TAYLOR GETS A VERDICT.
CoIored Recorder OF Deeds Comes
Out Victorious.


Washington, March 6-The libel ease
Of C. H. Taylor. the colored recorder
of deeds for the District of Columbia,
against W Calvin Chase, the editor of
a local negro organ, was closed to-
day, and The jury, after being out ten
minutes, returned verdict of guilty.
The defense filed a motion for appeal
and intends to carry the case to the
district court of appeals.
The trial has attracted considerable
interest owing to the testimony in
troduced by the defense. Taylor was
charged with gross immortality, both
in and out of office, and with making
illegal political assessments. The
prosecution claimed the charge was the
result of a conspiracy to force the
colored population to make conces-
sions to faction of the race.
