trial of Charles II. Kastnian. formerly
employed in the Agassix Museum at
Harvard ITiiversity, for the murder of
his i>roiher-in law. lliehard 11. tirogan,
Jr., on July 4 lasl. returned a verdict
'of not guilty. As soon' as the verdict
was announced Kastnian was set free.
Ilis parents hroke down completely
and his wife went into hysterics when
trying to thank each juror. Kastnian
received the verdict calmly.
: The jury, after listening patiently
Tor nearly three weeks to a tremendous
mass of testimony, followed l?y
two days of argument, debated live
h'utrs and a half before re:iehin*r a

shook hands with those who surged
about bint the vanguard of a great
rush; for it scented, after the cheer,
that everybody wanted to grasp the
hand of the man who had been freed.
Kast man's aged mot iter was so
overcome that site had to he :ak< t

almost hysterical, laughing nervously,

shook hands with the jurors and
thanked them.
He had nothing to say about himself,
not a word for publication. Me had
expected to be acquitted, lie said, and
never had any doubt about the result.
So great was the exritement
that it was some time before the
judges could thank the jury, and assure
the twelve men that they had
delivered a verdict in necorda i: h

? I>r. I.lxey'* Statement.
San Francisco. Cal.?The sudden illness
of Mrs. MeKinley caused an uuexpeeled
change in the itinerary of
President MeKinley. lie arrived in
this city quietly two days ahead of
the time scheduled. The state of Mrs.
McKitiley's health was such Sunday
morning that the President decided to
leave 1>?1 Monte and bring his wife to
this city immediately to the hoiuc of
Henry 'I'. Scott, where she could nave
complete lest for a few days, and
wheiv n specialist could be consulted
If necessary,
A special ol' two cars and a locomotive
was made up from tlu* President's
special, and the President. Mrs. Mckinley,
Miss Marlicr, the President's
niece; Secretary and Mrs. Corielyoit.
I?r. Kixcy, and Mr, and Mrs. 11. T.
Scott left Del Monte for San Francisco.
having the remainder ?>i the Presidential
party at Del Monte. Only a
few hundred people greeted the President
upon arrival in this city.
When ihe train, consisting of a baggage
car and the President's special
coach, stopped at Valencia street. Mrs.
Mckinley was carried in a steamer
chair front the private car to a closed
carriage in waiting. She was heavily
veiled. s?ml lite President and Dr. llix
cy took seats in tit,- same vehicle. The
rest of the party followed in carriages.
Mr. and Mrs. Scot t had arrived at their
residence ahead ol the President, and
were waiting to receive? their uistiugitished
gliosis. Mrs. Mckinley was
lifted out of the carriage and placed
in an invalid chair and carried into
the house.
Secretary Cortelyou, when qttes- j
tinned concerning Mrs. Mckinley's
condition, stated that there was uotli
ing alarming in her present indisposition,
and thai perfect quiet and rest
for a few days would restore her to
her usual health, it was the impression.
however, of those who saw Mrs.
Mckinley that she is very ill. and that
her present state may result in an entire
change of the President's programme.
' Dr. 1'ixey made the following statement
:
"Mrs. Mckinley stood the trip front i
Del Monte much better than 1 expect- '
| cd. Her condition is not serious. She !
i x\ ill stay h> "e at least a week, and j
l"l Vn Itid'Timt i?nu4 I
. , | >\ ? ? v ? i | v PI. 1 I II I II IV l?%V I I lil 1 1
i111n> sin- will l>e able to continue the j
journey."
Later Secretary t'ortelyou issued the i
following; bulletin:
"Mrs. McKiuley stood the trip from
Monterey extremely well and is resting
comfortably at Mr. Scott's residence.
Iter attack ol' indigestion, it
is believed, will yield promptly to rest
and remedies, while the felon on her j
hand is healing nicely."
The day after leaving New Orleans
a bone felon appeared upon Mrs. MeKinley's
linger. Her hand became
swollen stud gave her consalcable
pain, and produced fever that prevented
her from sleeping. Dr. Itixey
lanced the felon and gave her some
relief in that way. Mrs. McKiuley
bore it bravely, ami urged that the
programme at the cities and towns
should not lie modified in any particular
on her ; count.
It was hoped that the rest at Del
Monte would do her good, but she i
slept little during the night, an., in ihe !
morning, although iter condition had |
improved, site reluctantly agreed to
come to San Kraucis o at once. The j
party got away from the hotel so j
quietly that many of the guests did
not know until evening that the I'resi- !
dent and Mrs. McKiuley had gone.
