Anhut Found Guilty and
Faces Prison Term.
TRIED TO BR|BE PRISON CHIEF
For Thaw'S FreedOm-Latter
Says He Gave Defend.
ant $4,000.
MAXIMUM PENALTY TEN YEARS

New York, May 17.-John N. An
hut was convicted of attempted
bribery tonight by the jury before
which he had been on trial in con-
nection with an attempt to free
Harry *. Thaw from Hatteawan by
alleged illegal means. The young
lawyer will be sentenced Tuesday
by Supreme Court Justice Seabury.
The jury, which retired shortly
before O'Clock. deliberated less
than two hours and a half. They
found that Anhut was guilty of Of
fering DR.. John w. Russell, former
head of the Matteawan Hospital,
$20, G66 for tie release OF Stanford
Whites slayer, as DR.. Russell had
testified.
Thaw had given Anhut $4,000
in stocks and cash, to be used to get
him free. Anhut's defense was that
the money was contingent fee
only, to be returned in full if Thaw
did not have his liberty by July
next, and was to be used for legal
measures to obtain his clients re-
lease through having him declared
sane by alienists who had not fig
ured in Thaw's recurrent efforts to
leave Matteawan.
Following the verdict. Anhut was
n1aA 10 he
who had expected to be acquitted,
stood gasping at the railing as the
verdict of guilty was pronounced.
Then his pedigree was given and he
was led across the Bridge of Signs
to the Tombs.
He is 20 years old and was born
in Michigan. where he was once
State Senator. He faces maxi
mum penalty of ten years in prison
and a fine of $500. In summing
up, Assistant District Attorney De-
Ford for the prosecution, rehears-
ed Thaw's unsuccessful attempts to
get his freedom and declared that
in the Anhut case Thaw in despera-
ton cought Illegal means to gain
an end he could not accomplish le-
gally.
Thaw's insanity was dwelt upon
by Arthur C. Palmer in summing
up for Anhut. He asked the jury
to disregard Thaw's testimony in
view of his mental condition. He
held that Anhut was a victim of
brought about by
Thaw and DR.. Russell and had act
ed honestly as Thaw's counsel.
In charging the jury. however,
the conrt said Thaw's testimony
should be given careful considera-
ton. Thaw said on the stand that
he sent Anhut $4,000 when the
defendant told him he had talked
with DR.. Russell and that the ply
sician had promised to see that
rhaw was released. DR.. Russell
said that Anhut tried to bride him
with $4,000 offer, but that he
replied he would not release Thaw
Tor money, for to do so would be to
sacrifice position and honor.

Pending Alien Land Bill
Negotiations.
A PLAN TO AVERT ALARMS
MikaiO's Government is Ex.
pected to Reinforce Its
Protest on Measure.
WILSON ~ USING DIPLOMACY

Washington, May 16.-President
Wilson has determined that no war
ships or troops shall be moved or
anything resembling military or
naval demonstration carried on by
the United States while diplomatic
negotiations with Japan over the
California alien land legislation are
in progress, so that no alarming in
depreciation can be placed on even
the ordinary maneuvers of the army
and navy.
Further representations from the
japanese government in support of
its protest against the California
land legislation were forecast to-
day. Viscount Chinda, after being
notified of Governor Johnson's in
tention to sign the land act, called
at the State. Department twice to
inquire when the Governor probab-
ly would act.
After the Ambassadors visit,
Acting Secretary Moore went to the
White House and passed half an
hour in discussing the situation
with President Wilson. 1t is I'M
derstood Mr.. Moore was able to
throw little light on Governor John
sons intentions when he saw the
Ambassador later.
Expectations are that Japan will
not offer anything new until the
act is signed.
President Wilson discussed with
Mr.. Moore the course to be pursued
in framing a reply to Japan's origi-
nal protest. This subject will come
before the cabinet meeting to-mor-
row with Secretary Bryan again in
his chair, but the answer may not
be immediate. unless the Japanese
government is insistent, as the
President is disposed to proceed
with deliberation as diplomatic
usage will permit.
1t developed that the Japanese
government had not suggested The
Hague tribunal as a means of set
Ting the issue, whence the conclu-
sion was drawn that Japan did not
regard the resources of diplomacy
exhausted, to a point where arbitra-
tion was the only resort or where
rupture OF diplomatic relations was
threatened.
Administration officials believe
Japan is aware of two important
facts:
|. That the United States Gov
eminent has honestly ,exeited itself
to the extent of its resources to pre-
vent the enactment of the legisla-
ton.
2. That in making treaties with
the United States a nation is en-
pected to have in mind the func-
tons of National and State govern
ments under the American dual sys-
tenn and not to expect the admins
tration to pass beyond constitution
al limitations in its dealing with
the States.

T n AVIS.
Garistiansted, St.Sroli.
Saturday, 22nd March, 1913.

The sad news of the assassination OF Sal
onica, of King George of Greece, reached
us on Wednesday afternoon, and the first
announcement was soon followed by q
especial" giving the details which we cir
cnlated in an extra to the Bulletin on
Thursday morning Flags on public and
private buildings and on the vessels in the
harbour were all hoisted at half-mast as a
mark of sympathy with our own Royal Fa-
mily in their terrible affection.
The deceased Monarch was the second
son of our late Sovereign King Christian TX
and brother to the late King Frederik VIII,
and hence was uncle to our present Sover-
eign King Christian X.
King George was born III 1916 and had
consequently reached his 68th year. He
was chosen King of Greece in 1863 in sue
cession to the first Grecian Monarch, King
Ohio, Il Bavarian Prince, who had been
chosen by the Powers as King after the
long struggle of the Greek people with Tur-
key, which lasted from 1921 to 1928, and
ended, thanks to the support of the Great
Powers, in freeing Greece entirely from
Turkish control.
The late King had some serious difficulties
to contend with, specially in connection with
the determination of the Cretans to unite
themselves with his kingdom. But in spite
of these difficulties the King succeeded in
keeping the respect of his people. Yet an
attempt was made to assassinate him in
1898, but fortunately it failed.
King George married in 1867 Princess
olga, daughter of the Russian Grand Duke
Constantine. His eldest son is Prince Con
s%tantine, Duke of Sparta, who was born i'll
1868, and has now become King of Greece.
