farmers JURY ACQUITS
five miners OF MURDER
Jurors Say Abb Accounted for
Freedom of Men Because of
Reasonable Doubt.

Marion, Ill.-After nearly twenty
seven hours elaboration a jury of
Williamson County farmers delivered
a verdict of not guilty in the first case
resulting from the killing of twenty
one non-union workers in the Herrin
riots last June.
The end of the long trial came so
suddenly that both spectators and the
five defendants who were charged
with the murder of Howard Hoffman,
one Of the victims of the outbreak, ap-
peared dazed. AS Judge D. T. Hart
we'll finished reading the last verdict
the only sound was a half smothered
sob from the wife of one of the de-
PENDANTS.
Word that the jury had reached a
verdict was received by Judge Hart
well at his Office at 1870 o'clock in the
afternoon. He Immediately notified
the attorneys and ordered the defend
ants brought from the Jail.
The news spread among the crowd,
which had stood patiently about the
square watching the courthouse ever
since the jury retired. The courtroom
filled swiftly.
Judge Hartwell ordered the jury
brought in at 1850 o'clock. Five min
utes later the last of the separate ver-
diets had been read and received in
dead silence. While the defendants
sat almost motionless the jury filed
out by one door, the spectators left by
another, and just ten minutes from
the time the jury was brought in the
courtroom was again empty.
All of the jurors refused to discuss
their verdict. One said that fifteen
or twenty ballots were taken. Anoth-
er declared they were all agreed on
the innocence of four of the defend
ants on the first ballot, but refused
to name the fifth, regarding whom
there was a difference of poinion.

BONES OF MAMMALS ARE FOUND IN YUMA SANDS;
 MAY BE CENTURIES OLD

YUMA, July 25-A petrified speci- men believed to be part of the back bone of a prehistoric mammoth or din- osaur with fragments of the ribs still attached has been brought here from the Mohawk district in eastern Yuma country and placed on display.
 The bones were found in sandy soil but portions of quartz adhering to the bone are believed to indicate that the remains have been under pressure for centuries.
 Plans are under way for an eXpedi- tion to the site of the find in an effort to locate the rest of the gigantic skel- eton. If the site proves to be rich in fossils an attempt probably will be, made to interest the University of Ari- zona in more extensive excavations.

BIOLOGICAL SURVEY :. HEAD |S TOURING
 WESTERN ALASKA
VALUE TO ALASKANS AND BIG GAME HUNTERS

Ernest P. Walker, chief fur and U. $. game warden, was through pas senger to the westward on the Ad- miral Evans, and will stop at Seward a few days upon the return of the Evans on her southbound trip.
 MT. Walker is compiling data in re- lation to the value of game and fur to Alaskans and gave some interesting facts in regard to the money spent in the Territory by outside sports men.
 In response to a questionnaire sent out by the biological survey, A out side sportsmen who have hunted in Alaska on fifty-two trips, reported ex- penditures in the Territory totaling $107, 7,5S6.50. Of this sum $5001 was for licenses and export fees. The re- maining $102,585.5O was paid to Alas kans for guides, outfits, transporta- tion, curios, etc. This averages about $1972S7 per trip. Three hundred and twelve game animals were taken, at an average cost of S32S.70 per ami nal. Of the fl individuals who re- ported seven have since become fin ancially interested in the Territory.
 It is pointed out by MT Walker that the money derived from this source is at no cost to Alaskans, and by prop erly building up the game supply it can become still greater attraction. it be known that Alaskans have the greatest wild life field remaining to- day we could profit much more in the future than we have in the past.
 The returns received are from only a small portion of the hunters who have been to the Territory the past few years.
 Scientific explorations and photo graphic expeditions which spend asI much or more were not included in the returns.
 MT. Walker is now compiling data showing the benefits derived to the Territory by big game hunters, and by conservation of flame. He believes that the game and fur is one of the TerritOry's greatest assets, and that it's conservation lies with the people and not with the officials. Every town should have an area in it's i'm mediate vicinity where it would be unlawful to hunt at any time, and where game could find a refuge unmo tested by man. This would increase interest to the tourist, and would re- suit in better hunting for residents as the overflow would be available for local sportsmen.
 MT. Walker will return on the Ad- miral Evans and spend several days in Seward looking over the situation and conferring with local game war dens.
