Three Lynchers Convicted. Wetumpka, Ala., Aug. 31.-The jury in the cases of John Strength and Martin Fuller, charged with having participated in the lynching of Robert White, a negro, returned a verdict of guilty of murder in the second degree and sentenced the defendants to ten years in prison. This makes three convictions in these cases, George Howard having been sentenced to life imprisonment a few days ago after pleading guilty.
