 Your reporter says: During the long time that the jury wrestled with the case it was understood on good au- thority that they took several ballots, and that these showed they stood s to on tho proposition to give a yer S100 damages and costs.'
 The truth is, and this statement can be substantiated upon the highest au- thority, that at no time in their de- Alterations did the jury vote on the question of awarding damages to Craney. On the contrary at the close of their deliberations. they stood 8 to in favor of the defendant, Donovan, with 2 additional jurors in his favor, who declined to vote unless the re- maining of the 12 jurors would join with them and so reach an agreement
