Denver. June 1.—Visions of peni tentiary walls and long sentences loom through the bars of the county Jail tonight for 19 members of Den ver's so-called "million dollar bunco ring" who were sentenced this after noon by District Judge George F. Dunklee in West Side court, after he had denied them a new trial. Eleven of the alleged "bunco men," including Lou Blonger, said to he the "brains" of tlje hand, were sentenced to serve seven to 10 years each on two counts charging conspiracy, an-’ ^^fteven to. 10 years each on a third conspiracy count, the sentences to run concurrently. The remaining eight were sentenced to three to 10 years on two counts and another three to 10 yeara on the third count. Their sentences also will run concurrently. Those who were sentenced to from seven to 10 years were Blonger; A, W. Duff, who was known as the "first lieutenant” of the confidence ring; Jack French, who has wealthy rela tives in Cleveland; A. B. Cooper, Lit tle Rock, Ark.; George (Tip) Belcher: Thomas Beech; Steve J. Olesen; A. H. Potts; Robert C. Davis; Walter By land and Louis Mushnlck. Three lo 10 Years. The three to 10-year terms were imposed upon Jack Hardaway, John Allison and William Dougherty, for whom the jury in the case recom mended special clemency, and on J. H. Foster, William Straub, George Walker, G. H. Williams and G. C. Bailey. In overruling the defendants' mo tion for a new trial. Judge Dunklee defended the prerogative in the court in allowing the Jurors their freedom while the case was in progress, which was objected to by the defense after the verdict had been returned and cited as an error of the court in the motion for a new trial. . Each of the convicted men learned 4 *f,Js fate with the same sangfroid that characterized his allied defendants as a member of the bunko ring. The silence of the courtroom was broken only hy the voice of Judse Dunklee as he sentenced them one by one. Wives, sweethearts and other rel atives, inconspicously scattered among the spectators, wept in silence. One woman, whose identity was not revealed, clenched her hands and braced herself in her seat as the court pronounced sentence upon the first man—Allison. She wore a wedding ring. After court recessed she drove away in a big touring car. The only attempt at a demonstra tion was when Judge Dunklee fin ished reading his decision overruling the motion for a new trial. Some one started to applaud but was cut short by cries of “sh," and to the sharp rap of the bailiff's gavel. Judge Dunklee allowed the con vicftd men SO days in which to pre pare their appeals to the supreme court. They are to be held In the county Jail pending final disposal of the case. One Declared Insane. Drove Sullivan, convicted with the others last March, was not sentenced. Dr. D. E. Phillips, appointed by the court to investigate Sullvan'a mental condition, yesterday reported to the court that Sullivan was insane. It is probable Sullivan will be given a jury trial to determine whether or not he will go to an insane asylum. The 20 defendants were convicted on three counts, charging consphMrcy. con splracy to commit confide..ce gaming, and conspiracy to commit grand lar ceny. Under the law, Judge Punklee could have imposed sentneces ranging from one to 10 years in the peniten cs»,lary ■* Widespread Attention. The prosecution of the bunco men attracted widespread attention throughout the country. The case beg3n last aummer when Phillip Van else, district attorney, aided by Colo rado state rangers and scores of Den ver» citizens, sworn in as deputies, swept down on the haunts of the con fld-nce men and rounded up the ah leged member* of the band in raids that lasted all one night and part of the next day. The 20 defendants were found guilty on March 28, last, after the Jury had been out more than 100 hours, having taken 150 ballots. The trial, lasting two months, was railed the "most important In the legal hi* troy of Colorado.” Victims of the band came to Den ver from different parts of the coun try and testified to having lost frrtni $5,000 to $64,787 each. One of the witnesses came here from England to tell of how he contributed $25,000 to the confidence men. Many other victims did not come here for the trial. Den Besmey, formerly a member of the confidence men’s organization turned state's evlder, * Much credit for trailing and trapping the con fldence men was given bv District Attorney VanCIse to J.

In the words of attorneys. Attorney Connell "did not gain an inch.” George DeDuey cross-examined the other wit nesses. Most of the afternoon was spent in reading paragraphs from let fora sent by Miss Johnstone to Dr. Connell. Only once during the crosa-examina tlon, which showed that Miss John stone was undergoing a severe nervous strain, did she break down and cry. This was when mention was made of the engagement ring given by Dr. Connell to Miss Johnstone. lung Breaks Doctor. “While In Kngland," said the wo man between sobs, “Dr. Connell wrote me that he had purchased my engage ment ring. He said It almost 'broke' him to buy It. “I wrote him I was crazy to see it and I urged him to send ft to me. He wrote me that he wanted to wait until he returned home, as"he wanted to give it to me himself. He wanted to put the ring on my finger. "When he did come home he kissed my finger before he put the ring on and then kissed nie. As he was put ting it on he told me that it was my engagement ring.

