THE JURY IS STILL OUT,
No Verdict in the Strikers
Case Has Been Reached
as Yet.
SAID TO STAND TEN TO TWO.
They Will Be Locked Up Again To-
Night if a Decision Is not
Arrived At.

The jury in the case of Cassidy and
Mayne, the strikers charged with conspir-
acy and obstructing the United States
mail, is still out During all yesterday they
did not give the slightest sign, and al
though Judge Morrow was in his chambers
from 10 A. N. to 5 P. NJ, there was no de-
mand made upon him for an explanation
of the law in the case.
The jurors spent the night in the United
States District Court room. Ballot after
ballot was taken but no result was reached.
Finally tired out nature asserted itself and
the Jurors, one after another, sought out
the softest spot on the floor and went to
sleep. At7AM. the deputy marshal let
them out and all had good wash. An
hour later they went to breakfast, and on
their return they took up the weary task OF
trying to arrive at an understanding. At
2P. NJ. they went to lunch and by 3 O'Clock
they were again hard at work taking bal
lots, At o'clock Judge Morrow went
home, after instructing the Marshal to
take the Jurors out to dinner and then lock
them up for the night.
On Tuesday night the jury was said to
stand eight to four, and yesterday after
noon rumor had it that it was ten to two.
were for conviction, but the strikers and
their attorney ridiculed the idea. The
deep interest taken in the case is shown by
the crowds of people who throng the CORR
doris around the court. The defendants
friends are out in force, and as hour after
hour passed and nothing was heard from
the jury their hope kept growing, until
now they are confident it will be dis
agreement or an acquittal-
The trial of these strikers has been
unique IN many respects. The defendants
took oath that they had not the funds
to secure the witnesses necessary for
a fair presentation of their case. Fol
lowing the usual custom Judge Morrow
therefore ordered the witnesses summoned
at the expense of the United States.
During the trial 81 witnesses on behalf
of the Government and 127 on behalf of the
strikers were examined. These pa men
came from Sacramento, Oakland, Palo
Alto, San Jose, Dunsmuir, Stockton,
Vallejo, Red Bluff and Truckee. All of
them were paid mileage and 81 day until
they were placed on the witness-stand.
The trial began on Novem Der II, 1894,
and the jurors sat through Is days of testi-
mony, speeches and charge. The testi-
mony covers 5000 pages of typewriter
foolscap, the speeches lasted three days,
and the charge covered 274 pages of type
written foolscap and occupied two days in
its delivery. The jury has now been out
two days, and the chances are that they
viii be kept out two more, or until YER
dict is reached. The trial has cost the
Government the enormous sum of $4,000,
so it is not at all likely Judge Morrow will
dismiss the jurors until all possible means
OF arriving at verdict are exhausted.

ANNIE DALY'S ESCAPADE,
She Fled to Stockton With a
Soldier From the
PreSidio.
She Says She Is
Wife.

Is Annie DAILY, 15-year-old girl at the
Magdalen Asylum, wife? That is the
question that is worrying Secretary Nc
Comb of the Humane Society.
Annie Daily is the daughter of laborer
who lives with his family at Harbor View,
near the Presidio. She is an attractive
girl, well developed and bright. She was
accustomed to visit the Preside frequently,
and one day met soldier named st. Clair.
The couple became quite friendly, and
whenever st. Clair was off duty he spent
his time in her company.
Several weeks ago ST. Clair announced
that he was tired of barracks life and sug-
gested that a matrimonial existence in a
hut would be far more preferable to him.
He suggested marriage to Annie, who
readily consented. st. Clair went to the
City Hall and secured marriage license,
saying that Annie was of legal age.
st. Clair then made up his mind to de-
sert. He had no money, but true love
laughs at such obstacles. In the house of
Annie's parents was little box containing
$50. On the night of their elopement
Annie took the $50 and the couple went to
Stockton on the following day.
At the expiration of two days the Days
informed the police of Annie's departure,
and in a few days it was ascertained that
the couple had fed to Stockton. An Off
Ger was sent thither, but when he arrived
Annie's supposed husband had fed, leav-
ing her penniless. She was willing to go
home, but declared that she was married
to ST. Clair. She did not know who per-
formed the ceremony, but that it was per-
formed she was certain.
The Days were anxious to place the girl
in safe place, and she was accordingly
sent to the Magdalen Asylum. The officers
are now searching for st. Clair, who is
wanted as deserser from the army. 1t is
certain that he secured license to marry
the girl, but thus far the license has not

RYER COMPROMISES.
ALI Contests OF the Will Except That of
Christopher Out of the
Way.

Through the sale of the property at the
corner of Stockton and Market streets to
James Phelan, the executors of the estate
of the late Washington M. Ryer have been
enabled to carry out the terms of compro-
mise agreed upon with Fletcher f. Ryer,
the son, and Mary Fletcher Ryer, the
divorced wife OF the deceased, both of
whom had contested the will.
Mrs. Ryer receives $4,000 and Fletcher
S35, 600. The only other case pending that
prevents the final distribution of the estate
in accordance with the terms of the will is
the suit of Christopher Ryer, who claimed
to be natural son. This was. decided in
the Superior Court against the plaintiff,
and is now on appeal to the Supreme
Court.

FIFTY CARAT DIAMOND.

fortunately Mns Ruined.

Shipments of plumbago are frequently
received at Newburg from the island Of
Ceylon, in which traces of gold are
found. Mr.. Tillinghast, the superintend-
ent, said the other day that he had
found diamond, about 90 carats in
weight, which had been in a pile of
plunbago
Unfortunately the diamond was not
found until after it had gone through a
furnace which was heated to 1000 de-
grees Tho precious stone had been
cracked in pieces and filed with flaws
by the intense heat. The largest piece is
the size of hazelnut and so badly
cracked as to be- of use only as chips

which the stone was found is being ex-
amined before it goes into the furnace.

Nj. Arthur 81. Howell Field Nat.

Mr. Arthur II. Howell, Field Nat,
uraiist for the United States De
partment of Agriculture land, b.
way Of parenthesis, very genial
gent.eman), has been spending d
couple of weeks at Sawtooth, col.
lecting various specimens of small
mammals and birds. He came
chiefly to secure duplicates Of the
type THAT is, the original specimen
from which the species was de-
scribed) Of little shrew-sorex
dobsoni, the scientists call him
about four inches long, of which an
inch and a half is tail! The origi-
nal specimen was secured at Alturas
lake, several years ago, by Dr.. c..
Hart Merriam, Chief Of the Division
Of ORTHODOXY and Mammalogy,
but since then no others have been
taken anywhere in the country.
Mr.. Howell was fortunate in secur-
ing six additional specimens of this
rare little animal, besides two other
species Of shrews, six species of
mice and numerous other small
mammals and birds, about sixty
specimens in all, representing TWEEN
ty species. They are caught in
small tin traps set along the creeks
and through the woods, under logs
and roots Of trees and at their bur-
rows. The specimens will be de.
posted in the National Museum at
Washington, and will prove valu-
able addition to their already large
collection.
