meaner nt IIM." o'clock to-night after
being out since 7:30.
Justice ("lurk sentenced Slegcl to pay
t tine of 1 1. no iinit to servo ten months
n tlir Monroe county penitentiary tit

the prison term Is concerned Is to be.
stayed ii'itll the second Monday In .Tune,
when Slcgcl Is to nie.ir here before
Judge ("ark. If nn effort has boon tnmlo
by tli.it time to p.iy Kick the depositors.
In the Slegel Kink the court will con
s.der that f.iet; If not he Is to serve the
prison term.
Slegel wiim paroled In the custody of
Ms counsel, .lohn It. Stanehtleld, until
his ball bond of $25,000, continued by
the court. Is renewed In live day.
Slegel had nothing to say about the
verdict. '
Judge Clark, when Slegel, standing
beside Mr. Stunchlleld declared ho h.ul
nothing to say, remarked thnt he had
heard that Slegel Intended to pny liaek
the money he had lost to the depositors'.
"Is that correct?" he naked. Slegel
as so nervous that he had to ask his
lawyers before replying, "I make that
promise."
The court added that the verdict was
In full accord with the evidence. Judge
Clark said he had even thought that
conviction on n higher offence ns
charged in the. Indictment was war
nanted. Jur Merciful, nj- .Initio.
"The Jury," he said, "hns been merci
ful to you. and it Is the Intention of this
ourt to Rive you an opportunity to re
deem the promise you made."
.Mr. Train wns disappointed and sur
prised sreatly at the verdict, but rather
expected It after the first word had he?n
heard from the Jury, llo sent a wire to
Oovernor-elect Whitman soon after
leavinR court.
Mr .Stanchtlpld said: "There will be
no appeal. I regnrd it n n great vic
tory for the defence. 1 was ready to
ple.id to a liil'dviiieanor nt any time."
Mr Train said after the sentence: "1
retard Slegel's conviction of any degree
of crime as a victory for New York Jus
tice. HIa offence wns highly technical
and the case unique. At any rate It
ha? been demonstrated that simply be
cause a man Is the head of a vast busi
ness organization he cannot vlolato the
criminal law and hide behind the com
plexities and intricacies of his dealings.
Any conviction of n criminal offence
arising out of business dealings Is
bound to put the fear of tho law into
' le ho.uts of business men who may be
enipted to do wrong. The suspension
of the prison sentence pending restitu
tion will, I hope, result."
The jurors reached their decision on
the third ballot. The grand larceny
charge was disposed of In a little more
fian an hour after they assembled to
deliberate. It was the question of In
t'nt that swayed them to favor a mis
demeanor verdict. Tills point had re
ceive d especial emphasis by the court
in his charge.
Two hours after the Jurors entered
thi Jury room In the Livingston county
Court Mouse with the exhibits in the
a request was sent to Justice Clark

