TRIAL LASTED SEVEN WEEKS Jury Vina Out Klne Ilonra Orfcnd anla Wero Confident of Arqulltnl Mueller! Thnndpratrack mt Vvrdlft Hull Inor-Bi-il. Washington, Feb. 27. "Guilty as in dicted" was the verdict announced by Carl Peterson, foreman of the Jury in the post odlce conspiracy trial shortly after eight o'clock Friday night, stat ing at the same time that this was the verdkt as to all four defendants: Au gust W. Machen, late general super intendent of the rural free delivery division; George E. Lorcnz, of Toledo, 0.; Samuel A. GrofT, Dlller B. Groff, of Washington. Miip llonra Itenrlilnnr Vrnllrt. The Jury hail been out nine hours. Justice Pritchard had gone to his home there to await any summons from the jury, and when at 7:23 o'clock the jury announced to the deputy marbhal out side the jury room that a verdict had been reached the justice was sent for. He arrived at the courthouse shortly before elsht o'clock. In the dimly lighKd room sat the four defendants, who, after the case was given to the jury, had been placed in the custody of a United States marshal and confined to the limits of the city hall. Each wore an anxious look, and a deathlike silence fell on the small crowd which had been permitted to enter the room as the clerk inquired of the foreman if a verdict had been reached. 'l.nllty aa Indl.-U-'l." The jury as to a man arose, and as the words "guilty as Indicted," fell from the foreman's lips, the defend ants and their counsel seemed ap palled. During the time the Jury was out the four defendants had paced up and down the hallway outside the court room behind, giving expression to the belief that each hour the jury spent in discussing the case brought them nearer to acquittal. There was general astonishment that the Jury had included in the conviction Samual A. GrofT, a Washington policeman and inventor of the Groff fastener, as to whom Holmes Conrad, special counsel for the government, Thursday In formed the jury he did not expect a conviction and that he personally did not believe in his guilt. Five ballots in all were taken. On the first ballot the vote stood 7 to 5 for conviction, on the second 8 to 4, on the third 9 to 3, on the fourth 10 to 2, and on the fifth the vote was unan imous. Hall Increased to H'JO.iXUl. Immediately after the verdict waa rendered Charles A. Douglass, In be half of all four defendants, filed mo tions for a new trial, for an arrest of judgment and for an appeal for the purpose of having the defendants ad mitted to bail. Bail was then fixed at $20,000 each, the bond of Lorenz and the two Groffs being increased from $10,000. When Mr. Maddox, on behalf of the Groffs, Inquired as to the amount of bail to be required of them, Justice Pritchard said: "I know no difference between these defend ants. The jury has said they are guilty and I can not discriminate, but will treat all alike." Tlinnderatrnfk nt Verdict. Samuel A. Groff said: "I was just as certain of acquittal as anything in the world." Next to Samuel A. Groff, the most surprised man was Machen, who said he was thunderstruck at the verdict. The four defendants will appear be fore Justice Pritchard this morning to receive sentence. The district attorney and the offi cials of his ofllce as well as Post Office Inspector Mayer, all of whom were in court when the verdict was brought in, expressed gratification at the result of the trial, which, lacking two days, lasted seven weeks.
