The moment that the verdict was pronounced news of it was flashed by the State Department to the American embassies, legations, and consulates in Europe and Cen- tral and South America. This was done so that members of the con- sular and diplomatic corps might takon such precautions as seem to them advisable in view of the hos- tile demonstrations excited by the case in many parts of the world against American representatives.

Judge's Ordeal.

The judge remained impassive during the speeches of the prison- ers. When they had finished he pronounced sentence, declaring: "Under the law of Massachusetts the jury says whether a defendant is guilty or innocent. The court has absolutely nothing to do with the question. The laws of Massa- chusetts provide that a judge can- not deal any way with facts.

MILLIONAIRE'S SON ARRESTED.

FLORIDA LAND DEALS SEQUEL.

New York, April 13.

Mr. Paris E. Singer, the million- aire son of the founder of the sew- ing machine fortune, was arrested yesterday at Everglades Club, which he founded ten years ago at Palm Beach, Florida, on a charge of obtaining £300,000 under false pretences. The charge was pre- ferred because of rumours that he had incorporated his assets in Eng- land and therefore they were not liable for judgment in the United States. ME, "Singer has been con- nected with many huge land pro- jects in Florida. "One of the most ambitious was the Blue Heron on which construction was started in 1925 with plans calling for an expenditure of £400,000.

Work on this stopped when the general collapse of land prices in Florida occurred.

The claims against Mr. Singer are by contractors, excavators, builders, and architects. He was released on £4,000 bail.
