Wheelock purchased from the North Waukegan Harbor and Dock association for $91.000 a tract of 257 acres of land having a frontage of a mile on the lake shore, and a deed to the property was delivered. The basis of the sale was $350 an acre. This land is In addition to the 4.000 acres of land that Mr. Wheelock has secured either by purchase or by options terminating on Feb. 1.

The land bought yesterday Is chiefly valuable on account of Its lake frontage. Fifteen years ago this piece of property was considered practically valueless. Real estate men are still guessing as to the parties behind Mr. Wheelock. Rumor still connects the names of Frick and John D.

Rockefeller as the capitalists but this is denied. It has been rumored that Dowie Intended building a City of Zion on the land. but the fact that the men in the enterprise have applied to the government for permission to build a harbor to the belief that the land Is wanted for faanufacturing purposes. An authority on north shore property said yesterday that he considered the sale significant; that. the parties behind Mr.

Wheelock must be satisfactory, otherwise the. North Waukegan Harbor and Dock association would not have been willing to part with so much lake frontage. as it has more than 1.000 acres remaining. This property would be depressed In value by undesirable neighbors. The Chicago Real Estate board's annual banquet will be held at the Grand Pacific Hotel at 6 o'clock on Friday evening.

Madden's plan for the establishment of a permanent arbitration board. They will recommend to their respective organizations the adoption of the plan. That the unions and the contractors' associations will accept the plan is regarded as almost certain. As the unions will act in this matter without regard to the action Of the majority of the organizations with which they are affiliated, it will take some time before all the thirty-two unions in the Building Trades Council will have adopted the plan.

Some may refuse to do so, but the majority is expected by labor men to accept the advice of their representatives upon the committee. With the contractors, action on the plan will be taken in a shorter period, as the one central organization can bind all trades organizations to do the same. Mr. Madden's plan calls for the establishment of a permanent board of arbitration of ten members. Not all the details of the plan have been settled.

An amendment was made te the original plan, limiting the time for arbitration. This overcame one of the serious objections to the plan, workmen fearing the contractors would take advantage of the plan by completing buildings while the board was at work. Federation Meeting The visit of the Executive board of the American' Federation of Labor, whIch was to have commenced today, has been postponed until Jan. 3 on account of the health of President Samuel Gompers. Thomas I.

Kidd. Sixth Vice President of the federation, said: The principal business will be to make a decision in regard to levying a certain important boycott. While in the city the board will also decide whether or not to grant a charter to the Chicago pianomakers." The Building Material Trades council has established a defense fund to which each member will contribute 10 cents a week. As the organization has over 20,000 members in good standing the amount paid in will be about $2,000 a week. The immediate beneficiaries of the fund will be the members of the terracotta-makers and sheet metal workers, who are now engaged in a strike.

In the meantime an investigation will be made by Gray's friends.

If Gray had been a white man the detectives never would have refused his request to be taken home so he could prove his identity." It was nothing more than murder," said T.

Covington, 2210 Indiana avenue. The difficulty in proving any blame on the detectives lies in the fact that they are the only witnesses of the shooting." If Gray had been a white man there would have been no trouble." said Alonza Malone. 375 Thirty-first street.

Chicago, Dec. 25.lEditor of The Tribunal Permit me to say a word to you in regard to the killing of one of our most prominent colored xens on Saturday night last by officers of the Stanton 'Avenue Station. Having known Mr. Gray personally for the last ten years, I cannot it in silence and listen to the story of the officers of the Stanton Avenue Station that Mr. Gray was under the influence of liquor at the time of his arrest.

and I am certain, had it not b-2en for extreme abusiveness on the part of the officers, the shboting would have never occurred. Mr. Gray was a faithful man to his employers, Aldis. Aldis a good man to his family, and always willing to invest in legitimate business enterprises. It seems to me.

had the officers used any precaution when they took Mr. Gray under suspicion, the shooting would have been avoided. It is customary for officers to search a suspicious character immediately after taking him in possession. 1 am sorry that their negligence and ablsiveness caused the death of a good man. O.

