up by Private Thomas g. Jones, an
American. After taking his buddy to
safety, Jones disappeared. Back in
the lines again, Haley was captured by
the Germans and lost all trace of his
rescuer.
On May 20, 1921, Haley arrived at
the home Of his sweetheart in Canada.
His wedding was to occur at 8 o'clock
and the guests were assembled.
Then Private Jones reappeared. He
had deserted the army at Fort Slocum,
N. T., because, he said, they were going
to send him back to Germany. He was
suffering from mustard gas burns and
had a wife and two children dependent
upon him.
Haley acted quickly. Telling Jones
to return to his wife and keep quiet,
he informed his fiancee of his intention.
She declined to wait while he served
the term Jones would have to spend
in prison. At the hour Of the wedding
Haley took train for st. Paul, MINI.
He gave himself to the first police
officer he encountered, declaring he
was Private Thomas G. Jones, wanted
for desertion.
Tried by court-martial at Fort Crook.
Neb., Haley was sentenced to dis
honorable discharge and six months in

NEW TRIAL IS WON
BY INSPECTOR HENRY
Perjury Conviction Reversed
on Ground of Error.

The Appellate Division unanimously
reversed yesterday the conviction OF
DomlnicIt Henry. former Police 1nspec-
tor. on an indictment charging perjury.
A new trial is ordered on the ground
that Supreme Court Justice Barlow s..
Weeks, who presided at the trial, ad-
mitted evidence prejudicial to the de-
fendant. and that he neglected to charge
the Jury as TO the necessity OF corrobor-
alive proof. The higher court opinion,
prepared by Justice Samuel Grecnbaum,
also criticises the methods OF William
Rand. special Deputy Attorney-General
who prosecuted the case.
The law Is well settled that there
can be no conviction for the crime OF
perjury. where the only evidence OF
the false swearing Is that OF the accus-
aing Witness" Justice Greenbaun's opn-
ion read. IL sets forth that the dispute
between the District Attorneys Office
and the Police Department was not n
proper subject for the consideration OF
the Jury, In that no connection is shown

met a friend at the Waldorf Hotel at
40 o'clock. She did not appear at
the hotel.
Members OF the family and friends
OF Miss Wheeler said last night that
they believe she has been kidnapped or
killed herself, or perhaps has suffered
an attack of aphasia- They declared
that her life for almost twelve years
has been little else than trouble and
worry. Fer almost year, they said,
she has been bounded almost day and
night by detectives believed by her TO
be in the employ of Fisher, who followed
her about all day and constantly inter-
rupted her at night w calling her up
and even by hammering on the walls
Of the apartment next door.
Miss Wheeers marital affairs have
been in the courts off and on since 1907,
when Justice O'Gorman of the Supreme
Court awarded divorce to Fisher
Miss Wheelers family says that she
never was served in the action. and
that she knew nothing of it until a
friend who had helped Fisher became
conscious stricken and told her. She

fought the case through several courts
TO the Court OF Appeals and finally had

Greenbaum. who told Fisher that his
actions had been such that he was not

was set aside.
In 1915 Mrs. Fisher was persuaded
TO go TO Reno and establish residence
and sue Fisher for divorce. She did
so, but remained in Nevada only three

attention she became worried and wrote
to ;he Attorney-General of Nevada. set
ting forth all of the facts of her ease
and asking If her divorce was legal.
The Attorney-General replied that she
seemed to have been a party TO y

this preyed on her mind very much.
