8 TITE OMAHA DAILY BJSEt THURSDAY , JANUAKY 2 . 1890. JAMES ion IS SENIMU Court Orders Him to the Penitentiary for Fifteen Months , WHY HE PLEADED GUILTY IS EXPLAINED Clone Confinement In Jnlt AVnn llrcnklniT Him Dimn Cnimlr At torney Joined In AdtUliiR Clonienej Mm. Isli'it CIINC. James C. lah was sentenced .yesterday by Judge FawceU to serve a term of fifteen rnonthn In the penitentiary and to pay the costs of prosecution. At 10 o'clock Judge Fnwcett appeared In court room No. G and was followed soon afterward by Ish'g attorneys. County At torney Daldrlge entered the room ft few moments later and Ish was brought In by Jailer Sliand. Ish has Increased not less than twenty pounds In weight since his In carceration and while the confinement has blenched his rlln until ho Is as fair as a Elrl , there are no visible evidences of a fail ure of his health. Ho was very quiet and huu nothing to s y bfyond shaking bands With his counsel and exchanging greetings. When court convened Judge Ka\\cett asked the county attorney If ho had anything to Bay. Mr. Dnldrlgo said there was nothing oxcrpt that he ; would recommend the court to exercise clemency In passing sentence upon Ish. Ho eald ho had made no agree ment with the attorneys for the defendant , but had arrived at the conclusion. In hla own mind , that a light sentence was nil that would be justified by the circumstances. Ho had made as strong a case at the first trial as It was possible to make and had secured nothing but a disagreement. Many of his most Important witnesses had gone from the jurisdiction of the court end ho could not hope to make as strong a case at the second trial. He could hope for nothing more than a conviction for man- clftughter and ho thought the plea of guilty entered by the defendant had accom plished all he could hope to accomplish by n trial and It would save the county several thousand dollars. WHY HE 1'LEADED GUILTY. Counsel for I he defense were then askoJ by the court If they had anything to offer. At- torrcy Bradley , epcaklng for himself and his colleagues , said they were satisfied that the state could not convict of anything more Eerlous than manslaughter and the plea of guilty had not been entered on account of nny fear as to the result of a trial , but for an entirely different reason. The defendant had berne thefirst trial well and had maintained bis usJU ! vigor , but after the result was reached ho had broken down completely and was physically prostrated. U had become Im peratively necessary , ho said , that the de fendant escape from the close confinement of the county Jail. His counsel had con cluded It would bo better for him to go to the penitentiary than to remain In the Jail awaiting the result of another trial. The speaker expressed the hope that the sentence of the court might bo a light one. He said ttore had been no agreement between conn- Bel , but the defendant threw himself upon the' mercy of the court. The prisoner had boon confined In Jail about seven months and counsel hoped this time would bo taken Into consideration In Imposing sentence. At the conclusion of the remarks by the attorneys Judge Pawcett addressed the small audience which had gathered by this time. Ho said the case was a peculiar one. Ho felt In a strange position for the reason that he had not been familiar with the circum stances of the case or the evidence. He said lie had been out of the city during the trial and .had made It a practlco never to read reports of vcrlmlpal trials In the news papers. He had conferred with Judge Keysor , who presided at tho" first trial , and would bo governed largely by what he Bald. Judge Keysor had Informed him that after hearing the evidence he was convinced that Ish was either guilty of murder or ho was not guilty of anything. The Judge had also Informed him that he did not believe It would bo possible to even con vict lah of manslaughter , and that he ( Keysor ) thought that Ish should either suiter the penalty for murder or bo set free. Tfce court further said that the county attorney had acted wisely , under the circumstances , In accepting a plea of manslaughter , and ho did not think any censure could attach to the c&unty attorney for to doing. QUESTION OP CLEMENCY. Continuing , the court said that the ques tion to be decided was. What should be done with the prisoner ? In the opinion of Judge Keyror. If ho was not guilty of murder ho should bo set freet It was Impossible for the court to sentence him for the crime of mur der and It was also Impossible for the court to set the prisoner freo. Ho had been rec ommended to the clemency of the court. The question arose , What would "bo clemency under the circumstances ? Ho raid ho did not think the time the prisoner had spent In Jail Miould be taken Into consideration. The fact tat ) ) ho had not been acquitted at the flrot trial rhowed that ho wao not unjustly re strained of hla liberty. Referring to the statement that Isli's health had been Im paired by his confinement , the court raid this might bo a fact , but It was apparent that ho iwas not a wreck by any means. Ish was then called before the court and tie effect of his plea again explained. Ho waa asked If ho still desired hta plea of Bullty to stand. Ho replied In the alllrma- tlvo and the court then pronounced pcntence , saying 'hat It was the opinion of the court that ho ehould spend at least one year In the penitentiary. The sentence was that Ish be confined In the penitentiary for the period of fifteen months and pay the costs of prose cution. Ish took his sentence without nny emotion and Immediately accompanied the Jailer back to his cell. Now that Ish has been disposed of , Interest centers about Mrs. Ish. H IB conceded by all familiar with criminal matters that the only thing to bo dene. In view of all the factJ , Is to dismiss the case against her. TJ'ero Is no such thing In criminal law as an accessory to tile crime of manslaughter. Hence , If Ish killed William II. Chappie. It Is urged that Mrs. Irlt could not have killed him. Iflh has confessed , by his plea of guilty of manslaughter , tint ho killed Chappie , U therefore follows , the attorneys say. that Mrs. Ish 1s Innocent of the crime. Neither the county attorney nor ( ho nttornoyu for Ish would dlrcuss this phase of the question , but there are strong Indications that both sides Jinvo reached this conclusion , although there is nothing to show that this conclusion Is the result of any conference between them on this point , and , In fact , both sides deny that the matter hau been discussed between them , Mother mill DiiiiKlitfr H . | IIV < | .

