given their verdict.
Il want to thank you he said SIM
ply, INC shook each one by the hand.
Immediately afterward court ad-
~journed and Charles Radford left the

thing he did was to go to the hotel
where his brother was sleeping in Or

Afterward he sent a telegram to

formation on the case all last even

At a late hour last night the Jury
in the Radford murder case was still
out and it was believed by Sheriff
Nelson that they were hopelessly dis
agreed.
The closing arguments Of D. j. Con-
way, one of the attorneys for the de-
Tense, and C. P. Bates, who is assist
ing States Attorney Danforth in the
prosecution, were much longer than
was anticipated, and the case did not
go to the jury until 3 o'clock in the
afternoon.
Judge Jones in his charge to the
jury was absolutely impartial and the
question of the guilt or innocence of
Radford was left entirely to the jury
to decide.
Both attorneys made strong pleas to
the jury.
D. J. Conway urged that the boy
had killed George Hurd in self-de-
Tense. had shot him because he be-
lieved his life and that of his broth

sympathy with the accused, his plea
brought tears to the eyes of many.

tation Of the facts to the jury that did
much to alter the opinion of several of
the Jurors.

liberty" Long live the United States
Long Live Mexico" Long live Es-

The demonstrations began last night
following denunciatory speeches in

pie was madly excited by report of a
battle won by Vasquez, commanding
the Zelayan forces around Rama, and
that Vasquez had massacred many
revolutionists. 1t was also rumored
that Vasquez had violated an armis-

they circulated. AS the Mexican min
lister was the %guarantor of the armis-
tice, it is stated he will ask for his
passports.
The whole country is in a ferment.
Zelaya is everywhere denounced, but
he is master of the situation, and the
people fear wholesale execution OF
political prisoners. Prisons are full OF
