ALBERT BECKER HANGED.
The Chicago Wife Murderer Protests His
Innocence to the Last-His Case Sim
liar to AdOlph Luetge-ts.

CHICAGO, Nov. lL-Albert August
Becker. the German butcher, who on
January 81 last murdered his wife,
Rachel, and after wards chopped up
and boiled the remains in order to dis
pose of them, was hanged in the coun-
ty Jail al 1905 o'clock Friday after
noon.
Becler's neck was not broken by the
fall and it was l6 minute, before he
was nronoun Ell dead.
On the scatfold Becker protested his
innoct nee, and declared George Suffer-
In, the father OF his second wife, was
the real murderer.
The case in many ways bore a re-
markable similarity to that of Adolph
Luetgert. Both OF the condemned
men were butchers, and the motive for
the crime was the same in both in
stances, the desire to get rid of the
wife in order to marry a Younger
woman. The manner of commit
ting the crimes was also much
the same, both men, according to the
testimony. being extremely brutal in
the killing and both using the same
means to dispose of the body by boil
ing and burning. 1t was proven at
Becker's trial that after killing his
wife he had chopped her body to pieces
and boiled the remains on his kitchen
stove, afterward burying the remains
in various places. AS in the case OF
Luetgert, the rings of the murdered
wife played no small part in the testi.
mony leading to the conviction.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 3.-The Difficult
ties attending the administration of JUS
tice in Cuba and Porto Rico are pointedly
brought out in reports to the advocate
general of the army, General Lieber,
whose annual report was made public to-
day. Major Dudley, at Havana, states in
the course of report:

The opposition to complete change OF the

,lncommunicado' for example. is especially
assertion of such personal rights and liberties
as are already enjoyed by Americans under
American law will come sooner or later. as be-
ing essential to a free, self governing people
such as tae Cubans desire to be.
}. Dunn. judge advocate Of the Depart
ment of Santiago and Puerto Principe,
makes similar observations and says:
The supreme law on the Island of Cuba Is
that OF the supreme power of the United States
and will be SO long as an American remains
mere under existing conditions. be that for one
month or forever.
Major Sharp, acting Judge advocate of
Porto Rico, reviews the manifold diff
culties in dealing with brigandage, the
complex customs relating to marriage
and divorce, the crowding of jails with
men, women and children, who literally
rot while justice proceeds at snails' pace.
He says every substantial reform is eag-
erly received by the people, the opposition
coming from the small conservative ele-
ment. He deprecates the premature with
drawal Of this Government and the es-
tablishment of a territorial form of gov
ernment, as some of the Porto Rican

the most unfortunate measure that could
possibly befall the island. He adds:

for the place. For twenty years the very
same man who with matchless effrontery
now seeks to delude the Democratic resi-
dents of Sacramento into electing him to
the highest office within the gift of the
people has carefully nursed the party for
what there was in 1t. His treachery to
some of our distinguished citizens who
through his cajolcry, accepted nomina-
