PRICE IS FOUND
GUILTY BY JURY
CONVICTED OF MURDER IN THE
FIRST DEGREE-sTAY OF
SENTENCE GRANTED.
FACES LIFE IMPRISONMENT
Defendant In Sensational Murder Trial
Near Breakdown For First
Time-Motion For New
Trial to be Argued

Minneapolis, Jan. 17.-Frederick T.
Price was convicted of murder in the
first degree by a jury that reported
to Judge Fish at 40 p. m. Saturday.
On motion of M. c. Brady, attorney
for Price, Judge Fish granted stay
of sentence until Wednesday, when
motion for new trial on the ground
of newly discovered evidence and al
legged errors occurring in the conduct
of the trial will be argued.
Under the verdict only one sentence,
life imprisonment, can be imposed.
Price Appears Nervous.
More nervous than he had appeared
since the trial began, Price was led
into the court room five minutes be-
fore the jurors filed in. His hands
were trembling and his chin Quivered.
AS he saw the crowd that filled every
seat in the small court room in which
Judge Fish received the verdict, he
pulled himself together and, outward
ly calm, waited while Judge Fish took
the bench and A. E. Frost, deputy
clerk of the district court, called the
roll of Jurors.
Gentlemen, have you agreed on a
verdict?" asked Mr.. Frost and there
was tense silence in the court room
as James c. Balm, first veniremau
replied, 1--WE have"
Reads Verdict.
Every eye was riveted on the pris-
ener as Mr.. Frost received the ver-
dict, handed it to Judge Fish and then
when the court had passed it back,
read the words:
eve, the jury, find the defendant,
Frederick T. Price, guilty as charged
in the Indictment"
During the wait for the verdict Price
sat at a table, just behind his attor-
ney, M. c. Brady. Brady was nervous.
Price sat quietly and looked about the
room, then casually at the sober-faced
Jurors.
But his right hand, resting on the
table, tapped little tattoo, the one
sign that he knew he was facing his
great climax. The verdict was read:
Guilty"
