indicate that the vote on the prohibitory
amendment is about 8 to 1 against it.
Only ten towns so far reported give it a
majority. The new secret ballot law
received its first trial. There was no
excitement at the polls, and in a general
way the new plan worked exceedingly
well. Hartford county complete gave
4,509 for the amendment and 10,031
against it,

hundred and three townships and the
cities Waterbury and New Haven give a

BOYLE FOUND GUILTY.
Sentenced to He Hanged Nov, 29—The
Case Appealed.
RarLeigue, N, C., Oct, 7.—The jury in
the Bovle case retired at 8:50 Saturday
night and three hours later returned a
verdict in the presence of a crowded
court room. Their verdict was that
Boyle was guilty of rape. The atten
tion of the great crowd in the court
room was breathless when the verdict
was announced. The counsel for Boyle
made an earnest appeal for a new trial,
which Judge Armfield promptly re
fused. He also overruled a motion in
arrest of judgment,
When Boyle was asked if he had any-
thing to say in his own behalf, he made
a remarkably dramatic speech in which
he charged that thers was prejudice
against him. He denounced two of the
opposing counsel in the most bitter
language. His manner was so spirited
at times that he was once applauded.
Fle concluded by saying that he was
ready to receive the sentence.
Judge Armfield then sentenced him
to be hanged on Nov. 20. Boyle's coun-
sel made an appeal to carry the case Ww
the supreme court of the state and this
appeal was granted,
