How the Other Prisoners Received
tho News of His Conviction.
The New York Times says: No
sooner had the trying scene in the
court came to close, and the verdict o.
the jury been recorded on the register
of the court by Mr.. Sparks, the clerk,
than Deputy Sheriff William II. Shields
and Keeper Richard Clawson assumed
charge OF Stokes, and prepared to take
him back to the City Prison. Stokes
did not say word to them, but walked
down Centre street almost mechanic
ally. On reaching the prison the off,
GERS found that the news OF Stokes con-
viction was already known there The
other prisoners, such as Scannell, King
and Foster, seemed much distressed
over the intelligence, which was
wholly unexpected by them, all imagin-
ing that Q disagreement Of the jury
would have been the result Of Stokes
trial. The prisoners held on charges Of
murder, doubtless from apprehension
regarding their own cases, were more
affected than the petty malefactors on
the upper tiers OF the Jail, the greater
number of whom regarded the affair
with callous indifference. Stokes was
at once locked up in his well furnished
cell, and quickly went tn sleep. He
slept quietly until late hour Yesterday
morDipg, and rose appearing as calm
and unconcerned apparently az he was
on the fret day OF his confinement.
None Of his relatives visited him dur
ing the day. His counsel, John
D. Tow nsend, called at the prison early
in the morning and demanded permits
sion to see Stokes. Warden F,nlay
refused TO allow him to see the prisoner
without letter from the Commissioners
Of Charities and Correction giving the
required authorization. Mr.. Town
send obtained the letter, and bad long
interview with Stokes. Among the in
structions given to Stokes by his coun-
eel was the request that be would not
converse with strangers No one WAS
allowed to see the pr soner except Mr..
Townsend. To-day Stokes will he sem
fenced, and after his sentence be will
he removed from his present cell to one
OF the CONDEMNED" cells on the frst
tier OF the Tomba, and in which be
