it too severe on the ground that although
Graves may have been the guilty man, yet
under the evidence q verdict in the first de-

degree was not expected.
The condition of Mrs. Graves is so serious
that Judge Furman telegraphod for her
brother.
When the grand jury adjourned late this
evening it was learned that nothing had
been done by thom in rega'd to indicting
Col. Ballou. DR.. Graves caused surprise
to night when he said that Col. Ballou had
