THE COURTS.

A VERDICT m THE ULLMAN-MEYER CASE.
THE AMOUNT OF DAMAGES OVER 9l,000--TAg
JURORS EIGHT HOURS IN CONSULTATION.
There was little more than standing room in
the United States Circuit Courtroom yesterday morning
when Judge Wallace began his charge to the jury In the
Ullman-Meyer breach Of promise case. ALI the parties
TO the suit early in attendance and after the usual
premnaries the Judge proceeded with his charge. 10
IL he said
You have listened very patiently for several days TO
the narrative OF the rise and progress and decline OF the
existed between these parties And while from he
OF the narrative many things which were euc-
dated might naturally appeal the OF the ndc.
rous you are take up the case and consider II in
ls serious aspect Fortunately cases OF TINS character
rare, especially in this court AS rule parties who
have injured by rupture Of engagements for mar
rage prefer TO submit TO the unfortunate consequences
rather than bring their msfortunes into court and ex
pose to the glare OF publicity the episodes aud incidents
OF delicate character, and IL IL generally thought that
the remedy of the law is more intolerabe than the
wrong.
After sketching briefly the evidence and tho
defence set up by the defendants counsel Judge
Wallace said that the only issue for the
Jury to determine was whether there had been
breach Of contract and then 20 determine the amount Of
damages the plaintiff was Untitled TO.
The jury retired at 1890 O'Clock. At hafpast
o'clock they into court and reported that they
were unable to agree The foreman said thathe thought
IL would be impossible for them to reach unanimous
conclusion One OF the jurors remarked that they were
only divided on the the question as to the amount OF
the damages ThereupOn Judge Wallace instructed them
10 retire again and give further consideration 10 te case
As the time for the adjournment OF the court ap-
preached Judge Wallace gave Instructions that in case
the jury should before 10 O'clock sealed verdict
should be handed 10 the clerk II at that hour AN agree
ment had not been reached, his instructions were that
the jurors should be discharged AT O'CLOCK In
the evening word was received from the Jury-room
that a verdict had been agreed upon Therenpon the
judges instructions obeyed To the sealed verdict
and The jurors discharged for the night The
dct Is understood s for the pantbut several OF the
jurors when questioned TO tue amount OF damages
awarded declined to give definite information one
Juror, however said that the amount was more than
