/ Upon the return OF the jury from dinner
( Il was noticed that Juror Dennee and a

( bag which he used to carry his be-

Night of Anxious Waiting.
It was a night Of anxious waiting in the
/ Criminal Courts building. When the jury
went TO dinner a guard of policemen was
placed at every entrance, and any per-
son VINO got in after that had TO show
cause. Bat there were enough persons Of

/ Francis P. Garvan We're always together
+ IN their Offices or within easy cali About
II o'clock two Of the Thaw lawyers left
the building, on their way TO a nearby
cafe.
Justice Fitzgerald returned to the build
/ ing at 3 o'clock, and went directly to his
| chambers adjoining the courtroom. The
members of the Thaw family spent the
early part Of the evening sitting in the
courtroom, where only the reporters and
la few attaches OF the court were gathered.
/ They then went out and upstairs TO the
pen, where they joined Thaw. The lat

or less successful effort to maintain a
/ cheerful demeanor, though it was said
that he had about given up hope Of being
acquitted.
District Attorney Ignorant.
Once or twice the district attorney
made a trip from his office 10 the court
room. He was invariably surrounded by
a group of anxious inquirers, who thought
/ that his appearance might mean that he
had heard something definite Mr.. Jerome
however. said that he was just as much
in the dark as anybody else. He de-
clared that he had not the slightest idea
what TO expect. and that no result would
surprise him.
All this time the jury remained locked
Nobody went in. and nobody came out,
and nobody knew what was going on in
side. Among those who awaited verdict
/ were many men familiar with the history
/ OF criminal trials in this county. They
pointed out the fact that the Thaw tury
had been out longer than any other jury
in recent years, and none OF them could
recall auv iu-v that had remained out SC
long without being discharged.
AT midnight it was nearly thirty-one
/ hours since the case went TO the jury
IT took only eight hours for the jury to
/ convict MolineUx on his first trial. The
third Kennedy jury was out twenty-five
/ hours and five minutes. the longest of
any of the Kennedy juries, while the sec
ond Nan Patterson jury was out twenty
four hours before they gave It up.
