FIRST DECREE VERDICT
Jury Decides That Joseph Uoschino
Killed Prank Cunfurti.
TMXK HE DESERVES DEATH
It Did Not Take the Twelve Men, Lung to
Agree I'pon Verdict -The y Koturucd
Defendant Guilty of .Murder but
Did Not at I list Fix Degree.
Joseph Honchlno hue b33n found guil
ty of murder In the first dt'Kteo for the
crime of killing AlphoiiNO Complcrcho,
otm-rwie known as Frank Confortl, at
Bunker HU1, ubove Dunmoiv, on Sun
day evening, Nov. .11, of hint year.
It required ten days to complete tha
trial and besides being the longest
homicide case In the court! of this
county, It also has the distinction of
being one of the most ably tried. Judge
F. W. Uunster presided, and his rulings
upon the points that arose In the evi
dence were marked with clearness unl
nice distinction. District Attorney
John 11. Jones can be best spoken of la
connection with the Boschlno cuse by
complimenting him on the complete
ness of the commonwealth's side
against such veteran and famous crim
inal lawyers as Ex-Judge Ward and
George S. Horn, who received very ma
terial asslctance from Attorney L. P.
Wedenum, of Forest City. Judge Cani
ster's churge, the final chapter of the
trial, was un exhaustive, yet perspica
cious, presentation of the luw und the
evidence.
How the Jury Stood.
After the Jury retired Tuesday night
to their room Charles S. Seamans was
elected foreman, and the first ballot
taken resulted In nine for llrst degree
and three for acquittal; the second bal
lot whs the same, but the third noted a
change, ten for first degree and two for
acquittal. The jurymen then chatted
und argued, but retired to their cots
without taking another vote. When
they arose yesterday morning the first
ballot taken was eleven for first de
gree and one for acquittal. At 10
o'clock the Jury, through Tipstaff An
thony Walsh, sent word to Judge Gun
ster that they wished to hear some
of the testimony read. Boschlno was
brought from the prisoner's dock Into
court room No. 2. The jury filed from
their room and when all were seated In
the Jury box. Judge Gunster addressed
them thus: "Gentlemen, I understand
you wish to have some of the testimony
read; which portion do you desire to
hear?" Foreman Seamans unswered:
"Your honor, we would wish to hear
that portion of the testimony of John
Mirano and Watchman Klein with
reference to the actual firing of the
shuts. It has also been suggested that
we hear the testimony of the young
man who saw the defendant running
up the railroad. I think his name is
Flnnerty."
An Agreement Reached.
Court Stenographer H. H. Coston
read the testimony to the Jury and
then they retired again to their room.
The remainder of the time until noon
was spent In discussing the testimony,
and at noon the jury went out for their
meals In charge ot the two tipstaffs, An
thony Walsh and Jacub Sutto, who had
been guarding them since the first day.
After coming back a ballot was taken
and it resulted in a unanimous verdict
of murder in the first degree.
The muln court room was packed
with people when the'jury sent word
to Judge Gunster that they had agreed
upon their verdict.
They were ordered brought In as tho
hands of the ivory-dialed clock pointed
to 2.13. The Jury took seats In the box
to the right of the bench. Boschlno
was In the prisoners' dock behind them
and he peered over the baluster with
an anxious look on his countenance;
his eyes gleamed as he waited to hear
the verdict read, although It Is possible
that he would not have understood it.
Clerk Thomas P. Daniels handed the
sealed envelope to Judge Gunster, who
opened it and read It.
The verdict found the defendant
guilty of murder as set forth In the
first count of the indictment, but did
not specify the degree. Judge Gunster
handed the paper back ami said:
"Gentlemen, In your verdict you find
the defendant guilty of murder; you
must retire to your room and name the
degree."
Motion of Mr. Horn.
The Jury was again led out and re
turned ten minutes later. When they
came back the attorneys for the de
fense were not In court and the verdict
was not taken until ex-Judge Ward
anil Mr. Horn appeared at 2.45. Mr.
Horn walked before the bench and
said :
"We ask the court that the verdict
of the Jury which was brought Into
court a few moments ago and read by
the court, be recorded as the verdict In
this case."
District Attorney Jones objected to
the motion on the ground that the act
of assembly specifies that the jury
must fix the degree. Judge Archbald
was on the bench and Judge Gunster
conferred with him.
