Second Findings of the Trial Board In
Foreman iYalsh's Case.

Foreman iyalsh's Case.
The Commissioners have approved the
findings of the trial board in the case of
Foreman Walsh of No. 9 engine-house, the
verdict of which is that he be reduced to the
ranks.
This differs from the former findings in
one respect only, the exception being the
omission of the fine and the failure to find
insoxiCation. and the present judgment viii
in all probability dispose Of the case finally.
A comment upon the foreman's record,
made by one of those whose duty it is to
know. is that as a fireman he excelled in
fidelity and prudence and ability, but
since he was promoted to position of
authority he has been involved in number
of difficulties, mainly due to his inability
to govern either himself or the subordi-
mates.
The 'wenzel CASE which obtains its
designation by reason OF the prominence
given to one OF the actors in 1t. is the
latest affair in which the foreman figured,
and the details are still fresh In the minds
of The Times readers.
The charges made against Foreman
Walsh. upon which the recent findings
were founded. were preferred formally By
Chief Paris. They consisted in allega-
tions of neglect OF duty, disobedicnce of
orders and intoxication. The verdict sus-
talneu tue IlfSt Two spcciflcdtioiis' anu uc-
clared the accused to be not guilty of the
third.
The typewriter report OF the trial. with
accompanying papers, embraced over 100
pages. the character OF the testimony ad-
duced having been outlined in The Times at
the time the investigation took place.
The trial board consisted OF John d.
Kurtz, Frank j. Wagner and W. T. SOr-
reli, and Walsh was represented by At
toruey Joseph Shillington.

BAGALEY DIVORCE SUIT
The Husband Is Willing His Wife
Should Get a Decree.
Judge Hagner Takes Papers Under
Amusement and VIII Prob
ably Free Her.

The Bag alley divorce case, which has at
trac;ed much attention 70 more than year,
because of the position in life OF the couple
and the admitted unfortunate condition OF
the husband, Mr.. Waterman P. Bagaley,
practically came 10 u close today.
Mr.. Bagaley appeared before Judge Hag-
ner at the calling OF the case with PAPER
In the nature OF a demurrer, which con-
Guided with request that Mrs. Bagaicy he
granted an absolute divorce.
In it he said he would not admit the
charges of cruelty and infidelity made
against him by Mrs. Bagaley, nor had he
changed his opinion as TO her immortality y
since the filing OF the suit, but for the best
interests of all he regarded IL as best that
the marriage bonds between them should
be dissolved. He asked that he be per
United 10 visit his children at all propeI
tunes.
Mr. Campbell Darlington, attorney for
Mrs. Bagdley, expressed surprise at this
action. and said IL did not change the
facts in the case. Mrs. Bagaley was en-
t,tlpd 10 Il divorce on the facts presented.
There was ample proof of cruelty as well
as of the other charges, and If The Judge
should read the testimony he certainly
would fird ground for granting his client S
petition.
Judge Hagner said he was considering
the paper offered by Mr.. Bagaley, hot those
adverted to by Mr.. Darlington. Tie paper
presented by Mr.. Bagaley only needed to
be put in legal phraseology TO constitute
q demurrer.
Judge Hagner recommended that the
paper be put in proper legal form, and At
torney j. j. johnson for Mrs. Bagaley
said he would write it properly and send
Il with his notes to the judge.
After some discussion of the question OF
Jurisdiction Judge Hagner said he would
take the papers in the case. He indicated
that decree would soon be made and
there is little doubt that it will be in ac-
cord with Mr.. Bagaley's request today.

got about the bill aud he kept II. The next
morning he mailed it 10 Government Agent
