Mor1tz Butler, who attempted to muir
der Miss Julia Wittgraf at Seventh and
Wabasha streets Nov. 2, shooting the
young woman down in cold blood, was
permitted by County Attorney Bigelow
to plead guilty to assault in the second
degree yesterday, instead of standing
trial on the charge of assault in the
first degree, as he was indicted, and re-
ceived sentence of but four years in
the penitentiary. Butler grinned with
satisfaction, as he listened to the lenient
sentence, and remarked, when being
taken back to the jail, that he would not
have cared had he been successful in
numbering Miss Wittgraf The young
woman has recovered from the two
wounds inflicted by Butler
The shooting of Miss Wittgraf took
place in in front of Michaud Bros gro
Gerry store early one morning, while she
was on the way to her place Of employ
ment with the Minnesota Tailoring COM
pany. One bullet struck Miss Wittgraf
on the left side of the face, breaking
the jaw bone, and penetrated her neck.
Another bullet struck her in the
back, but was DETECTED by her
corsets. Butler fired a third shot that
went wild, and was about to shoot again
when Officer White disarmed him.
Butler is Russian Jew, thirty years
of age. He came here from New York
year ago.
When arraigned before Judge Bum
for sentence he seemed little impressed
with the situation and smiled continuous
ly. Asked if he had anything to say, he
only remarked that he did not remember
the shooting. Attorney w. w Erwin,
appearing for Butler said in looking up
his clients antecedents, he had learned
that Butler had been restrained in Rus
STA as mentally deranged. Attorney Err
win said he believed Butler had been
engaged to Miss Wittgraf and had in a.
fit of dependency secured the pistol to
end his own life. In state of excite
ment, meeting Miss Wittgraf, he had
fired at her.
Five years In the penitentiary was the
maximum penalty that Butler could have
received on the lesser charge.
On motion of County Attorney Bigelow
the indictment against Mamie Womack,
accused Of robbing A. P. Johnson of $85,
was dismissed yesterday by Judge Bum.
The case against the woman, 1t was
stated, was not believed to be sufficiently
strong to warrant bringing Johnson here
to testify.

The American Campaign in the Philippine.

The American Campaign in the Philippines.
If were asked what was my direct
impression as to the results of our
campaign so far, l could faithfully an
swer that, considering the shortness of
time during which we have been oper-
ating, the character of the country over
which we have had TO eight, and the
strength and organization of the enemy,
which they had perfected through long
months of waiting, it has been thor
oughly successful one. People in
America, not understanding the condi-
tiOns, expect too much. When We
think that we made practically no
campaign outside of Manila until the
middle of March, that we have pene-
trated into the very heart of the enemy's
country with record of continuous
successful engagements during the
hottest and worst months of the year,
it is more fitted that we should con-
graduate our forces on their splendid
record. In view of all conditions, we
cannot fairly expect that the end of
the conflict should come before the next
dry season. Let us he reasonably
patient, keeping i'll mind the work that
already has been done, and give our
commanders and soldiers that support
and confidence which they desire and
need. General Otis should be provided
with all the soldiers he requires, and
the people of the United States should
stand by the GoVerment,in asking for
volunteers if they are needed; but un-
less unforeseen developments follow, it
is probable that General Otis will sbe
able to carry the war to a conclusion
with his present regiments recruited
