fancy for catching up skirt draperies
with elaborate ornaments.

strange i'm fashion this winter, which will
save us from the commonplace.
Much of the success of the present

Women are now wearing red velvet
Russian blouses edged with fur and held

BUHLER AND Goln.A CONVICTED

New Orleans, Jan. 3o.-By yote
Of II to I the jury IN the Teutonia
Bank case ct IL O'Clock Tueaday
night returned verdict Of .Kuilty
- charged against Eugene +. Buh-
Ter and Joseph H. Gomila. The nnd-
| Ing was announced to the court lese
than twenty-five minutes after ihe
jury retired to deliberate.
Almost In collapsing condition,
the two convicted bankers were es-
corted from the courtroom by depu-
ty sheriffs, who placed them under
arrest as soon ~ sthe verdict was
read. They were locked in the par
fsh prison. to remain there until
transferred to the state penitentiary,
or until appeal proceedings should
free them.
The penalty for the olfense Of
which BUTLER and Gomila were found
guilty L. Imprisonment ct hard labor
in the state penitentiary for term
not exceeding ten years, and for not
less than i've years.
The conviction Of the Teutonia
bankers came as the dramatic climax
to final session OF the trial that
lasted late into Tuesday night. Ar
guments In the case were begun on
Tuesday afternoon, and lasted until
after 1880 o'clock, st. Clair Adams
the prosecutor, making magnifi-
cent fight to convict both accused,
while attorneys Adams and Generelly
fought no less splendidly to save
their client, Butler, from an adj
verse decision by the jury. Robert
H. MARI fought az hard for his eli
emit, Gomila.
Complete abandonment Of Gomils
in the last hours Of the trial by Buh-
ler's attorneys marked that stage OF
the proceedings, for Lionel Adam:
particularly made an attack on Buh-
ler's codefendant that scored him
more severely than did even the pros
ecutor. St. Clair Adams.
The Law In the Case.
Special points in Judge Bakers
charge to the jury were:
The reception Of the deposit on |
April Is, 1912, at the Teutonia Bank
that institution being in an insol- |
vent condition, with knowledge Of |
that fact on the part of the defend
ants. are the three vital necessities
Of proof under Act No. 1O8 of 1884. |
the statute under which the prosecu-
ton is brought.
A bank ID insolvent when it can
not pay the debts that fall due in
the ordinary course Of business, cap
ital stock and surplus not considered /
as liabilities.
The law raises no presumption that
because the defendants were Officers
Of the bank they knew Of its insolv
emit condition.
All proof must be beyond 3 reason
able doubt.
All consideration Of the condition
Of the bank is confined to April Is
1912.
