After nearly forty-ulglit hours of mixi-
oils WultiiiK , tlio fouling of suspense shared
nllko by the accused , liis friumls nnd tlm
public , was lurmlnulud Saturday morn *
Ing by the verdict of the twelve
men empanelled to try the case.
By that verdict John W. Lnticr
has been adjudged guilty of the murder
of his wife , though imdor Mich circtim-
Btiuicea a.s would make the crime one of
the third degree , or manslaughter ,
run CI.OSINO nouits.
On i-riday night , when tlio
jury retired to their room for
further deliberation , for three hours
they discussed nnd rallscu scd the case
In all its bearings. At 11 o'clock , almost
to the turn of the minute , they decided
upon the verdict , and according to their
instructions , retired for the night , ready
to make formal return of their action to
the judge in the morning. They slept
soundly all night. At a few minutes be
fore six o'clock , Foreman Uhns. J , Itynn
woke up and pounded upon the door to
summon Deputy Grebe. lie was allowed
to go out and wash and make his toilet ,
nnd in tilew minutes his colleagues on tlio
jury were preparing themselves for their
nppcaranco before the judge. Breakfast
was soon over , and the jury returned to
the court room.
At n few moments after 8 o'clock they
filed slowly into the judge's chamber ,
which was filled with a breathless crowd
of those eager to hear tlio result. The
most solemn silence pervaded the court
room as the jurymen greeted Judge No-
villo.
The prisoner had been sent for a few
moments before , and shortly made liis
his appearance , followed by his two sisters -
tors , Minerva Lauer and Mrs Tiedetnau.
His face betokened but little emotion ,
however much ho may have felt. The
look of keen anxiety on the contrary was
plainly noticeable on the countenances of
the two ladies , who eagerly scanned the
faces of the twelve , hoping to read the
vortlict. Judge Savage sat by tlio ac
cused , Judge Thurston being too ill to bo
present.
The supreme moment had come , and
Judge Neville , turning to the jury said :
"Gentlemen , have you agreed upon a
verdict ? "
"We have , sir , " replied the foreman ,
Chas. J. Ryan , advancing to the desk
nnd handing up the verdict.
Judge Neville took it , and in a clear
voice road :
Iu District Court ,

versus } Verdict.
JOHN W. LAUHU. )
"Wo , the jury , duly empannolled and
sworn to try the issue joined in the
above entitled cause , do find tlio defend
ant , John W. Latter , guilty of man
slaughter. CHAS. J. HVAN ,
1'oreman. "
During the reading of the verdict
Lauer's ftico did not betray the move
ment of a muscle. The same calm ex
pression of stolidity that has marked his
demeanor during the trial was there.
Even when the final word , manslaughter
was pronounced , ho remained immovable
as a statue.
Hardly had the last word been spoken
when Miss Lauor turned towards her
convicted brother and ga/.ed long and
appoalii > gly at him. She did not weep ,
though it was plainly notieablo that she
had hard work to control her emotions.
Mrs. Ticdcimm , tlio married bister , too
was visibly agitated.
The judge turned to the jury and quiet
ly said :
"Gentleman : You Inivo had a long
Biego of it in this { rial , and you certainly
have borne your burden well , and dis
charged your duty. You are discharged. "
Judge Savugo gave the usual notice
that ho would present a motion for a now
trial , ami the jury filed out , , repairing to
their respcotlvu homes , Lauor was taken
back to prlsou.liis sistor.Mrs Tiedoiimn ,
accompanying him to liis cell iu the
county jail ,
WHAT HIS COUNSEL SAV.
Judge Suvago was waitoa upon in his
onieobya reporter for the Itr.i : shortly
after the announcement of the verdict ,
and questioned as to what course the
counsel for defendant would pursue , " 1
have not seen Judge Thurston to-day , "
said ho ; "ho is too ill to consult with'mo ,
but I have no houitauoy in saying that wo
shall inovo for a now trial , and in case
that Is denied , as it probably will bo ,
shall appeal the case to Iho suproinu
court at Lincoln. No , I can't say
when the motion will reach that
tribunal , probably not before July , I
imifat confess that I am disappointed at
the verdict , for I hoped that it would bo
something fur dilloreut. In the supreme
court 1 hope that wo shall have opportuu-
Ity to secure a 1 earing which shall not
, bo uflocti'd In any way by the public feel
ing in and about Omaha , Not that I
Intend to cast any rellections upon Judge
Novillo. Nothing of the kind. I believe
that ho has acted conscientiously ac
cording to tlio dictates of his convic
tions. "
In reply to another question of the re
porter , Judge Savage said : " Latter was
very much disappointed at the verdict ,
though ho did not appear , I will admit , to
bo much aU'ectcd. Ho lw $ been buoyed
, up lately by the hope of an acquittal.
