DR.. B. C. Hyde today was con-
victed of murler in the first de-
gree and was given a life term in
the penitentiary for having killed
Col. Thomas H. Swope. the Kansas
City millionaire.
The conviction and sentence of
the young and popular physician
comes as a climax to one of the
most sensational murder trials in
the history of Missouri.
The jury which brought in the
verdict had been out since last
Friday night. For a time 1t ap-
peared likely that the jury would
not agree and that Judge Latshaw
would declare mistrial.
Hyde Hears Verdict.
The defendant, his wife and
his siters were in court by the
time the jury filed in. DIR. Hyde
was composed and calm and ap-
unmoved as the verdict
of guilty of murder in the first
degree" was read.
