gan their deliberations. At the time the
case went to the jury il was the general
opinion of persons who had heard the trial
that they would not be out more than q few
hours, but the night passed and no verdict
was reached: the entire day Wednesday
and the night brought them no nearer u
verdict. and at half-past 8 O'Clock yester-
day morning, having as yet reached no
verdict. Judge Cox had them brought into
the oourt room and discharged. At the
time they We're called into the court room

conviction. The court Immediately sus-
tanned q motion TO admit the defendant to
bail, and fixed the amount of the bond
at g., 500, which was given forthwith, Henry
Mauer, the Indiana-evenue grocer. and

cepted as srreties. The bond was signed
and approved. and Lon Mcclure was free
