From all fashionable quarters Of the
city. and from others not as fashion
able. telephone inquiries have poured
into Park Row ever since the jury went
out The question has been the same
almost every time: is there a verdict
in the Thaw trial YETI"
IN most Instances the answer that none
had been returned has been followed by
an exclamation of disappointment at the
other end OF the wire. Many women
have requested that they be called by
telephone as soon as a verdict should be
received. The number asking that favor

temporary establishment Of q special
telephone exchange. Several women
have called from cities IN New Jersey
and there have been long distance mes

with the famous Burdlck trial four years
ago called from Buffalo. and when she

man. Once we were Jurors on case IN
the United States court. where a man
was on trial for robbing a postofdce. The
night the robbery occurred three men
were sleeping on the second floor of a
barn 10 which the robbers went and di-
vided the stolen money. Through holes
in the floor the men plainly saw the
robbers. Several months later one OF
these men was brought back from New
York 10 Dakota to testify in the case.

and the defendant was purposely placed
among the spectators the man unhesi-
tatingly pointed him out as one Of the
three men who divided in the barn the
moneY stolen from the postofflce and
whom he heard talking Of the robbery
at the time
Despite this positive Identification and
the strongest circumstantial evidence
Steele refused to find the defendant
guilty. For three days the eleven other
jurors voted guilty on every ballot
and Steele voted not guilty. All efforts
to make Steele change his vote were
futile. He acted the same way in sew
raj cases IN which I was on the jury
with him"

At the district attorneys Office IL was
stated that the trial had not cost the
county over $4,000 This does not in

tied four jolly hours down the wind of time
and beguiled great men of affairs from the
cares of craftsmanship. business and pro-

wake
For IT is the privilege of this famous or

good nature and kindly intent make jest
and banter of men and matters of state
both great and small, so that none may
take offense And if sometimes, as 1t
