TREMBLY IS :
GUILTY, SAYS
COUNTY JURY
Hours of DeABt
erations Result in Verdict
. Against Defendant.

Tho jury which has been hearing
the case against Archie Trembly,
charged in the district court with
arson, returned this morning a YER
dict of guilt in the third degree.
coupled with a recommendation for
ciemency. ...'
Yesterday afternoon when District
Judge Charles NJ. Cooley, finished
reading his charge. the jury retired at
erations practically uninterfuptedly
until 1880 this forenoon. There was
no indication of what had been going
on In the jury room. but it vas UNDER
stood that the determination Of the
degree of guilt took up considerable
time. q a.
No motive was announced for the
recommendation that the court extend
clemency to the defendant. but it is
possible that the fact he is a first Of
fender. may have been of some i'm
portance to the Jurors.
Judge Cooley will pronounce sen
tence upon Trembly either late this
week or in the beginning of next
week. According to the laws of the
state a sentence Of from three to
seven years in the peniteitnary may
be meted out to the prisoner.
Trembly was convicted Of having
maliciously set fire to the barn of Ole
Berthusen in Brenna township in the
night Of September 16. 1917. From
the testimony it appeared hat he had
a grievance against MIR. Berthusen
who had been his employer. and who
had held back $40 of, Trembly's wages
because Trembly apparently had ne
elected his work. Several witnesses
swore hat Trembly on various oc-
casions had threatened to "get even"
with MIR. Berthusen. but yesterday
when the defendant took the stand in
his own behalf. he strenuously denied
having uttered any threats.
