CORDOVA
IS GUILTY
Recreant Jersey Pastor Is
Convicted
CHEERSFOR PROSECUTOR
State Attorney Scored ElOpins
Minister Who Attempted
To Reply
CHEERSFOR PROSECUTOR

NEW BRUNSWICK, n. j., March 10.
After six hours deliberation the jury
which tried J. Frank Cordova, the
former South River minister who
eloped with Julia Bovine, one of his
choir singers, for abandoning his wife,
came into court last night with a ver-
dict of Guilty as indicted"
Cordova appeared to be greatly
shaken by the verdict. He will prob
ably be sentenced on Saturday. The
extreme penalty is Imprisonment for
one year.
AS soon as the case was given to
the jury the second indictment against
the ex-minister was called. 1t accuses
him of assault and battery upon his
wife. She and her fourteen-year-o
daughter will be the principal wit
nesses.
When Cordova was put on the stand
in his own defense he was subjected
to severe cross examination by Pros
ecutor Berdine, who tried to bring out
that Cordova in his trips to Phlla-
delphia, Camden, Canada, Mexico and
other places was accompanied by
Julia Bovine. The efforts 10 make the
former pastor admit that Miss Bovine
was his companion on these Journey
ings were thwarted by the defendant,
however as he declined to answer to
this line Of questioning, on the ground
that he might incriminate himself. He
appealed TO Judge Strong, who said
that he need not answer questions that
might lncriminate him.
Mr.. Cook, counsel for Cordoya. then
look the witness in hand and elected
statement that Cordova had been in
the habit OF giving his wife all his
salary. with the exception Of $40 a
month. The prosecutor objected to the
introduction Of letters received by Cor
dova from his wife while he was In
Mexico and was sustained by Judge
Strong, who said:
INtu IL tncSt lttttEs utCiuTeu lldt
II was necessary for the defendant to
stint himself and to cease renting
funds home ! would charge the jury
not to allow such fact to -quash the
indictment, for this is an action
brought by the state Of New Jersey
against the defendant and does not
concern merely Mr.. and Mrs. Cordova
alone Forgiveness by Mrs. Cordova
does not imply forgiveness by the state
of New Jersey"
After Cordova had testified that he
directed his wife to sell 500 worth
of property and apply the proceeds to
her personal needs the defense rested.
In summing up Prosecutor Berdine
scored the former minister unmerciful-
ly, and once Cordova leaped from his
seat in fury, sinking back again when
the spectators howled at him and
shouted. "Sit down" The close of the
prosecutors address was hailed with
cheering, which the court officers could
not suppress.
Judge Strong's charge was brief and
he emphasized the point that the pris-
oner could not he excused because he
had sent money to his wife.
