cruiser Nichteroy, arrived here this morn

doctor states that he was present at the
inauguration of President Moraez and was
guest at the reception given by the presi-

him as being tall spare man of digni-
fed and serious expression and broad
views. He has every reason to believe
that his administration will be peace
full and prosperous. There appears to be
no indication of revolt. The president
is quite popular with the whole people.
He has already granted an amnesty to

THE JONES MURDER CASE.
Ihe Jury Failed to Agree-Judge Clint
Roasted the Jury.

lhe Jury Failed to Agree-Judge Clint
Roasted the Jury.
Dallas, Tex, Dec. 24.--(Special.)-At
ii A. m. today the jury in the DIR. Jones
case, which has been out since last
Thursday at 4:30 p. m, came into court
and said they could not agree Judge
Clint asked if there was any probability
OF their reaching n verdict by longer de-
liberation. The reply was that there was
not, nor even a possibility. Judge Clint
then stated that he had in his hand n.
note from n member of the Jury TO the
effect that directly after they retired one
OF their number boldly announced that he
already had his mind made up and the
rest of them could weigh the testimony,
reflect on the arguments and refer to the
charge to their hearts content, but as
Tor him, he would never convict Dir. Jones.
for the reason that he knew Captain Veal
and knew him to be n d-dscoundrel and
hypocrite and deserved to be killed; he
also knew some of the prosecuting wit
nesses TO be of the same stripe. Judge
Clint added that the purity of the Jury box
ought to be maintained at any cost; that
II the contents of the note were true the
juror in question was guilty of perjury
and had perhaps been bribed, and at
any rate was in contempt, but that he
would suspend action until the grand
jury could make an investigation and for
that purpose he ordered the jury to ap-
pear before the grand jury next Thursday
morning and answer such questions as
that body shall see proper to propound.
In the meantime the jury was discharged.
Judge Clint refused to give the jurors
name.
