and emaciated, weak from hunger
and exposure, Harry Wadron, the
Juror whose escape Sunday blocked
the progress in the second trial of
Dr. b. Clark Hyde. charged with the
murder of Colonel Swope, returned
to his home today
He was later brought into the
court by Mrs. Waldrou, and after a
conference with him, Judge Porter
field announced that he would dis
miss the entire jury on the ground
of Waldrons mental incompetency.
His eyes were shifting and every
movement betrayed shattered nerves.
Waldron described to Judge Por-
terrified, the four days of wandering
through the country in search of
fresh air and freedom from confin-
ing walls and staring eyes
Naldron's narrative to the Judge
! told in the presence of the weeping
wife, all but brought tears to the eyes
of his inquisitor. He told of being
driven almost distracted by the confin-
| ing walls of the court and jury room
and of the longing for fresh country
air. When his feet touched ground,
after sliding down the fire escape, he
said, he knew he had done wrong but
dared not return.
Waldron said he caught a freight
train at Argentine and got off at EN-
poria, where he sacrificed his mus.
tache. Tuesday he returned to Kan
sas City, Kansas and Wednesday to
Kansas City, Missouri, where he wan
dered about in the crowds.
Il longed for ly wife and family,
Judge" he said. Il couldn't bear being
separated from them over Christmas.
Waldron returned home early this
morning and found rest in his wife's
arms. He had aten only two full meals
in four days and slept only a few
hours.
Judge Porterfeld this afternoon dis.
charged the Hyde jury and set the
case for new trial January 2, 1912
He pronounced Waldron insane at
