SEE NO VERDICT
DunfOrd Case Likely to Have
to Be Retired.
Jurors Seem HOpelessIy Divid-
ed at Lunch Hour.

AT noon today, the II jurors in
dicated to Judge Whitcomb that
there were slight hopes of an agree
ment in the James Dunford case. I'm
less a verdict is reached this after
noon, the jury will be discharged
After working on the evidence and
instructions since $50 last night, the
jury indicated at noon that they were
hopelessly at sea and probably could
not agree. 1t was when attorneys for
the defense moved to sound the jury
that an expression came from several
of the individual members. Judge
Whitcomb was not inclined to ask for
an expression at this time and stated
that he was not yet ready to discharge
the jury.
County Attorney Simon asked that
the jury be kept at work until all
hopes of a verdict were gone. He
mentioned the expense of the trial
and this brought a protest from the
defense. Then the court asked if any
of the members cared to make a state
ment without revealing their position.
Juror Brady was the first to re-
spond. Your honor" said Brady,
I'VE ought to be asked to STOP That
was all he said.
Il don't see how on earth we can
get together lamented Juror Glass
ner. Its like talking to a tree and
it looks as though there was no hope
of a verdict
Foreman Randall gave the only in
timation of how the jury stood. I'VE
differ on these two pieces of paper"
and Randall, holding up two of the

Juror Bratton was the only member
to offer ray of hope. Il don't know
what we may do said Bratton with
an emphasis of the may 'but we

POLITICS in HOUSE
Langley of Kentucky Criticises
Phil Campbell of Kansas.
Barnhart of Indiana Takes a
Fling at Roosevelt.

Washington, April 27.-Presidential
politics again held the attention of the
house today. Representative Langley
of Kentucky, a Republican, took Rep
resentative Campbell of Kansas, Re
publican, to task for his recent attack
on Colonel Roosevelt. 81 do not think
it proper for gentlemen who may
have gotten the worst of it on the
stump or in the newspapers to come
into the house and air their griev-
ances.' said Mr.. Langley. The Ken
tuckian a little later declared that if
the Republican leaders continued to
fight each other a Democratic victory
in Novemb Der might be expected.
The postoffice appropriation bill was
under consideration. Representative
Barnhart of Indiana, Democrat, speak
ing on his amendment to the postal
laws to require the names of owners,
stockholders and publishers of news
papers to be printed daily, contended
there were many rumors that the In
ternational Harvester company con-
troIled certain New York papers and
he knew it controlled a certain Chi
cago paper"
Il don't think the gentleman knows
that" interrupted Representative Mann
of Illinois.
DO not the McCornicks control the
Chicago Tribune?" asked Mr.. Barn
hardt-
mot the same McCormicks who are
in the Harvester company" said Mr..
Mann.
Are they not the same family?'
asked Mr.. Barnhart.
mo, not even the same family said
Mr. Mann
my information has been the samo
family that is the principal stockhold-
ers in the Harvester trust controls the
Chicago Tribune. If that is not true
1 will not make the statement"
THAT certainly is not true said Mr..
Mann.
well, I happen to know it is true.
1t is also reported that Mr.. Perkins,
head of the harvester trust, owns the
New York Mail and owns it by sub
terfuge," declared Mr.. Barnhart.
THE company reorganiZed and is
sued bonds and Mr.. Perkins holds the
majority of the bonds and dictates
the policy of that paper in behalf of
the harvester trust and a certain re-
form candidate for the presidency"

a nice little fight with George Neeley,
the Democratic congressman, for the
election.

and a progressive from the headwat-
ers. He has many friends in Topeka

Cherokee county, has withdrawn from
the Republican gubernatoriaI race.

too strongly intrenched in their po-

future to vindicate me.
but I represent a cause; I represent
the Republican party that stands for
wise progress under the constitution
and stands for liberty regulated by
law. 1 must do my duty and answer
the charges of Colonel Roosevelt. It is
not a pleasant thing to DO. In ordinary

president of the United States to enter
a personal controversy. But am
forced against the wall with my back
to it. and I'm bound, if 1 have any
manhood, to fight"
spoke With Emotion.
The president spoke with evident
emotion. He walked the platform,
pounded the rail in front of him and,
as he warmed up to his subject, grew
red in the face with anger.

in Boston; his alleged friendship for
bosses in various states. to the declara-
tion that he was in favor of an olgar-
chy and against government by the
people, and to many others

former Senator AIdrich and others,
Mr.. Taft explained it was at Mr
