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- .J peared dazed As Juuge D. i'. Hurt- \ well finished reading the last verdict, ihe only sound that broke the silence in the court room was a half smoth- ' ered sob from the,, wife of one of the defendants. Word that the 'jury*-had reached a verdict was received by Judge Hart- ! well at his oflii-e at 1:30 o'clock yes- j; 'teniay afternoon. He immediately } notified the attorneys and ordered the f defendants brought from the jail a C block away. The news spread among , the crowd, which had "stood 'putiently J about tfie square watching the court £ hous«Mever since the jury retired ut £ 11:15 a. m. Thursday. The court * room filled swiftly. After warning the spectators ag- JJ ainst any demonstration, Judge Hart- * well ordered the jury brought in. Five f minutes luter the last of the separ- f ate verdicts had been read and re-.J; ceived in dead silence. While the de- 0 fendants sat almost motionless in their ; P chftiis without any sign of emotion,, £ ihe Jury filed out the door, spectators t; left and just ten minutes from the r time the jury was brought into the } court room, it was again empty. t £ All the jurors refused to discuss | L their verdict und melted away in the, r crowds that gathered in little groups K about the square to discuss the find- £ ing. One juror said fifteen or twen ty ballots were taken. Another said 'V they were all agreed on the innocence] v of four of the defendants on the first j ballot. If DEMOCRATS WILL . ELECT I'RESIDAjNT !

Senator ; Simmons was accompanied by Col. A. | D. Watts, state revenue commissioner, j At the Craig home today "ope ( it | house" was held and hundreds of | mirers of the former governor and I of the distinguished visitors called tti I see tlie trio.
