M'sEoLA. l.. l.. Oct. % (Sunday).-
AZ o'clock this morning the jury
n tho Carman case was still out.
Notwithstanding the late hour many
spectators Including a number Of
women. remained in the court room.
Justice kelby was in his chambers.
The urymen have not been seard from
since II o'clock. when they asked to
have portions Of Celia Coleman's testi-
mony sent to them.
MiNEoLA. L. l.. Oct. 24.-The jury
which Is to decide whether or not Mrs.
Florence \. Carman is guilty of the
murder Of Mrs Lulu Bailey retired at
e:45 o'clock tonight, having listened
20 the final arguments OF counsel and
the charge OF Justice Kelby amid sucn
scenes as this trial has not presented
since the FIRST juror took his seat last
Monday morning.
Every seat in the court room was
taken. as II has been throughout the
week. and In the corridors many per-
fOfS were SAduuliSs fub'i w NoNth n
word here and there OF how things
were going, or to get n glimpse OF the
woman who has retained her composure
TO remarkably. During the last three
days there have been many predictions
as to what the jury would do.
Only the closest observer could detect
any readable expression in the faces OF
these men as they listened to the argu-
ments Of counsel Now and then they
seemed drawn forward in their seats
b. the force Of the man speaking to
them, but for the most part they were
s'olid and inscrutable.
The situation was quite otherwise
with the spectators and those who are
most deeply concerned in these pro-
cerdngs. The summing up Of John
!. Gruham chief counsel for Mrs. Car
man, Was carefully constructed argu-
ment that ended in an impassioned plea
Tor pomau's life. There were many
women in the court room and they gavo
way freely to their emotions. Mrs. Car
man who has displayed constantly such
a command Of herself as TO excite the
admiration OF every one, broke down
and wcpt with the husband and daugh-
ter beside her.
r., faces of the jury az they went out
were 50 long that one might well have
tH,ul1t hey were going TO their own
'Ireral AZ they rose from their chairs
Mrs Carman's pale face was turned in
f,Urlv IN their direction, but not one OF
lem looked At her. In very few mo
freute they had disappeared through a
70 door nto the jury room The mob OF
fPe.tltnrs rose To their feet as II to 60
GU. but very soon sat down again when
Informed hy the clerk of the court thai
20 one leaving would be readrpitted.
Scarcely had the jury disappeared when
Sire Iarmnn was led from the room ia
vn' ou'si1c the reassembling OF the
court pr. Carman went out with her
IU', Elizabeth had not been brought
back Tor the night session and her grand
'd'n., aud grandmother, Mr. and Mrs
to.'Nr, had remained away as well
Mrs Iprn,. Mrs. Carman's niece, and
>iTs. Powell, her sister, were the only
immediate members of the family aside
from IT,. Horman who were in the court
