GREECE INVOLVES
 SEVEN POWERS
Especial from United Press.)

Especial from United Press)
 London. Nov. 24--The Greek situa- tion to-day threatens to involve seven powers of much more importance than Greece in trouble. It developed to- day. despite official denials. that the English. French. Russian and Italian governments recently gave the Greek military league. which exercises a virtual tutorship over the Hellenic kingdom. to understand that they will interfere to protect King George if the league threatens to overthrow his dynasty.
 This action evidently offended Ger many and Austria for an intimation was Immediately sent out from Vienna and Berlin to the four powers that no interference in Greece must be under taken without consultation with Kais- CTS Wilhelm and Franz Joseph. This too Is denied bus it is certain that there has been a rapid exchange of notes between the six capitols ever since. There is the highest authority for the statement that the dispute has grown more and more acrimonious and that no agreement Is in sight Germany and Austria are jealous of the strength of the other powers in Greece and they do not propose to step out of the situation The pledges of support given King George do not mean that he may not abdicate. as he has repeatedly threatened to do. but does not intend to have him expelled in disgrace by the league.

 For quite three quarters of an hour he waited without hearing any other indications of life than mufied sounds. Occasionally he shifted his position. but cautiously. as though he feared to awaken some one.

Hung Jury.

A large crowd assembled at the
court house last Thursday when the
case of the Commonwealth against
William Sparks for the killing of Joe
Jake Collins at his home on the Union
pike, last June, came up for trial.
The greater portion of Thursday and
Friday was consumed in examining
witnesses. Friday afternoon Judge
Benton read his instructions to the
jury and the case was turned over TO
the attorneys for argument. Each
side was granted three hours for ar
guments by the court. The defend
ant was ably represented by Hons.
A. F. Byrd and Davis, of Winchester,
and Judge H. C. Rice. of Richmond.
Commonwealth Attorney Crutcher
was assisted by Hons. w. B. Smith
and w. S. Moberley, of this city. At
$3.50 o'clock court adjourned for
one hour. People fastened home to
supper and then back to the court
house. Long before court resumed
proceedings the court room was pack
ed to overlooking. When the Court
raped for order Attorney Byrd arose
and resumed his argument for the de-
Tense. When he began speaking a
death-like stiffness swept over the
assembly and every ear strained lest
1t lose one word that fell from the
lips of the speaker eloquent. His
voice was clear and resonant. pene-
trating every corner, and for nearly
two hours he held the large assembly
spellbound. He exceeded his allotie ed
time some fifteen or twenty minutes.
He made matchless speech and was
followed by Hon B. A. Crutcher, who
was no less eloquent in the closing
argument for the Commonwealth. 1t
was nearly ten O'Clock before the ar
guments were concluded. At the
conclusion of the arguments the court
room was ordered cleared. Judge
Benton then instructed the jury and
released it from duty till morning.
The following morning at 8 o'clock
the jury again took up the case. At
ter several hours elaboration the jury
failed to agree and so reported. Re-
alizing that it would lie impossible
for the jury to reach a conclusion and
render verdict as per instructions,
the Court thanked the members and
dismissed them. There was a great
diversion of opinion. Some of the
iurymen held out for life sentence,
others from one to five years, and
some for acquittal.

The Richmond climax. (Richmond, Ky.) 1897-1914, 1909-10-27

One of the great jokes of American
Jurisprudence is the presumption Of
innocence theory. The law holds in
criminal cases that the juror must
carry with him throughout the trial,
and to the jury room the ''presump-
ton of innocence" as it refers to the
accused. Thereby the law makes
preiurers of the majority Of jurors.
Lawyers generally admit this and
proceed upon the truth of this idea
in their conduct Of trial. Nobody
presumes anybody innocent if the in
itial circumstances indicate his guilt.
To make man swear that he will
presume throughout trial the in
nocence OF the accused is not only TO
make the juror felon but to make
alaughing-stock Of law.
Nobody can carry throughout a
trial the presumption Of mans in
nocence If early testimony indicates
his guilt. The whole idea is absurd.
Il Is built much upon the same theory
as that Of the sacredness and super
humanity OF Judges. A judge in his
private life may be, and sometimes
IS, a person of very ordinary in
stfncts-a common politician, let us
saw, who is '.wise" to slI the tricks Of
pslit,os and willing for his iieutsn.
