This followed what developed to be a red letter event in the Wheeler family Inst night when he stood in federal court here and received two messages simultan eously, one being his ncmiittal on a charge of wrongfully using his sena torial influence with the interior de partment and the other announcing the birth of a daughter in the Wheel er home in Washington. Ono Ballot Taken The verdict was returned two hours and 13 minutes after the jury had re tired to deliberate, and out of this time it took one hour for dinner. Hut one bHllot was taken. 1 . ... - In spite of an Hillnonition to spec tators by Federal .ludgo Frank S.

Rut court was in session only two minutes and his delighted followers were let loose without delay. He strode over to. the jury box and shook hands with each of the 12 men who passed on his case. Then District Attorney John L. Slnttery. who prosecuted him, ap proached him and shook his hand. "1 hope both the daughter and the verdict get along all right," snid Slnt tery, smiling.
