ENDS LONG
TRIAL

New York, Feb. 3.-After- 4 trial lasting
a week Richard Cohen. Simon l.. Simpson
and Isador G. Mann were found guilty.
by jury in the United States district
court yesterday on indictments charging
the concealment OF assets from the trus-
tee i'm bankruptcy with intent TO defraud
creditors. and conspiring against the gov
ernment
a resolution for mercy was made I'm the
case OF Mann. The men will be sentenced
by Judge Holt today. The penalty is
fine OF not more than $4,000 nor less than
$1,000 and a jail sentence OF not more than
two years.
This Is the first conviction Of the kind
ever secured 1t took the government two
years togather the evidence in the case.
The defendants were indicted by the
United States grand jury March 2, 1905.
The alleged conspiracy began about three
months prior TO March 26. 1904. on which
date n petition In bankruptcy was filed
against the American Wire and Steel Bed
company, a concern which manufactured
beds. The president of this concern was
simon J.. Simpson. A few days later, on
March 2S. 1904, a petition was fled against
Richard Cohen. who was i'm the furniture
business Cohen is brother-in-law Of
Simpson.
The creditors caused an examination OF
the affairs OF the bankruptS to be made.
The investigation. IL IS charged. Uncov-
cred the facts that the liabilities Of the
two concerns aggregated over $4,000. while
assets az the time OF tho failure only
amounted to about 5000, the major por-
tion having disappeared.
Isador q. Mann, who is a cousin OF both
debtors, IL is charged was brought on
from New Haven. where he resided TO as
sist i'm the frauds by taking over assign
ments of ALI the outstanding accounts Of
the American Wire and Steel Bed COM
pany, and arranging to ship part of Co
hens stock TO Boston. Cohen, I'm the
meanwhile IL is stated, had been buying
all the merchandise he could get and as
fast as he could he got rid OF IL by sell
Ing at low prices converting II into cash
concealng some of II I'm the city and vi
cinity and shipping the remainder to Bcs-
ton.
While Cohen was thus engaged Simpson
was equally so. and month before the
failure was announced IL is alleged kept
his factory working both day ANA night
and shipped TO his friends many thousands
OF dollars worth OF springs. beds, couches.
etc. However. no record was kept Of
where the goods went or to whom they
were shipped
Counsel, summing up in behalf Of the
defendants argued that the action OF his
clients was not contrary TO the provisions
OF the bankruptcy law and declared that,
instead OF concealment the property has
been disposed OF at public sale.
