Jury Brings in Verdict of Murder in the First Degree Against Woman Charged with Killing Her Husband. PRISONER LOSES HER NERVE, Defiant Air She Assumed During the! Trial Disappeared and She Went Back to Jail to Pray—Accused of Chopping Up Victim's Body. MONTICELLO, N. Y., May 30.—Mrs. (Kate Taylor was to-day found guilty of murder in the first degree for killing her husband, Lafayette Taylor. The Jury, which had been locked up over night, was ready with the verdict before court opened, and the first-degree decision they reached was not a sur- prise to anybody, as the evidence of- fered at the trial was direct on the pot that Mrs. Taylor had killed her husban, and burned his body. : Mrs. Taylor was plainly apprehensive of the result. When brought into court her appearance and demeanor were in striking contrast to her general bearing during the trial. Her eyes were red and sunken and her face drawn in anxious lines. She regarded the jury askance as though fearful of their decision. When ordered to stand, she found it necessary tu support/herself by leaning her hands on a tale in front of her. All the vindictive bravado which hed characterized her actions was gone and she seemed utterly broken. As the foreman pronounced the ver- dict of gullty Mrs. Taylor covered her face with her handkerchief and sahx into her seat, ‘Thus she sat during the subsequent proceedings, and as she was taken back to jail she still shielded her face and walked with bowed head. Mra. Taylor’a counsel will appeal the case.

When tho Coroner's oftice took charge of the body of a suicide, Mrs. Mila Havens, in her mother’s home, at No. 17 Wert Sixty-seventh street, to-day, a story was told of how a family had been broken up by excessive drinking and how she had sought relief in death. Mrs. Havens swallowed about two ounces of carbolle acid late last night and to all inquiries by the police and others her relatives would say nothing except that she had committed suicide by drinking acid, The déad woman was twenty-two years old, remarkably pretty, and her mother, Mrs, Rose Kennedy, Is wealthy, owning the apartment-house in which she lives, besides ovher valuable property.

Mra, Kennedy went to Europe last winter and while she was away Havens and his wife went to live with nis mother. Mrs. Havens attended to her mother’s business while she was absent, collecting the rents and hand.ing all the money. When the elder Mrs. Havens was seen to-duy, she expressed no sur- prise that her daughter-in-law had killed herself. She said: “When her mother returned from Italy last Monday I had to put my eon's wife out of the house, While here she drank excessively, coming home very often while intoxicated. My son and myself remonstrated with her repeatedly and she would promise to do better, but It was useless, I belleve she could not help it, But it got so bad that when her mother came back from Italy I told the young woman that if she must drink she would have to do her drinking in her mother's home, not in mine. “Bince Monday we have not seen her nor have we heard from her. Under the circumstances I do not believe my son will take any Interest in the funeral arrangements. He is a clerk in a real estate office. Neighbors in the Kennedy apartments circulated a rumor that young Mrs. Havens quarrelied with her mother and besides that she Was not on good terms with her husband. ‘The first known of th when a servant of the Kennedy house- hold called Dr. Ver Nooy, of No. 146 West Sixty-fourth street, He found the young woman on a sofa, the beauty of her face seared by the acid. He called an ambulance from Roosevelt Hospital, but when It arrived the young woman was dead, Mrs, Hayens was in a convent until she Was seventeen years old, when she was married.

The charge was never pressed for trial. De- tective Lyon gives this version of the affair: “I had arrested young Everard two years ago on an arson change, and as he has been seen around Harlem in the early morning hours recently, le was suspected. The Fire Marshal in- structed me to arrest him. I went to the breweny and Invited him across the street to have a drink. Then I sald, ‘I want you to come with me to the corner of One Hundred and Thirty-fitth street and Eighth avenue.’ “What for?’ he asked. “Instructions from the Fire Marshal,’ I answered.

The firet car, a big motor, stuck at the ourve, the rear trucks refusing to take it, and the train was brought to a standstill. Persons in the forward cars, after a wait of a few minutes, insisted upon alighting, and some of) the most athletic managed to do so, in apite of the protests of the guards. Those in the rear cars made a pro- test and insisted upon being permitted to climb through the lattice work ot the structure to the carriage way. Guards heid all the gates and explained that the workmen endeavoring to fix the tracks might be through at any minute, and should the train be started a mor- tal aceldert might follow.