A post mortem examination will be held this morning.

He was 26 years old and was born and reared in Chicago. His last engagement was with Grossman's minstrels. Previously he worked In vaudeville, doing an Irish sketch and monologue In the Chicago vaudeville houses.

John Anderson, and for the protection of other citizens who may be called upon hereafter to serve es -jurors in the Criminal Court, we request that you publish the following statement: The chargeassault on a girl of 9 years 'Was such in its character that when we were examined as to our competency some of tie hesitated to say we could give the defendant a fair and impartial trial. However. we were all accepted and sworn to render a fair aud Impartial verdict on the evidence in the case. We listened attentively to all the evidence. and we can say that there was an entire failure of proof by the State that a crime had been ccyrnmitted or attempted.

Numerous witresses testified that the reputation of one of the people's leading witnesses was bad and that of the defendant good. The defendant's own manlier and bearing on the stand and throughout the trial were also such as to Indicate the truthealness of his testimony. We listened to the Judge's instruetions with care 7 and, while we cannot give the lenguage. we know he told us that the law cast on the prosecution the burden of proving the defeniant's guilt, as charged in the Indictment. beyond a reasonable doubt, and unless we were FO satisfied it was our duty under our oaths to acquit the defendant.

Ballots in Jury Room. We retired to the jury-room and discussed the evidence for about ten minutes, after which a ballot was taken. Upon the first ballot only one juror voted for conviction. The evidence was again discussed for a short time and another ballot taken. which resulted 'n a unanimous vote for We not only were not convinced beyond a reasonable doubt of the defendant's guilt.

but from She evidence we came to the conclusion that the man was Innocent of the crime charged. It should be borne In mind that all knowledge of one fact which was known to the Judge ways kept from the jurynamely: that the -defendant's attorney had offered to have his client plead guilty of a simple assault if the graver charge were withdrawn. and this offer had been refused by the State's Attorney. If thie fact had been before me it might have affected us to some extent. though it is perfectly consistent with the defendant's innocence for a cautious lawyer might well advise his client to pay a small fine for an offense of which he was not guilty rather than run the frightful risk of conviction of a crime concerning which the mere accusation kindles a suspicion of guilt.

which is a powerful factor in influencing same minds. Bound by Oaths. We couid find noother verdict Under our oaths upon the evidence before us. We were bound by our oaths as jurors, as much as the court by his oath as Judge. -Yet for thus doing our duty we were publicly reprimanded and insulted by the Judge, and an attempt was made by him to fasten a reproach upon our characters, lives, and homes.

Some of the newepapere, without inqvariag into the evidence before us or seeking to learn the facts as they appeared to us. have taken up the outery against us. --The Judge and the State's 'Attorney were satisfied with our qualifications as jurors until we dared to differ with the Judge as to the guilt of the defendant. Does the fact that we did take a different view oe the case from the Judge change our qualifications or lower our moral or mental capacity? We are not lawyers. but simply businessmen who were called.

many of us at considerable inconvenience and loss to ourselves, to serve the State as jurors in cases where men's live-s and liberty were at stake. There is no higher duty of American citizenship. and, while not so remunerative an office as that or Judge. the obligations Imposed upon conscience are as balding and solemn. We are plain bueiness-men, but our characters and reputations are as dear to us as Judge Brentano's are, we trust.

to him. With one exception. the jurors in the ease are all men of faintly. many of them with children of tender age of their own. and had the evidence shown the defendant guilty we Would net have hesitated a moment to so declare by our verdict.

for no penalty the law can inflict would be adequate to punish such a crime. 1. Refer to Constitution. The conetitution guarantees to every person charged with crime a trial by a jury of twelve men. If jurors in discharging the sacred trust thus committed to them are to encounter the peril of censorious rebuke from the court, the obloquy of the press, the scorn of the community, and the loss of reputation whenever in the performance cf their duty they find a verdict which does not accord with the views of the Judge.

