ter deliberating just thirty minutes re-
turned verdict against the defendant.
Immediately after the verdict Crippen

When the trial was resumed today.
Lord Chief Justice Alverstone called
Crippen to the stand and asked him
questions regarding the use of hyoscin
poison. with which, it was charged,
the accused killed his wife. The jus
tice elected the information that hy-
oscin was administered through the
mouth and also hypodermically.
Richard Muir then began the closing
speech for the prosecution. He said
the defense had relied largely on the
theory Crtppen was too kind hearted
to commit murder. The counesi point
ed out The defendant had. however. liv-
mcc<ing the grief OF his wife's dear
est friends. The prosecutors address
occupied scarcely more than an hour.
He concluded by saying that the pros
ecution had proved beyond a reason
able doubt that the body found I'm
Crippen,s home was that OF his wife.
Belle E1nore, the actress, and that
none by the prisoner could have cut UP
the body and buried it in the cellar.
Ak erstone began his summing up of
the case as soon as Muir had conclud-
ed. The case was then submitted to
the jury.
When the verdict was announced,
Lord Chief Justice Alverstone asked
the physician IL he had anything to say.
Crippen replied I'm a low voice:
Il still protest my innocence"
The Chief Justice then donned the
black cap and pronounced the sentence
of death.

sTReeTER's "pEEsTRIcT" SOLD.
Purchaser is Lawyer, Who Once Freed
Him From Prison.

Chicago, oct. 22.-The "Deestrict OF
Lake Michigan, United states of Am
erica" generally known at street
ervillc," Is no more.
Despite "Capt" George Wellington
Streeter's protests that the "deestrict
could not be disposed of without a
clear deed from him, 1t was auctioned
off by a deputy sheriff for only $1,000.
to Attorney w. G. Anderson, who was
instrumental in freeing Streeter from
the penitentiary for the killing of John
5. Kirk, a watchman, was the buyer.
The "deestrict," or that part of 1t
which Streeter alleged he was inter-
ested in. was sold to satisfy judg-
ment of $4,000 obtained against him
by Attorney Anderson for securing
his release b,from the penitentiary.
When Attorney Anderson was working
for the pardon of Streeter the latter Is
said to have promised him fee of
$4,000 IL he succeeded. Later. how
ever, Streeter II is said to have refused
to consider Andcrson's demands. The
case was in the courts for some time
and was brought to a climax when
the superior court ordered a sheriffs
sale.
If Streeter is found later to be not
legally entitled to any interest in the
district the sale will be declared void.

SAYS MORELAND
Will BE SAVED
CAPT. JOSEPH Il. KIDD THINKS
1T WILL BE POSSIBLE TO
FLOAT STRANDED ORE
CARRIER.

Capt. Joseph III. Kidd of Duluth,
representing the underwriters of the
freighter Moreland, which is stranded
on a reef off Eagle River stated to-
day that he thinks IL will be possible
to float the ship. Capt. Kidd came TO
Portage Lake on the tug Boynton
last night when the choppy seas made
IL necessary for the wreckefs to aban-
don work. III they can get the cargo
out, they can save her" is the way
asked about the condition OF the boat
with the equipment now available il
will be possible To unload the cargo
at rate of 500 tons per hour. 1t Is
likely that the boat will be taken To
Portage Lake and sunk for the winter.
II II Is possible to float her"
Although the small sea which sprans
up last evening. made il necessary to
dicontinue work on the boat, the boat
is I'm no immediate danger and is APP
parently in the same position it oc-
cupied yesterday. The bow of the boat
is resting in 10 feet of water and the
stern in about Is feet. The craft
broke about 1875 feet from the prov
and is resting in 32 feet of water
amidships. From the shore today IL
appears that the seam where the ship
broke has become a trihe wide That
the water has not yet reached the
boiler room, however. is evidenced by
the fact that smoke may be seen
coming from the stacks at regular in
tervals. The sea is not very heavy to-
day, but too choppy to permit the
work of lightering the craft to con-
tinue. The vessel seems to have
sunk little lower amidship today
than yesterday.
Marine men who have viewed the
wreck call attention to the necessity
of a fog horn sf.hial and lighthouse on
the west shore of Keweenaw point
near Eagle River. They assert that
there should be fog horn at Eagle
River proper and a light at Big Point,
about seven miles from Eagle River.
The lighthouse at Eagle River was
abandoned by the government several
years ago and sold at auction, il hav-
ing been thought that other light
houses accomplish the same purpose.
However, for a number of years there
have been wrecks at this point, and
marine men generally point To the
danger.
Among the other ships which have
gone aground at Eagle River during
the last few years are the j. III. Pick
lands, i'm 1894. heavy loss; the Color
ado a few years later, a total loss;
the wrecker Fern. a total loss and five
lives lost; the steamer Uranus, heavy
loss: the Pathfinder and Sagamore
last year. and number of others. In
addition to these boats which were
either wholly or partly wrecked a
number of other ships have come in
touch with the reef. but fortunately
escaped being stranded.

FIRED GRANTS MOUND.

The New York Sun publishes story
which is about as reliable as ii great
many of these latter-day recollections of
men who claim TO have been in the war,
tho not in regular service and have
done something unusual. The story is
that at the beginning of the siege of
VicksburS Caleb Perry, now a carpen-
ter on tie State Farm at Bridgewater,
Mass, was at Vicksburg, and was sta
toned on the river above the town with
orders to shoot at all persons and craft
attempting to pass him without permis-
sion. On the night of Feb. 20. 1863,
Perry saw two boys in a canoe return
ing to camp. They did not heed his
warning to stop, and after firing in the
air he took aim and wounded young
Grant. Next day Perry was brought
before Gen. Grant for punishment. but
Grant was moved to tears by the dan
ger that his son had unwittingly strayed
mand than Perry.
What knocks this st6ry out is that
the date set was entirely too early. Fred
Grant was with his father lcng after
the date mentioned, and received his
wound two months later, when the
army had passed below Vicksburg and
gained the highlands in the rear. All
records agree upon this, and that he
was shot while riding little pony that
the boys had found for him and while
ne was acting as Orderly for his father
in carrying messages and orders. Nor
is it for moment true that Fred Grant
had the title and wore the uniform of
a Captain at that time. TIe was merely
boy who had slipped away from his
fathers care to go with the other boys
on the fighting line, and was fun of the
spirit of the times. Mr.. perry's Story is
too absurd on its face for further dis
cussion.
