Judge Somers hesitated for a moment and then said: "Mr. Glib
son would you mind taking a pledge for three years to abstain from
indulging in alcoholic iquorsf'
81 would not, replied Gibson after stating that he had not so
INDUCED for six months past.
Thereupon, standing with right hand raised, Gibson soemnly took
the following pledge: q do swear in the presence of almighty God
that l will abstain from all intoxicating liquors for a period of three
years He repeated the words in periods after Judge Somers and
then left the court room a free man.
Before taking his departure, however, he listened to a brief state
trouble was doubtless the is of strong drink and that he could be a
useful member of society if caretaking was INDUCED in rather than
Iintoxicants.
The jury from the first to the last ballot stood 7 to 5 for acquttal.
There were no degrees voted on; it was a matter OF guilty or not
guilty and no man changed a whit in his opinion. In fact, feeling ran
quite high in the jury room at time and the longer the argument con-
tinued the more set became the convictions.
The jury stood as follows: For acquital-A. j. Rigali, George
B. Church, William Condor, W. j. Prindle, John G. Martin, Charles
Magee and Frank j. Cosgrove; for conviction-L. S. Campbell, c. L.
Hagan, George w. Van Meter, Frank j. Pyne and I. E. Curran.
George B. Church was foreman of the deciding body.
The jury disagreed in the matter of who precipitated the fatal
controversy. Five members were convinced that Gibson was re
sponsfble for the trouble, while seven declared that Maunsel's at
tack was uncaled for.
The closing arguments yesterday by Col. I. V. Eddy, for the de-
tense, and District Attorney Tilden, the state, were brilliant efforts
and both attorneys were warmly congratulated at the conclusion OF
their forensic efforts. Col Eddy, though called to the defense on the
eve of the trial, conducted it most ably.
Juror Van Meter, on leaving the courthouse, upon the discharge
of the Jury, received news from his wife that her brother had passed
away last night at Penryn, Placer county, California. Mr.. and MRS.
Van Meter will leave for that place tomorrow morning.

After celebrating eighteen hours the jury in the Gibson murder
trial announced before Judge Somers at noon today that an agreement
was impossible and, in turn, after each Of the twelve men had in
dividually declared that a unanimous verdict could not be reached
the jury was discharged. Following the dismissal of the jurors, Dis
trct Attorney Tilden moved the court that, in view of the fact that
the defendant had been tried three times for the murder of Richard
Maunsell, the charge be dismissed, and it was SO ordered.
The district attorneys words were: ''The prosecution feels that
it has done it's full duty in this trial. The defendant has been placed
on trial three different times; first trial resulted in a disagreement
the second in a conviction from which a new trial was granted out of
which there has come this second disagreement. l do not believe that

therefore l move that the charge against this defendant be dis
