SIX TO SIX THE
JURY REMAINED
Failed to Agree in the
Murdock Case.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

WILLOWS, May 19.-After twenty
four hours confinement in the jury
room at the Courthouse the twelve men
sworn to try the great Murdock note
case were discharged at o'clock this
afternoon having failed to agree. After
receiving the instructions Of the court
yesterday the jury Immediately re-
paired to the juryroom and upon the
first ballot stood six to six, and re-
mained that way until discharged.
1t was evident the jurymen had a
warm argument after retiring. They
kept the Sheriff busy bringing in ice
water, and when the door was opened
two of the jurymen could be seen in
their shirt sleeves and there was evil
dence that a heated argument was in
progress.
The principals in the case, together
with their attorneys, remained in the
courtroom adjacent the juryroom until
a late hour last night and all day,
eagerly eXpectant that verdict would
be rendered. The jurymen were taken
to breakfast this morning and to din
ner at l o'clock by the Sheriff
An interview by The Call correspond
ent of the jurors gives but little infor-
nation, as those in favor claim those
opposed ignored the evidence entirely
and no amount of questioning will
bring any reasons for their position
other than improbability.
Expert testimony, however, seems to
have cut but little figure in the matter,
yet fortune has been expended by the
defense on that line. Attorney Free
man, for the plaintiff, as soon as the
court discharged the jury, moved the
court to set the case for trial immedi-
ately. The court said he would enter
tain such a motion on a week from
Monday. The work of seven long weeks
seems to have gone for naught, yet the
plaintiffs attorneys seem in good
spirits, claiming victory, and are
ready for another round.

Guilty in obtaining a decree. Mrs Tauzer
left woodland for Sacramento Wednesday
morning. 1t now transpires that by pre-
arrangement she met Joe Parsons at that
place and that together they left for Ne
vada with the intention of being married.
Parsons is six or seven years the junior
of his prospective bride and has been
employed for some time on the Tauzer
farm. 1t is current rumor that he was en-
gagged to a daughter of Mrs. Tauzer, but
that the match was broken off by a sus-
picion of undue intimacy between Par
sons and the mother of his affianced.
Since the decree of divorce was granted
It has been learned that the divorce pro-
ceedings were the result of an agreement
and that a settlement was effected by the

up their efforts to win Mr. Stephens over
to their side. They entertained him at an
elaborate luncheon at the Palace grill
room yesterday noon, and the bill for wine
and viands amounted to husky footing.
Mr.. Stephens was the only one of his
side there. Around him were the agents
of every fruit and car combine repre-
sented in the city. The Earls, the Por-
ters and the Armours were all on hand
to give their chief antagonist the glad
sails to quit the fight There was no hard
feeling. 1t was simply a good-natured
talk between two sides to see how each
other stood and Mr.. Stephens made the
most of his time.
Between courses he got as far as he
could on the inside of the plans of his ad-
versaries and they in their turn attempt
ed to get hold of just what was going on
among the fruit growers. There was not
