GRAFaERs FOUND GUILTY.
Sentences Given in the Pennsylvania
State Capitol Scandal.


State Capitol Scandal.
Harrisburg, Pa, March 14.-The
jury in tne first of the capitol con-
spiracy cases to be tried gave ver-
dict of guilty as to every one Of the
four men who have been on trial here
for the last seven weeks Friday night
after six hours deliberation. There
were two ballots taken, but the jury
did not come into court until two
hours after reaching a conclusion, be-
ing out altogether eight hours.
The men found guilty are:
John H. Sanderson, contractor; +;
William P. Snyder, former auditor
general; w. l.. Mathues, former state
treasurer, and James NJ. Shumaker,
former superintendent of public build
ings and grounds. Motions for new
trials were made in each case.
Only Sanderson and Snyder were in
court when the verdict was given and
neither would talk. None of the
counsel for the defendants would say
anything in regard to the case. The
states attorney when questioned, said
that they were pleased with the re-
suit of the hard work.
The maximum penalty for each de-
fendant in this case is two years i'm
prisonment and 81 200 fine.
The four men were convicted Of de
frauding the state of about $13 100000.
instead of $4,000 600, the figure at
which the contract was estimated.
