CH LOU'S” STRONG PL “Five Times Convicted of Burg- lary, He Told Judge Crane in Brooklyn that on This Occa- sion He Was Innocent. JUDGE, UNMOVED, SENT .. HIM AWAY FOR 20 YEARS. ' Statement of Dietricht, Who Has a Long Criminal Record. Made a Profound Impression on Others Who Heard It. f "* Doula Dietricht, a celebrated criminal know to the police all over the count jas “Dutch Louie,” was sentenced to ‘twenty years in Sing Sing prison by ‘Judge Crane in the County Court in {Brooklyn to-day after one of the «strongst appeals ever made to a Judge , bya confirmed criminal.

He was also convicted of the Morrell street robbery, * When arraigned for sentence to-day, Dietricht looked Judge Crane squarely fa the eyes and sald: _/.“Your Honor, I am an old thief and deserve no mercy. At the same time, an old thief has some rights and I "want to say to you before you pass “gentence on me that I am innocent of this crime. It is true that I was found "with the silk in my possession, but it _ Was handed to me less than two min- | Mites before I was arrested by a man qwho passed me, and who evidently ‘new me, although I didn't know him. He evidently knew he was pursued. ‘This seems improbable, but it istrue. I * am As innocent of the crime as you your- elf. I swear before God that I did met do it, and while a man who has Deen convicted five times can hardly expect @ jury to belleve anything he @ays, still I tell you that I am inno- ‘eent. If you take the ground that I am justly convicted, it is all up with me in this life, for I know what the vhabitual criminal law means. 1 can » ply look to you for mercy.” : Impre Min Hearers, - “Phetricht,” said Judge Crane, i "twelve men have listened to tho testl- mony and have pronounced you guilty. ‘If I was disposed to believe you I could do nothing for you, as my course jis clear under tho law. You are an Ahabitual criminal and as such I sen- ,te.ce you to twenty years at hard ‘labor in Bing Bing. You have the right to appeal.” — “and I cannot blame the jury, It looked bad being found with all that stuff but ‘before God I did not do it."