"The motion Is overruled," said Judge
Gunster, who then ordered Clerk Dan
iels to take the amended verdict. The
roll call of the Jury being completed,
the envelope containing the verdict
was handed to the court and after the
judges on the bench had read it, a
record was made of It on the docket
and then returned to Mr. Daniels who
read It aloud:
"Gentlemen of the Jury, hearken unto
your verdict as the court hath recorded
It. lly your verdict In the case In
which the commonwealth Is prosecutor
and Joseph Boschlno defendant, you
say you find the defendant guilty In
manner and form as he stands charged
In the first count of the Indictment."
Here Mr. Daniels stopped and the
"wded court room was still as death.
Jl Ounster prompted Mr. Daniels
to '. - murder In the first degree, but
the v ! rds of the court could not be
heard except by those very adjacent
to the bench. Mr. Daniels resumed;
"You say, gentlemen, your verdict is
that of murder in the first degree?"
Tl.o Jurors Thanked.
At this there was a deep blifg ,bs If
every person then exhaled his pent-up
breath. The Jury was then polled at
the request of Mr. Horn. Judge Gun
ster thanked the Jury and discharged
them from further attendance at this
term of court.
Boschlno, who had been standing all
this while, then subsided and was lost
from view. The attorneys, for the de
fense will move for a new trial at
once and prepare reasons.

AFTER MILK DEALERS.
Board of llculth W (II Enforce More Strin
gent Regulations.
All city milk dealers, retail ,and
wholesale, will hereafter be obliged to
procure a license from the board of
health. They must sign an agreement
to conform to certain regulations of the
board adopted several years ago, but
which are now to be enforced owing
to recent complaints that milk Is adul
terated and that skimmed milk Is sold
for the creamery fluid.
From the complaints It Is Inferred
by the health otlleiuls that the stores
and larger dealers sell a very fair quali
ty of milk. The chief culprits seem to
be the smaller dealers and the festive
farmer who peddle a lacteal fluid a
little the worse for wear, and tasting
quite strongly of water.
By procuring a license and signing
an agreement deulers and peddlers will
make themselves more liable to pun
ishment In case they are detected in
adulteration. They must, In. future,
label or tag all skimmed milk and sell it
only as such.

ANOTHER MURDER TRIAL
Joseph Kuminisky on Trial For Kill
ing, August Grouse, of Archbald.
THE JL'KY HAS BE E.N SECTKED
Panel Was Exhausted and Judgo Arch
' bald Told tho Sheriff to Cull in Twelve
Talesmen Details of the Crime for
Which Accused Is on Trial.
Another homicide case was begun
yesterday morning in the main court
room before Judge Archibald. District
Attorney John It. Jones and Attorney
Charles 13. Olver represent the ..omrion
weulth, and Constable William Dougher,
of Archbald, figures as tho prosecutor.
The defendant is a Poland r named
Jobcph Kuminisky, and he is charged
with tho ciimo of felonious Homicide.
It Is a vase where. If the comnvinwealth
can establish what It proposes to do.
the defendant will be convicted of mur
der In the llrst degree. The defendant
is represented by Attorney M. A. Mc
Olnley, one of the bright young mem
bers of the bur, who will make a de
termined battle to save his client from
the hangman's tree.
At 11 o'clock yesterday morning Ilu
mlnlsky was led before 'the bar of Jus
tlce and entered u plea of not guilty.
Tho tusk of getting a Jury wus then
proceeded with and it wus a tedious
undertaking, us usual In ull murder
cases. As each Juror came forward he
was asked the regular queotions about
his scruples ugalnst capital punishment,
whether he formed an opinion or not,
and If he could go Into the Jury box
und render a verdict of murder In the
first degree if tihe evidence warranted
it, knowing that the law Is responsible
for the execution of the death penalty.
Attorney McUluley, in questioning
the Jurors to itest their compotence to
sit In Judgment, did not adhere to the
general rule of lawyers In homicide
cases. He introduced the unique and
forcible method of testing the feelings
of 'the Jurors ugalnst the Polish peo
ple. The Jurors were also required to
state whether or not they were tem
perance cranks. The cause of this was
obvious; the defendant was drinking at
the time the affray occurred which ho
Is Implicated In.
