared the
machine. Wright's action in circling
the Statue Of Liberty was taken as a
challenge to Curtiss. for Curtiss was
the first to mention such a flight
From now on it is expected that the
two aviators will strive to outdo each
other, although neither will do any
thing reckless
TOmlinson was the first to start on
the dirigible. He got away at 1895
and headed north on the east side of
the Hudson. Baldwin arose at IL: 80,
shot out directly over the middle of
the Hudson and began travelling to-
ward the state capitol A puff of
wind snapped one of his rudder ropes
and he was forced to begin his as
cent on the water off the Jersey
shore and opposite 19Oth street The
balloon came down easily. Captain
Baldwin threw out dragnets and sail
ors from the battIeships Rhode Island.
New Jersey and North Carolina
swarmed to his rescue in launches.
Baldwin swung himself into a life
boat without getting wet
Meantime TOmlinson at height OF
5000 feet had been going northwarG
overland. Both his gasoline and oil
tanks began leaking. and fearing an
explosion he was forced to land near
White Plains.
Diplomatic representatives of TWEEN
ty-five nations and special delegations
of twenty-eight sat down to table
tonight at the Hotel Astor as the of

in addition the officers of eight ma
