VERTREES' BODY is SHIPPED.
Remains Have Been Semitic Home
of Parents In Illinois For
Interment.

A marine guard was placed IN
charge of the body of Midshlpman IL.
l.. Vertrees, whose body was brought
to the Naval Academy last night from
Rock Hall where,it had been buried
several days ago at the instance of the
Kent county authorities.
The guard was placed over the body
at z O'Clock last night and remained
in charge of the remains until II
O'Clock this morning, when the body
was shipped to Bushnell, ILL.,, the
home of the young man.
Z Mr.. James s. TAYLOR, the undertaken,
had accompanied the gunboat to Rock
Hall and the body was placed in his
care. Some little difficulty was ex-
perienced in securing the body, owing
to the necessity of obtaining the
proper permits for its removal from
the county. We're it not for the care
lessness of n negro sdeck hand on the
steamer Emma Giles ins making a re-
port, the body of Vertrees could have
been secured one week ago. On Fri
day last while the Emma Giles was
passing Ithe bell buoy off Craighill
channel he discovered body floating
in the water.
The body was clothed in a pair of
swimming trunks and was undoubted-
ly that of Vertrees The wind was
blowing in a direction which would
have carried the body to the point
where it was found by Kent county
parties. The deckhand failed to re-
port the matter to the captain of the
boat because he feared that if he did
so he would have to handle the body.
As the body was really found and
identified by the Naval Academy au-
shorIties no reward for its recovery
will be paid anyone.
The services in connection with the
funeral of Vertrees were conducted in
a manner beftting the young man as a
midshipman in the service of his coun-
try. Services were conducted in the
old armory by Chaplain Clark, which
were attended by all of the members
OF the fourth class of midshipmen and
many officers and members of their
families. The remains. which were
encased in a metallic casket, and
dFaped in the American flag were
then placed in the hearse and removed
to the old line depot. The cortege was
headed by the Naval Academy band,
under the direction of Professor Zim-
norman.
Eighty midshipmen, in white service
unifrom, were in line under the COM
mand of Lieutenant A. Buchanan.
Chaplain Clark accompanied the
body to the train, where it was
placed aboard the train by the pail
bearers, who were MidshipmensSpe

EQUITABLE PROSECUTIONS.
Continued from First Page.

chief criticism has been due to the fact

time taken by Grand Jury in Its inveetl-
CATION OF cases is five minutes. IL H. true
that there are some cases that could De
disposed Of in a minute hut there arc others
which require most careful consideration.
MY opinion is that the Grand Jury does
not give fair and honest consideration TO
all the cases that come before It. An IN
dictment is only an accusation, but to the
world at large 1t is tantamount to a con-
viction for crime. Disgrace no man with

cause of the fact OF that unwarranted In
dictment against him. That mans future
prospects we're blighted by the Needless
ness and thoughtessness Of Grand Jury
instances.
"You must determine whether an in
dictment is sought for malice or for just
cause. You must ascertain II the COM
planning witness is seeking through Grim
inal action to recover a claim or to gratify
spite. If after an investigation You think
that the indictment is sought for these
reasons 1t is Your duty not to entertain
the complaint but to stand up and say 80,
Il charge you that you have the right
to call upon the District Attorney ana tne
court for advice and instruction. As the
District Attorney is now engag ed upon

that in that matter you will not give me
occasion to regret that you have not per.
formed your duty conscientiously ana

of the District Attorney because an in

SIG FOR KILLING A MAN. -.
Murderer's C0nfessi0 That He and An other
Were Hired BY Jealous SIitOr.

FRANKLIN Pa. July 6,-District Attorney
John l.. Mcbride made public tonight a
confession Of Walter Wheaton. now serv-
ing nineteen years in the Western Peni-
Tertiary for the murder OF George Carter
in Corn Planter township in 1898, in which
he says he was only an accomplice in the
crime. He says the actual murder was
committed by George Mckay, whose con-
fession in 1898 was the means of convict
ing Wheaton.
The important part OF Wheaton's con-
fession is his statement that he and Mckay
we're hired to kill Carter by j. NJ. Anderson.
who gave them SO and promised them $50
more. They got only SIP Wheaton says
Anderson was jealous OF the attentions
paid by Carter to a woman in the neighbor-
hood and wanted to get him out Of the
way.
During the trial of the case the Common
wealth was unable to assign motive for
the crime. Anderson testified in Wheaton's
behalf. He was not then suspected Since
the trial. however, he has disappeared
and it was because there was little hope
of experimenting him that the District
Attorney made public the confession.
While Carter was seated In his country
home reading a newspaper and surrounded
by his wife and children he was killed by
a shot through the window. Some weeks
afterward Wheaton and Mckay were ar
rested, and the latter made confession
in which he implicated Wheaton as the
principal. His story was corroborated in
nearly every detail at the trial and Wheaton
was convicted of murder in the second
degree. One Of the jurors while satisfied
of the prisoners guilt, was opposed to
capital punishment. Mckay was sent to
the reform school and has since been re-
leased
