JGOO Tuesday by Federal Judge K.
S. Bean following his conviction
Monday by a jury on a charge of
violating the prohibition law.
In addition the court ordered his
automobile, which was used to

sentenced to one year on the first
count of the Indictment, which
charges the maintaining of a nuls
nnce and six months on the sec

ufacture of liquor. On the third
count of transporting liquor the
jury found him not guilty. Follow
ing convlc'ion Basich entered a
plea of guilty to a Becond indict
ment which charged him with
transport ing lienor and was fined
$500. The court said he would al

leased on $10,000 bond. Two hun
dred veniremen had been sum

relatives of the accused men had
come from all parts of the country
The defendants include hid- nai
field, chief of police of Matewan,
