PierCy Staggered
BY Long Sentence
WYOMING OIL CLAIM SWlNDlER
CONDEMNED TO FOURTEEN
YEARS IN PRISON.

Lewiston, Mont, Dec. 13.-F. H.
Piercy, who recently was convicted of
forgery for swindling several persons
out of money with which he proposed
to locate oil claims in Wyoming, was
yesterday sentenced to fourteen years
in the state penitentiary by Judge
Ayers of the district court.
Percy came to this city in theearly
part of the summer and asserted that
his associate, Fleming, was connected
with the Standard Oil company and
that they would develop the claims
after persons had filed on them. Sus-
pecting that things were not just as
they should be several men wrote to
the county clerk and recorder of Ma
trona county, where the papers were
supposed to have been filed, and found
that no such claims had ever been re-
corder there and that the signatures
were forgeries.
Piercy nearly collapsed after being
returned to his cell, for he had not
expected that the sentence would be
so long.

CuIbertSOn fOund
Guilty at WiIIiSt0n
MAN WHO KILLED FAMILY GIVEN
A LIFE TERM IN PEN-NO
MOTIVE FOR CRIME AScER-
TANNED.

Williston, N. D., Dec. 13.-Guilty of
murder in the first degree with life
Imprisonment as the punishment, was
the verdict returned at 10:45 O'Clock
las night in the case of Cleve Culbert-
son, tried for the murders of Mr.. and
Mrs, D. r. Dillon and their 12-year-old
daughter at Ray, this county, on
Oct. IS, last.
Dissatisfaction with the verdict on
the part of the big crowd in the court
room was quite apparent, and Culbert-
son was hurriedly taken to the coun-
ty Jail. Later the streets of the city
were filled with groups of men and
there was so much talk of lynching
that officials decided, shortly before
midnight, to remove Culbertson from
the city till the excitement blows over.
Confidence that jury would instruct
for the hanging of Culbertson was the
only thing that prevented lynching
when the man was first arrested few
hours after his brutal crime, for which
no motive has yet been established.
Culbertson took the verdict without
any apparent emotion. He seems re-
signed to his fate, evidently realizing
that the attempt at proving him in
sane had fallen on dumb ears Of jury
men.
The jury went out at 1880 o'clock
last night after being instructed by
Judge Frank Fisk on verdicts of muir.
der in the first and second degrees,
manslaughter and acquittal because
of insanity. .-.
States Attorney Burdick, who pros
ecuted the case, said shortly after the
verdict was returned that Culbertson
doubtless would have to be removed
Immediately to prevent trouble, and
he instructed Sheriff Erickson to that
effect.
Culbertson murdered the Dillon
family in cold blood. His movements
from the time he left Wilcox, Sask.,
where a charge of horse stealing is
pending against him, to the time he
reached the Dillon farmstead, we're
traced by the prosecution in the trial
just ended. ...
Dillon's dying statemnt in which
he positively identified Culbertson as
the man who had shot him, and killed
his wife and daughter, featured the
prosecutions testimony. No attempt
was made by the defense to dispute
the facts alleged by the state, the
whole hope being placed in the plea
of insanity.
Culbertson formerly lived at Hen.
redson, Neb., where he deserted his
wife and child, and where he is want

ed for larceny. His father aided him
financially in fighting the case.
The absolute lack of motive is the
most puzzling feature of the case.
