GUILT AS
CHARGED
Verdict Returned by Jury
After Less Than Two
Hours DeIiberation

CHICAGO. Aug. IA verdict of
guilty was returned by the jury
against all the defendants in the !.
w. w. conspiracy trial at $50 D. m.

liberation The trial lasted over
three months.
Some Evidence Against Them
The government completed it's case
against the los defendants in eleven
weeks, the defense, consuming about
six weeks in combating the charges
OF sedition and sabotage against the
defendants
Witnesses who were brought to
the trial from east and west coasts
and north and south, offered both oral
and written testimony against the
meA which together with |. w. w.
literature, complaining of the war as
a Wall street scheme, and purporting
to show the organization practiced
sabotage and fought the draft, finally
convicted the men.
Some of the most important evil
dence against the l. W. w. was that
given by c. NJ. Buffum, of Spirit Lake
Idaho, who said that 80 of the men,
bers of the organization who were
helping to fight a forest fire were
withdrawn, thereby allowing the de-
struction of much spruce and fir need
ed in airplane and shipping construc-
ton.
FRANKIE Warmke, former l. w. w.
also offered valuable testimony for the
government. Warmke repeated a con.
versation he claimed to have heard in

serted that members, if drafted, would
shoot American officers and surrender
to the Germans
