ACoUlTTAL IN POISON GUM CASE
Jury at Fulton Took But 20 Minutes
to Free Man Accused Of Poison
Ing Children.

Fulton, Mo-, Sept. 16.-Jefferson
Woods was acquitted by a jury here
Of attempting to murder the family OF
James McPheeters by poisoned chew
ing gum. The jury arrived at the YER
dict in 20 minutes. When the verdict
was announced Woods seized his baby
and rushed through the rain to a
hotel.
The state failed to prove that
Woods had chewing gum at the time
he passed the McPheeters home. II
was not shown that he bought chew
ing gum or strychnine. The register
OF the National hotel at East St.
Louis showed that Woods was at the
stock yards on one Of the days when
chewing gum was found in the Nc
Pheeters yard. Woods and his wife
who has been with him during the
trial, left Immediately for their home
in Concord.
