MURDERED HER CHILD.
Disagreement OF the Jury I'm the
Canaan Trial. and Their Dfscharee


Yesterday, in the Criminal Court, Judge Mac.
Arthur presiding, civil suits occupied the atten-
tioH of his Honor nearly the entire day.
At o'clock the jury in the case of Mary
Canaan, indicted for the murder Of her infant in
July last, having been out since $50 p. m. the
day previous, were sent for and brought into the
court room. After taking seats his Honor in
9uired II they had been able TO agree, and the
Judge Macarthur then said that they should
remember that the case had been tried once pre-
vieus without verdict being obtained. II this
had been the first trial they would probably not
have been kept together SO long. 1t was their
duty TO agree If they could reconcile their diff
ferenees. The case could never be better tried or
more thoroughly presented than it had been to
them.
It would be injustice to the public in one re-
spect and to the defendant in another, If the
was not determined He hoped, on reflection, that
they would be able to give verdict, and implored
Jurors TO conflne themselves strictly to their du-
lies: They had nc nothing to DO with the penalties;
ed that they give the case fuller consideration
and ordered them reconducted to their rooms.
After their retirement Mr. Pelham, counsel for
the accused, noted an exception regarding what
the Judge said to the jury concerning penalties.
At o'clock, in compliance with directions from
bis Honor, the jury once more were brought be-
fore him, and in response to his inquiry as to an
agreement Mr.. Miller, the foreman, said that
they had made every effort to reach an under
standing, but could not succeed
The Judge then discharged them, and the pris-
oner was remanded to jail.
Upon conversing with some Of the jurors 1t was
found that they stood ten for conviction and two
for acquittal. This was on the first ballot, and
no change took place through the entire time Of
their consultation. On the previous trial they
were nine for conviction and three for acquittai.
1t is not doubted that If they could have returned
q verdict Of guilty Of murder in the second degree
but that 1t would have been done; but under the
statutes governing the court this Is not admissible
No time is Likely to be fixed upon soon for the
third trial.