Content DIM cloiii'il n WroiiK Count In the SOCMMII ! Wnril. The progress of the counting of the votes In the Ouncan-Lcmly election contort has de veloped features which may change the rcsull of the election , so far as the contestant and contcsteo are concerned. The twenty-fifth district counted was the third dlftrlct of the Second ward. The ofltclal returns from this district gnvo Lemly a tctal of ICC , but the , count by the county Judge showed that the actual number of votes cast for Lemly was only 148 , thereby entirely wiping out his original majority and giving Duncan a majority of one , on the basis of the official count. AD n matter of _ fact , the can- vasi of the vote In the county court had In creased Lomly's majority by five votes , so that the change made by this district reduced his actual majority over Duncan to four. The election board In this district was com- poeod of the following men : W. D. Rtiilcllffc , S. A. Corncer. 0. L , Salisbury , W. W. Hart ley and W. H. Uoverly , Judges ; Arthur Pu- lask ! and D. Ultter , clerks ) . W. W. Hartley , ono of the judges , stated that the method of counting pursued by the board had been to divide the ballots among all the judges and each man gave the clerks the number of votes In his pile , for Allan , for Instance , the clerk making a footing to find the total vote for Allan , and then maklne the proper num ber of marks on Hit tally sheet. He also titnted that the Judges did not afterward verify the entries made by the clerks to nee If they agreed with the figures given them. At the closing of the afternoon session of the court thirty-eight districts had been counteJ , Including nil the wards except the Fourth. Fifth , Sixth and a portion of the Seventh , thcr net result being that Lemly's majority was ten votes over Duncan.

Some of them , are cunning little bundles of feathers , Others and the mn- Jotlty arc mastodons In size and look big enough to furnish cftch a meal for a hctel. Between those two extremes , they run through the entire gamut of sizes. In tlic Inrguago of the fanciers , they are al "birds. " The average visitor leaves the show with the virus of poultry raising actlvo In his blcod. He dreams of breeding and breeding until he hatches an ostrich out of a diminu tive ojg and Use ; him as a cart horse erIn In place of a bicycle. Desplto the fact that the quarters of the ehow ate not all that might be'ticalred , there was a good attendance yesterday afternoon the second day. In addition to showing what a chicken can bo really made the show furnishes an attraction from an artistic point of view. Al colors from pure white to pure black are shown on the "birds , " sometimes on one ol tl em. Then there are different styles , bald- hetded ones , some with n modest top piece and others with a chrysanthemum orna mentation which would cause a foot ball player to turn u , palo Nile green from envy.

