tha criminal court thla morning, dipped
oft one year of tha maximum penalty
and sentenced William Conatantlne to
ona year in tha state penitentiary and
to pay a Una of $6,000. The'flne Is tha
highest permissible, and at tha rata of
aerrlna sot at 1 1.000 a rear would ordi
narily mean fire years' additional lm-
Diisonment If not paid. .

snot stood against tha wall. When tha
sentence was pronounced . he , freely
sooka hla disappointment.
"It should have been tha limit, under
such a verdict," he' aald. ( it miglrt
hare been worse, though. Ra would
shoot ma again If ha thought ha could
ret out Of It."
"Conatantlne, yon hare by your crime
and conviction, presented to ma the
hardest and most dlmoult problem that
haa arer coma before me," aald Judge
Morris. "Ton hare resided In this com'
wunlty IT or It years, maintained your.
self as a good el Uses and attained a
position of honor; yet. In ona moment of
passion and anger, you nare rorreiieo
these rewards of thrift and Industry.
It la almost impossible - to tinder-
stand tha rerdlct of tha Jury. If you
ware. Insane, tha Jury should bars ao
aultted you, and If you wara sane when
tha tragedy occurred you should bare
been oonrloted aa charged of aaaaulf

"It is impossible ror ma to under-
stand by what process of .reasoning tha
