YEARS SENTENCE
 AND $500 FINE EACH
OPPOSED GOTHAM POLICE IN SPECTORS FEEL FIFE WEIGHT
 OF THE LAW.
None of Them Have Yet "SqueaIaa'' No Notice Of An
 Appeal. =.

New York, May 9.-Dennis Sweeney John Murtha, James E. Hussey and James F. Thompson, former police in spectors convicted of consDiring to obstruct justice to check graft revela- tions involving them, were sentenced today to serve one year ill the pen- tentiary and pay fine of $500 each.
 This is the maximum sentence.
 Up to the moment that sentence was pronounced the belief prevailed that one of the four would "squeal'' to the district attorney on the man higher up." If any of them enter tained such intention he masked it under stolid front of calmness as he faced the bar. Reports that one of the four was bargaining with Mir. Whitman for suspension of sentence and that the long-sought guiding gen. jus of the system would be brought to justice through confession were still prevailant about the criminal courts building after sentence had been pronounced. It is not vet too late for one of the inspectors to save himself by an eleyenth-hour state ment.
 No move of any sort looking to an appeal was taken by any of the four prisoners today.
 The crime for which the four in spectors-highest uniformed officials in the department-were convicted was brought to light by the district attorney in his crusade against graft ill the police department, begun after the murder of Herman Rosenthal George A. Sipp, a resort keeper, told Mr. Whlteman that he paid resular protection money to collectors acting for Sweeney. When it came time for 6ipp to testify before the Grand Jury he fled. He was found at Atlantic City, brought back to New York and testified that Sweeney and his three confederates had raised a fund and hired him to remain out of the State
