CHICKURE IS
N0TGUILTY
SO SAID JUItY BY DIRECTION OF
THE COURT.
Commonwealth Showed That the Boy
Killed Mary Kublus by Striking
Her with an Iron Rivet but Did
Not Prove His Criminal Capacity.
Pirst of the Numerous Strike Cases
Was Tried nnd a Conviction Re
sulted Frank McVittlo Enters a
Plea of Guilty.
Tcn-yeitr-nhl Stephen Chlckurc, ot
Wlnton, was yesterday returned not
guilty of the murder of little Mary
Kublus, nt Wlnton, on June 4 last, the
commonwealth not having proved tho
criminal caimclly of the boy.
The case was called for trlul before
Judge Ferris, In Xo. !l, and It was
shown that on June 4 lust a. number of
children were playing around a hydrant
in fiont of the homo of Mr. and Mrs,
John Kublus, at Wlnton. Their
daughter, Mary, who lacked a month of
being 10 years of age, chased the chil
dren away from the hydrant, except
one little girl named Chlckurc, who re
fused to go, and Mary Kublus pulled
her hair.
This angered Stephen Chlckurc, tho
girl's brother, and ho started In pur
suit of Mary Kublus. Not being able
to ovcrtuke her he pulled an Iron rivet
from his pocket nnd throw It at the
Blrl, striking: her behind the car and
fracturing the skull. She died almost
Instantly. The commonwealth called
Coroner J. F. Saltry, County Detective
W. A. Phillips, Constable William
Hell, John Kublus nnd the Intter's wife
as witnesses.
After the commonwealth rested At
torney T. P. Duffy, who represented
the defendant, asked the court to give
binding instructions to the jury to re
turn a verdict of not guilty on the
ground that the criminal capacity ot
thu defendant iiad not been shown by
the commonwealth and the law says
that in tho case of a child between
the ages of 7 and 14 the criminal cap
acity of the accused must be proved
as Is any other fact In the ease.
THEY OBJECTED.
Attorneys Louis Gramcr and Joseph
Gllruy, representing the prosecution,
objected to tho request of Mr. Duffy,
but Judge Ferris said it was a correct
statement of the law, and in the nb
sencc of any evidence concerning the
criminal capacity ot tho defendant he
directed a verdict of not guilty.
Yesterday was the first day of the
October term of criminal court, and the
list that confronted the judges had 079
cases on. it. Judge K. C. Xewcomb is
presiding in the main court room this
week, Judge IT. M. 'Kdwurds In Xo. 2,
and Judge George S. Ferris, of Lu
zerne county, in Xo. 3. The libel case

The first of the numerous cases grow
ing out of tho strlkp which will be

Borden and Mrs. Josephln6 McCouskl,
of Priceburg, were arraigned for com
mitting an assault and battery on John
Button, ii neighbor, who Is a pump
runner at the Johnson mine at Price
burg. Burton's story was that on the
evening of July 'Si last, lie as on his
way home from work when the two
defendants met him. Tliey had a num
ber of stones In their aprons, and utter
calling him a "scab" and like names
they pelted him with stones. His tes
timony was corroboiated by three wit
nesses. DEFEXSE A DENIAL.
The defense was a complete denial ot
the stone throning. The women said
that Button was crossing Mrs. Mc
Couski's lot nnd they told him not to
do that. Ho replied by calling them
vile names. They hud some woids, but
no stones were tin own. Attorneys Jo
seph O'TJrien and J. E. Burr, of the
Xew Yoik, Ontario and Western com
pany, conducted tho prosecution, und
Attorney John J, Murphy, counsel for
the mine workers, the defense. The
jury found both women guilty, but rec
ommended them to the extreme mercy
of the court,
James Cook, of Priceburg, was tried
before Judge Xewcomb for tho theft of
coal picked on one of the dumps at
Priceburg. Frank Yurko said the coal
was picked by him and was his prop
erly, and that Cook had It carted to
his home, Cook declared that he
picked the coal. Both parties had a
number of witnesses to support their
claim to ownership. The jury found
Cook guilty.
Chauncey C. Johnson did not appear
to prosecute n charge of larceny by
bailee against Harry Snlt7., and a ver
dict of not guilty was taken. When
tho case against Xazareuo Pascollnl,
