Belcher, who while mayor of this city, abscond ed a year ago, and, who surrendered himself on Monday last, was sen tenced Friday to 12 years' imprison ment in the state prison at Trenton on a charge of embezzlement. Belcher disappeared from this city about a year ago while he was mayor. He was alleged to have embezzled from $100. 000 to $160,000 from personal friends and from the Manchester Building and Loan association, which was forced to suspend business. No trace of the missing man was . discovered by the authorities until he appeared, at the county jail Monday night and volun tarily surrendered. He had only $17 in his possession, and declared that he had suffered great hardships during his absence. He said that he had traveled about the country until his funds were exhausted. He found him self penniless 'in St. Paul after losing the last remaining $200, and then se cured work digging ditches for $1.25 a day. His health broke down'and he was compelled to seek other employ ment and resume his wanderings. He finally found himself In New York, ill and without funds. After giving him self up he expressed regret and said he was prepared to suffer the conse quences of his embezzlement.
