ciaI investigating committee pro-

mony OF Patrolman John Stroh. for
mer sergeant and chauffeur for Chief
Herman F. Rikhoff.
It was charged that about SIPS
changed hands. The place Of Thomas
Dillon. Twelfth ward Republican
leader was named.

report as bearing further investiga-
ton. It is charged that Cline was in

Thirteen minutes later, at exactly

lift. appeared in the corridor leading
TO the courtroom from the jury room
and word went flashing down the line
that the jury was ready to report.
There was no doubt in the minds of
any one in the courtroom, except Gov.
ernor McCray himself. that the yer
dict was guilty. The Governor, with
the supreme optimism and confidence
which has characterized him through
out his difficulties, political, financial
and personal, was hopeful OF an
acquittal until the verdict was read.
Thomas Hamilton. chief engineer of
the Gary Street Railway, foreman of
the jury. handed the verdict to Will
liam p. Kappes. Kappes read the
words which sealed the doom of the
Governor.
With unexpected suddenness Judge
Anderson launched into a denuncia-
tion of the Governors acts. which
ended when he ordered Meredith to
take the Governor to Jail and confine
him there until Wednesday at 10 a. m.
when he is to be brought before Judge
Anderson for sentence.