Miss Minerva Latter feels per
haps more terribly disappointed at tlio
result of the trial than any one. Sim hns
throughout lioi-n conlidfiit that her broth
er would bi au''ittu ' | ; I Tslio did not seem
a realize that It \\.ia withiii the range of
possibility that her brother would bo con
victed. "
THE rilOSECUTION.
"I did not expect that the jury would
bring in u verdict of murder in the first
degree1 , " said General Uowln to a re
porter who met him Satur
day afternoon. "To tell the
truth I did not want such n ver
dict I did not want to sco Latter hung.
But I did expect that the verdict would
bo that of murder in the second do-
grco. Still , I cannot say that tlio
prosecution is disappointed , Wo arc In
clined to regard the result as a victory
it was certainly better than acquittal.
Lauor had the advantage of being ac
corded the best defense that any man
could possibly secure , nnd tlio fight was
made on our sldo under certain great
disadvantages that I need not name. "
"The ca o will bo appealed ? "
"Yes , so the counsel for defense sayI be
lieve. But they ought to bo satisfied with
well enough , not try to better it , I am
inclined to doubt that Iho case will ever
be taken into the supreme court. In case
a rehearing is had , now evidence Is liable
to come out , which may result in the con
viction of Latter of murder in the first de
gree. Just as in tlio Bohantian case , the
verdict was changed from one of murder
in the second degree on the first trial to
one of mtirdor in the first degree on the
second trial. "
JUDOI ; NEVILLE TALKS.
"Tho verdict is a peculiar one , " were
the words of Judge Neville , ut
tered Saturday morning in re
sponse to a question of n
reporter , "More than that I don't care
to say at present. Until the case is
finally settled I prefer to remain silent on
the question of the propriety of Iho
verdict. "
"When will you sentence Lauor ? "
"Not until the end of the present crim
inal term probably not for live or six
weeks yet. "
"According to this verdict , " concluded
Judge Neville , "tho clement of malice
or premeditation was not imputed to
Latter in the slaying of his wife. The
conviction was secured under section 5 ,
chapter 2 , of the Criminal Code , which
reads as follows :
"If any person shall unlawfully kill
another without malice , either upon n
sudden quarrel , or unintentionally , while
the slayer is in the commission of some
unlawful act , every such person shall bo
deemed guilty of manslaughter , and upon
conviction thereof , shall no imprisoned
in the penitentiary not more than ten
years or more than one year. "
"IN THE DUNGEON CELL. "
A few momenta before 12 o'clock Satur
day a reporter for the BEE , having secured -
cured a permit from Sheriff Cobtirn , en
tered the county jail for the purpose of
seeing Lauor. Notwithstanding tlio pro
tests of the assistant jailor that the pris
oner did not want to see the newspaper
men and would not talk to them , the
scribe was finally.usliercd into the presence
of the convicted man. His cell is located
in tlio extreme eastern wing of the build
ing , stands on a solid stone pier , almost
a separate prison by itself , and is known
as tlio "Solitary. " It is reserved for oc
cupation by the most dangerous crim
inals , and so completely secure is it in
itself and surroundings that oscapoinany
manner whatsoever would bo utterly im
possible. Ono passes up a winding
staircase to the second. story
of the jail on which the "solitary coll" is
located , and past three heavy iron and
steel doors , before Latter'R apartment is
reached. The cell is really a cell within
a cell , the inner one being an iron cage ,
in which the prisoner is kept most of Iho
time , The outer cell ismore roomy and
spacious , and hero it is that he is allowed
to receive his friends. Here it was that
the newspaper man found him sitting
with his sister , Mrs. Tiedeman.
As the BEE man entered the cell , the
heavy iron door closing with a harsh ,
grating noise behind him , Latter jumped
nervously to his feet , from the rocking-
chair in which ho was faittingatul greeted
the intruder askance.
"Well , " ho said inquiringly. "You
want to talk about the verdict ? " he con
tinued. " 1 prefer to say nothing about it
at the present time. What will my law
yers do ? Go and ask them , they can toll
you everything. I believe they have inti
mated that they propose to push for anew
now trial. "
"You desire to have that course pur
sued , iloyou ? " queried the reporter.
Mr. Lauer did not answer this question ,
but ho did remark that he thoug'at the
newspapers were partially responsible
for tlio result of the trial. "Though
I " ho added "that
must say , during
my trial , the newspapers have treated
mo better than I had anticipated. The
BEE has done the square thing by mo
during the trial. "
"Ye , = , " interrupted Mrs. Tiodoman , the
sister , "John has never spoken in a com
plaining manner of the way the papord
have treated him during the trial. "
"The fact is , " concluded Mr. Lauor ,
"tho prejudice against mo has ( icon cre
ated not so much by the newspapers as
by other means. It has been caused in
another quarter altogether. " [ What the
' 'other quarter" was he declined to
state. ]
Again Mr. Lauor repented that ho did
not want to talk , Ho turned to his seat.
