August 81 last
Winthrop listened 10 the words which .
condemned him to a life inside prison
walls Tor the rest Of his days with hard I
" s pereepuble movement OF the face or
body. He seemed TO gulp as the words
for the rest Of your natural life" came
trom Judge wsllsce's lips. and his mouth
twitched little. but that was all. The
man. who appears 10 have no humane
feelings or conscience whatever. seemed
70 take pride in appearing hardened.
When Judge Wallace took his seat at
the opening OF court yesterday morning
the room was crowded in main floor and
gallery both. Nearly all present were
men, but the heads Of half dozen or 50
women peered around from behind the
mems shoulders. trying 10 set 8 peep at
the judge and the prisoner. The crowd
wss generally orderly. but il showed the
interest fslJ in the remarkable kidnapping
case, the facts OF which, when first pub
ishsd exclusively in the Chronicle seemed
almost Incredible.
When the Winthrop case was called by
Judge Wallace at 1850 o'clock, Attorney
Bel arose and asked for s continuance
Of the case. as he desired TO present some
matters TO the court before sentence was
passed.
Judge Wallace asked for the attorneys
