manslaughter, with imprisonment as fol-

years; Dolan Schnitz and Canpbell, each
two years; and Toomp, Croana. and

sentiment is that the prisoners ought to
be satisfied with the price. but they
thought otherwise. and protested their
innocence with sobs and tears. The trial
has occupied 10 days. The ring leaders,
Lynch and Butler, are in Jail, the former
at Rock Island, where he will probably