The BIE : man bowed himself out of the
presence of brother nnd sister , the heavy
door closed and the interview was at an
end.
end.Loner's
Loner's actions nro not those of a
broken down man at all. Ho appears if
anything less constrained more at
case than during tlio trial or before.
During the brief interview ho smiled
coolly as ho gave utterance to his senti
ments on the prejudice that had been
worked up against liim. If ho fuels any
deep concern over the verdict of the jury
ho certainly succeeds admirably in pre
venting his countenance from betraying
his emotions.
THE FIGHT JN THE JUUY UOOM.
The contest over the verdict , in the jury
room , according to all reports , must have
boon one of the most bitter ever known
in the history of the Nebraska bar. The
body retired at a few moments before
o'clock Thursday afternoon ; it came out
for formal report to the judge at 8
o'clock Saturday morning. During the
intenvningtimo , twenty-six ballots wore
taken. The llrt one was made without
any discussion a few minutes after the
jury retired to the room , the last one at
II o'clock 1'riday night. Sometimes a bal
lot would bo taken only after three or four
hours of warm discuss/rou ; occasionally ,
again , two ballots would bo made within
fifteen minutes of each otiier. During
the discussion the utmost good feeling
prevailed , though the arguments over the
various points of evidence and equity
were long nnd earnest.
The BEE presents to its readers the vote
of the jurymen at each ballot. It should
bo borne in mind that those who voted
"not guilty , " did so simply on the prop
osition of "murder in the first degree" ;
that many who so voted wcro in favor of
returning n verdict of murder in the second
end degree or manslaughter , Instead of a
verdict for first degree , l-'rom the
varying figures of the ballots , the reader
can judge of what the contest In the jury
room must have been :
F1II9T 11ALI.OT.

The record of the next five ballots was
not preserved. On the twenty-sixth and
final ballot the entire twelve cast their
vote for a verdict of manslaughter.
THE "I'UBLIC OPINION. "
All Saturday the theme of discussion
in public places throughout the city was
tlio verdict. Tlio opinion had boon gen
erally expressed that the jury would
cither find the prisoner guilty of murder
in the second degree or would be unable
to agree. It was a great surprise , there
fore , when the verdict of manslaughter
was announced , and expressions of dis
appointment , and sometimes something
deeper were general. Hardly a man
could bo 'found who had expect
ed an acquittal , although when
Iho trial commenced there wcro
numbers of them. Long before its close ,
however , in fact shortly after the evi
dence was begun , "public opinion" be
lieved John Lauer guilty.
The greatest excitement prevailed when
it became known that the jury had
agreed. All the papers issued extra
editions , and in spite ot the bad slate of
the weather , they sold fast. After read
ing all they contained , the greatest curi
osity was expressed as to the incidents
when the verdict was announced. Every
body who was present In the court-room
was questioned as to Lauer's looks and
actions , how Miss Latter received the
verdict , ami questions of a similar char
acter.
The opinion has been freely expressed
that if Lauer and liis counsel
know what is be t for them they will not
push the motion for a new trial. It seems
to bo the general feeling that in case of
an acquittal an emergency would arise ,
the result of which would bo worse for
the urisoucr than the sentence resulting
from this trial. With the present verdict
the severest penalty'of the law is ten
years in the penitentiary , which can bo
shortened to about noven by good bo-
havior. "Public opinion" considers this
mild punishment , but , as a lawyer re
marked to a BEI : man , "Lancr can run
his risks of a now trial if ho wants to ,
and , 1 tell you , it will bo a terrible risk. "
A LEGAL OI'IXIOS" ,
Kx-Attorncy General Dihvorth , who
Inn had extended experience in
criminal and other cases , is
in the city. In conversation
with a BEE reporter ho said that ho
had carefully read the evidence in the
Lancr case and given it close considera
tion , and it indicated to him more feat
ures of premeditated murder than mur
der in the second degree. "However ,
others may differ with mo on this point , "
said ho , "I hardly think the verdict was
consistent with the evidence. It should
have been murder in the first or second
degree. Still , I do not think that the supreme
premo court will interfere with the ver
dict lor manslaughter , "
Jury Iloom , Onmliu , Douglas County ,
Nebraska ,
The following resolutions , passed by
the jury accompanied the verdict ;
Resolved , That this jury recognize the
humane treatment received at the hands