then the liberties of the citizen guaranteed by the coestitution are in danger. Tyranny Is not the exclusive attribute of Eings. There have been Judges known to exerciee it. If it is better for the community that all persons charged with crime shall be tried by Theodore Brentano, let us amend the eonstitution and the laws. If it is better for the community that a jury of twelve men stand between the citizen and loss of life or liberty.

than that all which is dear to man depend upon the whim or caprice one man. then let us have an end of this tyrannous habit in which some Judges inaulge of abusing jurors for exercising their judgments and being faithful to their own consciences and oaths. Honest jurors have before now stood betvieen a free people and theasubverslon of the liberties. In conclusion we call attention to the fact that the abuse of the court's prerogative in cases like this has not escaped the attention of the lawyers. At the annual dinner of the Bar association in this city on Thursday night President S.

S. Gregory condemned th e. practice which has grown up in, the Criminal Courts of censuring Juries for bringing In verdicts which, in the opinion of the Judge. are wro-ng, and said: This practice is wholly without warraret of law, is subversive of the provision, of the constitution and destructive of the guarantee of the right of trial by jury. It cannot be justified ander the law and should be condemned." Joint H.

Zudge Brentano's Comment. Judge Brentano, when his attention was called to the statement of the Jurors, said: The testimony was so conclusive that any lateliigent man could have seen through the weak defense. The man wanted to plead guilty to a simple assault, but Mr. Olson aild myself would not permit Such a crime as this should be punished heavily. 7-he verdict was an outrage against society.

The Jurors say that a Judge had no right to censure them. A Judge sits to administer Justice and to serve that end he can take a jury to task when le brings in such an inSamous verdict." Prosecutor Olson's View. Assistant States Attorney Olson said: Although I agree with his Honor In what he says about the case and while I feel that rrie jury had no right to bring in a verdict such as It did, yet It is a fact that the first case which a jury tries invariably results In acquittal. They do not seem to realize the erirnee and their sympathies naturally go out to the men at the bar. I feel safe in saying that had the jurors who acquitted s- sat on his case a week later, when they had had some experience, they- would have given him a pentitentiary sentence."

Marchand 11 2 S.C1ark.Tel.M.1985. Residents of Chicago whose houses are heated by naturaLegas or whose ranges are supplied with it had reasons yesterday to know it was cold, or at least to realize defects in the cooking apparatus. The People's Gaslight and Coke company, by which the natural gas is furnished, was appealed to and promised relief, but the succor was not forthcoming. Househelders jumped at the conclusion that the pipe lines of the company had been frozen up. but the gas trust officials protested that such was not the case; that one of the regulating plants down in the gas fields of Indiana bbrned on last Friday morning and that this caused some trouble.

The gas officials said further that repairs had been made and that a sufficient supply would be furnished in the future. Complaints, continued however, through the evening. Mrs. S. T.

Wilson, 3947 Michigan avenue, filed a novel suit during the day in the Superior Court. asking for $10,000 from the People's Gaslight and Coke company, alleging that in 1894, in spite of a contract which she had with the Chicago Economic Fuel Gas company for the supply of fuel gas with which to heat her house. the latter company, on coldest day of the winter shut off her supply of gas. She said she thereby lost a number of boarders and that she and her three children sustained severe colds. DECIDES ON STRIKERS' RIGHTS.

Dec. 26.Judge Morris, in the Common Pleas Court, today rendered an unusual decision as, to the rights of striking Workmen. The members of the Bicycle Workers' union struck at the Standard tube and forkside works. A temporary injunction was granted restraining strikers from patrollIng the works and accosting and intimidating who took their places. This inj Unction Judge Morris today dissolved, holding the strikers had a perfect right to keep pickets about the works and to talk to workmen Und urge them to come put.

He held there was no positive evidence of threats and that the number of men employed at the works exceeded the number of strikers usually kept on picket duty, so there could be no danger of personal violence.
