her composure, and had resumed the cool,
Indifferent manner than has so puzzled tho
Jail officials during her flvo months In Jail.
KANSAS CITY, June 15. The Jury In the
Kennedy murder case this morning brought
In a verdict of guilty of murder In tho sec
ond degree and fixing Mrs. Kennedy's pun
ishment nt ten years tn tho penitentiary.
Judge Wofford entered the court room at
l':45 and Immediately sent for tho prisoner.
Mrs. Kennedy was brought In a few min
utes later, accompanied by her father and
her married sister, Mrs. Loon. A moment
later the Jury filed Into tho room. When
the Judge atked tho foreman of tho Jury it
verdict bad been reached he handed a
slip of paper to tho clerk. Mrs, Kennedy
heard its contents read calmly, but a mo
ment later covered her eyes with hor arms
and cried aloud. The Jury took six ballots.
Tho first stood ten to two for conviction.
They remained that way until tho last bal
lot. Tho defense gave notice of appeal.
When the Jurymen left their hotel this
morning they carried tholr personal belong
ings, making It evident that they had
reached a verdict and that they were pre-
paring to go to their homes.
Tho killing of Kennedy occurred at GM0
o'clock In tho evening of January 10 last in
tho New Ridge building In tho center of the
business district. Kennedy, who was con
tracting agent of tho Merchants' Dispatch
Transportation company, was sitting at his
desk In his offlco when callod to the door
by Dr. Crof, tho woman's physician. Mrs.
Kennedy followed tho physician closely,
asked her husband If be Intended to live
with her und, receiving a negative answer,
began shooting. She fired flvo shots, all of
which took effect and any one of which
would have proven fatal. Kennedy died al
most Instantly, tho only words escaping his
Hps being "It wasn't hor gun." Before
being taken nway by tho pollen tho woman
kicked tho prostrate man In the face, re
marking. "You will never seduce another
girl." Thomas Kennedy, a brother of th
man, tried to wrest the revolver from Mrs.
Kennedy's hand, when ho was struck down
by her brother, Will Prince. The couple
were married In tho county court on Febru
ary 4 and two days before ho was killed
Kennedy brought suit to have the marrlago
set aside, alleging duress and charging W.
C. Prince, the girl's father, and Will Prlnco
with forcing him to marry her at the point
of n revolver. Tho threo Princes aro now
awaiting trial on a chargo of conspiring to
kill Kennedy. Mrs. Kennedy Is 20 years old
and Kennedy woo 28.
The prisoners father showed no moro
emotion than it tho verdict had been so
many words pertaining to a matter of small
Importanco to tho family.
This caso disposed of, Judgo Wofford
asked If both sides were ready for tho trial
of C. W. Prlnco, and Bert and Will Prlnco,
father and brothers respectively of Mrs
Kennedy, on the charge of conspiracy to
kill Kennedy. Tho etato was ready, but
the defenso asked postponement till Mon
day. Judgo Wofford said he wished to call
In another Judge to sit In tho case. "I am
not satisfied," said he, "that Bert Prince
and tho old man were at tho Ridge building
at tho tlmo of tbo killing." This seemed to
Interest the father more than the verdict
Just rendered, and tho prisoner raised her
bead and listened Intently to the talk about
hor relatives.
