MODLIN GETS 4 NEW TRIAL.
The Result of the bad Memory of
n TallSntiye and Vicious Juror.

DANVILLE, VA, April 13-(Special)-
Jacob f. Modlln. who murdered his wife
on February 9th. in Neapolis, and who
was found guilty Of murder in the first
degree on Wednesday evening last. gets
a new trial. and all on account Of a juror
swearing that "he had not found,
formed or expressed an opinion" but
who had spoken too much after the kill
ing, and did not seem to remember it
when sworn. Several parties made aft
dayit that they had heard John Il. Lewis,
the juror referred TO, say that MOdlin
ought to be hanged. and that If he was
put on the jury he would hang high"
and on being summoned in court to-day
swore TO their aflidayits. Lewis was then
sworn. and said in effect that he had
merely expressed in idle conversation an
opinion. IL was not a decided opinion,
was not based on any testimony, for he
had not read an account Of the COroner's
inquest, and he was sincere when he
swore before the Court that he had
formed no opinion that would prevent him
from giving the prisoner fair and i'm
partial trial. At the time he expressed
the careless opinion he had not heard the
question Of Modlins sanity raised. He
never knew that question would be raised
until the trial commenced. Judge y. NJ.
Aiken said IL would be very wrong TO
enter up judgment upon the verdict of a
jury on which there was an incompetent
juror. He had not only expressed an opin-
ion. but he seemed vicious and indicated
malice. Not only that, but he acknow-
lodged that when he was examined in
court as TO his competency he was well
aware that he had expressed such opin-
ions. Therefore" said the Judge, 81 set
the verdict aside and grant the prisoner
a new trial"

BERRYVILLE, VA, Ar'ril 13.-(Spe-

William b. Page for forgery, was devoid
OF anything OF particular interest, the
time OF the Court being occupied in the
examination of the various witnesses put
on the stand by the Commonwealth in
rebuttal Of the evidence introduced by the
defence. Messrs. John w. Rice and W.
II. Baker. Of Manchester; j. r. Num-

and teller OF the Bank Of Clarke County;
A. Moore, Jr., and others, testified as
TO Pages good business habits, and that
they had always considered him a sane
man. DR.. II. ID. Kerfoot was introduced

pert on the subject Of paresis. DR.. Ker-
foot. as we'll as the other physicians eX-
amined on the same subject. was sub

the evidence being now in, the general
opinion is that the jury will either acquit

ment Of the case will probably occupy all
the day on Monday.
