Four Found Guilty in Pennsylvania
Capitol Conspiracy Cases.

The jury in the first of the Pennsylva-

gave a verdict of guilty as to every one
of the four men who have been on trial at

auditor general; w. l.. Mathues. former
State treasurer and James NJ. Shumaker,
former superintendent of public buildings
and grounds. The State claims that
frauds 10 the amount of S5.oO0,000 were
committed. The four men were convicted
of defrauding the State in furnishing the
new capitol. which cost the State about
S13,00O.000 instead of $4,000,O00. the fig
ure at which the contract was estimated.
The prosecution was the outcome of the
political upheaval in Pennsylvania in
1905. which resulted i'm the election of
William III. Berry. n Democrat, as State
treasurer in the fall of that year. Berry
threw open the books of the State treas
ury and showed that the cost of building
the capitol was more than three times the
amount of the contract. The case was
laid before the Attorney General and in
dictments were found against fourteen
persons. When the cases now pending
against the four persons who were con-
victed are concluded the other defendants
will be heard.

forth in a riot at Ann Arbor. More
than a score of students were locked
up in Jail and the Star theater, a five
cent place of amusement, was literally
wrecked. The mob of students, which
numbered fully 1000, directed a "col-
1ege rush" against the front of the
building, tearing away windows and
doors and plaster and rolling the the
alter piano out into the street, where
leaders of the students mounted the
instrument and performed a dance to
the accompaniment of mad cheers and
yells from the unmanageable crowd.
The trouble dates back to a week ago,
when a student IL the audience, who
persisted in giving the Ann Arbor col
1ege yell too often to suit the manage
ment, vas elected and thoroughly
dubbed by a special policeman in the
employ of the theater.
