HARRIS TALKS
TO THE POINT
THE MATTER OF THE UNDATED
PUBLICANS AT EMMA SQUARE.

Emma Square was the scene of an
enthusiastic Republican meeting last
evening. James F. Morgan occupied
the chair and the speakers were Lor-
rim Andrews, w. W. Harris. Major
Camara, Carlos Long and r. w. Quinn
Representative Harris in speaking Of
the matter of the undated designations
said:
What business man i'm this Terri
tory, or any where else for that mat
ter, would place himself in a position
where he was unable to discharge an
employee, until all the stockholders had
been consulted, and yet be held ac-
cOuntable of that business? Would any
Democratic nominee handle the affe'ls
Of any large business, without the au.
thority to remove an inefficient subor-
dinate? Does the Democratic party
contend that the Legislature must be
called each time it is found necessary
to remove subordinate official? If
so the taxpayers of this community
must pay pretty penny for this Dem
Ocratic method.
When the Democratic President of
the United States Grover Cleveland,
assumed office every prominent Repub-
lican ottice-hOlder in the United States
was removed from office and Demo-
Gratis appointed. Shades of jefferson.

In referring to the Democratic charge
that the improvements made under the

New York, Dec. 25-Following a day
of intense strain Nan Patter-
son is in the Tombs ill, and, perhaps,
on the verge of a breakdown, but with
constant attendance.
The former show girl, expecting
acquittal at the hands Of the jury
which has listened to the evidence in
her trial for the murder Of Caesar
Young last June, went into court yes
terday moor to learn that the twelve
men had been unable to reach an
agreement, in fact, had been equally
divided in their judgment as to wheth-
er she held the revolver that ended
Young's life.
jury Equally Divided.
The jury stood six to six-half for
~acquittal and half for conviction. AL
though no official announcement was
made further than this, court house
talk had it that of the six deciding
against Nan Patterson, none was for
conviction of murder in the first de-
gree, that one held out for murder in
the second degree, two for manslaugh-
ter in the first degree and three for
manslaughterrin the second degree.
Immediately the announcement of
the disagreement was made Miss Pat
terson broke into a fit of weeping
which continued even after she was
led from the court room to a retiring
chamber, where physicians were
called and r~estoratives administered.
Then she was taken to the Tombs,
but she again wept and moaned and
became %hysterical, and the efforts of
her aged father, the prison matron
and attendants to quiet her We're
futile.
Many Express Sympathy.
The demonstration in the court
after the announcement of the disa-
greement was somewhat remarkable,
many pressing forward to express
sympathy for the young woman.
Abraham Levy, chief counsel for
Miss Patterson, called on his client in
the Tombs late yesterday afternoon
and remained with her an hour.
THE girl is in a very bad mental
condition." he said, after he had left
her. "She is almost constantly hys-
t~erical, but l don't think she will col
lapse. I am going to make a desper-
ate effort to get bail for her.
Interest now centers in District At
torney Jerome's future action. He has
not said what he will do, but it was
intimated that the way the jury stood
may influence him as to a new trial.
The jury took but one ballot, a C
cording to the foreman, and deyoted
the remainder of the time to discus

was even.

jury when he left the court after the

were called upon to dispense the
throng.
Abraham Levy issued a statement
