INTERCEDE FOR
GERMAN OFFICERS
Judge Advocate Proposes Sem
fences Of a Few Days for
Zabern Offenders.

Strassburg. Jan. s.-A strong plea vi
leniency was entered to-day by the judge
advocate in the case of Colonel Won Reu-
ter arid Lieutenant Schad, OF the s9th III
fantry Regiment. before the court-martlal
which is trying them for breaches OF the
law in connection with the recent violent
incidents between the military ana CIVIL
ians at Zabern, Alsace.
The charges were reduced 10 the simple
one against Colonel Won Reuter- or hoiu-
ing civilian prisoners overnight lhs'eau
of transferring them TO the care OF the
civil authorities Immediately, as required
by the law. and against Lieutenant schad
of striking one Of the prisoners IN the
face. and the Judge advocate proposed
for these offences a sentence OF seven
days Imprisonment for Colonel Won Reu-
ter and three days imprisonment LOT
Lieutenant Schad.
In his plea the Judge advocate argued
that the mob in Zabern had systemau-
cally molested and stoned the officers OF
the regiment for several days lie SAID
the police had shown utter incapaclty 10
deal with the situation, and, therefore
Colonel Won Reuter- was fully justified IN
intervening, while Lieutenant Schad mad
acted under the orders OF his superior IN
arresting people and forcibiy entering
houses Both officers he continued, would
have to resign from the army If the ve'-
dict of the court-martial followed the
lines proposed.
The judge advocate contended that the
editor Of a local paper in Zabern was
morally responsible for the troubles. lie
said the editor had stage-managed the
whole affair by repeatedly publishing
provocative articles.
A point was scored for the defence OF
the officers by the testimony of the last
witness. an officer OF gendarmerie, who
swore that the police of Zabern were I'M
able to handle the crowd, and that he had
recommended the civil authorities of the
town to call on the troops. The authorl-
ties. however, had declined 10 do so.
The verdict is 10 be returned on Satur-
dav at the same time as the verdict In
the appeal entered by Lieutenant Baron
Won Forstner against the sentence Oh
forty-three days Imprisonment inhlcteo
on him by a court-martial on December
10 for sabring a crippled shoemaker.
