TRIPLETT GIVEN " LONG PRISON TERM
Sentenced for Ten Years for Con-
 SpiraCy Against Relative

New Haven, June 27.-Four to ten years in states prison was the sen- tence meted out in the superior court yesterday afternoon by Judge Edwin B. Gager in the case of Granville Hampden Triplett, the New York law yer, found guilty recently on two counts of conspiracy against his sis ter-in-law, Dorothy Triplett of New York. The prisoner was given from four to five years on the second count and five years indeterminate sentence on the third. The first count had been dismissed.
 Immediately on the passing of the sentence the attorneys for the prison CT announced their intention of talk ing an appeal to the upreme court. and it was asked that bail be grant, ed pending the outcome of the appeal States Attorney filling objected to the balllng of the prisoner On the ground that the offense was too seri- by Judge Gager.
 Bonds of $5,000 was furnished by the surety company of New York WHICH 1ufnlSned the previous bail and Trtplett was released. Tn mak- ing the decision to let the prisoner out On bail Judge Gager said that he did not minimize the seriousness of the alleged crime, but that it was his opinion that the prisoner could be re- leased without danger to society.
 The Triplett case when it was tried in the April session of the court under Judge Gager was one of the most sensational that has ever been held in this city. It was alleged at that time that Mrs Triplett, the sister 1n-laW of the prisoner, was induced to come to this city on a pretense of by man named Wilson, and that she was taken to a room in the Hotel Garde in a conspiracy to secure evil dence for Mrs. Tripletts husband in a divorce action.
 During the trial two of the prin- c1pal witnesses for the defense were arrested on charge of perjury causing big sensation. When the prisoner was found guilty by the jury a motion was offered by counsel for the defense to have the verdict set aside as contrary to the evidence 1He motion was overruled by Judge Gaser in imp posing the sentence yes- terday afternoon. Appeal was at once tdhen to the supreme court. and the cf'se Will probably come up in the HeA' session of the body.

The crisis of the war is now.
"Since enemy submarines have
transferred their activities from the

strategy and new tactics to deal with

suppressing the menace.
THE Germans now are going to
