CHICAGO, Sept. 20. The, jury ina the case
OF Manson McMullen, James Sheehan and
perennial Sheehan, charged with the most
gieantic :4og steal ever perpetrated, where
blythe pel.s OF Phil Armour and others at
tn. stock yards were depleted of porkers
aggregalipg IN value over half q million
ofSdollars, was discharged by Judge Moran
this morning, as being unable to agree.
This case WAS given 10 the jury at 70
o'clock yesterday. Some hours later ten
of the jurymen voted together for the ac-
quittal of the defendants, but the other two
held out firmly for G. conviction to the last.
The remaining five cases of hog-stealin @
were allowed to go over to hext Monday,
when the case Of James Sheridan will be
taken up. Judge Moran announced
that the attorney must be ready to pro-
ceed with these trials next week, as no
further delay would be granted for their
convenience, several such delays having
already been given them to allow them to
attend to cases in other courts. The cool
ness of the operation may be judged by
the audacious statement OF HARRY, the
squealer, the principal witness for the
prosecution, who said on the stand that the
object of the gang was to break Armour.
''But, don't you know Armour is worth
S5,0O0,000 or $6,000,0o0?" was asked him.
Yes was the reply, 'but we thought we
could get away with that mach in time if
they left US alone long enough
