to sudden termination through the sending l of q misaive from the StateA Attorneys office, and thereafter quiet reigned.
 The jury are reported to have been arguing | the case with much vigor Saturday, and through the jury room windows five or six | were to be seen gesticulating and evidently having session with refractory member, who seemed to hear respectfully, but to be unyielding. The jury yesterday were very quiet. During the forenoon the whole court room received acleaning. A force of ciean- CTS were busy at it for several hours, and the room being sweet and clean again, was turned over to the jury, who spent the-rest of the day there. They seemed to have ceased arguing yesterday, and were yesterday afternoon dis posed about the room, some lying, some sit ting, with either some kind of agreement reached, or having ceased hostilities under a truce. The jury slept most of Saturday night after 12 o'clock, and the stiffness was broken by some sonorous nasal sounds, giving evi- dence of pr ofound slumber. The jury were pretty well tired ont Saturday morning, but yesterday morning appeared quite refreshed. The building was closed to the outside world, and they were visited only by the sheriff and | his deputies, and occasionally messenger boy was dispatched after articles of clothing, the court allowing this condescension- Books, periodicals or newspapers, and all reading | matter was interdicted. Meals were served 1 morning, noon and night. Quite little col lection of scraps of paper was gathered to- gether from under the jury room window yes terday morning, being scraps most of which had been flung out of the window. On some of them were the names of members of the jury, the slips evidently having been used in the balloting for g life, and ru- nor says that these little mementoes sustain the 10 to 2 theory in favor of the ac- cused. Showing, however, the difference of opinions is the fact as mentioned in legal circles that there are for conviction. The walks in front of the court house were the stopping point for many last evening eager ! to catch some word or hint as to how the jury stood As reported elsewhere the Rev. Mir. Houghton preached last evening upon the
 trial. The prisoner passed quiet night Sat urday night, resting we'll and seemed to be quite sanguine and cheerful All matters are of interest in relation to this case and among
 the items gathered in are the following: Mrs.
 Hayden, who had been quite indisposed, was
 much restored yesterday and much less de-
 pressed. She was able to receive few call
 CTS, among whom were Messrs. Jones and
 Hubbard for the defense. She recently receiv-
 ed two tokens of respect and esteem from
 some unknown donor, residing on Division
 street in this city, the same being two taste
 full dresses, and the obligation thereby incur
 red is added to others from the same source.
 Also, when bowed down with grief, during
 Friday, when the jury came in for instruc- tions, various missives passed in at the door
 of the sherif's room, which, as it appears
 were messages of esteem and sympathy fo,
 this lady, one of which, it Is stated, was 8 mosI
 cheering and comforting epistle from the wife
 of very prominent local clergyman. A let
 ter of sympathy was also received by her from
 distant State, supposed to be from a class
 mate of Mrs. Hayden at the State Norma
 School of Massachusetts, of which she is {
 graduate. Dispatches were received at this
 office last evening fro m newspapers in distant | States asking the latest from the Hayden jury
 The court comes in at o'clock this morning
 when the jury will undoubtedly make some | kind of report.
 Important New Evidence for Hayden Reported
 Among the spectators at the court room
 Saturday was a lady of this city, related ii
 Rockland, who is reported to be the posses
 sor of important testimony, which she wa
 restrained through fear of getting on to tn,
 witness stand from giving, and which it ii
 claimed would have resulted in an acquitta of Hayden. Those who became acquainted
 with the nature of her revelations took imme diate steps to acquaint counsel for the de , fense of what had been thus communicated and it was received as testimony of a yer! , important character.
