RARIGK JURY CANNOT AGREE.
1t Stands Ten for Conviction and Two
for Acuuittal

1t Stands Ten for Conviction and Two
for Acquittal.
The jury in the case of F. G. Rar-
rick. charged by John G. Hughes with
aggravated assault and battery, will
asked to be discharged when court
opens today. 1t has been unable to
agree upon q verdict. AT 10 o'clock
last night the last ballot for the night
was taken, and no verdict could be
reached. Tbereupon the jurors retired
for the night,
The way they stand is 10 for convic-
tion and for acquittal. Five Of the
jurors are willing to acquit R1rick of
the first count in the indictment, but
three Of these want to punish him for
the second count. The two stubborn
jurors have signified their sentiment
that they will hold out until eternity
rolls around.
The case was given to the jury at
$50 Saturday morning aud at 3 in the
afternoon IL reported to the court that
II could not agree and asked to be dis
charged. The request was refused.
Saturday morning verdict of not
guilty was taken in the case OF Charles
L. Tobey charged with larceny and re-
csiving. Tue case was tried twice and
each time resulted in a disagreement mt
CT the jury. 1t was the opinion of the
diStrict attorney, therefore. that it
would be impossible to secure a con.
vction and he consented to allow the
verdict of not guilty to be taken.
