WEEKS GOES TO SING SING.
Punishment Begins of the Attorney
who betrayed His Trust.

NEW YORK, Nov. 9.-Francis H. Weeks,
whom the world knew for years as the
trusted attorney, clubman and man of
honor, was taken to Sing Sing prison to-
day, a confessed felOn, to begin a ten years
sentence for his crimes
He may secure his liberty at the end of
1-2 years.
Probably the only admirable thing about
Weeks is his iron nerve. Never once has
he faltered, not even when the recorder
pronounced the dread sentence
There was no time lost in taking Week 8
to serve his time. Sentenced yesterday, he
was Immediately taken from the Tombs in
charge of Deputy Sherifs Brown and
Burke.
1t was just 9:35 when Weeks between the
two big deputies, emerged from the prison
The prisoner looked younger with his beard
on, but there were signs of suffering that
even his indomitable will could not hide
He carried a package wrapped in brown
paper under his arm.
Weeks shook pands with the keeper at
the Tombs as he was leaving, but not a
word was spoken.
Not soul was there to bid him goodbye
or add word of cheer to be remembered
during the long years to come.
He stood by the door while Deputy Sher-
IN Brown ran to the corner.
A Atm avenue car was approaching
Brown hailed 1t, and the prisoner and Dep
uties Burke and Brown entered. The for
mer took Weeks to Sing Sing.

writes: Il cannot find any reason pre-
scented on this application why the money
paid by tho surety Of criminal for his
appearance and forfeited by his non-at-
pelrance should be rcmitted and returned
1t is not amiss to enforce the lesson that
becoming surety fer the appearance of
criminals for trial is something more than
matter of form"
