FOUND GUILTY
SIOUN FALLS MAN CONVICTED
OF DISLOYAITY.

Sioux Falls, April 12.-After less
than a hours elaboration, the jury
brought In a verdict Of guilty on all
four counts in the case of Conrad
Kornemann, editor of the 'Deutscher
Herold," a weekly German language
newspaper of Sioux Falls. The de-
.endant and his son, counsel for the
prosecution and defense, court Off
GERS and a few spectators were pres
ent when the foreman of the jury de-
livered the verdict to the court.
Kornemann seemed little perturb-
ed when the verdict was read. His
attitude was no different than il he
had actually guessed ahead what the
jury's decision would be. He main
tanned the same composure that had
been his throughout the trial, except
yesterday afternoon, when, during
the plea of his attorney to the jury.
in which reference was made TO
Kornemann's family. the defendant
wept almost audibly.
That a new trial will be asked was
the statement of Joe Kirby, counsel
of Kornemann. The petition will be
based on the defendants objection
to the admissibility of evidence at
the trial, which objections were for
the most part overruled by the court.
