son called the jury in the Whiteside

Of nearly $1,000, 900, into court and
asked them If any attempt had been
made to sunduly influence them in
their verdict. The jury has been dead
locked for more than week.
? James Goodson, a farmer. who is
one of the jurors, stated to the court
that on Saturday he went into the
Chattanooga Savings bank and asked
for change for a IS bill. The teller
pushed him $40 in silver. He swore
that when he returned the money the
teller pushed out another pile instead
of taking the surplus SIS.
The C~hattaneoga Savings bank is
one of the three executors Of the
Whiteside estate and the testimony of
its officers was strongly in favor of
sustaining the will.
Judge Allison ~immedfately issued at
taehments for the bank officials. They
will appear in court during the after
noon. at which time the court will be-
gin q rigid examination.
Mrs. Whiteside, whose will is being
contested, was a Christian Scientist

and n daughter, are trying to break
the will on the ground that their
mother was mentally unbalanced.

The Harcourt Comedy Company,
yesterday afternoon, presented Slaves
of Russia at the matinee, and the play
proved fully as popular on it's repeti-
ton as when it was first given. There
was a large audience present. Last
night, the third number of the roper
toire was given before a crowded house.
The play was, perhaps, not quite as
strong in plot as s:Slaves of Russia
but it abounded in dramatic scenes
and was splendidly presented. The
story is of the Franco Prussian war.
and throws side-lights on that terrible
struggle. AS on both other nights, Mr..
Harris and Miss Melvin were beyond
criticism. and they received their usual
tribute of applause. The rest of the
cast acted their parts in style hard
ly less excellent. and there is no criti-
cism coming to them, either. The
specialties were all applauded, but the
boxing match carried off the honors,
and everybody was sorry to see it end,