Talesmen Culled In.
Two Juries were out and, therefore,
much delay was caused Iti getting
twelve men. In the afternoon a. Jury
that had been engaged In a case In
court room No.3 was discharged and
that added to the panel. Hut before
twelve Jurors could be got It was neces
sary for Judge Archbald to Issue tin
order for a Bpeclal venire of twelve
tulesmen from the by-standers In court.
Sheriff demons returned with the
following twelve, and William P. Uen
nott, the first one on tho list, wus ac
cepted, and tha't completed the Jury.
These are the talesmen: William P.
Dennett, W. A. St. John, Thomas W.
Davis, Clark Lowry, John H. Reynolds,
W. M. Finn, W. J. Murray, John D.
Klchurds, A. K. Detweller, Peter For
rest und W. J. Maithews.
The Jury that will try Rumlnlsky is
us follows:
W. 15. Moore, carpenter, Scranton. .
E. L. Hertlne, cabinetmaker, Scranton.
Wm. Fruntz, ex-commissioner, Scran
ton. Nicholas Wayman, farmer, Greenlleld,
F. L. Miller, watchman, Carbondale.
Joseph Ilulley, blacksmith. Chinchilla.
E. It. Stark, Insurance agent, Scranton.
Joseph Stewart, miner, Si runton.
(leorge E. Wade, merchant. Old Forge.
J. E. Mansfield, wheelwright, Scranton.
Thomus nunnery, shoemaker, Carbon
dale. Wllllum P. Dennett, tea agent, Scranton.
Judge Archbald ordered the Jury
sworn and the Jurymen were led to
their room In charge of Tipstaffs Evans
and Evans.
Story of the Crime.
The crime the defendant 1s charged
with Is thait of partnership in the death
of an old man named August Grouse
at Archbald last September. The mur
dered man's son, a young man named
John Grouse, Is on accessory to the
murder, but he has made his escape.
Old man Grouse and his son lived on
Pine street n.ar the Delaware and
Hudson depot In Archbald. On Satur
day night, Sept. is, ism, Kuminisky
came to Grouse's place; the old man
used to keep a sort of a cobbler's shop,
that Is he did odd Jobs mending old
shoes.
The beer pail was called into requisi
tion and about 1 o'clock Sunday morn
ing the old man, the son nnd Kumin
isky began to quarrel. The son struck
his father on the head with a wooden
form that shoemakers use In repair
ing the uppers of boots. The form was
In the shape of a man's leg from the
knee down.
It Is alleged that Kuminisky took a
hand In for fear the parricidal son
would not be able to accomplish his
lnn t ii 1 design. Kuminisky Is charged
with plunging a dagger six times Into
the old man's liver. Dr. Van Dusen, of
Archbald, was sent for, hut all surgical
attention was fruitless. Old man Grouse
died the following Thursday. That Is
substantially the case for which Kumin
isky will be called to answer for his life.
II ENSLEY JL'KY OUT.
Evidently Find It a Difficult Task to
Agree.
Very little was done In court yester
day outside of the murder case against
Joseph Kuminisky. In the case of
Albert Hurts, charged with keeping
a tippling house, a jury was railed in
No. 3 nnd the case wus opened, but
before any testimony was heard tho
hour for adjournment arrived. Con
stable Hernnrd Davis, of the Second
ward, Is the prosecutor, and there are
two Indictments against Ilurtn. The
October grand Jury found a true hill
against him and there was one found
by the December grand Jury also. Doth
are for selling liquor without a license.
The cases will be resumed today.
The arguments of counsel on both
sides nnd the ohnrge of the court were
made early yesterday morning In the
Philip Hensley bigamy case, and the
Jury retired, but had not been able to
agree at adjournment yesterday and
they were still out deliberating at ad
journment. In court room No. 3 James Sheridan,
sr., James Sheridan, jr., Patrick Mal
loy, Timothy Moran, John Moran and
Daniel Moran, were on trial the day
before charged with assault and bat
tery by James Leonard. All were re
turned yesterday morning not guilty.
James Sherldun, jr., and John Moran
were exonerated from payment of any
part of the costs and the remainder of
the defendants will settle three-fourths
of ihe bill of costs among them; the
pr secutor will pay the other one
