In National Capital
GREAT FALLS. Mont.. April
OP) Senator Burton K. Wheeler
of Montana, Into vice-presidential
candidate and politicul storm center,
basked today in the double distilled
sunshine of fortune. 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.
Dietrich that there must be no dem
onstration in. the court room, there
was a rush for the senator when the
verdict was read. In his hand he
held the t .'gram announcing the
birth of n daughter. 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.
Statement Issued
Senator Wheeler later issued a
statement In which he dcclurcd the
verdict was what he expected and j
thankinr; Senator Walsh for his serv-
ices. 11c also said in the statement I
that his concern for Mrs. Wheeler !
was greater during the trial thou was!
his anxiety over his case.
