Up to 10 o'clock, however. according to
Gen. Rodenbough, Chief of the Bureau
Of Elections, there had been only six or
seven vacancies reported. These were
all ebsentees, who had failed to report
for duty at their respective place Of

to adorn the LXX.'s amended ticket.
After the meeting of the LxX.'s Ex-

pressing the belief that the LXX's en-

Detective-Sergt. George V. Zundt, Of
the Brooklyn Central Office squad. was
placed on trial before Police commits
stone, Welles this morning on charge
OF violating the rule of the Department
which requires all members OF the force
to pay 10 per cent. of all rewards into
TIE Police Pension Fund.
The trial had not proceeded more than
fifteen minutes when the hearing was
adjourned. The charge against Iund.
was the outcome of the Lexow investi-
cation in New York. Charles NJ. Pattcr-
son, a merchant, told "A story concerning
the peculiar manner by which he recoV-
cred a diamond pin which had been
stolen from him in Brooklyn \ year ago.
He gave Xundt "A check for $50 as re-
ward for recovering the pin
Police Commissioner Welles made an
exhaustive investigation of the matter,
and about week ago he exonerated
Zundt from Mr.. Patterson's suspicious

doing he threw out the testimony OF
the New York detectives. Lang and Nc

To sustain the present charge Commits
soneI Weles will have to rely upon the
testimony of Lang and McManus
At thestrial to-day II was admitted
bv Lawyer Mark ID. Wilbur on behalf
OF Zundt that the defendant had received
part OF the reward. although he had
not recovered the diamond. Lang and
McManus, who discovered It. got a por-
ton Of the money. They also told Zundt
to keep the money, 1t was alleged, be
cause Patterson had stopped payment
on another check which he had given
Iundt in payment for money loaned.
Mr.. Wilbur claimed that former Dep
uty Commissioner Dalton had given
Zundt permission to retain the reward.
Supt. Campbell corroborated the last
statement Commissioner Welles ad-
mltted having received a letter from Mr.
Dallon stating that Zundt had received
permission to receive the reward.
This reward belonged to the New
York men," said Mr. Wilbur. "They
found the pin and the reward was
theirs. II any pension fund should be
benefited by the reward 1t should be the
New York and not the Brooklyn fund.

ArraiGned for Murder.


CHICAGO. oct. 9.-After pleading
guilty to a charge of murder. Granville
n. packley was discharged last
evening by Judge Chetlin. The Court
directed that nolle pros. be en-
tered, and Hackley walked out of
court free. Hackley, who was a barber
in a shop on State street. cut Aaron b.
Bright another barber. on the arm with
a razor. Bright was taken to a hospital
and died
When the case was called Hackley
entered plea Of guilty. Judge Chetlin
said the evidence showed that Hackley
had acted In self defense. Bright was
shown to have threatened to kill Hack
ley. and, the day of the tragedy he
entered the barber shop in order to at
tack Hackley. The Court learned that
Bright bled to death. and that no proper
effort was made to stop the flow OF
blood after Hackley cut him.
The Court held that there was lacking
all the elements which go to sustain a
charge of murder, and that despite the
plea of the prisoner the Court could
not punish him.
