Judge John F. Phillips will not
sentence the defendants for day or
so. The maximum penalty Is $500
and eighteen months Imprisonment.
Arba S. Van valkenburgh, United
States attorney, closed the argument
for the government. He told the jury
that the defendants had worked the
other guise and that they took care
that rich specimens of ore were pro-
duced as samples so as to represent
the production of the whole mine.
He said the defendants did not put
up a dollar for the mine. and that S.
D. Carbon, who discovered it, was
given but $4,000, when $4,000 had
been promised him. Even the $4,000
Mr.. Van Valkenburg said had been
paid by Frank H. Horn out of receipts
from the sale of the mining stock.
Judge Chester Krum, counsel for
the defendants said they showed their
faith in the mine by their action in
spending $4,000 to develop the min
ing property He said the govern
ment witnesses testified that there
was paying ore in the mine.
Appeal will be taken at once by the
defendants. The bonds, for the pres
ent, will remain unchanged. Although
accurate evidence could not be adj

that not less than $150.000 was in

HARTMAN AFTER ID. & HI.
Latest Move of Railway Wizard Is
Watched With Interest.

New Haven, Conn, May 19.-An i'm
portant piece of history in connection
with the holding of 10000 shares of the
Boston & Maine Railroad company is
now for the first time disclosed. A
considerable time ago when the contro-
versy between the New York. New
Haven & Hartford Railroad company
and the state of Massachusetts over
the holding of the shares was in the
acute stage there came from Hartman
interests an unofficial proposition to
the New Haven company looking to
readjustment of the matter.
Under the plan proposed the Della
ware & Hudson company was to take
over the 10000 shares of the Boston &
Maine, giving the New Haven company
a similar amount of the Delaware &
Hudson shares, giving it a large in
terest, if not control in the latter cor
poration. The Delaware & Hudson has
connection with the Boston & Maine
and holds no Massachusetts charter so
that it's ownership of Boston & Maine
shares would be beyond the reach of
Massachusetts law, though possibly 1t
would have been amenable to the Sher-
man antitrust act. A little later the
Boston & Maine shares were trans
ferred to the Billiard ownership and the
Hartman suggestion was left hung up
in the air and has never been acted
upon.
