The case against Addie Burns in the criminal superior court, charged with statutory rape, was finished on Thurs- day at noon when the jury brought in a verdict of guilty and Judge Wheel- er sentenced the woman to state pris- on for not less than twelve nor more than twenty years. The jury was out but thirty minutes in reaching the verdict. The c will be appealed to the supreme court, but no bond has as yet been fixed, and Addie Burns wag taken to jail in the custody of the sheriff until Judge Wheeler d cides whether to fix bail or not. An- other feature of the case developed in the afternoon when Viney Malady, the housekeeper for Addie Burns in 1907, was brought Into court on a bench warrant for harboring and enticing the girl, May Burns, in the Burns house, and she not being able to fur- nish $1,500 bonds, also went to jail with tears streaming down her face. Both women sobbed heavily as they left the court room. The court was delayed In opening a balf-hour by the lateness of Attorney Goodhart. _ At the opening State's Attorney Hull completed his ment, finishing about 11.45 o'cloc, He claimed the alibi did not amount to nt for two weeks of her tim Judge Wheeler gave an excellent charge to the jury, taking about a half hour, and the jury wrestled with the matter but thirty minutes, reporting vt 12.50 o'clock with a verdict of guilty through Foreman King. Mrs. Burns and her sister were in tears as the verdict was given, but | the spectators were very quiet. State's | stated that since bringing this case this case up he had learned that Addie Burns had gone to Boston on one occaslon and taken two girls from their parents, who had advertised for work for the girls. She claimed she wanted them for waitresses but placed them in one of her houses. Mr. All- ing claimed that he had found out that May Burns was of good character un- til she went to the Burns house in New London. Attorney Goodhart asked for stay of sentence and a bond. Judge Wheeler stated that he would decide that in a few weeks and placed Mrs, Burns in the care of the sheriff in the mean- time. An appeal will be taken to the supreme court and possibly a motion to =et aside the verdict will be ar- gued. After court adjourned for the noon recess the Burns woman broke down and c:)ed bitterly, She hired a carriage and was taken to jail therein by Sheriff Brown and Deputy Sheriff Draper. Her sister parted with her at the door, not going inside, and it was a tearful scene.

He is charged with stealing $40 from Miss Maine in Ledyard last August. This case occupied the en- tire afternoon, Miss Maine being on the stand.

She said Chapman had worked for her about fifteen years at different times, and on the night her pocketbook was stolen had slept there. Arrest of Viney Malady.

When he made known the object of his visit the woman fainted and fell backwards. Her friends in the house gathered about her and there was much excite- | ment for a half-hour, by which time she had been quicted to a sufficient | extent and was taken into the court room, Attorney W, H. Shields was sent for and after a conference with her and after the case on trial had been finished for the day bail was fixed at $1,500 by Judge Wheeler. An effort was made to secure bail, but it could not be secured, and after a tearful interview with her attorney the woman was taken to jail by Depu- ty Draper, she left the court room in tears and cried all the way to the Jail bt Her arrest is largely due to her ony in the Burns case when she ed being in charge of the house at times when the girl, May Burns, was there. State’s Attorney Hull in the application for the bench warrant claimed that between the 19th of Jan- uary. 1907, and the first day of April of the same year that Viney Malady of Norwich with force and arms did take, receive, employ harbor and use, and did then and there cause and pro- cure to be taken, received, emnloved, harbored and used a certain female, May Burns, of the town of New Ha- ven, for the purpose of prostitution, azainst the peace and contrary to the form of the statute in such case made and provided. and that the said Viney Malady is now at large; wherefore said attorney pravs that a bench war- rant may issue against the sald Viney Malady and that she may be arrested and brought before this court to an- swer to this Information and be dealt with according to law, . —— CASTORT Bears the T X Yo i iy Bt Trumbull. s o et &, A on morning of Dl crowb:r luinend‘ with blood, which had d, On September 9 William Kiiey went to the New London police station and confessed that on September 7 he went with Bogardus to Copeland’s barn and that when Bogardus came out he was covered with blood.
