investors and were ordered locked UP for
the night by Judge Mack, OF the United

II was understood in the Federal Build
ing that from an early moment in the
deliberations Of the jury. which began on
Thursday afternoon, eleven jurors were
for conviction and one was for acduittal.
II was said that ell argument OF the other
Jurors failed 10 change the opinion OF the
one man. and the deadlock has continued
ever since.
Several times the Jurors appealed yes
terday TO Judge Mack 10 accept their dis
agreement and TO discharge them but the
Judge refused TO do that. When the sec
ond request of that kind was brought 10
him in the afternoon. Judge Mack ordered
the Jury into the courtroom and read the
law TO them, explaining again the duties
OF the jury.
The case was an important one, Judge
Mack said. and the trial had lasted nine
weeks. II was the duty OF the jury TO
exhaust every effort toward reaching an
agreement. and he would again remand
them 10 the jury room.
Later two OF the Jurors were reported

called in. One of the jurors recovered
Immediately. while the other complained
about his poor condition and professed
inability to go on. DR.. Pritchard was
called in for consultation, and he agreed
with the other physician that the juror
could 90 on with his duties without dan

IL was $50 when Judge Mack sent the
iury over to the Astor House for It's Sec

longer. Az il stands, this jury promises
TO break the record for the length of jury
deliberations. established in this district
by the Drew and Wardsll case. four years
AGO, when The Jury was out two days.

Originally the Netherlands were
rich in timber, but as enormous
amounts of timber were cut and moth
ing was done to replace the trees re-
moved, this wealth of the country
was gradually exhausted. During the
last twenty-five years, however, the
area of woodland in the Netherlands
has again commenced to grow, thanks
to the initiative of De Merchandising

acres were wooded in 1888, but in
