CAPTAIN TANNERS TRIAL
Ended Suddenly This Morning On Account of Jurors Action

It will Be Taken Up at the Next
 Term of the Court-Two Jurors Took
 It Into Their Heads to Investigate
 the Case Outside the Court House.
 Norwich, Feb 3.-The trial of Cap tain Asahel Tanner of this city on the charge of manslaughter on account of the death of Sarah Goldberg, with whom he is said to have quarreled, came to sudden end to-day. The trial occupied three days in the super for court last week, and the arguments were to have been made to-day before Judge Elmer. When the case was called at 10 o'clock, Judge Brown, counsel for the aged respondent, an- nounced to the court that he had been made aware within the last few days of improper action on the part of one of the jurors, and that he felt com pelled to enter an objection. Judge Brown added that he thought State Attorney Lucas would agree with him in the objection.
 After MT Lucas had remarked that he had been informed of the matter, Judge Elmer said it had come to his knowledge that two jurors, B. W. La throp of Norwich and John M. Lee of Lisbon, had visited the scene of the alleged assault. While the jurors had no wrong intentions in the mat ter, they had gained some knowledge by personal investigation which the other jurors had not received. It was necessary. said the judge, that jurors should abide by the instructions of the court and depend for information up- on the evidence regularly submitted. He therefore felt obliged to dismiss the jury and continue the case until the next term of court.
