DYNAMITARD FOUND GUILTY:
MUST SERVE TEN YEARS
Maurice Brennan Convicted of
Blowing Up the Olive
Street Conduit.

Maurice Brennsn, one Of the three men
arrested for dyna.niting the Olive street
cable conduit on August last, was found
guilty by jury in Judge Woods court yes
terday and sentenced to serve ten years in
the penitentiary.
4 pathetic scene followed the reading of
the verdict. Mrs. Brennan gave vent to her
feelings in a series OF walls. which brought
tears to the eyes Of some of the jurors.
There was little testimony of interest yes
terday on the part of the State. After the
evidence as to the arrests and the contes-
sions on Wednesday. there was little left,
except the testimony of the experts on the
dynamite. When this was finished the Stale
rested. and the defense opened.
Three character witnesses were placed on
the stand, and then Mrs. Brennan, the de
fendant's wife. took the chair. She broke
down and was scarcely able to tell what she
know. She said that her husband was a
good man, and she knew he was not guilty.
He never had any dynamite about the
house, she said. man named Evans, she
said, came to the house three days before
the arrest and left the package there, which
was found by the detectives. If the package
contained dynamite, she did not know 1t.
Mary Foy. an adopted daughter. 10 years
old. was placed on the stand. She told the
same story as Mrs. Brennan. Then Bran-
nan assumed the stand in his own behalf.
He acknowledged the signature to his con-
fession, but said he was daZed when he
signed it. and did not know what it was.
He denied having anything to do with the
blowing up of the conduit. The jury was
out only short time. when it returned with
the verdict. When it was read. Mrs. Bren-
nan screamed and tried to make her way
to her husband, but she was restrained by
Deputy Sheriffs.
She finally tainted and was carried from
the courtroom to Jailer Huebler's private
office, where she was revived. Mary Foy
also cried with her foster mother. After
