ARCHER PLEADS GUILTY.
The Court Sentences Him to FIVE
Years in the Penitentiary.

BALTIMORE, Md, July 7-Ex-State
pleaded guilty to a charge of embezzelment
from the state and was sentenced 20 five
years in the penitentiary.
This sudden and unexpected ending Of the
case caused considerable commotion in all
circles. The trial was set for tomorrow,
and a large number of witnesses had been
summoned. Archer, however, decided not
to stand trial, but to plead guilty.
A CONFERENCE WITH HIS COUNSEL.
Accompanied by his son-in.law, State
Senator Benjamin Silver, Jr.. he came into
the city from his house, near Belair, this
morning, arriving at $50 o'clock. After
consultation with his counsel IL was decided
to go into court Immediately and end the
case.
Judge Stewart and the states officers
were accordingly notified.
Archer in the court room seemed bowed
down by realization of his terrible posi-
tion, and looked extremely careworn and
haggard. When the indictment charging
embezzlemeut was read Mr.. Carter read a
statement signed by Archer pleading guilty
and throwing himself upon the mercy of
the court.
THE STATEMENT.
The statement was In part: II desire
here in the presence Of this court to ac-
knowledge that am guilty Of the offense
charged against me in the indictment, and
also to confess that / have been guilty of a
greata sin before Almighty God; that 1
have proved false to great trust COM
mitted TO me by my native state; that /
have cruelty wronged, not only those
friends who. because Of their great and un-
doubted confidence In my integrity, became
sureties on my official bohds, but others also
who have suffered pecuniarily bee ause of
that same confidence.
HE ALONE TO BLAME.
"The sorrow and misery which have been
caused by my conduct has been shared by
many, but no blame for any part of 1t at
taches to any one but myself 10 is all mine,
and mine alone. No part of the states
money or securities was ever used by me
in gambling, stock speculation, or for
political purposes, nor have | at this time
one dollar left. l, therefore. submit myself
to the good Judgment and mercy OF the
court"
Immediately after sentence had been pro-
nounoed Archer was driven to the peni-
tentlary.
A COMPLETE WRECK.
Archer is now in the hospital of the peni
tentiary, a wreck physically and mentally.
He was so weak when he arrived at the
prison gate that he had to be assisted up the
steps. When the warden appeared Archer
reused himself, shook hands with him
and said: 81 have come over here
to obey the rules and to do whatever / am
told to do.n This was the only remark he
made. He was then registered in the peni
tentiary book and was shaved by the prison
barber. His long, wavy, grayish
brown hair aud beard were shorr
| Off and he was conducted to the bathrooms
| A striped suit was given him in place o.
his citizens clothes, and Warden Weller
read the prison rules to him. Archer die
not say a word, but merely bowed his head
in token that he heard what was said tx
him

report on the silver bill After 1t was read
in full he gave notice that he would call it
up for action tomorrow morning.
Mr.. Morgan continued his argument
against the subsidy shipping bills. The
truth of the matter was, he said, that the
ocean carrying trade was overdone. and
until that condition of things was al
tered freights must be carried by vessels at
a losing rate.
Mr.. Frye made some additional remarks
in support Of the bills, and concluded by say
ing that he hoped to get votes on both bills
tomorrow. He earnestly hoped that both
bills would be sent to the House. and he
believed that if they were one of them
would become law. After a brief execu-
tive session the Senate at $40 o'clock ad.
journed.
