Fate In the
Hands Of Jury

With good luck when The Herald
goes to press at A o'clock the jury
in the Mason -Vanderweide case should
be considering its verdict. No one
is looking for an agreement at least
for some time. General comment Is
that conviction is impossible. A ma
jority are OF the opinion that the jury
will not be able TO agree. while few
profess that there is only one thing
for the jury to do-acquit the defend
ant. Should the jury not be able to
agree it is not likely that Judge Pike
will be willing TO discharge the men
inside of AS hours, or before Monday
morning. The case has been on two
weeks and the court will insist on the
jury giving the matter long and seri-
GUS consideration. 1t will be q relief
should the jury be able to announce
an agreement during the evening
hours.
