in HANDS OF JURY.
McGivern Case Involving Cruelty to
Horse Awaits Verdict.

The jury in the McGivern case, in
which Elmer Nelson, former en-
ployee of Jack McGivern, a Quincy
street horse-shoer, we'll known here,
charged the latter with inhuman
treatment of a valuable stallion in
pursuance of a plan to kill the animal
and collect insurance upon it, retired
this morning and spent several hours
in elaboration. 1t had not returned
late this afternoon.
Nelson told his story in the court
room Tuesday, alleging that he had
discovered McGivern in various acts
calculated to cause the death of the
animal in such a manner as to make
the reason of its death uncertain and
that McGovern had promised him $50
for his silence. Certain weaknesses
in the testimony of the prosecution
aroused considerable sympathy in the
court room for McGivern.

firm. nor had been assigned to them.

ACETATE FOR War
Sunday Set for Big Italian
Demonstrations.
Government Watches Prepare.
ton Without Comment.

Rome, March 24.-Leaders of the
italian interventionist party today an
nounced plans for monster pro-war
demonstrations in Rome, Genoa, Ma
pies and other Italian cities next Sun
day Their aim is to fan the flame of
public sentiment and force the cabinet
to deliver an ultimatum to Austria
that will mean war.
Government officials received the
announcement without comment.
There was no intimation that any at
tempt would be made to prevent the
war meetings.
The Idea Nazionale today printed
dispatch from its Trent correspond
ent which stated that the Austrian
crown prince has emphatically vetoed
the proposal to cede any portion of
Austrian territory to Italy. The crown
prince has just returned from the
eastern battle front, according to the
correspondent. He declared that the
Austrian army would regard such a
surrender as more humiliating than
a defeat by Italian arms on the battle
field.
But officials, while admitting there
was every reason for the country to be
on the alert, insisted today that efforts
to win over Franz Joseph have by no
means been exhausted.

Fierce Fight on Ossowetz.
Official announcement has been
made in PetrOgrad, says the CORE
spondent of Reuters Telegram COM
pany that the Germans since Sunday
have removed all but four of their
heavy batteries from before OssowetZ.
The Russian statement adds:
"A couple of 4 2 centimeter howit-
zerS Were abandoned after the first
ba tiles, one of which was damaged
by our fire. Shots from the howitzers
failed to crush the masonry of the
fortress. Superiority in artillery fire
was distinctly in our state. Not only
was the German attack far from en-
dangering the OSSowetz forts but the
enemy failed to dislodge our infantry
from it's field works.
In an Austrian attack on the 18th
on the front in the vicinity of RopitZa
the enemy opened a hurricane fire
with II inch howitzers under cover of
which twenty enemy battalionS at
o'clock in the morning, attacked our
forces which were in greatly inferior
strength. Our infantry opened fire
with extremely careful aim at the

trenches. His reserves were exhaust

Great FIGHT is ON
Russians Pour Into Carpathian
Mountain Passes.
Battle at Gateway of
Their Empire.

Berlin. March 24.-What is de-
scribed in Berlin as one of the greatest
battles of the eastern campaign has
developed in the Carpathians.
For months the opposing armies
have been contending for the noun
tain passes, definite possession of
which by the Russians would expose
Hungary to the danger of invasion.
The Berlin reports say the present
battle has not yet reached a stage
where success for either side is indi-
Gated.
Reports from the Carpathian noun
tains indicate that one of the greatest
and most sanguinary battles of the
campaign is now raging.

WE ALL WEAR EN-
Boy Who Wanted Purple Shirt
Sent to Asylum.
He Asked for Socks to Match.
Did Young Richey.

A commission of alienists in the
probate court this morning pro-
nounced Clarence Richey, 20-year-o
son of J. s. Richey of 1872 Lime
street, insane and recommended his
commitment to the state hospital
here.
Young Richey was recently brought
back by his parents from Fort Worth,
Tex, where he had been confined in
Sanitarium for a few days.
His mental vagaries were manifest
ed at the county Jail this morning
when he declined to dress because he
wanted a shirt with broad purple and
white stripes, with socks to match,
and was not supplied with them by
the jailer in charge. He threw his
pipe and a blanket through the barred
window of his cell with the explana-
ton that he did not want them.

the murder of Richard Randolph,
slain in his store late yesterday, were
unsuccessful today. Mrs Della Ran

against whom a divorce suit had been
instituted, gave the police evidence to-

When Mrs. Randolph was taken in

the murder she tore up a note. The
police piecad the note together. Mrs
Randolph admitted it was written by
the man for whom the police now are
