JONES DELIVERS AN
 ELOQUENT ADDRESS
Gives His Opinion of Jury for
 Peonage Cases
HAS FAILED IN ITS DUTY
Judge Says Mstrial Was Due to No Other Cause Than That Defendant Was a White Mand the
 Victim Black.

Montgomery, July 13.-(Special.)-A
 mstrial was the only decision possible
 for the jury in the Turner peonage case.
 The case had been in the hands of the
 jury four days, but they never came any
 nearer verdict than upon the first poll,
 notwithstanding that they were twice
 charged by Judge Jones that Turner was guilty. The judge finally agreed to dis
 charge the jury at o'clock but before
 doing so he told them his apinion of the
 majority who would not vote for a con
 viction. He concluded a strong lecture in
 this language:
 Those of you who have refused to follow the instructions of the court have,
 in effect, said to everybody in and out of Alabama that in a plain case where there is no dispute as to the law or the facts and no room for reasonable doubt , jury in one of the most intelligent dis tricts in this state has divided and de- clined to enforce the law for no other reason than the one that the defendant : was a white man and the victim of the law he violated is a negro boy.
 'It is useless to say more. The court can only say to those of you who tried to follow the law as the court gave it to you that you have the thanks of the court for trying to do your duty. The court will only say now to those who did to the con-
 trary that God forbid that the time will ever come in this country when you are
 helpless and distressed and have been , made the victim of oppression, when you will be denied that protection of the law to which you appeal, and to which every law-abiding human being is entitled among all civilized people Gentlemen. you are discharged for the term"
