OPPOSED TO HANGING.
1t Appears the Brooker Jury Did
Not Agree.

Special to the Globe.
PINE CITY. Mimi, June 12.-Prepara
tion is being made for the execution of
Brooker, the Pine county murderer.
The fact has recently developed that
the jury which convicted him did not
agree. Jonas E. Erickson, one of the
juiols, has made affidavit that he voted
every ballot for the second degree, and
never at any time changed his ballot,
but was assumed by those on the other
side that so long as he voted that
Brooker killed his victims, it would be
no disagreement, hence the jury went
out and declared the verdict. Mr.. En-
ickson was at the time sick with the
grippe and suffering acute pain, and did
not realize anything different from
what, he was assured by his associates.
viz, that Brooker would not hang. Mr..
Erickson is merchant at Sandstone.
Minn., and a man Of the utmost probity
of character. whose word is beyond
question. and who has suffered the most
acute mental anguish on account of the
sad misunderstanding.
