SECOND DEGREE MURDER.
That's What The Jury Decided
In the Logan Case.

Henry c. Logan, the murderer
OF WEI Miller, was adjudged gull
~ of murder in the second degree
by the jury at his trial IN Rice
county last week.
The verdict was a surprise to al
most everyone, as it was thought
that either a verdict of murder in
the first degree or acquittal
wOuh be given under the evil
Gence, but it is thought that the
question of insanity had much to
CiO with the deliberations of the
jury.
Logan himself was practically
the ONLY witness for the defense.
Ills story was practically the
same as he first told when ar
rested. That he had been sleep
ing by the roadside when he was
awakened by the sound of a wag-
En approaching. That he had
taken his gun and stepped to the
sNfe of the road, and that when
the men In the wagon SAW him
they jumped out and ran off, leav
Ing the horses and wagon. Fear
ing that if he started to r9turn
them to the owner he would be
arrested for stealing he had made
up hlS mind to take them and try
10 dispose Of them and get out of
The country. That the gun found
N his possession was his own prop
erty, and that he was nowhere
near where the murder was CON-
mIhted and knew absolutely moth
my about it until after his ar
rest.
However tie prosecution had
such an array of avidence that
there was no doubt of the man s
gulIt. and his StOSy was SO.ilnrroF
able that one wonders how he
could expect anyone to believe it.
During the whole trial he SEEM
ngly remained indifferent as to
the outcome of the case.
The sentence If the court was
deferred until Tuesday of this
week, when Judge BrinxherhOff
Sentenced Logan to thirty years
Imprisonment in the state PEN
tenhary at hard labor. When
asked if he had anything to say
as to why sentence should not be
pronounced. Logan made quite a
lengthy talk, making the plea
that he had not had fair and
impartial trial, etc. Both Logan's s
wife and mOther-'n n-law were IN
court when sentence was. pro
rOmced. Up until the trial
was IN progress his wife had
stood by him staunchly, believing
IN his innocence, but so many
things were brought out in the
trial against him that 1t is said
that even she lost faith in him
and believed in his guilt.
