PHILADELPHIA, March 9.-After delib-
Grating less than an hour yestsrdag morn
ing, the jury in the case Of Henry J. Fair
banks, charged with attempting . bribe
members Of the Ingham- hewitt jury, re-
turned verdict Of guilty as indicted. Al
though the conviction was expected, when
the lame defence of Fairbanks was taken
into consideration. yet Lawyer J. Joseph
Murphy. attorney for the defence, claims
that The verdict was not Just, and was
obtained solely because Judge Mcpherson
permitted DistriSt Attorney Beck TO bring
out the past career Of Fairbanks in cross,
examination, when nothing Of the kind was
referred TO in direct exami nation.
II was shortly after 10 O'Clock when
Judge Mcpherson began his short charge
TO the jury. He told the Jury that there
was but little in dispute in the case. and
he also pointed out the fact that the evil
dence OF Fairbanks was uncorroborated
and, therefore, not entitled to much weight
However, he left IL for the jury 10 decide
the value 10 attach to the prisoners testi-
mony. In conclusion the judge said that IL
there was a reasonable doubt in the case
Fairbanks was entitled 20 II. but II there
was no doubt il was the high duty Of the
jury TO convict the defendant OF what is
a dangerous and despicable crime.

that the bail rs. 0O0) was SUFFICIENT and
that Fairbanks should be given an Oppor-

ruled differently. and Fairbanks was given
into the hands OF the marshal at once.

been learned than Thomas O'Dea. who was

Speaking OF the conviction OF Fairbanks.
District Attorney Beck said: u did not

cases together. For reasons partly per-
sonal and partly public. l did not care To
try both cases at this term of cour,. and
I shall therefore try the conspiracy in
