.ABELACQUITTED
BY JURY in THE
FEDERAL COURT
REQUIRED LESS THAN THIRTY
FOR DOZEN MEN TO CONCLUDE
THAT CHARGE OF m A NJ
SLAUGHTER NOT JUSTIFIED

J. z. Abel was last evening ac-
quilted of the charge OF manslaugh-
ter by the jury in the United States
District court. He was tried for
shooting and causing the death of
Private George NJ. T. Wilson of the
army, on the night of April IL. at
Warrington on the naval reservation.
The jury was about thirty minutes,
after the court had placed the case in
its rands.
Throughout the day counsel for
both sides fought every inch of
ground Uuited States District At
torney Neeley bringing to bear every
angle of the law to secure a convio-
ton.
Abel appeared to have the well
wishes OF the service men, there be-
ing legal representatives of the gov
ernment as well as a civilian attor-
ney looking after his interests,
The testimony OF Private Miller,
who was wounded at time OF the
affair by one Of the bullets from the
pistol of Abel, was favorable to Abel.
The whole case summarized was
that II was the question of the un-
written law and self defense.
1t appears that on the night In
question Abel was in company with
a young woman named Rich and was
on the naval reservation, preparing 70
take a street car TO the city. Soldiers

street car station and made some re-
marks to the couple which Abel re-
sented He approa the soldiers
and upbraided them for the kind OF
language they We're using.
Then IL was testified that the man
now dead made a move as II TO draw
a weapon from his pocket, where
upon Abel who was a policeman at
the station drew his revolver and be-
gan firing, one bullet striking Wilson,
he dying from the effects OF the
wound. Another bullet struck Miller
but the latter recovered.

Germans Have Lately Shown
Little of Theis Habitual
Fighting Spirit.
Associated Press Summary. J

Striking yiciously at the enemy at
various points along the western bat
tie front, and meeting each odtburst OF
German artillery with thunder OF
cannon fire, and maintaining mastery
of the air in every sector from the
North Sea TO the Swiss frontier, the
Entente allied armies are preventing
Teutonic armies from quietly perfect
ing their preparations for the coming
battles. With the knowledge that each
day that brings new American legions
to help crush the next German offens-
i've, the Allies are finding satisfaction
in the fact that the Germans are yet
unable to launch new blow. For the
most part tn eGermans have shown
but little of their habitual fighting
spirit along the line in France. They
have been thrust back in four sectors
and the Allies succeeded in winning
ground which will be of great impor-
tance in the future. The Germans
counter attacked but once, this time
with such lack of dash it was easily
broken up.

FOOD SITUATION
TN GERMANY Is
MOST CRITICAL
EVEN WITH REDUCED RATIoNS.
NOT ENOUGH TO CARRY Pop
uLATIoN THROUGH UNTIL THE
NEXT HARVEST.

WASHINGTON. May 21-The food
situation in Germany. officials have
believe. is the most critical it has
been at any time. Information reach
ing Washington from many sources
indicates that even with the reduced
ration planned for June Is. the coun-
try will not have enough food to cary
the population through to the next
harvest and that further reductions
will have to be made.
The reduced ration was to have
been put into operation March 1, but
the measure was postponed in the
hope that grain would be forthcoming
in large quantities from the Ukraine
When this hope vanished. the Ger
man government saw the reduction
was inevitable.
Germany began consuming her
1917 wheat crop two months before
it was intended to start on it, and
the German potato crop has not
turned out nearly so well as German
agricultural Interests had hoped.