PAPERS READ LAST NIGHT. The State association held the second ses sion of the convention In the Board of Trade rooms last night. "Chickens" was the topic , and all the stages of the education of hens and pullets , cocks and cockerels , were gone over and dlsausrcd. .There was a consid erable argument about the merits of "scrub'1 and "thoroughbreds , " but the general opln- ; Ion Eijemed to bo that the blue blood was at the head. It appeared to be decided , tooj that a hen or pullet which did not retire to her coop In the evening and staysd out all night wan no lady. "I have no use for nny such bird , " said one of the disputants. "She Injures her con stitution by so doing , because late hours are as bad for a self-respecting hen as for n woman. Besides , If she Is out late on win ter nights , she stands a chance of having her feet frozen. " The question of health cut a large figure In thediscussion. . One of the fanciers claimed that by too close confinement In the winter a hen became "pale , " and that she had to spend too much time In the spring In feeding upon green things In order to bring her complexion up to the standard again. The point remained undecided. The proceedings opened with a paper from F. B. Donlsthorpo of Geneva , the vice presi dent of the association. His topic was "Nothing Succeeds Like Success. " He argued that the present civilization was n piled up maos of part successes despite the fact that a lot of croakers wore complaining that hard times were harder now th.in they were In the days of thnlr fathers and grand fathers. To this complaint Mr. Donlsthorpo demurred. He he'd that the trouble was with the croakers themselves Inasmuch as they did not find the niche which they were flitted to fill. Ho paid that It was the same way In chicken raising. Not a third of the people In tha state knew the difference be tween a chicken and a hedgehog , and yet they wanted to make a success at poultry raising at onco. If they did succeed Mr. Donlsthorpe said that the business paid much better than raising hogs or horsss. PETERS DISCUSSES DISEASES. Dr. A. T. Peters of the United States ex periment station at the State university had a paper on "Poultry Diseases. " Ho went through the entire list from cholera to llcp and gave the cure ? that he considered best from his experience and experiments. Hie paper was stocked with Interesting ac counts of experiments that had been made on chickens during the past year. The program was closed with a paper on "Mating Breeding Stock , and Brooding Young Chicks , " by John R. Megahan of Lincoln. Ho held that strong offspring could not bo expected from other than well developed couples of good blood. He gave the proper treatment for young chicks for .every day of their lives until they were eight weeks old , when they could get out to hustle for their own living. The papers created n considerable amount of discussion which finally centered on the point of whether the woolly headed or the bald headed "animals" wore of most we In the world , .

The girl says that one day , soon after Thanksgiving , Savage asked her If she over went down town. She replied In the nfllrmatlvo , and Savage agreed to meet her ono afternoon at Sixteenth and Farnam ptrcets. The appointment was kept by the two. Savage , she says , suggested that she accompany him , and although she at first objected , she finally went with him to a flat at 705 South Thirteenth street , occupied by a Mrs. Hubler , and without seeing the land lady retired to a rooni. The girl alleges that she went to the Mme place on one other occasion with Savage. She sayj that the date was December 20. and this IB the day mentioned In the Information The girl has heretofore , berne a good rcpu tatlon.

Ills attorney says that ai effort to secure a bond will bo made In a dav or two. . "Wo have a strong case against him , " remarked the county attorney. "In addition to the statements of tlio girl we have the testimony of Mis. Ilitbler's boy , who cat Identify her as the girl whom Savage brough to his mother's house. I have little doub of his guilt. " Savage Is well known , especially amont , the lawyers of the city , on account of Ills position In the criminal court. His family consists of his wife , wno has been 111 for months , and three children , ono boy ant two girls. It Is said that the family Is In poor circumstances and that on account of her Illness the wife Is In no position to earn her support and that oE her children.
