I Evans yesterday handed Down an opinion denying a motion fora new trial. Ii the Case of join Iknou wealth is Peter Dietrich which w As argued in court Hen last week. On the same occasion Peter Dietrich was sentenced to undergo imprisonment at separate and solitary confinement at hard labor in the Eastern Penitentiary for a period of fourteen years court convened at 10 of clock w it his Honor Evans and associates Blee and Wagner on the Bench. The court at once proceeded to a Lis pose of the reasons assigned for a new trial which were briefly As follows 1 that the court erred in charging the jury that the Burden is on the defendant to show that lie was so deeply intoxicated w Ith liquor As to be i Cap Able of forming in Bis mind a design deliberately and premeditated Day to fire the fatal shot. If you should reach the conclusion from All the evidence that he was not so intoxicated then his intoxication should go for naught. 2. The court erred in impressing upon the jury that the defendant bad set up the defense of intoxication As a defense Aud that the Burden was upon him to show it Aud so misled the jury from the True ground of defense. 3. The court erred in emphasizing the Commonwealth s Case Aud minimizing the defense. 4 the court erred in not calling attention to the weight of the testimony showing that the killing was accidental and the weakness it and unreliability of the testimony of or. Paules going to show that the killing was intentional and premeditated. 5 in lit court erred in charging that the Burden is us on the defendant to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the killing of Iones was purely accidental. Ltd. The court misled the jury in this that the Dot Fem laut had assumed the Burden of showing a defense grounded on intoxication Aud in not pointing out to the jury the difference in tie defuse of accidental killing. Judge Evans reviewed in detail the entire charge with which our readers Are already Fain i Lar. He took it up Ionut by Point citing authorities to show that lie clearly stated the Law. He emphasized tie fact that the defendant offered 110 evidence in the cause. His counsel endeavoured to show by Cross examination of the commonwealths witnesses that the defendant was drunk of the Border of delirium Kremens at the time of the shooting and that the shooting was the of an Accident. The Commonwealth bad offered evidence to show that the defendant bad shot and killed Jones the deceased. The opinion of judge Evans was that the court could not have been More specific or definite in explaining the nature and character of the defendant s defense to the jury. Upon the question of accidental kill aug the court cited Wharton on criminal Law to show that the Burden of proof is six jul the defendant. In conclusion judge Evans stated a the question of lie a a guilt was a question d fact Umlor the evidence Aud we believe Ilia we properly left the same to the jury. There was no occasion for our iving that tin a testimony of or. Paules was weak and j unreliable. A the charge of the jury must be a considered As i whole. Nye believe a that we fairly fully and adequately charged the jury in ibis ease and that i the prisoner Lias no just cause for oui a plaint. A Nye. Are of the opinion that the in a Ferest of Public Justice require that a j new trial should be refused. The Nio i to Uii is accordingly denied and the Rule for an arrest of judgment and a a new trial is discharged. By the court Charles i p. On motion of Nyi Lliam Utise invest of counsel for defuse an exception was noted and Bill sealed for the defendant. When judge Evans had concluded District attorney o. 1\ Gearhart moved that sentence be pronounced on the defendant. While the judge was Reu Deruig ins opinion Peter Dietrich set by the Side of the sheriff on flu same spot he occupied during the two trials he was looking quite Well physically. His face bore a serious an anxious look but be betrayed no weakness whatever Aud seemed to have steeled himself for whatever might come. At the request of the court he moved in front of the bar with unfaltering step. In reply to a question from judge Evans Dietrich stated that he was 41 years of age. Upon being asked whet i or he had anything to say Why sent once should not he passed upon him he replied that he had not beyond the fact that he was not guilty. The court reviewed the trial Aud explained that the extreme penalty for murder in the second degree was Twenty years. The judge said How Ever that he would not impose the full penalty hut would heed the recon me Dat Ion of the jury for mercy. Passing from the extreme penalty of Twenty years the penalty for the next lower degree voluntary manslaughter the court explained was twelve years. It would not do therefore to fall As Low As this As such a sentence would be virtually changing the verdict of the jury. At this Point it became evident that the sentence would not be a Light one. The sentence of the court was that Peter Dietrich pay the costs of pros mention and undergo an imprisonment in the Eastern Penitentiary at Philadelphia at separate Ami solitary confinement at hard labor for a period of fourteen years and to stand committed until the sentence of the court is complied with the sheriff of Montour county to conduct the prisoner hence in fifteen Days. At no time was there any reason to believe that the sentence in Dietrich Scase would be unduly Light few thought that the penalty would reach fourteen years. Peter Dietrich shared the Surprise with others but lie took the sentence very philosophically. Us Der the commutation act the time will be materially reduced.

Carmel decided to i hold a Celebration in Honor of the Advent of halloween and to the Jovial feast he invited several of his friends. Among those present was Mike Zubah i rom mid Valley near Centralia who journeyed from afar both to partake of Adams hospitality and to judge for himself Ltd of the Beauty of Adams Daugh ter famous throughout the slavish settlement for perfection in form Aud features. Mike partook of Adams Beer Aud in a moment of Confidence disclosed Bis love for Adams daughter it was love at first sight and Mike asked her band in marriage. Adam re a plied that he could have her if she would have him. Mike announced his in Teuton of wooing the fair slavish Maiden and left for Home. The impertinence of Zubah dawned upon Barder and the rest of the crowd almost before the Young Man bad left the House. With one Accord they rushed to the door and hurled Large sized rocks with hoots of derision at the retreating figure. Zubah turned and draw ing his revolver fired at the crowd the first and Only shot a penetrating banter a heart. The noise of the affray quickly spread Aud an officer soon appeared raking Zubah in custody. The murderer was taken before Justice Reed and was committed to the Northumberland prison without bail. He was taken to Sunbury on the 5 30 train yesterday morning Aud now lies in jail. A speedy trial will to Given him. It is said that Zubah is not at All averse to talking Aud is perfectly Frank in Bis discussion of the murder. A Rumor from the jail Lias it that lie is not a afraid of boing banged. They never bang people in Northumberland county anyhow. A supreme court will be invoked motion for new trial in Case of Peter Dietrich will be appealed. Hon. Fred Ikeler of counsel for the defuse in the Case of Commonwealth is. Peter Dietrich stated in Halo oils Burg last evening that the motion for a new trial denied by judge Evans yesterday will be appealed.
