SCHMIDT REFUSES
TO ALLOW APPEAL


the verdict Schmidt wore a clean silk
handkerchief about his neck. For
the first time since the opening of
the first trial Schmidt had combed
his hair, which has grown so long
that it completely conceals his neck
and ears, but yesterday it was parted
and smoothed back neatly.
Schmidt ate a. hearty supper after
his return to the Tombs, and imme-
diately afterward he went to bed and
fell into sound sleep. 1t was when
he was awakened by his counsel. Al
phonse G. Koelble, that he made the
announcement that he wanted no
appeal
81 am satisfied with the verdict,
said Schmidt. 81 would rather die to-
day than tomorrow. / notify you
that L do not wish you to appear
further in my behalf, and that l will
not in any way assist you if you try
to take the case to a higher court.
1 would do nothing to prevent the
fate that / know awaits me-
Confessed the Murder.
The murder of Anna Aumullcr was
one of the most horrible in the crime
history OF. this city Schmidt was a
priest attached to st. Joseph's Church
when he took the girl to fat he had
fitted up. He confessed that on the
morning of September last he went
to the house about midnight and
while she slept cut her throat and
then dismembered the body, cutting
it into nine parts. These he dis
posed of by throwing them into the
Hudson river. The torso was found
on the Jersey shore and three pieces
have been found. The head is still
missing.
Justice Davis last night in dis
charging the jury thanked them for
the obviously intelligent considera-
ton they had given to the case. Later
Mr.. Underhill said that from the very
beginning. there had never been any
the guilt of the defendant They
had, however, considered the matter
in a formal way upon retirement and
the first ballot showed them to be
unanimous on the verdict of murder
in the~first degree.
It took Justice Davis twenty min
utes to reach the court room, being
uptown when the verdict was ready.
AS he entered and ordered the jury
brought in it was apparent that the
verdict had been agreed upon. The
twelve men seemed solemn as they
took their seats. Schmidt was sent
for. A deputy sheriff brought him in.
He wore his long fur lined overcoat,
but had put a clean handkerchief
about his neck, and he had smoothed
down his. hair. He looked bright of
eye and was apparently expecting the
verdict.

FALLS THIRTY FEET ON HIS HEAD BUT
MIDNIGHT LUNCHER ONLY BREAKS WRIST

Clarence Wilkes Dean, a negro,
twenty-four years old, ate three ba-
nanas and drank a quart of milk be-
fore he went to bed in his home, IA
Boston street, last night. Clarence's
digestion usually is as strong as any,
thing else about him, but this was
too much, and at a. m. he had a
nightmare. Strange animals and ter
rifying shapes were chasing him, he
dreamed, so, gathering the bed clothes
about him, he leaped from his bed in
terror.
Now, Clarence likes fresh air, and
always sleeps with his window open.
He is also a jumper OF no inconsid-
