INSPECTORS FOUND GUILTY.
Verdict in the Richmond County
Election Law Violations
Hughes and Schriner Are Democrats
and Turner Ia n Republican.

RICHMOND, s. l.. May 29.-The jury

them OF violating the Election laws
went into the Richmond County Court
of oyer and Terminer this morning and
rendered a verdict of guilty. The de-
PENDANTS. Martin Hughes. w. C. Schri-
ner, both Democrats. and Thomas Turn

verdict. 1t was generally supposed that
the jury would disagree.

Flower to assist in the prosecution,

conviction of the defendants.

who appeared for the inspectors. before
making his address to the jury, asked
to have the Indictments dismissed, on
the ground that they were defective.
The ~efendants were accused of having
elected George f. Cornell from the polls
in the Southfeld District at the election
in November last. Cornell presented a
certificate showing that he had been
regularly appointed as a watcher at the
polls by the Republican County Commit
tee. He testified that the defendants re.
put him out of the polling place when he
attempted to enter. John Timlin, an
other watcher. was also excluded from
the polls
The defense claimed that the certif.
Gates held by Cornell and Timlin were
irregular.
As soon as the verdict was rendered
Lawyer Brooke gave notice of an appli.
cation for a new trial and argument. In
the matter was set down for Monday
next. Meantime the convicted inspec'
tors, who are all well known politicians
of Staten Island, were released on bail.