DOCTOR MAKES DKXIAIi
AXD TltBKATKXS SI" IT
Sworn testimony concerning n gift of
Jinn to Coroner's Plislclan Albert T.
Weston In connection with tho death of a
Christian Scientist was read to Dr.
Weston yesterday by Commissioner of
Accounts Leorard M. Wallsteln.
The sons of Charles lye Howler of 1
West Sixty-eighth street, who died Feb
ruaiy 9, mm, say they put $100 In an en
velope and that then one of thtm took the
money to Dr. Weston nt his romo, lot
West Klghty-slxth street. This wns done.
they swear, after the utidel taker had i
p'.nincd to them that It was protmbla
the Coroner w.'iili order an autopsy In
such a dentil and that It was usual for
the family, therefore, lo make a present
to the Co i oner's piiyMelan.
Dr. Weston denied ever' circumstance
of the Howler brothers' testimony so far
as It Implicated him. After the hear
ing he said be would put the matter In
tho hajids of his lawer, Henry W.
Cngor, and see If he cannot reoovcr
damages for defamation of character.
Dr. Weston was on the star.d all day
and dlscus.ied tie acts of a twenty-lite
year term as a Coroner's physician. It
was brought out that he had In several
cases O, K'd. the death certificates of
Christian Scientists. This prevented the
cases going to a Coioner. Tho death
certltlcates wele taken to him by an
undertaker.
Asked if he didn't think this wrong, be
said he didn't. "Jt's ttie merest techni
cality whether the ease Is u. K'd. by mo
or goes through the regular channel,"
was Dr. Weston's lwsltloii.
A certain undei taker, who went un
named, has often been recommended by
Dr. Weston, the doctor himself admitted,
but "only In resisjiuo to a request of
the family.' Dr. Wenton said he never
hml been p.ild by this undertaker. Asked
broadly If money h.ul ever passed be
tween linn and the undtrtakeis be
laughed and said:
"I may haw borrowed money from
undertakers."
Tells of I'ntrlek Cusp.
He win In excellent humor all the time
he was testifying, except when confionted
with the testimony of Mr. Bowler's sons
and when he wan asked about nis work
In tho case of Albeit T. Patrick. Then
he said : '
"I was paid ly ihe Slate. 1 was em
ployed by the District Attorne), because
he employed almost eerjbody who was
an expel t. .My opinion l. now that ltio
dled naturally. 1 regret that as an ex
pert for the Stale 1 taid chloroform was
the cause of death.
"That Is one blot on my record. 1
deeply iegrt my connection with that
case and I am frank lo say so."
llo also testified in the case of Nan
Patterson, but voluntarily, he said. The
Coroner's olllce reprimanded him for it.
Commissioner Wallsteln's qutlons
about the Howler death weie preceded by
one or two legarding tho Inyout of
Dr. Wi-ston's home Tin se the doctor ie
fused to answer. To the preliminary
ipieMions alsiiit Mr. Howler and the c
cumst.inces under which he came into the
case Dr. Weston answered that h- didn't
have the bast recollection.
The undertaker was one Dr. Weston
has known, he said, for fifteen years.
He didn't remember talking with him be
fore he went to Mr. Howler's home.
Testimony pievlousiy given to Commls.
sloner Wallsteln was that ltobert Bowler,
a sou of the dead man, had talked with
the undertaker, who spoke of the curtom
of giving presents to tho Coroner's physi
cian. Dr. Weston said he never had received
such a present.
"ltobert Howler says Ihe Coroner's
physician said when he camp into tho
room 'How do 1 know that he didn't
kill himself." and that h answered ; 'Any
man with sense could see lie died a nat
ural death,'" read Commissioner Wall
steln. InUeN Complete Dentnl.
"I deny that any such conversation
took place," said Dr Witon.
"ltobert Howler's brother, Charles l.ee
Howler, Jr., has testltled to me that he
drew a check for J300 on the Washington
Trust Company, payable to bearer, took It
to the Hank of the Metropolis, had It
cashed, went and got a while envelope
ami put M00 111 it and sealed the envelope
and gave it to his biother, Itnbrrt," Cnm
liiUsloner Wallsteln continued, "The en
velope was unaddressed and uiitnai ked,
he says.
"Hubert Howler's testimony cnirnbo.
rates thlH nnd says that he look the en
velope tn Dr. Weston's houi,e. 'uildwav
belwern Broadway and Amsterdam ave.
mi", en the south side of lllghty-slxth
stieet.' It Is an npuitnient house and
Dr, Weston's nninn appeared In the wlrt
dow. He had to wait about five minutes
In the parlor, and then, he sayj, Dr.
Wistoii opened the door of his nf)lr nnd
nslted him to step In. lie did so and
handed over thn envelope, saying; 'Dr.
Weston, lny brother sent you this present.'
lie swenrs that Dr. Weston took the en
velope and put It In a drawer of his dek
without saying a word, een of thanks."
The Cormier's physician entered a com
plete denial, Tn a question he replied
that his home was correctly described,
Supreme Court Justice New burger de
elded esterday that Coroner Hi niiiiu !e
lenstein must iiiiswpi' Commissioner Wall
steln's questions, Juxtle Newburger grants
lb" motion to put llellensteln In contempt,
but says that ns his refm.nl was not
contumacious he mav purge himself by
answering tli questions on a day tn be

earlier case t bus alleady been decided
that city oIllelalK must testify before the
Commissioners of Accounts, who bav.

their ofllees. Justice Newburger finds Mm
questions put by Commissioner Wallsteln
pertinent and says that his being an
