BEATTY FOUND GUILTY A BPEEDY VERDICT GIVEN. The Jury Takes But Nine Minutes to Find Him Guilty of Poisoning. Judge Stowe’s Charge to the Jury. A verdict of guilty as indicted was ren- dered at Pittsburg in the case of R., J. Beatty, - charged with poisoning the non” union workmen at Homestead. The jury wasout a very short time. It was nine minutes from the time they entered their room until they reported their verdict ready This is accounted jfor principally, by the fact that the evidence was all in and the ad- dresses were made the day before, so that the jurors had all night to think about their verdict. ‘Ihe effect upon Beatty was pitiful to see. He startled as though he had received an electric shock, then his lower ‘jaw dropped and his muscles relaxed. His arms fell to his side and he showed plainly that he had been dealt a terrible blow. There was per fect silence. all eves were turned on him. At a silentjndd from Judge Stowe his keeper tap. ped him on the shoulder and beckoned him to follow. Beatty started as the hand touched him. He uttered a heavy sigh and slowly followed his leader to his cell. The attorneys for the Commonwealth say that for the counts on which Beatty was found guilty it is legal for the Court to sen- tence him to 25 years in the penitentiary. Attorney Brennen was asked what the de- fense would do now. and replied that noth- ing had been decided upon. : as Stowe in his charge said: ‘*You will see that there are two distinct and separate charges made in different ways in regard to means and result—one of attempting to mur- der and injure Griffith the other of attempt- ing to murder and actual injury to others than Griftith unknown to the grand jury. Upon their indictment if the jury believe the poiscn wag the means used, and the de- fendent is guiity of using it with intent fo injure and sicken any person comprehend- ed within the indictment, that is to say W. E. Griffiths or others then unknown to the grand jury, then your verdict must be guilty in that charge, alleging the use of roison and it will be unuecessary to direct your attention to the other counts merely alleging the intent without reference to the means us to commit murder, do great bodily harm to W. E. Griffiths and others, for the reason that the charge of poisoning includes the other charges. "And if the de- fendant is guilty of the former, it necessar- ily involves thelatter. The whole evidence seems to me to point to the use of poison if anything was used to sicken the workmen by the defendent, and if that was not used I think the jury should acquit, Butif poison was used, as allezed by the commonwealth, and Griffiths was injured by taking it, un- der the circumstances he states, whoever was intentionally instrumental in _adminis- tering or having administered to him was guilty of the felony charged in the indict ment, legally involving the intent to mur- der, although such persons may not have actually intended to injure Griffiths in par- ticular nor to take his life. When one ad- ministers poison with in ent to injure and <icken another, and such person dies from the effect of the injury it ia murder, at least of the second degree, under our statue, al- though it may be apparent that his intent was actually not to take life. : So it is when one person prepares to kill or injure another and in pursuance of such original design, accidentally given to the wrong person, then he must inquire into what is meant by poison under the statute. The satisfactory definition I find is “a sub- stance that has an inherent deleterious property, which renders 1t when taken into the system in small doses capable of destroy- ing life or deleteriously acting on the body when taken in small doses," : *The testimony in this case, so far as it tends to show that any substance was used to sicken and injure the parties to whom it was administered points so strongly to poi- soning of some kind, that it seems to me as before stated thatthe jury will probably have no trouble in concluding from the evi-’ dence that if any deleterious substance by the authority or connivance of defendant that thing was a poisonous character in the proper and legal rense of the term‘ ‘poison.’ “The jury will readily remember the evi- dence which tends to show the character of the powders claimed to have been used without reference to it by me.” = Judge Stowe then went over in detail the meaning of all the,counts and instructed the jury how to convicton certain counts, if they did not wish to convict on all, He also reviewed in detail the evidence of Gal- lagher and Davidson, showing in what points they were corroborated. In showing this the court says: We may say here both Dempsey and Beat- {y corroborate Gallagher in respect to his Beatty's) em oy ment to secure persons, among them Gallagher, to go to the mill for purposes other than cooks were ordinarily employed for by the managers of the works. “But here ig where the difference arises, where the guilt or innocence of Beatty un- der this indictment depends. Whether you ive credit to the story of Gallagher and avidson as to his connection with the of- fenses alleged to have been committed by putting these powders to be used at the mill. The evidence of Beatty and Dempsey, while corroborating Gallagher thus far, differs radically as to what the purpose was. If, as essigned by Dempsey, it was simply to play the spy npon the works and to find out for his own purpose what was going on there, whatever we may think of such business, it certainly will nat justify the conviction of Beatty, even if Gallagher. as he himself says, administered some injurious substance in the food in the mill. But this question must be determined by all the evidence in the case.” : Continuing, the judge said: “If Galla- gher's story is corroborated in any material respect, such as induces you to rely upon oe it eredit, you should act upon it ac- cordingly. deed if it comes in such shape as carries conviction to your minds, beyond a reasonable doubt. you shonld not discard it Simply because it is the testimony of an accomplice, but give it proper consid- eration in making up your verdict.’ CROPS PROMISE WELL.

