WIN. SAGER is
SENTENCED TO PEN
East Chicago Man Sentenc
ed to 2 to IA Years
Indeterminately.

william Sager employed at the VIII
liam Graver Tank Works in East Chi
cago. and charged with shooting his
wife, today found guilty OF the
charge and sentenced to from two to
fourteen years In the penitentiary. but
on account Of extenuating circun-
stances sentence was suspended and
he was released. The case was up be-
fore Judge Lawrence Becker.
Attorney d. p. Boone appeared for
Sager. J R. Graver. Of the Graver
Tank Works. and J. \. Goelz signed
sagers bond. which was placed at 81
600. and he was released under parole
to Graver. He viii be compelled to
make monthly report to the prison
authorities as though he had been re-
leased from prison on parole
Mr. Graver interceded for his en-
p1oye for the reason that he had been
working for him for sixteen years and
this is the first trouble he has ever
been In There We're insinuations that
Sager was justified, to certain ex-
tent, in making the attack
Attorney u. 2 Boone representing
Sager said that the night Of the shoot
ing Mrs. Sager returned to the house
at or o'clock in the morning and
the quarrel which followed resulted
in the shooting.
He says that sager did not attack
her following the expiration Of his
peace bond but that Mrs Sager be-
came frightened for fear that he would
and had him arrested.
The suspension Of sentence was due
to the fact that both Mrs. sager and
influential friends Of the defendant
asked to have sentence suspended 50
that he need not be compelled to go to
prison. The charge against Sager
was assault and battery with intent to
kill.

With all speed the machine was rushed
to Mercy hospital
The scene at the hospital last night
when Alice Roosevelt Longworth greet
ed her father. the Colonel as he lay in
his bed with would-be assassin's bull
let in his breast. was a strange mixture
of joy and pathos, in which the former
presidents indomitable optimism event
ually prevailed
Mrs. Longworth was accompanied to
the hospital by Mrs. MediI Mccormick
and George f. Porter. assistant treas
urer OF the national progressive ticket.
She was escorted Immediately to the
third floor by Colonel Cecil Lyon, for

lay. she stopped long enough to warm

bravery for leaping on Schrank after
he had fred the first shot.

eyes growing misty. You probably

Follow this remark. her express
sion of concern returned with greater
emphasis than a moment before.
where is father7~ she asked with
childish eagerness.
Colonel Lyon pointed TO a nearby
door which Mr.. Martin silently threw
open It was like the lifting OF a cur
tain in drama AS Mrs. Longworth
saw Colonel Roosevelt lying supine
In a snowy bed she stood trahs1xed for
the fraction OF a second and then rush
ed forward
.'Oh. father was the glad cry.
Tut, tut, I've only got scratch.
deA--

Corrnick's remarks.
A nurse came into the room, held UP
q warning finger. and the two visitors

away in the automobile which had
brought them TO the hospital.
The rest OF Colonel Roosevelts fam

dark serge taiIor-made suit. a black hat
with white trimmings and a corsage OF
orchids.

two things: That the prisoner
at no time asked to see n
newspaper and that he made
no inquiry whatever regard

not informed as to whether
Col. Roosevelt was dead or
