MISS DICKINSON DEPARTS.
Has Returned TO New York and Is Very
Well Satisfied with the Yer.
dict Awarded Her.

Miss Anna Dickinson, Attorneys ].
Aspinwall Hodge, jr., and J. NJ. Fer
guson and Mr. and Mrs. George Acker-
~ left for New York Saturday at noon.
Before leaving Miss Dickinson said:
II am better pleased with that ver-
diet of ga cents under the charge that
Judge Acheson gave to the jury than IL
1t was $4,000 under another charge"
Her attorneys said that in view of
what the judge told the jury their ver-
dict completely eXonerates Miss Dick
inson of any taint of insanity at the
time she was taken to Danville. Her
suits against the New York papers for
libel will now he pressed forward for
trial auc Miss Dickinson is confident
she Will get substantial verdicts in
each of them. Two of the papers that
are defendants in the actions she has
brought have ordered copies of the evil
dence taken at the recent trial in this
city for use in the preparation of their
cases.
1t is the opinion of those who have
made a study of the subject that the
verdict awarded Miss Dickinson does
not carry with it the costs as it would
if the case was governed by the laws
of Pennsylvania. Attorney Horace F..
Hand, one of Miss Dickinson's attor-
neys when seen yesterday said that he
had not as yet had time to make such
a thorough inquiry into the matter as
would enable him to say authoritative
ly that they will or will not follow the
verdict. He was of the opinion, how
ever, that the verdict does not carry
the costs with it and Miss Dickinson
left the city with that opinion in her
mind.
The trial will long be remembered in
legal circles in this city on account of
the many dramatic incidents connected
with it.
