Mrs. DeSaulles Acquitted.
(By Telegraph)

Mineola, L. l., December l.
The trial for murder of Mrs.
Bianca de Saulles, the beauti-
full Chilenean, married to an
American, Jack De Saulles, who
she killed, on August 3rd, by
shooting him, came to an end
this evening by a verdict of
mot guilty." the jury bringing
in its finding at 9:25 P. M.
This has been one of the most
celebrated cases in recent years.
The husband was a noted club
man and cocial favorite. The
wife was an heiress, who
brought to her husband mar
riage a fortune of $100,OO0.OO.
which he sbuandered within a
very short time. Then there
came a season of mistreatment,
neglect and abuse, all of which
came out in the trial, the de-
tense claiming that driven to
desperation by repeated acts of
cruelty upon the part of her
husband, the woman became in
sane, and in a fit of insanity
fired the fatal shot. The jury
seemed to have adopted that
theory, as exemplified in the
verdict of acquittal.
