mediately retired to consider his fate.
At II O'Clock the jury went to bed
and will resume deliberations in the

The entire day was taken up by
long and elaborate arguments 10y
counsel on both sides Of the case, and
the evidence has been hashed and re
hashod until both the jury and the
audience. most OF whom have sat
through the entire trial know 1t all
by heart.

dramatic manner. Thore is nothing
