"RAGTIME" KELLY
 IS HARD BUMPED
Oldhme Northern Vaudeville Enter tainer Against a Real Thing
 at Anchorage

or Che outcome Of Che trial of Prank CRagtimo") Kelly. am old vaudeville performer who made quite a reputation in Dawson in Che early days and who appeared in Juneau about two years ago. going from hcIc t0 Anchorage. @ late issue of Che Anchorage Times says.
 After deliborating fourteen hours Che jury In ease Of U. s. ys. the KeIlys at noon today returned the following verdict. We the jury. duly impaneled and sworn in the above entitled case do upon our oatbs dnd the defendant Frank Kelly guilty upon all the counts of Che indictments. and Mrs. Grace Kelly not guilty. We recommend Che clomcucy of the court for Che de- fendant Frank KelIy.'
 Kelly was tried and found guilty Of violation of the Mann act Fol- lowing Che reading of Che verdict and questioning Che jurors by Judge E. E. Richie. John F. Coney. counsel for Che defense. gave notice that he would mako motion for a new trial.
 The verdict caused a sensation in Che court room. The defendant Kelly became hysteriral and caused a scene bordering on Che spectacular. but was finally quieted by Mrs. Kelly and Attorney Coney Kelly bitterly denounced District Attorney Duggan. declaring that if granted a new trial bc would divulge evidence Of a startling nature. With tears stream iug down his face. shaken with soba and almost completely overcome by Che crushing effect of Che verdict. Kelly staggered from the court room bowed and broken man.
 During Che outburst Of emotion in Che court room Kelly tearfully de- clarcd. Before God and an mankind ! am innocent of this charge. don't blame the jury; they did what they thought was right, but it seems impossible that they could have found me guilty"
 The ease now known as Che "Kory .caso." has been in court for several days and caused considerable excitement iu town, especially among Che morbid and curious. lt is Che first case of its nature brought in Anchorage and In an probability will lay Che foundation for an similar prosecutions whether the verdict is sustained or reversed
 Under Che Mann act both parties to Che alleged ononso are held re- spousiblc. but in thc Kelly ease it is said Che two girls involved are im- muuc under Che protection of having turned states evidence. The crime is punishable by mot more than five years imprisonment or not more than S5.O0O fine. or both"
