said to the reporters:

When the news of the verdict got to
the street, fully 1000 persons We're shout
ing: "Guilty. Guilty" Out on the side
walk on White street another crowd took
up the cry, and the motormen of the cleo
trio cars that came along Center street
stopped until there was a blockade of
cars for two blocks. Passengers on the
cars left them and Joined the crowd in
front of the courthouse. Then everybody
seemed anxious to get back into the
building, and the crowd turned and again
entered the courthouse.
Cheers For Molineux.
About 200 of the crowd outside were
told by the officer at the door which way
MolneuX would be taken to his cell.
These went down to the floor below and
gathered in a compact mass around the
elevator entrance. When Molneux ap-
peared, led by two court officers and the
crowd caught sight of him, there was Il
cheer which rang through the building.
When those in front saw him raise a
cigarette to his lips and deliberately take
puff, there was another cheer. Push
ing the crowd aside, the two court Off
GERS hustled Molineux along the corri-
dor to the opposite elevator. A lot of
men rushed up to Molineux and tried to
shake his hand, but the court officers
gave such persons shoves that left them
dazed for several minutes There was
no smile on Molineux's face as he walked
along, but he appeared to be as cool and
as determined as the day he first entered
the courtroom. All the way along the
cheers that greeted him were deafening.
People rushed up from below and down
from above at the sound of the cheers,
but the officers whisked their prisoner in
to the elevator, and he went up stairs to
be led across to the Tombs.

to bamoom near by and drank a glass
of whisky. after which he called for pa-
