CHICAGO, Oct 15.-Policeman Albert
Junge was shot and MORALLY wounded this
morning ct 8 o'clock by Policeman Thomas
Madden. The men had travelled adjoining
beats. and there had been bad blood be-
tween them for some time. A few nights
ago they had serious quarrel. and after
ward Junge reported Madden at the station
for drinking while on duty. This made
matters worse. Last night ct roll-call at
their station Lieutenant Kane summoned
the men before him and questioned them
as to the trouble. Madden refused to re-
ply, and was told he would be sent before
the trial board. In reply, he took off his
club and star and threw them on the fiocr,
saying he would resign, and left the station
muttering threats against Junge.
He was seen in several saloons during
the night drinking, and at o'clock this
morning, while Junge was at the patrol
box reporting to the station, Madden came
up and fired three shots at him, one of
which took effect in his breast. The muir
derer then walked away and has not yet
been apprehended.
Officers at the station claim the men had
first qnarrelled about religious and other
matters. Madden accused Junge of being
member Of the United Order of Deputies,
an nti-Catholic society. Junge retorted
that Madden was Gamma Gael man. Out
OF this, officers say, the trouble grew.

closing speech against the professor. The case
to be decided, he argued, is simply one concern
