Serea C'oaata In Indictment Declared
Good Maximum Penalty la TO,
OOO Flae and Foarteem
Years In Prison.
CLEVELAND, O., March ll.-Mrs. Cas
sle L. Chadwick was tonight found guilty
of conspiracy to violate the United States
banking laws by conspiring to procure the
certification of checks on a national bank,
when there were no funds In the bank to
her credit.
She was found irullty on every count of
the Indictment upon which the Jury was
at liberty to Judge her, seven in all. The
original Indictment contained sixteen
counts. Two of these were ruled out dur
ing the trial by Judge Tayler, and of tho
remaining fourteen one-haf charged her
with securing the certification of checks
without having the proper entries mada
on the books of the bank. Judge fayler
In his charge directed the Jury to disregard
these counts and consider only the re
maining seven, which related to the certi
fication with no funds on deposit On all
of these the Jury found against her.
Penalty Provided by Law.
Under the law she can be fined on each
count, not more than $10,000 nor imprisoned
more than two years on each count. The
Jury left the court room at 3:33. It waa
announced two hours later that a verdict
had bern reached and the Jurors asked to
be taken out to dinner. Word was sent to
Judge Tayler at his hotel, and he set 8:30
as the time at which he would appear In
court to receive the verdict. The Jury
went out at 6:16 and returned at 7:30. Court
was opened promptly at 8:30 and the ver
dict read at 8:33. Mrs. Chadwick . came
into court about five minutes before the
Jury. She was accompanied by her son,
Emll Hoover, and two trained nurses. She
sank into the seat she had occupied during
the trial and rested her face In the palm
of her right hand a position she held al
most constantly throughout the sessions of
court. During the afternoon she had suf
fered severely from a cramp In her" right
arm, being at times barely able to use It.
She forgot all about the cramp tonight In
her excitement and moved the arm as
though nothing had ever troubled It.
For several minutes the courtroom
waited, not a motion be!ng made by any
body. Then Judge Tayler entered from his
chambers and walked quickly to his chair.
"I have it, your honor," said Clerk Carlo
ton, holding up a slim, white paper. Then
turning his face to the courtroom the clerk
said:
"Gentlemen, answer to your names aa
they are called."
All of the Jury responded and then Clerk
Carleton unfolded the verdict and stood
up and read:
"We find as to count 1 guilty. We find as
to count 8 guilty."
The same sentence was repeated five
more times, and then Mr. 'Carleton, resum
ing his seat, commenced' energetically to
enter the verdict on his record.
"Gentlemen," said the Judge, "was this 1
your verdict?" . 1
An articular murmur of assent arose
from the Jury and in a few words Judge
Tayler thanked and dismissed the Jury.
Defendant Collapses.
All this time Mrs. Chadwick had failed to
grasp the meaning of the verdict. She Is
slightly deaf and Clerk Carleton read the
verdict In a tone so low that It was nearly
Inaudible ten feet away. As the people
around began to ' move ahd talk v the
prisoner grasped the fact that for good or
111 her fate was decided-. She shot a quick
glance at Judge Wing, whose tall form and
handsome countenance" were" Close at her
side. The sorrowful expression of his face
told mora than the words with which he
responded to her look of appeal.
"We have lost, Mrs. Chadwick," waa all
he said.
Thla time she realised It, She turned
half round to look at Emll Hoover behind
her, and reading there a confirmation of
the words of Judge Wing, she flushed
deeply and raised her hand In a bewildered
fashion to her head. Suddenly her limbs
seemed to give way beneath jer and she
sank feebly Into her chair. Her head fell
forward on her hands and a succession of
strangling sobs came from her, while Emll
and Judge Wing sought vainly to comfort
her.
Motion for Sew Trial.
'The government moves for sentence.
your honor," said District Attorney Sulli
van.
'We desire to enter a motion for a new
trial," said Judge Wing, stepping forward.
"I will at a future time set a date for
the argument on the motion for a new
trial," said Judge Tayler, "and I presume
the matter can rest until that time."
