bodies to date. The steamers wireless

1S9 bodies on board. 1t Is therefore as

DETROIT, April H.-Moving little Os-
car Witt to second base and switching
Jim Delehanty to left field is the solution
to the problem that crowds the mind OF
Hughie Jennings.
Left field is the center OF thought ano
worry. Five men have been picked by
Jennings in the last two months to play
the position, and of these five Jim Dele
hanty is the only one who has still to be
oficially put on the Job. In the order In
which they were picked the Ave are:
Hank Perry. Davy Jones. George Moriar-
ty. Oscar Witt and Jim Delehanty.
witt is in left at present. Jennings
plans to switch him to second base and
try Delehanty in left. ''Dels" bad knee
is giving him trouble. slowing him down
and worrying hip. Delehanty is not an
able fielder at second. The injury natu-
rally prevents him from covering much
territory. He is hard hitter ana az s,s

must therefore be kept at work. owing to

JURY SAYS DUTCH

Jury in Second Trial Releases Constable
 Charged With First Degree Murder
Special to the News.

Special to the News.
 Little Rock, July 22.-"Dutch" Jones was acquitted here this morning in the Pulaski circuit court on the second trial for the murder of Police Sergeant Camp bell in the red light district" of this city April 19.
 Very little new testimony was introduced in the second trial and it looked as if the jury would disagree yesterday evening.
 The closing hours of the cele brated murder trial were enliven- ed by fierce legal battle. Not in many years has there been such an evenly divided contest of attorneys at a court of law in the county. Lewis Rhoton, famous for his mercilesS cross -examina- tion, was met shoulder to shoul. der, in the conduct of the case, by Gus Fulk, the keen witted at torney for the defense; and Judge Frank T. Vaughan, veteran of hundred murder trials, divided oratorical honors with Robert l.. Rogers in argument and presen- tation of law and evidence. These were in turn ably assisted by Judge J. T. Bullock for the state and Will Akers for the defense. At every stage of the legal battle these six attorneys were wide awake and quick to see and make use of their advantage.
 Jones will at once resume his office as constable of Big Rock township and as the democratic nominee will be elected in Sep. tember.

 Partly as a result of the use of the machine which Burns has made ia nous in criminal prosecutions, the po- lice of many cities are looking for five men wanted in connection with the Rosenthal murder Circulars were sent out asking the police of America to pick up "Whitey" Lewis, Harry Horowitz.

 Doubts Method of Escape.
 Threshing out all probable and some improbable theories that might help in clearing up the Rosenthal murder, District Attorney Whitman admitted that he doubted whether the assassins of the gambler escaped in the much described gray car Whitman said the automobile standing near the Met ropole, with it's number tag plainly visible, might have been "a blind; that the men who climbed into it after the shots were fired might have done so to distract attention from the murderers, who could have walked away unnoticed.
 Acting under instructions from Com missioner Waldo, several detectives went to Paterson, N. J., to search in the Italian colony there for 'Dago Frank" On other occasions when the Italian has been wanted in New York he has been found hiding in Pater- son.
