GIVEN A LIGHTER SENTENCE.
The German Lieutenant Who Killed n
Man for Brushing Against Him.

BERLIN, January 27-Lieut. Won Bruse-
witz, as a result of the-second trial ordered
by Emperor William, has been sentenced
to Imprisonment for three years and twenty
days for killing workman at Karlsruhe
by running him through the back with his
sword.
The workman's only offense was that he
accidentally brushed against the lieuten-
ants chair while entering cafe, for which
he was pursued and killed by the angry
lieutenant, who imagined that his honor
had been tarnished by the alleged insult.
The first sentence of the lieutenant. i'm
posed in October last, was that he should
be imprisoned for four years in a fortress
and dismissed from the army. The affair
led to a popular agitation against dueling
and the arrogant conduct Of German off,
GERS generally, ending apparently in a
heated debate on the subject in the reich
stag and the drawing up of plans for the
reform Of the military courts of honor, &c.
The first sentence imposed on Lieut.. Won
Brusewitz was annulled by the emperor
and q second trial was ordered.
