George Koetter and Adolph Hochmeister, two other convicted Hamburg-American officials, re- ceived the same sentence. Joseph Poppinghause, the fourth official found guilty, was sentenced to serve one year and one day in At- lanta. The Hamburg-American Line, also named as a- defendant, was fined the nominal sum of $1. William Rand, counsel for the defendants, immediately filed an application for a writ of error, upon which the case. will be ap- pealed to the United States Court of Appeals, * The convicted officials were re- leased on bail of $10,000 each, pending a hearing of their appeal. The bail was an increase of $5000 over the bond furnished for the appearance on the conspiracy charge. The writ of error acted automatically as a stay of execu- tion. The men were convicted as a re- sult of activities in dispatching 12 ships from New York to carry supplies to German raiders at sea and filling false manifests to cov- er the shipments in violation of the U.S. eustom laws. Although convicted on two counts, sentence was imposed only on one count of the indictments. = Judge Howe in passing sen- tence upon Buenz announced that he would recommend to the Gov-, ernment officials that he be ac- corded leniency should his physi- — cal infirmities endanger his life.
