The verdict of guilty and recommendation
to the court in the case of Poor Director
Neri Dietrich, charged with bribery on a pre-
sentiment of the March Grand Jury, seems to
be the only conclusion that could be reached
under the evidence. The jury did not have
very hard battle to decide what verdict to
render, though they did believe that the de-
fendant was strongly tempted in the matter
of appointing physician at the almshouse
There was no doubt on the equestion of taking
the money because this was admitted by the
defendant himself 1t is generally believed
that custer from office will be part of the
sentence imposed by the court.
