JURY RETURNS VERDICT OF
GUILTY OF MANsLAuGhTER
N FIRST DEGREE.
NOTHING IN EVIDENCE TO
JUSTIFY ACT, SAYS COURT
Several verdiets Possible Under tho
Law and Courts Instructions Il
Truth Of Allegation. Against Mrs.
<Hains and Ami. Have No Bearing
on Verdict, Judge Holds.

Flushing, N. z, May 1.-THE jury
late this afternoon returned verdict
Of guilty of manslaughter in the first
degree in the case of Captain Hains,
who shot and killed William e.. Annis.
Flushing, May 1.-THE Hains case
was given to the jury at 1905.
In the event of Hams acquittal OH
the grounds of insanity at the time he
shot and killed Annis, the question of
his present mental condition arises.
Attorney Mcintyre has not hesitated to
say that he believes his client is insane
at the present time. Should Justice
Garretson share this belief he might is
sue an order for defendant to be con-
fined in the state institution for insane
until he is pronounced cured.
Justice Garretson in his charge to
the jury warned the jurors against be-
ing swayed one way or an other by
sympathy. He said the jurors were the
sole judges of all the facts.
"The jury has the right from the
results to find the intent to kill" said
he. but there must not only be an in
tent but also premeditated and de-
liberate design to kill"
The court defined murder in the first
and second degree and manslaughter.
He said there was nothing in the re-
cord on which the jury could assume
that defendants act was justified or
excusable.
Several Verdicts Possible.
Speaking Of the domestic relations
Of defendant, Justice Garretson said
the truth Of the allegations against
Mrs. Hams and Annis did not have to
be shown. 1t was sufficient, in con-
sidering defendants mental condition,
|.if he had been told Of such relation
and he believed them to have existed
I'm fairness and justice Mrs. Claudia
Hains should have her say in court to
answer such grave charges" said the
justice. Neither she nor the dead
man, Annis, are on trial in this case"
The court declared that neglect or
refusal Of defendant to testify in his
own behalf did not create any pre-
sumption against him. In concluding
his remarks Garretson told the jury
they might bring in any one Of the fol-
lowing verdicts: Guilty Of murder in
the first degree; guilty of murder in
the second degree; guilty Of man
slaughter in the first degree; not guilty,
or not guilty on the ground Of insan-
ity.