Mickey, Jjgti NameAm 2 Payrolls University Professor Draws Two Salaries From State Besides Small Jobs at Nebraska Towns. Pay Warrant Is Held Up Rpeclal Dispatch to The Omaha Bee. Lincoln. June 1.—C. D. Robinson, state treasurer, ordered Lincoln banks today to refuse to cash the salary warrant for May issued to Prof. Clark E. Mickey of the engi neering college of the state univer sity, in payment for services with the state department of public works. Robinson asserted today that Mickey, under the code law, had no right to draw dual salaries, one for $2,500 a year for testing stone and paving materials for the department of public works and the other for $4,000 a year for teaching engineer ing in the state university. Salary Increased. Mickey records show that he drew a salary of $2,000 a year for teach ing at the university until September 1 of this year when his salary was increased to $1,000 a year. Other records indicate that Mickey has been drawing $2,500 a year from the de partment of public works for two years for testing stone in the state house walls and testing of materials used in state paving. The original appointment to the state department of public works position was made by George E. Johnson, state engineer. Immediately after the appointment of Roy Coch ran as state engineer was made by Governor Bryan, Cochran reappointed Mickey to the same position at the same salary. Wait on < nehran. "I think it only fair to wait until Mr. Cochran returns to Lincoln to give him an opportunity to make an explanation as to why he reappointed me," Professor Mickey said. "How ever. I will say right now that the state needs some one to inspect ma terials put into the public works done by the state, and I have been doing the work cheaper than anyone else would." Mickey stated, that In addition to the job of inspecting state materials and teaching engineering in the uni versity. he often Inspected paving and materials for various towns in the state for certain prices. "None of this work interferes with my duties at the university," Mickey said. Attorney General O. S. Spillman stated today that he would withhold an opinion on the legality of the dual salary until asked officially to gift one by Robinson or some state of ficial.

Russian-British Crisis Not Over New Memorandum to Soviet Reiterate* Demand* and Makes New Ones. By AmocIrM rre«. Moscow. June 1.—The contents of the latest memorandum of Lord Cur zon, the British foreign secretary, dealing with the dispute between Great Britain and Russia, strengthen the belief that the crisis arising from Great Britain's demands on Russia has not passed. The memorandum reiterates the old demands and makes new ones, but It is somewhat emphatically Insistent on the withdrawal of Russia's repre sentatives In Tersia and Afghanistan, who are alleged to have been carrying on anti-British propaganda. The opinion Is general that It de mands even more than the original ultimatum. The only British concession Is that Instead of calling for an apology and the withdrawal of Russia's representa tives from Afghanistan. It says their transference to other posts within a reasonable time would he considered satisfactory. The memorandum la worded more amicably than the ulti matum. It agrees to a conference over the limit of territorial waters If the other powers also agree, but In the meantime, without a formal con vention, it wants Russia to admit British fishing rights up to three miles from the coast.

A flaming electric eword and crescent design decorating the front of the giant engines, two special trains with sirens shrilling pulled in to Union station yesterday afternoon, bringing 310 nobles of the Mystic Shrine from California and Hawaii, en route to the imperial ouncil in Washington next week. Aboard the second train was Im perial Potentate James L. MeCandless of Honolulu. Many of the local noble* made their beaming obisance before him. With him wai his wife.

Y. GOVERNOR SIGNS DRY LAW REPEAL v • ^ • . W ets Win Victory W ith Approval of Cuvillier Bill by Chief Executive Action Taken at Dictates of Conscience, Advice of High Legal Authority and Implied Wish of People in La«t Election, Governor Alfred Smith Says—At tacks Volstead Act. Puts Enforcement of Laws Up to Federal Officials Albany, N. Y., June 1.—With the stroke of a pen, under the eyes of a deeply interested nation, Gov. Alfred E. Smith committed his public career to the judgment of the future when, late today, he signed the Cuvillier bill repealing the Mullen-Gage state prohibition enforcement ciCt. Bombarded for weeks by “wet” and “dry” propaganda, threat and promise, the governor, seeming to enjoy the situation of keeping the doubt alive, gave no positive indica tion of what action he would take. At Coney Island several weens ago he dampened the hope* of the wet* by announcing he would ‘‘uphold the constitution.” To the palpitating drya he pointed out time and again the overwhelming approval of the people at the last state election for a return of light wines and beer. Follows Conscience. In announcing that he had signed the bill, the governor declared that he followed the dictates of his conscience, the advice of high legal authorities and the implied wish of the people in the last state election. "Because of the far-reaching inter est in this bill displayed by all claes-s of our people," said the governor's statement. “I have given nearly one month of solid and careful thought to its final disposition. "It is fur'here.-t from my thoughts to question the motives of the men and women of integrity throughout the state, who, with an eye to the right of justice, have arrayed them selves on the different sides of the question presented." Only Course Cpen. Reviewing, then, the history of prohibition so far as New York is con cerned the governor pointed out that the people of New York gave an over whelming majority to the democratic p’atform which provided for a refer endum on the use of wine and bier. He then declared fco had acted as the governor of the state only, un der the law, could act. "I have read thousands of letter* and I have listened to the fullest dis cussion," he said, "and no one has pointed out to me any provision of the statutes or any decision of the United States supreme court which imposes upon our state any convic tions! duty to maintain a state en forcement act. and I am satisfied that, as a matter of law, this contentioa does not admit of doubt. Healing With Three Classes. "I am dealing with three classes of people, the radical drys, the radical wets, and those who hold moderate views on the subject. "The drys seem to see a moral duty on the part of the state to maintain an enforcement act. They are un doubtedly led to this by their own frame of mind, because they do not suggest that the state maintain an act merely enforcing the Eighteenth amendment in accordance with the wishes of the majority of the people of the state, but they Insist that there be a state enforcement act ex actly paralleling the Volste.xd act.” Quoting from a decision of the United States supreme coult, which said: "The power confined to congress by the Eighteenth amendment is In no wise dependent upon or affected by action or inaction on the part of the I Turn to 1‘xse Two. f otnmn Six.)
