REILLY gets
Ten YEARS
Miss Willie Grande Was Given
Her Freedom

Langdon, N. D., July 17.--Miss Mile
Gande accused Jointly with DR.. ]. ].
Reilly Of Milton in connection with the
death of Mrs. VIM. Drury of osna-
brock was today given her freedom,
this action being taken simultaneously
with the pronouncing of a sentence up
on the physician Of ten years in the
state penitentiary.
The end of DR. Reilly's trial came
with a suddenness that surprised even
those interested. Saturday morning
the cross examination Of DR.. Reilly
took up the entire morning and at noon
the defense sucalenly rested. Drs.
Law of Munich and Hannah were mt
on the stand for rebuttal testimony
by the state and the evidence was
then ended.
Late In the afternoon, States At
torney Crimson opened the arguments
for the state and he was followed by
Attorney Price for the defense. Attor-
ney General Miller closed for the
prosecution late in the evening and at
10 o'clock Judge Burr charged the
jury, and at II O'Clock the case wa !
given to the jurymen.
A verdict was entirely unexpected
at least until morning, as those inter
ested waited until / o'clock and then
Judge Burr retired. presumably for
the night as nothing was heard from
the jury, and 1t was thought they
would deliberate for hours before An
ally agreeing.
Shortly before 8 this morning. how
ever, word was telephoned to Judge
Burr by the bailiff that a verdict had
been reached and he hurried to the
courthouse where the twelve men had
filed into the courtroom with the fore
man holding the verdict in his hand.
A Dramatic Scene.
The scene was indeed dramatic. The
defendant, his attorney, a few court
attaches, the jury and Judge and sew
eral scattered spectators comprised the
personnel of those present. The pris-
oner waited with eager expectancy for
the foreman to pronounce the words
that meant so much for him, but ii
could be seen that he dreaded the an
nouncement. although hoping against
hope that 1t would be In his favor. The
verdict was, guilty with a penalty Of
ten years.
Before the verdict was read, Reilly
had nothing to say and he bore up
well when it reached his ears that he
must serve ten years at hard labor.
unless something interviewed.
An appeal will be taken Immediate
ly, according to Attorney Price.

The center Of the metropolis OF
North Dakota will have moved a MID
north tomorrow when the Interstate
fair opens in the morning, as the fair
grounds will be the scene Of Fargo's
activities until the end of the week.
The heretofore quiet driveways Of the
state fair grounds have suddenly
blossomed into busy, hustling streets
and tomorrow they win be crowded
with the large number Of spectators
who are expected from all parts of
the territory covered by the Interstate
fair.
Both President Scott and Secretary
Ballou feel that this years fair viii
be one Of the most successful ever
held in Fargo, Judging from the opti-
mistic outlook at the beginning Of the
week. Everybody has taken a great
interest and has helped to advertise the
fair all over the country so that a
large attendance is expected.
From the standpoint of exhibits and
attractions, including the aeroplane
and horse racing features, every belief
is entertained that this viii be the
best fair ever held in the city of Fargo,
not excepting some Of the biggest state
fairs held in recent years which have
been attended with great success.
Tomorrow morning everything will
be in complete readiness to throw open
the fair to the public. The sound Of
the hammer was heard in every build
ins, on the grounds today and squads
of decorators were busy at every booth.
Soon the interiors of the big exhibit
halls were transformed into attractive
bowers which showed off to good ad-
vantage the various wares to be dis
played during the week.

association will be under the grand

erland for Berlin, crowded with heavy
tourist traffic, was wrecked here to-
day. Twelve persons are known to have

lowed from the track by four cars. At

Not passenger In the first three
coaches OF the train escaped injury.

question. which he had had before him
ever since he took ONCE Jan. 1. 1910,
more than fifteen months ago.
Conference" Showed Him.
He admitted some OF the otter mem
bers OF the Joint; conference" had
raised points against tho idea Of tho
city insisting that the marlborough re-
lease one complete suoway system un-
der the terms OF the proposed new con-
tract with that corporation.
Neither Comptroller Prendergast nor
President Mitchell OF the Board OF AL
dermen would discuss subways. Both
said that when McAneny finally made
up his mind with respect to the Inter-
borough plan. and the Transit Commit
tee had made its report. they would
have a few words to add before a final
vote was taken in the Board Of Esti-
mate.
Mitchell and Prendergast are holding
TO their introduction pledges for an
Independent subway system made to
the public in The Evening World, while
other members OF the Board appear to
have forgotten their promises.

Further conference" of the Transit

Borough Presidents McAneny, Miller
and Cromweal-with the Public Service
Commission was held this afternoon.
The session was q eecret one. as have
been all the meetings of the committee
with the commission, as we'll as the
meetings with representatives OF the
PETERBOROUGH Rapid Transit Company.
Borough President McAneny says
there will be another "conterence' TO-
morrow night somewhere uptown. Later
on there will be a final conference"
with ~oficials OF the PETERBOROUGH. and
two weeks from to-day the TRANSIT Com
mittee will probably max Its report to
the Board of Estimate.
According to an attendant at tho va
rious meetings held upon the subway
question. Borough President McAneny
has backed down again. and he Is now
willing to grant concessions to the In
terborough which he formerly opposed.
In this McAneny Is said to have violated
the terms OF an agreement made with
borough President Miller Of the Bronx
at the beginning OF the meetings.
Why MoAneny Has Changed.
"McAneny made an agreement with
Miller TO hold out for tho city against
the PETERBOROUGH in certain particulars.
notably the preservation OF one north
and one south route as a unit In case
the city should decide to cancel Its
lease with tho marlborough ten ear
hence" said ihls official.
But since McAneny has talked with
members OF the Public Services COM
mission and has met with the officials
Of the Interborough he has discovered
that there are certain legal obstacles
to such n programme.

when the proposed notifications to
