1t may be pointed out that seven

JURY GIVES SlDNA
ALLEN FIVE YEARS
After Hours of Deliberation, Re-
garded by the Public as Almost
Certain Indication of Disagree
ment, Decision Is Reached
This Afternoon.

WHTHEYILLE, va Special.
After being cut since Tuesday
the jury in the case of Sidna
Allen, charged with participation
IN the HtlisvflIe shooting, this az
teruoon returned a verdict OF VOL
untary manslaughter, and fixed
his punishment at five years In the
penkentiary.
On the first ballot the Jury
voted nine for acQuittal and three
for murder I'm the second degree.
The jury called on the court
several times for instructions be-
fore reaching verdict. In each
case the Instructions were the
same as those given in the other
Alien cases, including those i'm
which the verdict was fixed at
death I'm the electric chair.
SENT BEFORE VERDICT IN.
WHTHEVILLE, VA SpeciaI.
At O'Clock this morning the Jury
in case of the Commonwealth
against Sidna Allen for the muir
der OF w. Nj. Foster, Sycre sent
TO their room TO further consider
their verdict.
Before retiring to their room
the Judge read 10 them the same
charge which he gave TO inries
i'm the former Allen trials, after a
disagreement, which i'm those
cases resulted i'm bringing the
jury to an agreement.
On yesterday afternoon and last
evening the jury were i'm retire
ment for five hours. and up TO
noon today had been out three
hours, making I'm all eight hours.
The impression ut noon was that
an agreement. was hopeless.
On last evening one of the Jury
asked an explanation of instruc-
ton No. for the Commonwealth.
which bears entirely ON the ques-
ton of intentionally aiding and
aDcttfng the party or parties who
killed Commemorative Attorney
w. NJ. Foster. As there Is no
evidence showing that the accused
himself fired the fatal shot or
shots, this branch OF the jury's
inquiry IS eliminated. From the
explanation asked as TO the prin-
ciple of the first and second de-
gree, IL may be assumed that the
evidence has failed TO convince
the jury of conspiracy, leaving
only the theory that the accused
may have Intentionally aided and
"DSiNCu tic person o. persons VINO
actually killed Foster.
Upon this theory OF the case
there has been deIiberation of
live hours, indicating hopeless
disagreement.
The jury may finally agree, but
but at noon the prevailing impress
sion was that there would be a
mistrial.
The crowd awaiting the verdict
is not so large as IL was last eve
ming, but among those present
there Is no less interest than was
manifested then.
The prisoner has recovered
from his recent indispOsition, and
with his wife, children and BROTH
ers, Jasper and Garland, awaited
the action of the jury with sup
pressed anxiety.
