Allen.. 236 North Commercial Street - - Hardware and Machinery NOOSE CLAIMS TWO CONVICTS (Continued from page 1) Neither of the defendants be trayed any emotion while the slip of paper that meant life or death to them was being read. Kelley, however, appeared pale and nerv ous when he entered the court room and anxiously eyed the door and the jury. While the verdict was being read he sat with his eyes down and did not move a muscle. Wilios entered the room as he has during the past 10 days, swinging his shoulders boldly, ap parently without a care in the world. His face, though, was flushed more highly than usual. He was chewing gum. False hopes were arou.sed in thd breasts of the condemned iconvicts at 11:30 o'clock Monday morning. when the jury, wearied from its long deliberations, appeared in the courtroom and asked for further instructions from Judge Kelley. Information was sought regarding the law and whether they would be permitted to bring in a verdict against one of the defendants and report a disagreement upon the other. They were informed by the court that they could. They then retired and again resumed ballot ing. Roth Kelly and Wilios were in the courtroom when the jury came in for instructions during the morning, and prior, to the Inquiry, appeared to be in excellent spirits. Wilios. talking to Deputy Sheritf Roy Bremmer. pointed to his shoes, a nearly new pair.- v "Well, I hope to live long enough to wear these out," he laughed. Toe courtroom was crowded when the jury reported back with its verdict. Kelley parents, who had attended both the Murray and the Kelley-WilJos trials, were not present when the verdict was read. The crime for which the three convicts have been condenmed was for kiUing James Sweeney, a guard at the prison. All three were also indicted for Guard Hol man's death, but were not tried on that count, although, according to District Attorney John Carson, they would have been had the jury disagreed in this case. Kelley and Wilios were not accused of having actually fired the shot that ended Sweeney's life, but were held guil tv of participating in a conspiracy that resulted in the killinf. In this respect the case was a parallel to the trial of tile men found guilty of killing Sheriff Til Tay lor of Pendleton. Murray was convicted of firing the fatal shot that killed the guard in tower No. 1, but under the Ore gon statutes, all those found guil ty of being parties to a conspiracy of this nature in which a death re sults, are liable to the death penal ty. It was held by the state that Kelley and Wilios, by taking part in the break and giving their as sistance to Murray and Oregon Jones, aided them in the killing. It was not shown that Kelley ac toually fired a shot, although Wil ios admitted on the stand that he shot three times with a revolver. The members of the jury that decided the fate of the two con victs are: Alfred B. W. Hughes. Central Howell farmer, the fore man of the jury; Arch Jerman, Sa lem, farmer; Charles L. Parmen ter, Salem, carpenter; John W. Gamble, Salem, fruitman; L. W. Durant, Woodburn, street commis sioner; Thomas C. White, Salem, laborer; James W. Bellamy, Sa lem, retired farmer; Charles Griggs. Salem, groceryman; John C. McFarlane, Quimby. retired contractor, Louise M. Hager. Sa lem. Nellie B". Simpson, Sydney, and Helen II. Tate, Stayton, house wives. The jury was publicly thanked by Judge Kelly, who, a. though oi course, not commenting on the verdict, declared that the mem bers of the jury had well lived up to their oath in persisting in an attempt to reach a verdict. , .
