Judge Bartlett denied the motion.
Mr.. James then asked for an arrest of |
judgment on the grounds that the facts

Then Mr.. James asked the court to
take into consideration that the defend
ant had never been convicted OF any
felony, and that his previous good char
acter he taken into consideration.
Judge Bartlett said he did not see any
circums tances which would warrant
such discretion. Mr.. James then asked
for a stay of execution of judgment for
20 DAYS to enable the dc efendant to move
on a notice for certificate Of reasonable
doubt.
Mr.. SHEPPARD moved for sentence to
be passed,
Mckane, when asked what he had to

rectly wrong with regard to the election,
nor did ever counsel any one else to do
ANYTHING wrong. | again say that am
not guilty of any offense against the

Judge Bartlett then proceeded to pass
sentence, and said:
Il do not feel inclined to disregard the
recommendation to mercy made by the
Jury. The crime which the defendant
committed was serious one. That
great crime seems to be one that de-
mands an emphatic sentence. The
penalty should be SO severe as to ex'
press due condemnation while not SC
severe as to excite sympathy
The sentence of the court is that
the defendant be imprisoned in Sing
Sing state prison for six years.
There was dead silence in court for &
moment. and then amidst murmul

Bartlett ordered the court to be cleared
Lawyer Roderick said that an applica

Church. James Morrison, Harry Hag-
gerty. Red Collins, alias John Covlng-
ton. and E. NJ. Clark have been ar
rested by the police authorities. Smith
and Church are thought to be the men
who robbed Dahl, while the others are
held as accessories. Smith was locked
in d cell III the central station, while
Church was taken to sub-statlon, SO
that the meN snould have no intercourse.
Dahrs story.
Dahl, as soon as he was able to give
az account of himself, said he was re-
siding temporarily at 594 Jackson. a
clearinghouse managed by Miss Ber-
tram. Saturday night he told Miss Ber-
tram he had been followed by two tough
looking citizens and had returned to his
room. fearing he would he held up. lie
had in his possessi>n. ne SAID, large
! sum of money and was afraid to VEN
ture out late at night. The police knew
that Miss Bertrams mother lived at 10!
East Thirteenth street, and that
number of suspicious characters roomed
at that place. This led to the
raid on the Thirteenth street house, the
police having a suspicion that some OF
these men might have heard of Dab
and his big roll Eddie Bertram, Mrs
Bertram's son. was also placed under ar
rest. The officers found only $40 on th'
eight men and nothing more was dl5cov
cred in the house.
1t is thought Dahl will be able t
identify the men, as none wore masks
The assault was made by two short mel
and one tall one. Church Is shor

ton of affairs May 1, 1871. A month
later tho prospects were brighter. BY
the middle of June Lafayette was IN
hot chase after CORVALLIS and Wash
ington was planning with Rochambeau
to effect the capture OF New York City.
On July 4, 1871, their forces met at
Dobbs Ferry. Washington removed
mis- headquarters frem the house Of Jc-
seph Appleby, which then st cd a few
miles from the Hudson. OH what was
later called Washington's Hill, TO the
Van Brugh Livingston mansion. There
he held many conferences with Ro-
chambeau and the leaders of the Con-
tinental Congress.
Whom Washington learned that the
fleet of the French commanGes, tho
Comte de Grasse, was headed for the
Chesapeake, he determined to aban-
don the movement against New York,
join Lafayette a the York peninsula,
and force the end of the war by COM
pelling the surrender of CORVALLIS.
By u curious chance the commanders
