DOUBTFUL
JURY is LOCKED UP FOR NIGHT.
BUT MAY REACH VERDICT
SOME TIME TO-DAY.

ST Louis, April ~. The jury in the

don ordered the Jurors to seal II and he

reported this afternoon that the jurors
had given no indication of having

0 o'clock yesterday.
Lewis remained In the courtroom
waiting for a verdict While express
ing the hope that he would get an ac-
qulttal or at least a divided jury. Lewis
nevertheless indicated that he was pre-
pared for an unfavorable verdict.

all appeals for sympathy and said they
must convince themselves that Lewis
made misrepresentation with intent to
defraud investors. knowing he was not
telling the truth about the stock.
1T has been testified" said Judge
Amidon, that circular letters were sent
out to investors explaining that the
notes they were getting were unsecured.
This Is persuasive evidence. IL seems to
me Lewis understood that the sub
scribers at first believed they were get
ing secured notes for their money II
he wanted them to know what they
were getting why didn't he uncauivo-
cally and Enthusiastically tell them that
they were getting unsecured notes so
that the whole matter would be IA plain,
honest, open business transaction"
Judge Amidon also referred to the
evidence that the government had also
fought Lewis enterprises. He told the
Jurors they might either Judge from,
this that the government or Lewis had
been wronged but, unless they be-
lieved this fight had entered into the
things which had caused Lewis TO
make the representation, the entire
subject must be disregarded.

AIKEN NOMINEE THREATENED.
Some More Election Echoes-Hugl
Long Talks of Situation.

Aiken, Sept. 1s.--Considerable in
terest attaches to the election in the
recent second primary of Mr.. Hugh
Long to the house of representatives,
in that it is reported that, as a direct
result of his election, there have come,
from the eastern section of the coun-
ty, particularly Wagener-of which
town he is the present mayor-and
envirous, alleged threats of dire viol-
ence to his person in the event that
he should return to his home. These
however, have been merely rumors.
and have never taken any material
form.
When interviewed today upon this
matter, Mr.. Long, without any show
of hesitancy, announced that he, too
had heard these rumorS, but that he
believed them to be without any very
material foundation, since they had
emanated from irresponsible sources
He admitted that, as a result OF the
spirit of local factionalism in Wagon
er, springing from the fact that two
residents from the town were in the
race for the house of representatives,
considerable bitterness was felt by
his non-supporters over his election.
However, Mr.. Long stated that ne
accredited his strongest political enc
mics with the possession of too much
manhood, too much strength of char
acter and purpose, too high a sense
of justice, to give vent to any such
foolish threats, any such puerile bick-
erings, as have been received in Aiken,
and alleged to have come from Wag-
ener. And in this connection, he reit-
Grated his belief that the threats had
come from irresponsible persons, who
were incapable of realizing the enor-
nifty of their expressions, thought
lessly made, and without the sanction
of his political opposers, for he said, 1t
was foolish to make such threats, and
would be more serious still to endeav-
or to execute them, simply because the
majority of the voters of Aiken county
had seen fit to select him as one Of
their representatives in the State leg
islative body.
Mr.. Long stated today that several
times during his absence from Wag-
ener his office had been surreptitously
entered, even broken into, for the pur-
pose, he believed, of gaining access to
his private papers and such records
as he might have on file.
Concluding the interview, Mr. Long
stated that. as an evidence of his dis
belief in the alleged threats Of viol-
ence, he was certainly going back to
Wagner, his home, so soon as he
shall have made adjustment of GER
tain political matters now demand
ing his attention and his presence in
Aiken.
