Mrs. Cassic L. Chadwick was o:

United States by conspiring to pro

She was found guilty on ever:

The Jury reached a verdict in tw<
hours.
Mrs. Chadwick came into cour

Hoover, and two trained nurses. Sh,
sank into the seat she has occupie<

sition she held almost constantl:
throughout the sessions of the court
During the afternoon she had suffer

in her excitement, and move<
the arm as though nothing had eve:

good or ill her fate was decided. Sh<
shot a quick glance at Judge Wing
whose tall form and handsome coun.

sorrowful expression of his face told
more than the words with which he
responded to her look of appeal.
"We have lost, Mrs. Chadwick,'
was all he said.
This time she realized it. She

bewildered fashion to her head. Sud

Emil and Judge Wing sought vainly

Wing, stepping forward.
"I will at a future time set a date
for the argument on a motion fora

"That is satisfactory to the gov
