tions Are Sentenced.

Savannah, Ca, April 13--Greene]
and Gaynor were today fined $575,64S,
and were sentenced to the federal i'm
prisonment for four years each.
A trial Of fourteen weeks duration
was thes fitting climax Of this remark
able episode-one, indeed, which con-I
clusively demonstrates the Implying
and dogged zeal Of Uncle Sam in pur-
suit OF those who swindle him. Here
are Greene and Gaynor about to serve
a prison sentence after nearly seven
years. Of most obstinate fighting, WHILE,
at liberty in Chicago, is Oberlin M.
Carter. once a captain in the United
States army, who was shown to be
crim1nally interested in most Of the
thefts committed by the men convict
ed yesterday and sentenced today.
Paths Lead to Prison.
Carter, on the one hand, has served
his term at atsLeavenworth prison and is
now preparing evidence for presenta-
tion In a Chicago court with view to
obtaining .exculpation.
Greene and Gaynor. on the other, by
their tactics have the penitentiary be-
fore them.
According to District Attorney Ma
rfon Erwin, Carter, Greene and Gay
noh defrauded the government out Of
over $2,000,000. The Indictment
against the last two, returned Dec. %,
1893, charged conspiracy to dcfraud
the United States out of moneys ag-
gregating. $575,749. Since then, how.
ayar. saddit tionaI evidence Indicating
the embezzlement was far greater has
come to light.
The maximum sentence that the
court may impose under the law Is
seventeen years in the penitentiary
and fine Of $575, 900. the amount OF
the embezzlement. The minimum
sentence permissible under the law Is
two years imprisonment and fine
of $1,000.
The battle put up by Greene and
Gaynor has no parallel in American
legal annals. Immensely wealthy
through their peculations at the time
of their indictment, they retained,
both in this country and later in Can
ada, the best legal counsel available.
Fight Costs HaIf-MlIlion.
| A conservative estimate, made yes.
terday by an attorney familiar with
the case, was that lawyers have cost
the defendants at least $500,000. Even
| If this is true it is believed that
Greene and Gaynor remain men Of
considerable fortune.
Their program Of battle following
indictment In 1899, included the fol
lowing interesting items:

where they were when the Georgia In

that the transfer Of Zion City and Zion
church properties to Deacon Granger
by Overseer voliva be set aside.
The attorneys for Voliva contend

the property Of Dowie but was held by
him as trustee. 1t is also expected
that an application will be made for
the appointment of a receiver pending
a settlement of the dispute as to the
control Of the property.

One Of the charges that has been
brought against sDowie, that to the ef-
feet that he had agreed secretly, with
a commission of Mormon missionaries,
to turn over to the Mormon church
Zion and all Of its vast holdings, is
emphatically denied by Dowie. The
only basis for this story, it is explain
