OF Murdering Mrs.. Gentry.
Frank J. Constantine was convicted
In Chicago Sss vday night Of murder
Ing Mrs. Ar Gentry and his SEN
tence fixed at Imprisonment for life.
After battling for two and one half
hours over the fate of the prisoner the
jury delivered finding of guilty, and
fixed his punishment after the shortest
murder trial In the history Of Cook
County.
Foreman Krogness said: There was
never any doubt about Constantine's
guilt, but owing to the circumstantial
evidence the penalty of life imprison-
ment was agreed upon by the jury
The verdict, 1t Is reported, was
keen disappointment to those in the
courtroom who had followed the course
OF the trial. They expected a death
sentence. Constantine chewed gum and
said nothing when the verdict was read.

explained his flight by the fear that he
would never be able to prove his inno-
cence-by the panic that seized him
when he realized how all the circum-
stances pointed against him.
The story was lucid enough, but Con-
stantine made poor impression as
witness. He contradicted himself sew
eral times as to dates, seemed greatly
i'll at ease at moments and was seldom
convincing. A boOtblack, as he adj
mitted himself to be, he still protested
from the witness stand that the blood
of royalty in his veins.
And thus the curtain is drawn upon
a tragedy the like of which Chicago
has not chronicled in many year. 1t
was one of such brutality as to shock
and awe society. Constantine, almost
a member of the Gentry family, who
had represented himself to be the son
of a millionaire in New York when as
n matter Of fact he was a profigate
ex-bootblack, deliberately slashed to
death the woman who had befriended
him and who had housed him and lent
him money. Then he fled.
1t was long and persistent hunt. FL
nally he was captured when about to
sail for Italy, the home of his ances-
tors, where he claims some of them
were members Of the royal family. He
had gone to Italy Immediately after
the commission of the crime. had been
swept by the winds of idleness and the
Inconsistencies of ghosts into other
lands, and finally, impelled by that in
tangible instinct that belongs to all
criminals, had to return to the country
of his crime.
Finding the police determined to
have him, that the memory Of that
tragic January day had not been for
gotten, fearful lest he be unprecedented
and brought back to the bar of justice,
he was about to sail away again, when
he was arrested.
