THAW JURY CAREFULLY STUD
les EVIDENCE.
TRYING TO REACH VERDICT
No Complaint Yet Made That Jurors
Despair Of Aareement-Ask As
sistance From Ccurt-Not Al
lowed to Have DeImas' Speech
Locked Up for Second Night.

New York, April 12.-Thurty-one
hours Of elaboration and no verdict.
Such was the condition of affairs at
ll:4e last night when the Thaw jury
was ordered locked up for the night.
The fact that they had not been able
to agree after devoting so much
time to the study and discussion OF
the case has given rise to the belief
hat the rial will end in a disagree
meHt.
Although the jury is hopelessly at
sea, Justice Fitzgerald has not given
up hope of having verfict rendered.
AS yet Delling P. Smith, foreman of
the jury. has not complained to the
court that the jurors are unable to
reach decision and until he does so
it is not likely that Justice Fitzger-
aid will discharge them. The fact
that no intimation has been received
from the jury room that the men
are unable to agree has been con-
strued as an indication that a verdict
will eventually be reached.
Jury Asks for Assistance.
The mother, wife and two sisters
and brothers of the defendant were
in the criminal courts building up to
the last minute and when it was
finally announced that the jury was
locked up over night and there was
no longer any prospect of verdict
before today, they returned to their
hotel crestfallen. Twice during the
day the jury flled into the courtroom
and asked the assistance of the
court In an endeavor to bring about
an agreement The jurors want d to
hear again the evidence of numerous
eyewitnesses to the tragedy. They
wanted TO hear what DR.. Hamilton
I'D been allowed to testify to as to
fhaw's condition on the night of the
tragedy and wi at Evelyn Nesbit
Thaw had said as to her husband S
conduct that evening: they wanted
to hear repeated again the converse
lions Thaw had with James Clnch
Smith just before he committed the
homicide; they wanted to hear sew
several portions of Fitzgerald )
charge once more and, finally they
asked permission to take possession
of all the writings of Thaw which had
been introduced into the trial as in
dicative of the defendants state OF
mind when he heard the story or
Evelyn Nesbits alleged wrongs al
the hands of White.
Wanted Part of DeImas' Speech.
All these requests were gladly
granted by the court, but when Fore
man smith, on behalf of the jury,
asked that certain portions of Del
mas summing up address be read,
Fitzgerald called a halt. He admon-
ished the jurors that they were to be
guided only by the evidence and were
not entitled to hear again the clos
ing speeches of the lawyers
There were all sorts of rumors and
guesses yesterday as to how the jury
stood None OF the reports had any
degree of authenticity 1t seemed
evident from the jury's action that
their deliberations we're Ringing
upon the sanity or insanity of the de
PENDANT as shown by the defense.
From the manner in which the jur
ors wished to go over the evidence
in all its details 1t was surmised that
the verdict, if reached at all, woulJ
be predicated entirely upon the evi

Opposing t proposed game law to
limit the number of deer killed to

been circulated in Grand Rapids and

Just think Of It.
Wig, that sum would buy all Of the

rate being Z per cent on onedfth Of

Governor Dcnocn is now going after
the Illinois Central Railroad for its
back taxes for five years.
In tnis connection he should not
overlook the Chicago Junction Railway.
Neither should the Board Of Review.
The Chicago Junction Railway 10

Common stock. $0,6OO.O0O.
Preferred stock, $6500.O00.
Total stock value. $13.O00.O00.

And every dollar Of It 10 taxable

Let us see how the taxes Of the On.

The tax IL Z per cent on one-nfth Of
the valuation.
Onenfth of Sls. 100000 Il $4,000. 900.
and the taxes ON this for one year
amount to $4,000.
For Ave years this reaches the re-
spectacle sum Of 100000.
What do you think Of thati
How many school houses would this
sum build?
How many firemen, school teachers
and policemen would Il payi
How many electric Lights would II
put In service?
Where is the Board Of Revlewi
What is the Board Of Review going
to do about IT.
The North American Transportation

Let the Board Of Review get busy In