"That la satisfactory to th government,"
said Mr. Sullivan. Judge Wing bowed a
silent assent and stepped back to the side
of his distressed client.
Mrs. Chadwick soon composed herself,
raised her hand, wiped her eyes and rose
to her feet with an air of bidding defiance.
Attended by Deputy Marshal Cloblta, Emll
Hoover and Judge Wing, she walked stead
ily to the hallway to false the elevator.
Here she collapsed again, and she was
taken, half walking and half carried. Into
the office of United States Marshal Chand
ler and placed on a sofa.
The two nurses were In prompt attend
ance and applied restoratives. In about
half an hour from the time she entered
the marshal's office Mrs. Chadwick waa
restored to comparative composure and was
then taken to the Jail. From the time of
leaving the marshal's office until the door
of the Jail closed behind her she kept up
a continuous moaning that was distressing
to hear.
Chars; of th Jailer.
It was Just 8:3J when Judge Tayler fin
ished reading his charge and Informed the
Jurors tha they were at liberty to retire.
The charge of Judge Tayler, which oc
cupied an hour In the reading, was satis
factory to both sides. He directed that
Mrs, Chadwick should be acquitted of one-
half the counts In the Indictment, which
were based on the charge that the amount
of the checks had not been regularly en
tered on the books of the bank to the
credit of the maker of th checks. There
was no evidence, the court declared, to
show that she was in position to know
anything about the books.
The finer questions of law Involved, the
definitions of "reasonable doubt" and out
sldo of thes th main declaration of the
charge were as follows:
All of tho facts proved In the rase must
not only be consistent with and rmlnt in
the guilt of the defendant, but the facts
must i inconsistsm witn tier innocence.
It matters not how clearly the clrcunrv
stances point to guilt, still If they ar rea
onably explainable on the theory which ex
cludes guilt, she should be aoqulttsd.
After defining a conspiracy the Judge
said;
If vou find from the evidence that such
an arrangement as I have defined was
made by the defendant with either of the
parties with whom she is charged with con
spiring, and that th act charged as being
dona In furtherance of such arrangement
was performed by either nna of the imrties
fo chargud with conspiring. It will be your
duly to return a veraici i'i guuiy.
Defendant Lose Hon.
Mr. Chadwick, al th conclusion of th
trial, was cool and composed. She listened
to th argument narrowly aaj to th
Judge' charge with evident anxiety. After
the Jury had filed out she said:
The chara-e of the Judae was fair, and 1
believe that If it rested with the bench that
I would be discharged. However, I do not
know what the Jury will do. I hope, of
course, hat It will be a verdict of ac
quittal, but I fear It will not be. I cannot
get Justice in Cleveland.
With the exception of the time occupied
by Judge Tayler In the reading of his
charge, the two sessions of court were con
sumed by Attorney Dwwley. fnr the de
fense, and District Attorney Sullivan in
their arguments. In making his argument
Attorney Dawley, emphasizing a point,
slapped a Juror on the knee and ones
called Juror Haymaker by name. The dis
trict attorney declared In his argument
that the defense believed It had Influenced
one Juror, without, however. Indicating him
In any way.
"It may be," he said, "that the power of
Casrte Chadwick over me has not dimi
nished. It may be that the look of her
eye and the sound of her voice can still
exert their chsrm. I wonder which one of
you It Is that has fallen under the power
of this duchess of diamonds."
Mr. Dawley looked at the Judge as If ssk
ing him to Interfere, but the Judge made
no sign.
"It's In the case," said Mr. Bull;van. who
caught the look of Mr. Dawley, "and I
have the right to discuss It In the argu
ment." After reaching her cell Mrs. Chndwlck
continued to weep and moan. After being
behind the bars for a few minutes she
fainted and a hurried call was sent for
Dr. Burke. He revived her arid when
leaving the Jail said he did not apprehend
any serious results. .
Dr. Chadwick Declines to Talk.
Dr. Chadwick declined to discuss the
verdict in any manner. He has not been
present at any time during the trial and
his first Information of the result was con
veyed In a telephone message from a news
paper man.
