W. M. Gaffuey Acquitted
By Jnry
"Not giflfcy," is the verdict that 12
jurors returned last night in the case of
W. M. Gaffney, who has been on trial
(or several days in the district court
on the charge of burglary. The jury
had the case about five hours.
Tae ca?- seemed to lorn on the question
as to whether Backdolpb, the soldier,
w is killed by Ben Fox, the Indian, in
the latter's cabin, or whether he was
killed at the place where his body was
picked up, 176 feet from the cabin.
The Indians said that Backdolf and
Gaffney broke into Fox's house early
Christmas for the purpose of commit
ting the crime of adultry, that a fight
ensued, that Backdolf was about to
shoot Fox when the latter hastily
seized a 41 caliber Colt revolver and
shot the whiteman, that Backdolf then
ran the 60 yards to where his body was
found where he dropped dead.
Gaffney testified that Backdolf
was drunk, that he was trying to get
him to go home, that he gave up in
despair and started home, that he heard
shooting, that he looked back and saw
Backdolf fall where his body was dis
covered.
The physicians testified that a man
could not run as far as Buckdolf was
said to have run with a ragged bullet
| hole through both ventricles of the
heart and his body Dierced through
and through.
The case was hard fought on both
sides.
The case against Gaffney for assault
with a dangerous weapon has been
postponed for a week.
