STEVENS JURY DISAGREED.
II Stood Eight for Conviction and Four
for Acquttal

After forty-eight and one-half hours
spent in deliberation, the jury in the
Stevens case reported that they could not
agree upon a verdict and at IL 40 Sunday
morning they were discharged by Judge
Wilson.
on the final ballot the vote was eight
FOR conviction and four for acquitted,
but this seemed as near as they could
get To an agreement. 1t is probable that
the jury would not have been dismissed
Sunday morning had it not been that
Henry Johnson. one of their number. was
all and the confinement in the jury room
was beginning TO tell on him.
IT is said that the first ballot taken was
six to six, and later seven to five. then
eight to four which way it remained until
the jury was called in.
Owing to the expense attached to the
trial. il Will probably never be tried again.
although the state at this last trial had
a much stronger case than at the pre-
ceding one.
After the jury was discharged Judge
Wilson gave permission 10 the defendant
S. NJ Stevens. TO return to his family
and ii is probable he viii not have to
appear again in the district court in an
swer TO this charge. as il Will likely be
dismissed before the October term of
court. at which it would he called for
trial
The names of the jurors who heard the
evidence of the last trial. and who were
discharged Sunday. are: F. r. Smith.
