New York, Sept. 1S.-Made jealous
by the girl for whom he had given up
his military career, Lieutenant Julius
Hoffman of -Hungaria today
shot Draga Seigel, the daughter of his
former general, and an heiress to an
estate valued at 100000. Hoffman
then attempted to shoot himself. The
girl, after she had been shot dashed
the pistol from Hoffman's hand. He
is now almost a raving maniac. He
has a wife in West Virginia who is
suing for a divorce, and who is also
suing Miss Seigel for fifteen thousand
dollars for alternating her husbands
affections. Miss Seigel is to come in
to her fortune on her twenty-first
birthday, which is only a few days
away. Hoffman is now manager of a
candy factory in this city.

EXECUTIVE GLEMENCY

Special to the Herald
xch.ca2n IL Sent 1S-,Attorney
General Bonaparte, addressing the
National Prison Congress today. said
that the power Of pardon of the exec.
utive was often necessary to obtain
evidence against criminals. Injustice
of conviction, excessive severity, and
justice often demand clemency. The
last appropriate reason for executive
clemency is found in the occasional
necessity of obtaining evidence from
one wrong-doer to secure the conyic-
ton and punishment of another.
