New York, Apr. 1.-THE Thaw
jury reported failure TO agree upon
a verdict at 1870 o'clock this after
noon, having been out forty-seven
hours and eight minutes, and Justice
Fitzgerald discharged them.
After Foreman Smith announced
the result Thaw turned pale, and
when he was remanded to prison IN
der formal suggestion by District
Attorney Jerome, his head hung de
jectedly. His wife sat beside him as
the jury reported and all other mem
bers OF the family were in court,
showing little emotion.
District Attorney Jerome believes
that new trial will not be reached
before autumn, remarking that sew
eral others are awainting trial for
murder
Juror Pink confirmed report that
the jury was divided, seven being for
murder in the first degree and five
for acquittaL He said the delibera-
tons OF the jury were .ansieable and
that there was no III feeling, neither
was harsh language used
District Attorney Jerome is re,
ported to have said he would not OPP
pose a motion for change of venue
for Thaw's second trial, and in event
a change is granted to some other
Jurisdiction the trial might be reached
before fall.
The Balloting.
Eight ballots were taken. The first
was eight for murder in the first de-
gree and four acquittal on the ground
of insanity. One of the eight later
Joined the other four.
In a spirit of compromise the seven
first degree jurors gave one ballot for
manslaughter in the first degree, bat
proving ineffective, with the others re-
turned to the original position.
The subject of wronged womanhood
was but slightly considered. Whether
or not Thaw was insane ut the moment
he shot White received paramount
consideration.
Many stormy arguments occurred,
according to Juror Harvey. and
charges OF breaking faith with the or
ders of the court were made, but ut
no time did Foreman Smith lose con-
tIol of the situation.

SALES At AUTO SHOW.
Business Increases as Exhibition
Dra,cS to an End.

The automobile show at the Grand Central Pal
ace will come end tonight. 1t was Army
and Navy Day yesterday and large number of
officers from both departments mingled i'm the big
crowd that in attendance. The exhibitors said
that they had done the best days business since
the show began.
Statistics of the show interesting. In all two
hundred and twenty cars are on exhibition. of
which all but eight are of gasolene power There
are three steam and five eectrics. That there
is a demand for fast machines is shown from the
that the fOur-cylinder cars are in the major
ity there being no less than one hundred and forty
of this type. There twenty-six six-cylnder
cars eight-cylinder machines and of the others
thirty-five of two-Cynder. six of three-cylin
der and only three Of the One-cylinder type
The only convertible car that may be
changed from runabOut 10 n touring car in three
mlnutes-is shown by the Wayne Automobile Com
pany. This means that the machine has sliding
gear in which it is impossible to buckle or shift
two gears at oncc-the only in which the gear
IS certainly locked until the gear is shifted
the neutral out of whatever position 1t happens
to be I'm. This is accomplished by means of little
steel pin in the of the sliding gear which
automatically slides into the sliding gear shafts on
either side the gears shifted. that the
that is shifted is held fast where 1t Is shifted
and the other gears are prevented from moving
This feature prevents the breaking and bucklins
of the gears and the consequent damage TO the
whole transmission. II is feature almost as
prominent the placing OF the transmission ON
the rear axle.

not feel that the regulars had made the most
Of their opportunities. but he praised the runs
of Tad Jones and Coy, who were back in the
scrimmage.
Clinton RorabacI, the former centre. joined
the coaching squad and took COoney and Cong
don in hand. Rorabacks presence led Cooney
to cut loose and tear through the scrub line
seize a fumbed ball and rush thirty yards for
touchdown. Congdon also played in improved
form. He is fast absorbing the technique of the
game at centre, thanks to Flanders, who was
largely responsible for his promotion from the
scrub. Coy and Tad Jones were decidedly bene-
fitted by their lay-Off Coy played for the first
time since the VilIanova game. and his short
rest in the country put him in tiptop condition.
one of the features of the play to-day was
fake kick run which resulted in a 30 0-yard gain
and touchdown. Butterworth gave close atten-
tion to Fred Murphy. right halfback, who kept
his feet we'll and was swept along for a 20-yard
gain. taking the ball TO the scrubs 1-yard line,
where Foster, who played in the second half in

The team was coached in the use OF the for
ward pass, and Coy and Howard Jones worked
two for substantial gains. Jones ran thirty five
yards for a touchdown on one.
