Jonn Iilia heets Ills DeaSll
in Peculiar Manner, as
Revealed by Inquest.

John Ihia, Roumanian, 80 years old,
was asphyxiated Thursday afternoon
in the Indiana Steel company's works,
and the inquest was held over the re-
mains yesterday afternoon by Deputy
Coroner E. r. Gordon of Hobart. The
man was found dead in the vicinity of
one Of the furnaces.
The testimony brought out at the
inquest revealed the peculiar fact that
gas overcomes the foreigners and kills
them frequently before they know what
is the matter with them. according to
a mill foreman, who testified in the
case yesterday.
In the case of this victim, which is
similar to others, the men get a whit
of the gas and become drowsy and have
a slight headache. Not knowing that
they are becoming sick they generally
lay down wherever they may be until
the gas either clears away or kills
them.
Yesterday there was a leak in one
of the gas mains near furnace, caus-
ed by the jar prying loose one of the
joints of the main. A gangof men
were at work repairing the main as
rapidly possible, but the victim OF
the gas was some distance away and
had nothing to do with the repair work
Thai suddenly got a smell of the
gas as he was doing manual labor in
the vicinity, and, as usual, instead OF
getting out of the way like person
would ordinarily. he is thought to have
laid down until he gradually suffo-
Gated. A few minutes later he was
found dead.
! The body was taken to Jones
morgue, and it will be buried by q
( number of his friends in the Tollestor

first conviction on finger print evil
dence in this country Thomas Jen-
nihgs. a negro. was today found guilty
by a jury in the criminal court of the
murder of c. 4. Hitler on the night of

The jurors felt SO confident of the
guilt of Jennings that the first ballot
resulted in a unanimous conviction,
with eleven of the jurors demanding
the death penalty. On the third ballot
the death sentence was made unani-

Counsel for Jennings asked for a
new trial on the grounds that the fin
ger print evidence should not have
been allowed. As a result it is prob
able that the supreme court will be
asked TO rule on such evidence in
criminal cases.
Judge Kavanaugh who presided at
the trial, declared when objection was
first made TO the evidence presented
by the state that in his opinion fhe
murderer Of Hitler wrote his signature
when he rested his hand upon a
freshly pointed porch railing at the
Hitler home.
Following the murder Of Hitler.
this porch railing was sawed off and
taken to detective headquarters where
photographs were made of the finger
prints. These photographs were en-
larged and following Jennings arrest
were compared with new mprints of