While the United States Government holds aloof from foreign contentions and marches steadily onward on the road of prosperity, without a thought of | standing armies, it is interesting to note that it is alive to preparations for de- tense in time of war, and has modestly followed out that idea te complete suc- cess in atleast one particular. The Eu- ropean powers have been far ahead of us in the manufacture of gunpewder ard gun cotton, particularly -of smoke- less powder, which in warfare promises to be of great utility on account of its durability, lightness and power. But they will te much surprised to learn that Uncle Sam is in possession of their secrets and has greatly improved upon them. A little over two years ago, by direction of the War Department, Prof. Charles E. Monroe, chemist at the tor- pedo station at Newport, R. I., began experiments in gun cotton, and as a re- sult the Dupont Fowder Company has a thoroughly equipped plant at Wilming- ton, Del., for the manufacture of the cotton, which is the basis of smokeless powder. That this is not a mere ex- periment is proved by the fact that 20,000 pounds of gun cotton have re- cently been received at Newport from Wilmington. Both the cotton and the smokeless powder are claimed to be far superior to the European articles, and, besides, are mannfactured much cheap- er. Experiments prove that the powder is most satisfactory for small bore and revolving and rapid fire guns up to what are known as six-pounders. It is more stable than any used abroad. The powder is not suitable for use in mus- kets, but this is a possibility of the fut- ure, To a large extent it is now used on our war vessels and is adapted to the main and secondary batteries. (reater perfection will come in timo. Ennui of Ofcers. Alluding to one or two conspicuous recent instances, the New York World pays: Neither neuralgia nor drink nor insanity nor debt is necessary to make a United States army officer feel like committing suicide. Slow promotion and lack of occupation causes many an ambitious man to occasionally wonder if life is worth living. Nev- ertheless very few undertake to de- cide practically that it is not. Nothing is easier to demonstrate than that men who are worth any- thing at all must sometimes vary either their employment or their enjoyment. The prcfession of arms opens up the mest glorious possibili- ties in times of war, especially in the service of a nation which is as well calculated to take care of itself as the United States. But it may prove exceedingly lonesome as itis certainly monotonous in times of peace in a country like this, where the arts ot peace are always to the fore, except in the very heat of conflict. In Germany, on the contrary, these hypochondriacs would be the jolliest of fellows, having men whom they could command almost absolutely and having for their imperial master a young fellow who may not correcily understand the first principles of campaigning, but who loves military reviews better than he loves even the empress and his children, and almost 55 Well as he loves his all-important self. In other armies in Europe also the - jaded, lonesome American officer ‘turned European could reflect that millions were toiling and delving for him. Here he sees hundreds of thou- sands coining money and getting cart- loads of enjoyment while he lives off of reveille and taps. But, save for right. mobilizable, does not need to imitate tottering despotism in turning its brave officers and men into mer janizaries. . Stub Ends or ‘Thought.

It will be a surprise to many to learn that, after all, the most im: portant function of the bee's sting is not stinging. I have long been con- vinced that the bees put the finish- ing touches on their artistic cell work by the dexterous use of their stings and during this final stage of the pfo cess of honeymaking the bees inject a minute portion of formic acid into she honey. This is really the poison of their sting. The formic acid gives to honey its peculiar flavor and alsc im- parts to it its keeping qualities. The sting is really an exquisitely contrived little trowel. with which the bee fin- ishes off and caps the cells when they are filled brimful with honey. While doing this the formic acid passes from the poison bag, exudes, drop by drop, from the point of the sting, and the beautiful work is finished. — Horticultural Times.
