POLICE AID in MuRpER7
Unusual Situation Presented in tn,
u Trial Of Bertha Claiche.

New York, Feb. 27.-An ususual sit
uation, temporarily overshadowing the
real issue Of the case, confronted the
court and jury when the trial of
Bertha Claiche, for the murder of
Emit Gerdron, was resumed today.
This was am inquiry into the part
which certain policemen are alleged to
have had in Gerdron's death. Charges
were made, yesterday by Assistant
District Attorney Ely, that two MEM
bers Of th,, police force aided the girl
In her deed, and promised her inmun-
ity. The largest part Of the opening
day was spent in Investigating this
phase Of the case. Ely brought out
evidence that letter was sent to
Gerdron before his death, and that at
ter it $500 was reported to have been
stolen from the body. Although he OBJ
tained no evidence to show who wrote
the letter or took the money, the pros
ecutor charged that policemen were re-
sponsible III both cases, and that by the
letter Gerlron was lured to place
where he was shot while under arrest.
Bertha Claiche herself, apparently had
only minor part in the first days
proceedings, except as spectator. She
frequently appeared to be greatly agf-
tated, especially during the prosecu-
tors arraignment Of the policemen.

principles controlling naturalization
are Incorporated in the BILL viz: That
before an alien can be naturalized he
must be able to write either in his own
language or in the English language

English language, and that the alien

To Show He's Not Henpecked.

Milwaukee, Wis, Feb. 27.-Ald. John
Weiher has decided to run for re-elec-
ton. Several days ago it was am
nounced that he had decided to retire,
and there was CONSERVATION among the
Poles, of whom he is king"
Then the news came that Mrs.
Weiher objected to his running for an
other term. He has been alderman for
fifteen years, and Mrs. Weiher served
notice thru the press that that was
enough, and that she was not going to
have an alderman in the family for
another year. 1t was up to John, she
said, to retire. She boasted that she
had influence enough to make him quit
the political game.
Since then Weiher's friends at the
city hall have had much fun with
him. Now, to show he isn't henpecked,
he has decided to run again.
