It knew that Sinclair's attorneyhad deliberately lied when lie told thecourt at the Previous tiral that Sin-clair had no connection with the bondsof the Conltinental Trading Company,Ltd., a statement which lie completelycontradicted in his brief last week.And ill the face of all this, Sinclairstands today acquitted of all chargesof corruption. While the jury standstoday convicted of first degree incom-IPetenlcy. And when the senators begin,Deplor ing a situation of this kind-"youcan't convict $100,000,000 dollars"-itIis time the -people bestirred themselvesinto sonze action on the legal prlobjlenis of today.
