1 SENATOR WHEELER ACQUITTED.
- At The Same Time Receives News Os
Birth Os A Daughter.
Great Falls, Mont., April 24.—Senator
Burton K. Wheeler, was acquitted of a
charge of unlawfully using his influence
as senator before the department of the
interior by a jury in federal court here
1 tonight.
The accused senator received two pieces
■ of good news simultaneously—liis acquit
tal and the birth to Mrs. Wheeler of a
’ daughter in Washington.
Senator Wheeler only smiled when the
verdict wa Judge Frank S.
Dietrich before the verdict was read warn
e dspeetators against any demonstration.
Exactly two hours and 13 minutes
elapsed between the time the jury retired
to deliberate and the time the verdict
was returned. Out of this time the jury
took cne hour to dinA The actual time
for deliberation was but a few minutes,
according to court attaches. But one bal
lot was taken.
. Despite Judge Dietrich’s order against
demonstrations, there was a rush toward
the bench when the verdict was read.
Friends of Senator Wheeler crowded about
him and offered double congratulations—
on the birth of a daughter and acquittal.
Senator Wheeler said he would issue a
statement for the press later.- His chief
counsel, Senator Thomas-J. Walsh, de
clared, however, that he had regarded
the case merely as an offshot of the Tea
pot Dome investigation which he start*
ed nearly two years ago and said he had
felt it his duty to appear as counsel for
I his accused colleague.

TWENTY convicts off
Fob ATLANTA PRISON
Group Convicted At Chariotte Cheerful
As the Pen Train Leaves.
Charlotte, April 24.—Twenty men,
handcuffed in pairs, most of them ap
parently philosophically resigned to their
fate and in cheerful'holiday spirit, left
the city early this morning in a special
car attached to one of the Southern fail
way's fast trains for Atlanta, Ga„ where
. they will serve terms ranging from one
to thrie years, imposed for various infrac
tions of the federal laws, at the recent
term of federal conrt .here. •
A large delegation of friends and rela
tives of the prisoners, augmented by a
goodly Collection of curiosity seekers, made
up an odd committee'to see the
men off for prison. Vy> :
Most of the prisoners puffed cigarettes
in comfortable and satisfied fashion and
smiled their good-byes to the crowd.
There were a few who didn’t smile. A
few who apparently didn’t see thp crowd
at all, but looked straight ahead from sad,
tired thoughtful eyes, is if peering deeply
into the future, or, perhaps,' into the
past and more happy days.
Three deputy marshals and Assistant
District Attorney Frank Patton accom
panied the men to prison.
Two well known physicians and a den
tist were included in the score bf prison
ers, having been convicted here last week
of violating the Harrison anti-narcotic
law. The physicians were: Dr. Frank V.
Taylor, of Stanley Creek) Dr. M. F.
Bhjles, of Ghstonia, and Dr. A. .V. Boyles,
dentist, of Dallas. The latter will serve
a year and a day, whOe the two phy
sicians were sentenced to serve 18 months
each. Jack Hunter, young white man,
convicted on a charge of violating the nnti
uareotic law, has the longest term : to
server-three years. „
Post and Flagg's Cotton Letter,
New York, April 24.—The market to
day has been a dull trading affair with
quotations working in a narrow range a
little above the 24-cent level around which
point, there appears to be a good demand
for cotton- Some early selling oh’the re
ports of good rains in the solthwent caus-'
ed a little weakness but the decline did
hot go far a sa trade demand on a scale
down and" week-end'covering absorbed the
ocerings with (ease.
Week-end statistics were about as ex
pected and had practically no ecect on
whe market, as the attention of the trade
is centered on the weather map. No
wide fluctuations are expected for the
time being, although the frisf May notice
may bring about some activity. Senti
ment on the floor is rather mixed but
there is a distinct feeling that the mar
ket is quite heavily short. .
POST AND FLAGG.
Must Hear Bible Read.
Thirteen students expelled from the
Faith, S. Dak., high-school, because they
refused to sit in the classroom while the
Bible was being read, lost their fight
for reinstatement. Judge McNenny ruled
that the schoolboard has authority to oust
them. The students protested that their
faith did not admit belief in certain parts
of the Bible.
