This Advice Given in Ridi-
cule Of Bloch Case.
Verdict Sanctions Shooting
Rival in Affections.
---
The Unwritten Law, as Ap-
piled in this Case,
Does Not Meet General Ap-
proval of French Press.

Paris, Dec. 24.-Considerable a.
mazement is expressed by the French
press today that the court which ac-
quilted Nine. Bloch yesterday for kill
ing Mrs. Minnie Bridgman, of Mil
waukee, practically sanctioned the
fright to kill"
The theories proclaimed by Judge
Bertulus and Public Prosecutor Four
nier in the hearing are scored severe
ly by the conservative section of the
French newspaper writer's, who look
upon the doctrines laid down by the
court as imprudent and dangerous tc
society.
While several writer's declared IRON
ically that young women at last have
been taught the real rights of the
wife, the Tempts, after criticizing
the judges remarks, especially con-
demns the utterances of the public
prosecutor, whom it quotes as sayins
that Nine. Bloch's victim was all
picked out for her and that the vic
tim was her husband. "If she had
only shot him we should bow our as
sent"
eff such law is preached in the
French courts" comments the Temps
cit only remains now to place re.
volver among the gifts to bridal
couples, for the slightest suspicion:
however unjustifed. will dightfully
expose the husband to a lively fusi-
lade of shots"
Although the acQuittal Of Nine.
Bloch caused little surprise, the doc
trine laid down by the court officials
has become a great theme of discus
sion in Paris. while the judges re
marks that "a wound caused by jeal-
ousy always heals has become the
subject of lively debate in, the clubs.
newspapers and private circles.
