SCHNEIDER IS
FOUND GUILTY
Youth, Who Accused Pal OF
Hall Murder, Convicted
of Perjury
MAY SEND HIM
TO REFORMATORY

NbW BRUNSWICK. N. j., Dec. o
Raymond Schneider was found guilty
Yesterday of having committed per.
Jury in charging his friend, Clifford
Hayes with the murder OF the Rev
edward W. Hail and Mrs Eleanor
Mills Thus was ended what the
attorney for Schneider termed one
or the "side shows" of the murder
case. Schneider will come up for
sentence later. and while he could
receive up TO seven years in State
prison, Judge Peter F. Daley will
more probably send him to the re-
formatory
Almost 500 persons were in the
court room during the day. Schneider
was virtually the only witness in his
own defense. for though Walter c.
Steadman. Schneider's counsel call
ed Hayes he was questioned only
briefly. On the stand Schneider
made lamentable showing. contra
dieting himself, shifting about and
occasionally lying obviously.
schneider swore that he had made
the false statement because the de-
tectives Pestered him 10 tell the
truth. He asserted they kept at him,
but admitted they all told linn to tell
the truth. He said he had been losing
sleep for some nights and was in
much pain because of an infected
finger.
He tried 10 make It appear that
he had not accused Hayes until
Hayes had said he. Schneider. was
on the Phillips farm on the night of
the murder, but even on his own ad
mission he made his accusation FIRST
after he had been in the prosecutors
office sless than two hours and sew
eral hours before Hayes was brought
In to confront him. Mumbllng his
words and shifting his eyes. Schnei-
der in answer to questions. admit
ted that he had lied when he ac-
cused Hayes and also in an earlier
statement, when he said he had
gone home before IL o'clock on the
night of the murder.
Judge DAILY addressed the Jury
briefly. The jury was out only 20
minutes.
When the verdict was announced
Schneider took it stolidly. His faith
er broke down and then his mother
gave way. Pearl Bahmer, who had
been the young mans sweetheart,
after being in the court all day. was
taken back to jail before the verdict
was announced.
Schneider will be tried on the car
nal abuse charge next week. He will
probably not be sentenced for per-
jury until after the second trial.
Mrs. Jane Gibson. star witness
in the Hall Mills case, asserted yes
terday that her story had not been
3 -scredi.ed and that furthermore
she had been Instructed 20 ao.5
herself in readiness to appear again
as a witness. She asserts that what
she had to say about the woman II.
grey present at the murder scene
was accepted. but that her inability
positively to identify the man who
did the killing and was the compan-
Ion of the woman led the Grand
Jury OF Somerset county. to refrain
from finding an indictment Her

them, in one instance four times as
much. I protested to the Bronx Tax
Deputy and was told that II were

a protest, and that the next year !
would be assessed higher yet.
Real estate. like any other commod-

tion for proflteering at the expense of
the taxpayer In any case. and especially
where the lots cannot be utilized in any
remunerative way where the streets are
not filed in or sewers or water mains
installed.
Incidentally may protest against the
