It will bo rcineml or.-d that Keen was in dicted for publishing In 'ho ' Kansas City Sunday Sun , for which ho was the local corroipondent , llbolous matter concerning W. S. bhooinnUor , who was at that tlmo assistant city attorney , and upon trial In the district court was convicted nna sentenced to three years In the penitentiary. The case was nppailod to the supreme court and the decision Is the one received yesterday.

In tbo matter was received yotu-rday by W. S. Shoumnkar , in u letter from Attorney General Hustings , which stated that inasmuch us the higher court found that It , hail not been proven that tbo paper In which the llbolous matter was printed was n paper of general circulation the offense was not a felony , und there fore not punishable by Imprisonment in the penitentiary , but that It was proper that a lesser sentence should be imposed , nnd advising that the defendant Keen bo at on co taken Into custody before tbo decision wus miido public. Accompanying the letter was n copv of the mamluto of Iho court , and JWr. Keen was Immediately loolieU up and lodged in jail. Technically in mandril. The following Is n copy of the mandate : In the biipivino Court of the State of Ne braska , Silting nt Lincoln , Neb. , September Term , 18'J'J ' To tno District Court or the Fourth Judicial District , Sitting in nnd for the County ot Douglas , ( Jreeting : Whereas.

The decision wns ulong the line of the fol lowing section of the argument of Air.

"If tno court should llnd that the paper was not one of general circulation within tbo moaning of the law , but there was no error otherwise in tlio record , then the ques tion would bo one simply of nxuess of pun- Ibhnieut by the court who pronounced tbo sentence , and this court would have the right tn modify the sentence within the pun ishment that , the court below could properly inflict , or otherwise remand the case to the court below for the proper sentence. " Lectured nnil Scnlcnccil. Justbeforn tlio evening adjournment of court. Knen wns brought before Judnu Unvis forsunlcnic. Ho wus nined if ho hud nnv- thlng 10 sny why the soniuncr of the court should not bo imposed , in reply ho staled that ho hud reformed and was trying to lead n totter life ; u lifu that wns hoiiornalo und which would ovuniuallv make him tin ornit- moiit to society. Ho thought that iho sen toneo should ho ns light ns possible , ns lie hud ulreiulv s uttered a gieat deal. Judge Davis listened nnd then ( julolly re- mnrued ns follows : "It is u purl of the'his - tore of this cnse that out of the publication of that paper many crimes were provoked , not only 111 this county , but in other counties throughout the slate. There has heen at leuat ono homicide which cun fib attributed to no other cause than the publication of thai paper , nnd besides this there bus been ftn attempt to commit another. "Tho police of thin statehas boon disturbed for months by the reports published tn thai paper. The publishers HID morally respon sible for the shedding of tinman blood in the itnto of NotiraBku. H is n slinmo mid a Ois- craco thul iho authorities or this city will purmll tbosu p'purs to bo circulated "upon the btronls , and they are nnwurlhv of public conllUcnco when Uiuy allow inch publica tions to be sold , that the M jtemi'iits therein contained may provoke ussaulu , liomlcUlo nnd Injure the ruputnlion of Ihe cltucns of this state. 1 If iho nialiois us published were true , there would ho no good purpose served , and I want to say Hint I regard the publication of this paper and the pennlbslon by the milliorilles ( o sell II upon the streets hs ono of the grossest outrages that has ever ex isted In tlil.i slate , If n punishment were to bo indictee ! In accordance with the moral re sponsibility of I tie persons publishing the glirot , it ought to be equal to that of utmost niiy crime on the stntuto boons. "Heretofore when you were brought ute this court you showed no signs ot contrition Of regret ; your conduct was tbnt of bravado ; you seenit'd to take pride in the v/ork lit which you wore engaged ; you ehowcd no ulgns thai you went .101 perfectly satisfied , so lone us you could escape- the punishment , " Then followed the Imposing of the sen- ( once. It was 'Uat Komi bo conllnod in the county Jail fur the period of three mouths , pny a line of f300 aad tbo costs of the prose cution , icon Tlio young man was considerably taken Duel ; , us ho expected to go scot free. He had nothing to say , but his attorney , K , IoU. Uiiftli' . arose to object. He said thut ho ox- copied to the sentence and uskod the court to II ic the appeal band. Judge Davis remarked that ho did not know there was niiy appeal from the sentence of the court. If the attorney did notlikt * tbo sonionct ) , ho could go to tliu supreme court ou a writ of error , but the sentence would not bo Auspoudcd whllo Uie case was ptudinp , The sentence of the court means that Keen will spend tlio greater part of the next year ID tbo county Jull , as ho will undoubtedly servo out thu Him und costs , which will sniouutto tsOO In ttis aggregate. In the county Jail when prisoners are sen tenced to servo out n line , their tlmo Is figured t the rule of 13 per day.
