New York, Dec. 22-The case of
Nan Patterson, the former show girl
charged with the murder of Caesar
Young, will not go. to the jury for an
other day. This announcement was
made during the afternoon by Justice
Davis, who said that the physical con-
dition Of some Of the jurors was such
that they could not stand night ses-
sion. The entire forenoon session was
taken up by Lawyer Abraham Levy,
leading counsel for Miss Patterson, in
the closing argument for the defense.
Az Assistant District Attornew Rand
will speak three hours in closing for
the prosecution 1t was evident that
the charge to the jury would be de-
ferred until morning.
Upon the opening of court MIR. I'm.
ger, of counsel for the defense, re-
!newed his motion for Justice Davis to
order the acquittal of Miss Patterson
without further proceedings, but the
court denied the motion and directed
counsel to proceed with the argu-
ments. Mr.. Levy then began the clos
Ing address to the Jury for the de-
tense.
Mr.. Levy impressed upon the jury
the fact that Miss Patterson was not
being tried for immortality. No woman
becomes bad because of innate de-
pravity, said he. She becomes bad
because of the incentives of man and
the weakness of her nature. If a
man takes his life because of love
Of her why punish her? If her soul
was as black as the gates of hell she
was nevertheless entitled under the
law to as fair treatment as If she were
the sweetest and purest.
-.. Attorney Grows Dramatic.
"You cannot bring back the dead,
said Mr.. Levy, "but If Caesar Young
were here today think he would
speak few words for this poor girl
he has made his plaything."
He argued that the whole case Of
the prosecution was constructed Of
the most f1imsy material and that this

ARGUES FOR THE DEFENSE
Counsel For Nan Patterson Addresses the
55 Jury In Behalf Of the Prisoner.

If nothing: more, should raise doubt
In the minds of the jurors.
MIR. Levy claimed that the prosecu-
ton had failed utterly in it's attempt
to show that Miss Patterson had any
motive to take Young's life. On the
other hand, 1t had shown that she
had every reason to want him to live.
He supplied her plentifully with
money; ensuring her life OF ease and
af1uance, and she loved him. The
prosecution failed at a vital point in
its case, he declared, in not being able
to prove that Miss Patterson had a
revolver. He maintained that it had
been proved conclusively that she had
no pistol and suggested that the man
who purchased the weapon at Stern 8
pawnshop might have been Young's
brother-in-law, Luce, and that the pis-
toll might have been given Young by
Luce when he saw him just before the
fatal cab ride began.
Quotes From the Bible.
Mr.. Levy read from the Bible the
story of the meeting Of Jesus and
Mary Magdalene, concluding with
Christ's words to the woman: "Go
and sin no more" Then, pointing to
the defendant, he said to the jurors:
do not send her to her doom now
when the entire world is rejoicing.
See, she sits there abandoned by all
except that old man, her aged father.
leave her in your hands, confident
that you will acquit her and restore
her to her devoted old father at a
time when everything proclaims
Peace on earth, good will to men, ]
ask that you allow her to take him
home to the aged wife and mother
who awaits them, and give her a
chance to live new life with them in
her home"
The court was filed during the aft
ernoon when Assistant District Attor
ney Rand began his closing argument
Mr.. Rand began by complimenting Mr.
Levy on his plea for the client, say
ing: If we did not listen to- it with
acquiescence we did at least with
respect"

RAMMEO A BATTLESHIP
The Texas Seriously Damaged by a
 Floating Derrick.

New York, Dec. 21.--Breaking five great cables as if they had been threads, the 100-ton floating derrick Hercules, moored to the side of the new battleship Connecticut, broke adrift in the navy yard basin in Walla- bout bay today and crashed into the stern of the battleship Texas, smash ing several plates and so injuring the warship that she will have to go into dry dock.
 In the basin when q fierce squall swept over it were the Texas, the Illi- nois, the Kentucky, the Tacoma and the. Minneapolis. The Hercules was securely tied to the Connecticut and was landing great srnlor plates on the decks. The strain caused by the heavy wind caused the cables to break, and the derrick started up the bay towards the warships. Two tugs, the Nargeeta and Pentucket, were hastily dispatch ed to catch the fleeing derrick, which was making directly for the Tacoma and the Minneapolis, moored close to- gether. The Pentucket caught the Her cules when almost upon the warshlps and made fast to her. Before the der rick could be controlled it swung around and struck the Texas sQuarely in the stern port.
