The first five victims brought UP
today were Identified by their pay

The work of recovery was checked
for time after ten bodies had been
brought up by fall Of coal which
had to be cleared away before the

suspense. they lost track OF time ana
thought that today was Sunday.
Before reporters could be allowed
personally to interview the men
brought to the surface. doctors order

form of milk diluted with water and
administered in small portions until
their stomachs could retain It.

smiling and healthy save for weak

rescue OF these men Travelled with
lightning rapidity and the change
from despair TO hope. which swept
over the crowd was almost dramatic
and impressive.
Women who have stood for days
and nights with only the hope OF re-

The latter with the greatest gen.

CUMBERLAND. Nd. June 2s.-
William e. IHodel, sheriff OF Ailegany
county, has. been sentenced to ono
year in the penltentiary. by Judge
Boyd, having been convicted of per-
jury by q jury last Wednesday. Ex-
Judge Ferdinand Williams, who. with
DeWarren H. Reynolds and ]. Philip
Roman, were counsel for Hodel,
served notice of appeal and a bond Of
900 was given with Mayor George
A. Kean as surety. The court direct
ed Coroner George Martz to take
charge of the jail until the governor
names a successor for Hodel
Hodel was tried twice. first at the
April term. the jury failing to agree,
standing eleven for conviction and one
for acquittal. The jury which found
him guilty. Wednesday, recommended
mercy. Hodel swore to accounts for
supplies for the jail which ostensi-
bly, contained only items for the jail,
yet these items represented iuxuries
which the sherdff bought for his own
use and for which the county paid.
although the sheriff Is by law to pro-
vide for his own table out of his per-
sonal funds. The luxuries which the
sheriff bought were entered as 'boll-
ing beef" potatoes" soap" etc. In
this way he secured cakes. pies. pas
try. the choicest cuts of beef, candies
etc.
Judges Boyd and Keedy conferred
about two hours and in the meantime
Sheriff Hodel. with his wife, waited in
the court room. When asked IL he
had anything to say, Sheriff Hodel re-
piled: Your honor. all have to say
is that II I have done wrong, that /
didn't do SO knowingly. or with any
intent to do wrong"
Judge Boyd said that during the
time he had been on the bench he nee
essarily had many unpleasant duties
TO perform and. that tlp. sentence r1e
was about to render was one of the
most unpleasant he had ever been
called upon to perform. "But, COR
tinued the court, yau have been con-
victed of a grave offense and one that
can not be passed upon lightly by the
court. You are public officer yet
you have been found guilty of one
of the gr'avest crimes known to the
law, that of perjury. and now sem
tence you to be confined for a period
of one year in the Maryland peni-
tertiary"
Judge Williams then served notice
of appeal and said the bill of excep-
tions would be fled by Wednesday
next. The bond was then increased
to $4,000 and an order was passed au-

CHUNG SIMS STORY
Does Not Correspond with q
Number of Known Facts
in the Case.

NEW YORK. June 2s-Failure
to find any trace whatever of Leon
Ling has caused the police to give
some attention to the theory strong
ly revived today that the missing
man may not have killed Elsie Sigel
and he himself was a victim of the
same hand that killed the girl.
This line of reasoning necessitates
the rejection of the story told by
Chang Sin who said he had seen
Leon in room over the Eighth
street restaurant with Miss sigel's
body.
But, the authorities declare
Chung's statements have shown dis
crepancies with the known facts in
several particulars.
In considering the possibility of
Leon having being killed, It is re-
garded probable that his body was
placed in trunk as was the girls
and shipped from New York.
