Geo. ID. Lord, (son of Jarvis Lord,
head centre of the New York Canal Ring,
for many years Democratic leader in the
central and western counties Of New York,
and member of the state senate, is a
shrcwd, active, bold man, of fine address,
free with his money. and had large fol-
lowing from Syracuse to Buffalo. While
he was a member Of the assembly, he put
through the legislature a bill to reward a
corrupt canal contractor on the condition
that the spoils were to be divided between
them. Gov. i'ilde ems canal commission
ferreted out the facts, and the result is the
condemnation of Lord, after two trials, for
crime which subjects him to fine and i'm
prisonment in the peuitentiary.
The last trial closed at Albany, on Sat
mday. The jury were out one hour and
found verdict Of guilty. Lord gave bail
in $25, 900, his father, Jarvis Lord, be-
coming security. The conviction has been
received by tue friends of canal reform as
great encouragement toward the impor-
tant civil cases before tue same judge
| Daniels-who heard the Lord case. The
general expression seems to be, by those
who are not identified with the canal ring
that it was great victory, because it was
hardly to be believed that juries would
convict man for what seems to be con
sidered an every day crime of all legisla
tors. The canal ring men are panic
