JURY TAKES PHILIPS CASE
Twelve Men Debate Over Verdict in
Murder Trial.
HUNG JURY IS NOT IMPOSSIBLE
Reported One or More of body stand
ina out for AcquittaI on Ground
Philips Was Insane when
He shot Hamilton.

The Philips murder case is in the hands
Of the jury. which received It at 3 o'clock
yesterday afternoon and debated without
result until dinner time. Following the
evening meal the jury resumed discussion.
II Is asserted that there is some prospect
OF a hung jury because one or more OF
the twelve men are insisting on %acquittal
on the ground that Philips was insane. 1t
was announced that II no verdict was re-
turned by 10 p. m. the jury would be locked
up for the night.
Closing arguments were made In the
morning by H.. b. Fleharty for Philips and
by County Attorney English.
The closing address in behalf Of the pris-
oner was made by Mr.. Fleharty along the
line which the defense has been conducted
throughout-a straightforward plea Of in
sanity with hardly a hint at the unwritten
law"
Mr.. F1eharty waxed eloquent OCCASION

ips' case, the defense argues. became per-
verted to an insane jealousy.
why" Numbered counsel for the de-
Tense, did the state not dare to put an
expert on the stand to testify as to Philips'
sanity? Why did the state content itself
with the testimony Of men who saw him
only occasionally and who really knew
the man not we'll nor intimately"
State Suggests No Question.
In reply, County Attorney English made
the explanation he has given in other trials
where insanity was a defense-that THE
state did not care to suggest that there
was really a serious question as to the
mental condition Of the defendant.
The attorneys Joined issue on the fact
that Philips fled from arrest after the
shooting.
Did not this show Philips knew well
enough what he was doing?" asked the
state.
by that argument you could depopulate
every asylum" retorted the defense.
Would not hundreds and hundreds of in
sane men, Inmates of asylums, run away If
they could?"
Popular interest in the trial was in
creased, If anything, the. last day, as
judged by the attendance. There is little
speculation as to the outcome. The state
urged the death penalty in both its
speeches. The general impression is that
life imprisonment is a good deal more
likely than a verdict Of hanging.

with the prevailing rates and had no

WOuId Raise Lincoln Rate.
TIL last witness of the afternoon was r.
G. Brown Of Kansas City, general freight
agent of the Chicago, Rock Island and
Pacific. He told of the differentials ex-
listing between Omaha and Lincoln, in fa-
vor of Lincoln, but stated that they had
been made by his predecessor. At the
same time he admitted he thought they
were rather high. He thought that the
Lincoln differential should be made larger,
rather than that the Omaha rate should
be made lower, but that by so doing the
rate would be properly equalized.
His testimony developed the fact that
but two cars Of lumber had been shipped
from Omaha over the Rock Island to the
Bellvile junction, during 1909, and none
at all from Lincoln.
This concluded the lumber case, and Mr..
McVann was given until March 15 to file
his brief. the defendants until March
Is to reply, and Mr.. Mcvann until April

case will be argued orally before the

Spain and the concadat.

The change of ministry at Madrid has created little comment, probably because the events leading up to 1t were of routine political nature, as contrasted to those which a short while ago brought the. now repudiated min lstry into power. Yet the change is of interest. since it brings to the front a statesman hitherto little known to the world at large, and at the same time there is an intimation that his selection forehadows a purpose to secure a modi- fication of the Concordat. The Span lsh Concordat. dating back to 1851, is q. conspicuous survival of relation ship once common between civil gov. ernments and the head of the Roman Catholic church, which elsewhere has been abandoned.
 The Spanish constitution of 1876, however, materially sustains the Con- cordat, requiring the government to support the clergy and the buildings of the church. On their part, many re- Hgious communities maintain schools and industries. Occasional efforts have been made for reduction of the church estimates, and it has even been proposed that the religious orders be regulated by the state. The letter of the Concordat, at least, may not stand in the way of such purposes. But it forebodes great changes in Spain when such matters come within the domain of practical parties.-Providence Jour nal.