The conversation was as follows:
"Have you heard, doctor, that Mrs.
Chadwick has been found guilty?"
"No."
"She has. Is there anything you care
to say about the matter?"
The doctor simply hung up the telephone
receiver.

Bonding I Complet

Arrangements have been made by the
Douglas County Law Library association
to purchase the law library of ,(M vol
umes In the New York Life building for
$10,000. If the New York Life Insurance
company, which owns the collection of
books, does not back out of the agreement.
the money will be paid over early next
week and the bargain consummated. Until
the Crelghton Law school, now under ccn
structlon. Is finished, the library will be
kept where It is on the tenth floor of the
New York Life building, and he associa
tion will pay JliO a month rent for the
four rooms occupied. As soon as the law
school building Is ready the books will be
moved Into quarters to be provided on the
second floor and will remain there perma
nently. About $2,000 will be spsnt to make
the library absolutely complete, so far as
statutes, state, federal, English and Cana
dian reports are concerned, and later on
text books will be purchased, as there are
none of these now Included In the library.
The law school will pay one-fourth of the
expense Incurred In creating the library
and the library association, composed of
members of the Douglas county bar, the
remainder, shares of stock being sold at
$100 each, no attorney being allowed more
than one.
Hustle for the Cash.
The New York Life library was closed
January 1, after being continued open a
year longer than was at first deemed ad
visable. The library association was formed
and Incorporated and negotiations opened
Immediately toward the subscription of
stock and the purchase of the necessary
volumes. It was estimated that about $15,
000 would be required. The sum of $11,100
has been subscribed, but little or none of
the money had been paid until this week.
Bids had been obtained from two book
concerns and an offer of $10,000 made by the
New York Life Insurance company. This
was about Ift.OuO cheaper than the other
propositions, and though It was estimated
that It will take from $1,600 to 2,0o0 to
bring the old library up to date, the deal
was considered a good one If It could be
made. The owners declared they wanted
to close up the matter quickly .and refused
to accept part payment In cash and the
remainder within a few months. So Indif
ferent did they seem about th matter that
the Omaha lawyers deeply Interested In the
proposition were aroused and began to try
to collect the subscriptions. Friday C. J.
Smyth and 11. C. Brome spent practically
tho whole day soliciting money and by
evening- had garnered $8,3CO, which waa fur
ther augmented by $800 more Saturday
morning. With this amount In hand all
thought of abandoning the purchase of the
New York Life library were dispelled, and
announcement waa mada that the full cash
price would be tendered Monday or Tues
day, the leaders In the movement advan
cing what was needed on unpaid subscrip
tions. In addition to the amounts In hand and
subscribed the lawyers will endeavor to
have the county take $900 worth of stock,
or $100 for each Judge, and the city $300, or

COURT HEARS ARGUMENTS
New Phase of Colorado Election Con
test Is Submitted to tho
Judges.
DENVER, Colo., March 11. The state su
prme court today heard arguments on
th question of taking up the Interroga
tories submitted by th general assembly
with a view of testing (he legality of the
proposition to oust Governor Alva Adams
and seat Lieutenant Governor Jesse F. Mo
Donald as governor.
Attorney for James H. Peabody, con
t?stor for the governorship, argued that
the court could not take cognizance of th
questions, but that the legislature could
not legally seat the lieutenant governor
as governor, and If a vacancy were de-
cared former Governor Peabody would
thereby be reinstated in tho office, which
he surrendered to Alva Adams after the
legislature canvassed the returns and de
clared him elected.
The antl-Feabody republicans proposition,
that the legislature has a right to declare
a vacancy In tha office of governor and
seat the lieutenant governor, was advocated
by several attorneys.
Senator Edward T. Taylor, as amicus
curiae, contended that the court had no
right to assume Jurisdiction or answer th
interrogatories.
This afternoon Attorney John M. Vald
ron, for the Peabody republicans, and
former Governor C. A. Thomas, for the
democrats, argued against the legality of
the proposition at Issue and the powers of
the supreme court to take cognizance of It.
The court took the matter under advise
ment and a decision, is expected Monday.
