BANKER GUILTY.
ReiChmann of Carnegie
Trust Fame Convicted.
FALSE REPORT TO THE STATE
Jury In Case Of New York Banker De-
cided Against Recommending Mer-
oy For Defendant and He May
Get Year In Prison.

New York. June 29.-The jury which
had been hearing the evidence against
Joseph B. Reichmann took one ballot
and found him guilty of having made
a false report to the state banking de-
partment while he was president Of
the Carnegie Trust company. Then
for about an hour the jury debated cs
TO whether it should recommend him
to the court for mercy and decided 1t
would not.
The verdict was surprise to Reich
mann and his counsel, who were con-
fident of disagreement, if not an ac-
quittal. Reichmann is the first banker
to be convicted in this county of max
Ing a false statement to the bank de-
partment He. did not go on the wit
ness stand in his own defense.
Reichmann was sent to the Tombs.
Justice Davis, before whom he was
tried in the supreme court, allowed
him to remain at liberty on $4,000
bail until tomorrow morning, when he
will be sentenced This was done by
Justice Davis so that Reichmann's
lawyers should have an opportunity to
prepare application for an arrest of
judgment and a certificate of reasona-
BILE doubt The punishment may be
year in the penitentiary, a $500 fine or
both, as it is a misdemeanor for a
banker to concur in false report. 1t
is likely that Justice Davis will i'm
pose a prison sentence
District Attorney Whitman said that
William j. Cummins, who had stock
control Of the Carnegie Trust COM
pany, of which Reichmann was presi-
dent, and whe is indicted for grand
larceny, will be tried in October. and
that the conviction of Reichmann will
not change his program for the trial
of former City Chamberlain Hyde,
who is indicted for bribery, some time
In the fall.
Later, however, James w. Osborne,
counsel for Mr.. Hyde, served notice on
the district attorney that he would
appear before Justice Page in the SUI
preme court today and ask to have the
bribery indictment against Hyde trans
ferred from the supreme court to the
court of general sessions. Mr., Os,
borne is anxious to have his client
tried at once. Mr.. Whitman will op
pose the application.

ijOvernOr Tener for Safe
and Sane Fourth
SIGNS BILL REGULATING USE OF
BLANK CARTRIDGES AND
FIREWORKS.

The crusade for a safe and sane
Fourth of July received a decided
stimulus by the recent legislature and
Governor 1ener. A bill regulating
the use of firecrackers, fire works,
blank cartridges, ETC., was intro
duced in the legislature, passed and
approved by the Governor.
The following act which is now
embodied in the statutes of the
Commonwealth clearly defines the
prohibition and it's careful study
and obedience is suggested:
An Act-No. 2O3.
Section 1. Be it enacted, etc.,
that it shall be unlawful for any
person to set off, fire, or make use
of, for the purpose of explosion, any
fire cracker over six inches in length,
over three-quarters of an inch in
diameter, and any fire cracker to the
length of three and one-half inches,
over one inch in diameter; or to set
off, fire or explode, in any county
in this Commonwealth, any fire
cracker or fire works containing
picric acid or picrates, dynamite, or
other high-explosive compound; or
to explode any blank cartridge, pellet
or tablet containing dynamite or 9TH
er high-explosive compound, when
used in pistols, hollow canes, or any
toy for explosive purposes. Any
one violating the provisions of this
act shall, on conviction before any
alderman, magistrate, or justice of
the peace, be deemed guilty of dis
orderly conduct, and shall be fined
not more than twenty-five dollars,
and, in default of the payment OF
said fine, be imprisoned not more
than ten days.
Section 2. All acts or parts OF
acts inconsistent with this act are
hereby repealed.
