Many persons in Daviess and adjoin-
ing counties, who mad lost money by
the failure of the Owensboro Savings
Bank and Trust Company. whore bit
terly disappointed at the result of the
trial Of James H. Parish, which ende
at Hawesville last week. Although
no doubt guilty technically, we have
never believed that it was possible to
get twelve men TO say SO in verdict
The next time trial is had the pro-
secution will be further away from a
verdict of guilty, than at this time.
These people richly deserve 10 be
punished, but their guilt is so be-
clouded by transactions which have
always been considered perfectly right
under banking rules, we appre-
hend that it will be difficult to get
the mind of the mind of the average
Juror to drawthenecesasry find dis
tinction between the right and the
wrong.

discharged having reported TO Judge
Kelly that II was impossible to reacn

OwensboTo men.

ceiving deposits when he knew his
bank to be insolvent, and the trial
which was transferred from Daviess
county by Special Judge Kelly.appoint-
ed TO try the case,occupied some time
A large amount of evidence was pre-

The jury had been out but three
hours when ballot was taken, show
ing the members standing eight for
conviction and four for acqulttal. The
alignment did not change during the
entire time the jurors were out and
the foreman reported several times
to Judge Kelly that an agreement
was impossible, but 1t was not until
Tuesday morning that the Judge came
to tine conclusion IT was useless to
keep the panel out any longer.
During tine trial, the court room
was crowded every day, and all the
members of Parrish's family were con
stantly in attendance. The other cases
in connection with the failure of the
bank also will be called at tine March
term, but whether they will be tried
is problematical.

wife. The bride was his cousin, -Prin-
cess Adelaide, of Schleswig- Holstein-

groom is 21 and his bride 10 years Of
age. The ceremony and attendant
festivities were of an elaborate nature
although not so imposing as those
identified with the marriages of the
Crown Prince Frederick Wilhelm with
Princess Cecilia of Mecklenburg and
Prince Eitel Frederick with Princess
Sophie Of Oldenburg. Today was also
the 50th birthday of the empress, who
received many gifts and messages OF
congratulation from the monarchs of
Europe.
Prince August Wilhelm attained his
majority on January 26 last. His
royal father then presented to him
the alternative Of marriage or post

pretty cousin, chose matrimony rath-

appear to be very much in love with
