FOUR SENTENCED
IN DENVER CONTEMPT CASES.
Supreme Court Turns Over Another
Batch to the JaiIor.-Severe Pen
alties for Election Frauds.

Batch to the JaiIor.-Severe Pen.
alties for Election Frauds.
Denver, Dec. 11.-Four more men
were sentenced yesterday by the Su-
preme Court for contempt of its in
junction against election frauds, as
follows:
James P. Mullins, nine months in
Jail. $500 and costs.
William Bergman. election judge, six
months, $500 and costs.
]. p. Kitson. election clerk, six
months, $500 and costs.
Patrick Reid, three months, no fine.
This makes sixteen election officials
which the court has convicted of con-
tempt There are three more on trial
and some twenty-five or thirty are
under bonds, but their trials have not
as yet been set.
The mother of James p. Mullins be-
came completely prostrated when she
heard of her sons conviction. and is
now lying dangerously i'll at the Null
Inns home on Larimer street. Mrs.
Mullins is subject to heart attacks.
and when the news was conveyed to
her yesterday she became very i'll.
Her condition grew rapidly worse, and
about 3 o'clock Judge John l. Mullins
of the District Court and brother Of
James p. Mullins, appeared at the
office of the clerk of the Supreme
Court and asked for a short confer
ence with the judges.
He told the court that it was most
vital to his mothers life that the sem
tence of the court be stayed for a
short period until she should become
more reconciled to the matter. The
court accordingly entered an order
granting Mullins parole over Sunday.
In pronouncing sentence on the pris-
oners the chief justice said:
1.-The testimony in this case clearly
establishes that great amount of re-
peating was ndulged in in precinct six
of the Fifth ward at the last election.
The lowest estimate of the number of
votes cast of this character is seventy
one and the highest eighty-three. OF
the number of persons thus voting, the
testimony establishes that one voted
as many as eight times, others voted
two, five and six times. The expert
called on behalf of the respondents
testifies that one person voted as
many as five times.
This could not have occurred with
out your knowledge, especially when
your attention was called to 1t at va
rious times. Youp did nothing to pre-
vent 1t; on the contrary you knowingly
permitted these frauds to be practiced.
The respondents, Mullins and Reid,
are certainly responsible for these
frauds. You were there the greater
portion OF the day. By your conduct
you encouraged and protected many
OF these persons In the commission
of these frauds. That fact is espec-
tally true with respect to the respond
ent Mullins. In addition we find from
the testimony that the respondent
Mullins elected the watcher Hanson.
The court therefore adjudges you all
guilty of contempt as charged in the
information"
Following the sentencing Of the men
their attorney, John G. Taylor, gave
notice to the court that he would ap-
peal to the United States Supreme
Court on writ of error.
