The drink habit Is becoming a

Frank Meldrum, whom ne caught com
Ing from his sisters room in the
night time, brought IN q verdict Of no,
guilty last evening.
The scene in the court room when
tie verdict was brought in was most
dramatic. The friends Of the prisoner
aatarteds a demonstration which was al
once stopped by the court officials.
Immediately after being discharged
Sby the court Hickman; returned to his
nome, accompanied by his father,
mother and sister, Ruby, who. in order

for Meldrum's murder, went on the
stand and gave UP the secrets Of her

ment made for the defendant by At.
crney Sherman Robinson. He made
aSpleas for the defendant based upon
theSunRrltten8 law. He contended that
Hickman mad d right to kill Mcldrum

Of Colonel Duncan B. Cooper and his
son Robin, Jointly charged with Sharp
with Staying Carmack, Judge Hnrt
sent the twelve men out for further
deliberatlon and announced that he
would not discharge them until he
was convinced that an agreement
could not be reached.
Verdict Was Looked For.
Judge Hart expected a verdict yes.

morning he consulted with one Of the
jury deputies and when he had con.
