The termination Of the Luetgert trial
in Chicago last week by verdict Of
guilty is the close Of one of the most re-
markable criminal case, on record. AT
the eud Of the first trial the division Of
public opinion as to whether the guilt
was fully proved was fairly reflected ia
the inability Of the jury to agree. The
second trial occupied less prominent
place in the public view and resulted in
no division of the jury. Yet the Turk
ing doubt at the bottom of the whole
case projects itself in the compromise
verdict. making the penalty imprisoH-
ment for life, which is a logical self-son-
tradiction II Luetgret committed the
act charged. he committed cold-bloOd
ed aud deliberate murder that deserved
the severest penalty that the law can in
aict, If be aid not commit i his i'm
prisonment for life is miscarriage a
justice. The verdict really means that
the jurors think that Luetgert murdered
his wife and threw her body into the vat
but are not sure enough to hang him.
The verdic. does not express the degree
of the crime. but the degree Of certainty
on the part Of the jury that the crime is
proved. 1t is not the logic of law, but
liz is human nature.

noon He was accompanied to the depart
ment by his son, Lieutenant Joseph Wheel
er, who is stationed at West Point as in
structor of mathematics. The younger
Wheeler is anxious to go to the front, but
it is likely that his services will be con-
tinued at the academy.
General Wheeler Is now one of the most
conspicuous figures in Washington, and is
being made much of at present His man
ner is somewhat changed, not that he is
less genial or communicative, but one in
stinctively feels in coming into his pres
ence that the little cavalry leader is about
to assume role upon which his whole ma
ture is rveted and conferred General
Wheeler refuses to talk about his appoint
ment either TO confirm or deny it, but one
seeing in and about the war department
can have little doubt that his name is al
ready linked with this contest as it will
become a part of it's history. 1t is very
doubtful if Alabama will be given brig
adier-general and a major-general, too. 1t
is possible, however, and there are sew
eral applicants Ex-Governor Jones is said
to be an active candidate and Colonel Clark
another. General Shelley is an aspirant for
the honor, and William A. Youngblood,
third auditor of the treasury, is another.
Neither Senator Pettus nor Senator Nor
gan will indorse any until the president
intimates his intention to give brigadier-
general to Alabama, in which case they
will review the qualifications of the ap-
picants and indorse the man whom they
deem the best fitted for the post.

OFFICER CAHILL
OF POLICE FORCE
rendered His Resignation to the
Board of Police Com
missioners.

The board of police commissioners held a
special meeting in the council chamber at
the city hall last night to investigate
charges which had been filed against Of
fcer Cahill and the transaction of such
other business as might come before it.
There were present Chairman Lane and
Commissioners Garrett, Lesser, Fox and
McCartin.
Charges had been preferred against Of
ficer cahill by negro boy, who claimed
that he had been arrested without cause by
Officer Cahill, while the officer was under
the influence of liquor.
Quite a number of spectators were pres
ent, but the entire matter was brought to
a sudden termination when the resignation
OF Officer Cahill was rendered to the board
which was accepted.
Mr.. Lesser asked as a question of in
formation whether or not the men employed
by Street Tax Collector -GambiIl were I'M
der the supervision of the board. He said
that he had been seen by q gentleman in
regard to preferring charges against one
of these employees, who wore the uniform of
a policeman and had insulted him.
Mayor Evans had been unable to tell him
TO whom the charges should be made and
Mr.. Lesser himself was uncertain about
the matter. 1t was the opinion of the menu
bers of the board that the employees of Mr.
Gambill, while they had not been elected
by the board, had been sworn in as special
officers and were under the jurisdiction of
the commission.
The board then went into executive ses-
sion to fill the vacancy caused by the res
ignation of Officer Cahill
All officers below him were moved up one
number and Joe Cunningham, former
member of the force and at one time city
warden, was elected supernumerary No. q,

The other committee, with c. c. Caper-
ton, colored, chairman, met at 1926 o'clock
and went into executive session. A COM
mittee composed of DR.. ]. w. Hughes, T.
