The sus pected parties were arrested two ia the city on Wednesday morning, and the one on Wednesday night in Iowa. . . " On Thursday rnorninjf "after the ar- ... i.Tii rest of Dirck was, known, some ,500 or 600 persons asseembled at "the , Court House, to. .hang, the murderer. After earnest soeecbes- by several leading bit-" izens against taking summary vengence, a motion was made and carried to" organ ize a People's Court, and thereupon D. J, McCann was elected President, and J. D. Lauer,', Clerk. The Court .then adjourned to the City Park, and com pleted the organization by 'empannelling a jury of twelve of t the most prominent ci'.izensof the city and county, viz;' 1Iessrs. El .'

Mason vas chosen for the pros, ecution.and Wra McLennan volunteered for the defenca. n The Jury( being ri sworn , ia, a, list of witnesses,oa both sides were , made out, and the parties brought into court ; and then after the trial commenced, every thing was conducted as nearly in accor daLce with legal form as the circumstan ces permitted, . -The "evidence ehows that. Birck has been in the city about, two weeks, that Ford and Deitch canie in from Denver about five weeks ago; that the first, and !ast two became acquainted at the Penn.v sylyania House, w"hereall three boarded; that they were engaged, two or hree tinies together in hunting lost cattle ; that upon one or all of these .expeditions Dircks, proposed that they go. into . part nershid in stealing, stock, and that they did decide to steal one . herd of ahout GO Lead, some ten . days . ago a . plan which was frustrated, by the removal of the cattle, that upon Saturday last a plan was laid to steal another herd some thirty, in .number . belonging to Thomas Hamilton", living near. Bebout's fartri, some five ; miles south-west from town. ; Mr. Ray, a cattle dealer in . the city, was on Saturday approached by Dirckst' who. offered to sell him .a herd, and Mr. Ray , made a part promise to buy Dirck's cattle if they suited, him. . On Monday, Deitch; Went Across the riv- er and sold ahorse. , and bought t.some J 6heep .On Tuesday morning about, 10 o'clock,; Dirck vvent;lQ Hamilton's house, and told the boyt William, Henry , (aged 11 years) that, he would give him, S5 to go and jjet a yokei of cattle some place below Rock . Creek, and;drive tberp with, the herd until celt and . Dire k .and the boy went ,cjT, together.

' Ford corroborated all the'testijiony in regard to the plank for stealing the cattle and the division of iha proceed swdf , tbe sale; and declared they had agreed that 'the boy should be got out of the way" : denying, however; that any one had pro posed killing him.- 3 ' .' - ' j-' Dirck was allowed to stale that he-did lay the. plan for. stealing lhestpck, -hat the other. two were equally guilty .with him, ani were to rf ceivd equalsfiaras of the money'; but he denied killing the boy and said he 'supposed that s the - boy .'got drowned and I that; fsh and'turtUs thad mac'b the. wounds. pu h:i body.;. .-,; . Ou Deitch's behalf he stated "himself that he had rejected'the proposal's 'made to him by Dirck and Ford ;-and thai he had nothing whatever io do with the late transaction. Several witnesses sworn to Ditch's good chaf a,ct$r,; ;Qpd Mr..Sherer. said that he had known him from. child hood, that he had recently been with him to Denver and back-; and that by his ad vice Duchdid on : Saturday:andl Sunday nights last. refused .to go in with the oth er two cu the cattle stealing .scheme. The testimony of others reliezed Diitch' of compliciyi.h" the murder, and -'some-' that he knewwhat was going on..u-.z;' ' -: After the examination of witnesses the councel on each sida , reviewed the evi dence, and'thej' case went to the jury. ' The jury after retiring for consultation returned and brought in a verdict of wilt ful murder against Casper Dirck,-qncl re commended that Sebastian Dietch snd Rich, P.. Ford be, remanded to jail, for further trial before the District Couri. A proposition was then rn'ado to ''bang Dirck imraediatly ; but upon: the xequ.st of many citizens, a respite was granted until 6 o'clock, p. ra., and at 1-2 past. "w0 the prisoners were taken to the cage in tne uourt xiouse. - : ' Workmen immediately commenced the erection of' a1 scaffold on the Conrt House.' square,. and preparations were: made for the awful finale. , Rev. H..T. Davis, of the Methodist Church attended the prisoner in his: cell and gave-him the last consolatiuas that religion can offer. Dirck , made ay-will leaving SS,000 to Ellen Henderson, , and some 2 or 3 000 to his brother. ' . At sii o'clock, the prisoner was brought forth, and placed upon -ine platform and a prayer was offered by Rev Mr. Davis. Dirck then said taking hold of the noose, holding as 1 do by, this rope which js to send me.to eternity, I declareMhat T am ffuiltv of the'larc:env, but cf murder I am not." ' He was afterwards asked several times if he knew who killed ihe boy.'.) He- replied that he did . not. , He then ' said "may God have mercy on my scu!" and the drop fell.
