THE JURY DISAGREED.
Judge Hart Told Them They Were
Judges of Fact, Not of Law.

The jury in the case of n. Cippa,
charged with rape, came into court
yesterday morning and announced that
it stood nine to three, as on the even
ing before, and that there was no
chance Of its coming to an agreement.
Judge Hart said that if such We're the
case. nothing remained but to discharge
the july.
He took occasion, however, to say
that lie would like to talk to them a
moment When they came into court
the DAY before, they asked him what
was tine minimum punishment if the
prisoner We're found guilty 1t is a
rule Of law that in all cases the jury
is the supreme judge of the facts. The
court attends to the law part and
when the jury assumes to predicate a
verdict on a law Of its own it is go
ing beyond its rights.
If it has reasonable grounds to doubt
the guilt of the defendant it is it's
duty 10 acQuit him, and if it believes
he is guilty. it is its duty so to find. 1t
has rothing to do except to decide
whether the evidence warrants YER
dict of guilty. If any juror in this case
had been guilty of basing his verdict
on the length OF term of imprisonment,
he had been guilty Of a most fragrant
violation of his oath. If jurors have
not sufficient confidence in the courts
and the Legislatures to allow them to
fix the punishment for crimes. it is time
! to abolish the courts and do away with
retributive justice He did not accuse
the jury of taking into consideration
the term of punishment but would say
that if they did SO they had done de-
cidedly wrong.
He would have found no fault if de-
fendant had been found not guilty, and
there was no evidence of dishonesty
| in the verdict and made these remarks
for the benefit of future iuries, hoping
they would benefit thereby. He then
dismissed the jury.

stood nine to three
