End of a Sensational Case in
Kansas City That Attracted
Much Attention.

| KANSAS CITY. Oct. 24.-John Schle-
gel. who one afternoon in July last, in
the center of the city, shot and killed
DR.. A. L. Berger, one of the most prom
| inent local men in his profession, was
acquitted at noon to-day The jury
had been out since last evening and
reached their verdict on the sixteenth
ballot. The first formal ballot stood
to ) for acquittal.
| Notwithstanding it was Sunday the
courtroom was crowded when the jury
returned its finding, and the spectators
gave vent to their feeling by shouts
and applause.
The case had been on before Judge
Woflord in the Criminal Court for the
past week and crowds have thronged
the courtroom daily. Probably no case
in the annals of the city has proven so
sensational as this one.
John Schlegel is a German grocer,
whose wife and two children had been
attended by DR.. Berger as their physi-
clan for years. Last November Mrs.
Schlegei told her husband that Berger
had criminally assaulted her while she
was in his office. Schlegel made many
threats on the doctors life, and at noon
on July Sth started out with a six
shooter bent on avenging the wrong al
legged to have been done his family.
Schlegel came across Berger at
! Twelfth and Walnut streets, one of the
busiest corners in the city. Without
warning save an incoherent threat,
Schlcgel approached the doctor from
behind and fired a shot into his body.
The doctor, recognizing his assailant,
made for a nearby door. He never
reached it, for a second bullet from
Schlegel's revolver brought him to the
ground.
DR.. Berger died on the way to the
hospital without having uttered more
than two or three unintelligible words
The announcement of his murder Gre
ated the profoundest sensation. After
committing the crime. Schlegel stood
unmoyed, the smoking revolver in his
hand and awaited arrest. He was told
that the doctor might live, and his only
remark was, Il am sorry I did not kill
| him: he ruined my home" An angry
crowd came near Wreaking vengeance
on the murderer before he reached Jail.
| DR.. Berger was the son of Dr. AdOlph
Berger of Lebanon, ILL.,, who was one
of the German patriots that sought
refuge in this country years ago. and
one of the faculty of the Kansas City
Medical College.
| One of the most sensational phases of
the trial was the production of a let
| ter which Schlegel, before the killing,
| had sent to County Prosecutor Frank
M. Lowe, suggesting a financial COM
| promise with Berger
