JOHN DIETz GETS
VERDICT OF GUILTY
BackwoOdsman Who Fought Lum-
Der Trust and Defends Himself in
Noted Murder Trial Loses Case
Wife and Son Go Free.

Hayward, Wis, May i4.-A YER
dict in the famous Dietz Cameron
Dam Defender" case was returned
yesterday, declaring John Dietz
guilty of murder in the first degree
and his wife and son, Lester, not
guilty.
Dietz and his wife and son were
accused of conspiring to kill Deputy
Sheriff Harp, who was shot to death
when a party of officials attempted
to arrest Dietz at his home, where
he was barricaded. Dietz conduct
ed his own defense throughout the
trial, not having any attorney to de-
fend him.
1t will be remembered that the
so-called lumber trust, headed by
Edward Hines Of Chicago, OF Lori
mer case fame, was DESTROYS OF
building a dam near Dietz' home
and which would greatly affect the
value of Dietz' property. Dietz de-
fled them to build the dam, and
transformed his home into verita-
i BILE fortress. from which he COM
manded the site on which the dam
was to be built. The lumber trust
was compelled to call in the peace
officers. and it was during a pitched
battle between the officers and the
Dietz family that Harp was killed
Dietz maintained throughout the
trial that Harp was killed by anoth-
er officer, AM several of them tes-
tilted that they were firing in the
direction of Harp and that their
bullets might have struck him.
Dietz will appeal.
Just before passing sentence
Judge Reid asked Dietz if he had
ANYTHING to say. Dietz rose and
calmly faced the judge. !,

Further details of the fatal acct
dent we're secured from the men
who came with the body Saturday.
Nat Turner and Walter Black, who
were working on the Trip track"
at Heavener, were sent to repair a
broken draw head on box car
loaded with lumber. To bolt new
draw head in place 1t was necessary
to get to the floor on the inside Of
the car. To do this the young men
were taking the lumber from the
middle of one end of the car and
stacking it on either side. This
necessarily made very high stack.
A couple Of hours after they started
the work, Charley Black, father Of
Walter, remarked to a fellow work
man that the boys should have that
car fixed If they had not stopped TO
play, and he was going up TO see.
When Mr.. Black reached the car he
was Mortified TO see the head of his
son sticking above mass OF lum-
Der. The boy was dead, his neck
broken and his body crushed. Help
was called and the lumber removed
as quickly as possible. Back in the
end Of the car the lifeless body OF
Nat Turner was found where il had
been caught, and the life crushed
out by tons Of lumber. From indi-
cations it was evident that The
young men had not finished clear
ing the lumber from the fool
where they expected to work wher
the stack they had been making OF
the side Of the car fell over OF
them. Walter was standing VI
