CLEVELAND, Ohio. September 13.-
Eugene v. Dsbs, charged with vio-
lating the espionage act. was found
guilty by a federal jury last evening.
OF the original ten counts OF the
Indictment but four remained when
the jury retired to consider the evil
dence. The verdict found him guilty
Of three: not guilty of one. He was
found guilty OF attempting to incite
INSTRUMENTATION, disloyalty, etc. in
the military and naval forces: at
tempting to obstruct recruiting and
uttering language tending to incite,
provoke and encourage resistance to
the United States and to promote the
cause of the enemy.
The count on which he was ad-
judged innocent charged that he OPP
posed the cause of the United States.
Praise Fairness Of Judge.
Counsel for both sides said that
they considered Judge Weston
haver's instructions fair. They were
exhaustive and couched in simple
language and delivered in kindly
half. He made no comment on the
evidence which, presented by the
government, was affirmed by the de-
PENDANT, but assured the jury that the
espionage act was wholly valid.
The jury was out five and q half
hours, mostly spent in assimilattng
the fne distinction between the four
was dark and gloomy, but the spec
tators remained throughout.
