Diehl, of the Associ ated Press, who Is well known by many people in this city, has received a very honorable promotion. A circular has Just been issued from the general office of the Associated Press In Chicago, by General Manager Stone, announcing his appointment as assistant general manager, with the full powers atta'ch- g to the position. Colonel Diehl is ell and favorably known in newspa per circles. In 18S7, he was transferred to San Francisco, as Pacific Coast man ager, in charge or an ine lr.ieresis or the As.-iociUed Press, where he lias re mained ever since. JLAu Tiie only I'ure C-'ta; cf T.irl. r V 'Jsed in Million? .vf llr-rf Reiter and Han sen Will Hang next Monti) When Judge MeP.ridc yesterday passed the death r.entenco upon John Hansen and John Reiter, convicted of murder in the first decree, llio circuit court room was full. Both the prison ers sat quietly with their attorney:' waiting for the word' of the Judge. "L'et tho defendant, John Hansen, stand up," said Jhe Judge. "John Han sen, have you anything to say why the sentence of the coi rt should not be pro rounced against you? "No." replied the prisoner In a falter Ing and sobbing voice. You stand convicted" continued liia Honor, "by a jury of this court, of the most heinous crime tho law contem plates. You have had a" fair trial; you have been defended by eminent counsel, and everything has been urged In your b( half that could be, and I feel entirely satisfied from tho testimony, that the Jury were not wrong when Uu-y cou vittol you of murder in the first de gree; I think the testimony amply war ranted them In fitiilfnrr ynii ouiliv of he highest crime 1-nnwn In the law. That without cause or provocation. you killed one whom evwy obligation of nature nnd everv obligation von had taken upon yourself required you to protect, and anything that i can say at this time would do you no good. ft might possibly lie nn cxainplo (n those present by observing yon in this position at this time; it might serve as warning lo the young man who is just beginning a career of dissipation and just starting on the down-hill road, which has brought you to this position n which you notv stand; it might stand as an object lesson to some young man to stop nnd beware of tho vice that has brought you to this. I take it, that If you' had controlled your appetite and refrained from tho use of Intoxicating liquors, yon would not now be hofnr the bar of this court for sentence. But strong drink and the continued Indul gence In it, has destroyed your man hood and has finally caused you to commit the net of which you have been found guilty. If there is anything that can be gained by this scene in this court, any lesson that can be taught to the men, young or old, by these pro ceedings and by your fate, It is the les son to beware of-indulging in the vice you have Indulged in. Not only in your ase, but in nearly every case that has been brought before this court at this erm, this same vice, this same habit, has brought them here. It has brought many a young man nnd many nn old man to a bitter fate. It has brought you here to answer for tho highest line known to the law. As I said i fore, I am satisfied that the verdict of the Jury is correct, and, while the abil ity of counsel may from time to tlim prolong the trial, it seems to me that in he md there can he but one verdict cached. It seemed to mo when I heard tnts testimony, that if you were al lowed to go out on the street and so il-c-l iiuin jmir irienus a jury, llieir ver dict must havo been the same that ou were guilty of murder in the fin;t degree. Let me assure you, that while you may be able to prolong tliit matter month, two months, or three months-, the possibility of your ultimate escape is very slender, and I urge you to oc cupy the time you have left In trying to mak; some ' atonement fur the of fence you have committed against the law. It is the judgment of this court that ou be taken to the jail of this county, and that ou tlioro be kept in close mfiaeniint until the time to be fixed by tho court in its warrant for your ex ecution, which will bo not less than thirty days nor more than sixty days from this time, and that you from there be taken to the Jail yard of this county, by the sheriff of tills county, and that you there be hung by the neck until you are dead; and may,;od have mercy on your soul." Hansen was then conducted to his cell by Sheriff Smith, and John Belter was ordered to stand up nnd receive sentence of doalh. The prisoner in answer to the court, announced that he ad nothing to nay why the sentence f Ihe law should not he pronounced gainst liiin, nnd then Judge McP.iide addressing him in a manner that the rcumstances warranted, said: "You have been convicted in this case of a most infamous nnd horrible crime. You went out and found a stran- cr who was friendly enough to treat ou with kindness and share his bed ilh you, and, taking advantage of his unsuspecting natufe and confidence, ou went along tho road with him, and for a few dollars, took his life took his life In a most horrible manner. The evidence against you Is conclusive. You did not know when you did It that It ould ever bo known; you supposed that you would be beyond the reach of the law, that there was no one present but yourself and your victim, but the eye of the Almighty was upon you, hn Rr:Iter, when you did this, and ou have been brought to justice ry the vigilance of the officers, who have performed their duty in this case, and you stand hero for punishment this morning. I do not know anything that ; v, a a 40 possibly can extenuate your offence. There can bo no reason or Justification. You were sane and sober. The deceased had treated you kindly and shared his bed with you, and he had treated you as any Christian man ought to treat a at ranger that came along and asked assistance 6r friendship, and you re paid it by taking his life for the pur conclusive that there as nothing that pgsr of robbery. I see for you no ex cuse. The evidence against you was so conclusive and convicting that nothing could bo urged in your behalf. There were no extenuating circumstances. I have observed In you heretofore, some what of a disposition to treat this mat ter lightly, but let mo tell you this Is not a light matter. There is absolutely no escape. Within sixty days you must suffer the penalty of your crime; you must die. Your time is short, and, while you can do nothing In this world while thera is no mercy the law can extend to you, or ought to extend to you, I urge you In view of that fact, to try ard make fionie atonement. Try and til yourself for the inevitable change that must occur, when you will meet your victim before that court to which j'idge, Jury, and prisoners, alike, must rrive nn account. And I urge you now, In the very few short days which this court will allow you, to prepare your self for this, by a repentant frame of mind to mako such atonement as you can for this awful crime. Jtillcr stood with his head bent nnd his eyes on the ground, nnd did not seem at nil Impressed with the sen tence, which was the same as In the chse of Hansen. He has never looked a man In tho face since the' day ho was arrested. Judge McBrldc- exercised tho greatest delicacy In his remarks and while con siderate to both men In view of the fate he was sending them to, his voice lost none of its sternness when he im pressed them with the horrible crimes that they were to answer for.
