JURORS TIED UP
 IN HOT ROOM Jury Can't Agree But Judge Grace is Holding
 Them.
MAY STAY FOR WEEKS
Two Members Sick But Were Revived Ice Water in Great Demand.

NY For nearly forty hours twelve men, who have the fate of Mamie Riley, on trial for manslaughter in connection with the killing of Former Patrolman John Wilson on Mardi Gras night in this city, in their hands, have been sWeltering and arguing in the jury room at the Jefferson county cont house, For as many hours the men have been constantly calling lon Sher- if Edgar Brewster and Deputy c. c. Green, who have them in charge, for ice water, headache powders, pernis- sion to telephone their wives and sweethearts at intervals, and for oth- CT favors.
 It looks as if the jury will be tied up for several days longer. Judge A. B. Grace served notice 0n them yesterday that they had until August 4 to render a verdict and it is prob able that he will keep them until that time, unless i. develops that theirs is hopeless case and that a decision is impossible.
 All during the day yesterday 1he grand jurors stubbornly fought it out among themselves as to the merits of the case on either side. Various ru- mors were afloat as ID how the jury stood but none of them were authen- tic as no information could be secur- ed from the grand jtEy room. t was stated last night. however, hat the jury stO3d 10 for acquittal and for conviction. The two would lind Mamie Riley guilty are said to have had that opinion since the jury retir- ed. It leaked out yesterday that st one time the jury stood for convic- 4ta)n and , for acquittal. As night appr cached the jurors began to change and at a late hour last night it was reported that the jury mad about agreed, with the exception Of two who are determined to find tor the State. Judge Grace waited on the eiury for some hl)urs last night, finally going to his home. He said he Wodld be down again Monday morning. Ii a verdict is rendered during the night it will be sealed and not opened un- til Monday morning. But the chances for an agreement among the juror Is not likely.
 E At 10 o'clock last night several of the jurors began to call on the de- putty sheriff to take them to a ho-el and permit them to go to bed. But the request was refused. Deputy Sheriff Green finally pH omlsed the jurors that he would take them to the barber. shop at il p. m. and then so a hotel.

DELAWARE
in GOOD FORM
Lost Saturday Game to HaVer-
ford Through Over Con-
fidenCe
TRANSFER DICKINSON
GAME TO WILMINGTON

NEWARK, Del. Oct 1S.-Although
the much cherished honor Of being
the champions Of their class or not
being scored on this season was
wrested from Delaware in the defeat
last Saturday by Harverford College,
nevertheless there is much that is
admirable in the team representing
the Blue and Gold this year.
Thus far the team has been de-
feated but once in the four games
played and that single contest was
the only occasion of the year on
which the teams goal line was cross
ed. The team has played splendid
football and was defeated because
of suddenly developed weak spots
which were not heretofore anticipated
and because they received the worst
end of the referees decisions in every
instance.
II was expected that last Satur-
day would prove to be the day on
which the cadets would regain all
valor ever lost to the Quakers and
the first FIVE minutes of the game
started out along those lines. But
then the unknown quantity developed
and Delaware in the second half,
suddenly fell down miserably and was
wiped off her feet.
The team knows football as we'll
as any gridiron corps in the country.
They have the weight and the knowl-
edge and most of them have the ex-
perience. but It was either over con-
fdence or lack Of unity that brought
about Saturdays disastrous result
at the Main Line College Had Del
aware scored on their first grand
march toward the goal, there is little
doum that the victory would have
been Delaware's, but the referee at
the crucial moment proved too big
a dost for the Blue Hens Chicks 70
swallow. They battled we'll for the
next twenty minutes but there all
went wrong and Haverford's first
score on a fuke seemed to take all
the heart out Of the boys.
There is little doubt that McAvoy
has Installed the fighting spirit into
the team but to keep this intact, re-
quires more energy and training from
the Lafayette star. and it's with thie
In mind that preparation for the
Washington College game next Sat
urday will be started at once.
Monday was a holiday for the
Blue and Gold eleven and they were
given complete rest In order to be
prepared for a weeks training that
will be strenuous and hard to the
finish. All the men seem TO be in
good physical condition except
Loomis, who has a badly cut face
and Captain Taylor is still suffering
with bruised head. Another days
rest. however, will find these men in
condition and the team should be In
grand shape for the seasons last
game in Newark next Saturday when
the Washington College eleven tries
conclusions with the State College
aggregation. II has been decided to
play the Dickinson College game in
Wilmington instead of in Newark on
Nov. 25th.

Athletics Long EndSaney Wins His FghOdds Ends Spon
STANLEY WINS
SEMI WTND-UP
Substitutes for Baker Before
Philadelphia Club and
Scores KnoCk Downs

Steve Stanley's manager announced
today that it was Stanley who fought
the semi-windup at the American
Athletic Club on Monday evening de-
feating Johnny Phillips. Harry Baker
was booked to fight the semi-wind up
but on account Of a broken hand
which he suffered in training the day
before the fight he was compelled to
cancel his fight Stanley who was to
have fought Lefty Gallagher in the
third bout of the evening took Bakers
place (who was in the pink of condi-
tion until he met with the broken
hand) and fought one of the most
sensational fights that ever graced the
Philadelphia prize ring. He put up
such a fast and clever fight against
Phillips that the fight fans crowded
to his dressing rooms after the fight
and congratulated him on his great
showing against Phillips, who had
never been defeated.
Stanley knocked Phillips down
three times during the fight and would
have put him to sleep had not Phil
lips held on. A well-known local
boxer took Stanley's place and fought
Lefty Gallagher in one Of the earlier
bouts, making good also. That the
local fight fans may understand the
situation thoroughly, it was Steve
Stanley who fought in Bakers place
with Phillips in the semi-windup and
local boxer fought Gallagher. The
Imperial Club is proud of Stanley
and his manager. Turmen G. Cole, for
the honor they have brought to the
club.

PHILADELPHIA. Oct. 1S-The vic
tory of the Athletics over the Giants
in the second game of the worlds
series by a score of 3 to 1 was de-
cisive, though won by narrow
margin. It was a clean cut victory
for the local team, whose members
outfielded the Giants, and, although
they did not outhit them numerically.
what little punching of hits they did
was with deadly effect. The Athletics
opened with a run in the first inning,
and the Giants were at the mercy Of
the cool and admirably assorted pitch
ing of Macks veteran southpaw, Ed
die Plank. and reached first only at
the rarest intervals. II was a more
interesting game than the first game
played in New York, but contained not
much more action than the battle on
the Polo grounds. As in the first
contest, the team that made the fewer
hits but committed no errors won.
Bakers hit in the sixth inning over
right field fence for a home run, send
ing Collins in ahead of him, was the
feature of the game. The drive was
one of the longest ever made at Shibe
Park. The ball went high over the
heads of the men and boys perched on
the top of right field fence. Disappear
