As was generally expected from the evidence, the jury in the Bowman case returned a verdict of acquittal. It is but just to the court as well as to Solic- itors Bradley and Ferguson and the jury to state that the evidence admitted of the conclusion that young Jeffers was armed, and counsel for the defense in- sisted without contradiction that had he known how to use the pistol, or had not some mechanical defect prevented, the first shot could have been fired by Jeffers at Bowman.
 The verdict was rendered at 10:3O o'clock Sunday morning, 'We, the jury, find the defendant not guilty" Each juror was boiled and answered in the af- firmative to the query as to whether it was his verdict as well as the verdict of the other jurymen.
