AWAITING THE VERDICT.
The same arrangements that were
ma de yesterday with regard 70 the recep-
ton Of possible verdict prevailed to-
day. Judge Tuthill left the criminal
court building Immediately after the
scene IN the court room He went to MS
aonie on Jackson boulevard and it was
! agreed that he should be notified at once
in case the jury signified that a verdict
mad been reached.
Ex-JUdge Vincent and Attorney Pla-
len wen, 10 their Offices down town and
kept Il touch with telephone communica-
| ion all day. Before he left the building
Judge Tuthill animated that he might
! ieturn late IN the afternoon or this even
| ing and call The jury before him 10 ask
! II there was ely indication or possibiIi-
~ OF a verdict being reached. Judge
| Tutlin also limited that II the reply IN
diceted, even vaguely. that there was
| the slightest chance for a verdict, back
the jury would go and remain the bal
snce OF che week unless the verdict WAS
banded into court IN the meantime.
Deneen today, referring to Juror Har-
ley IN conversation, said:
I'VE did no: have time 60 look I'D his
record as we had done in the cases OF
the other eleven jurors He answered
all queTions fairly enough ana his ap-
pearSnce was good. That is why he was
accepted"
LUETGERT FOOLED.
During all ehe long trial States Attor-
ney Deneen aid not once speak 10 Lue;-
CERT. In fact, never until today did Mr..
Dsneen come in contact with the big
sausage maker. Assistant States Attor-
ney McEwen had handled he prelimi-
nary proceedings In the case. When
Luetgert walked into Judge Tuthins
court room this morning he believed a
verdict had been reached. He also Ee-
lieved that ne had been acquitted With
a smile on his face he walked up 20 ex-
Judge Vincent and Attorney Phalen. and
warmly shook each OF them by the hand
Then turning towards States Attorney
Deneen. ne grasped the small hand OF the
states attorney in his monster palm and
exclaimed:

over. You gave me a terrible tongue
lSsling the last Day but you were fair.

hand OF the gian; German. smiled and
bowed but said nothing
THE JURY HAVE DINNER.
At 1890 Judge Tuthilrs court was
converted into a dining room. Several
tables. which during the trial had been
piled high with Books. bones and papers.
were covered by snowy linen and the
bailiffs buSied themselves setting the
table" Huge baskets Of food and
cans fcoffee were hoisted up in the
freight elevator and brought into the |
court room. Dinner was called a FEW
minutes before l o'clock and the jury. |
escorted by the bailIffs. entered and !
took their places They evidently en-
joyed the meal. judging from their time I
at the table. 1t was some later before |
they retired and were once more locked /
up.
The doors OF the court room will re- /
main tightly closed until Judge TuthIu |
returns TO hear a verdict. The repre- |
sentatIves of the press and all interest I
ed in the trial except the counsel will be 1
excluded from the court.
Evidently the twelve men were a long
way from arriving at a decision. as the /
court attaches fixed themselves Cor an !,
afternoon OF complete repose
ELEVEN TO ONE.

this afternoon that ne based his opinion /

BY Juror Harley and was: sTt eleven /

one for acquittal, can the majority CON-
pei the minority 10 change his vo;s?"
