syracuse, n. Y, May 22.-The jury

To-day returned a verdict in favor of
the defendant after considering for
more than eleven hours the question
or placing all the costs of action upon
the plaintiff. 1t is the belief of the
jury everything Colonel Roosevelt
charged is true and therefore the
plaintiff, not having been libeled, is
entitled to no damages.
The foreman of the jury, Warren
w. Summers, announced that the ver-
dict was for the defendant and the
jury was polled. Ten Jurors an
swered -"for the defendant" then the
clerk hesitated, called the name of
Edward Burns and waited. Burns,
big rosy checked Republican, stood
up in his seat and in a deep voice
said:

Jurors, the room was absolutely quiet
until the name of Burns was called
When he announced that he, too, fav-
ored a verdict for the former presi-
dent, the courtroom buzzed like a dy-
namo with voices.
Several persons in the courtroom
stood up and waved their hands, but
there was no outburst of applause.
After the announcement of the YER
diet attorney for Mr.. Barnes objected
to its receipt. The objection was over
ruled, the jury was thanked by Jus
tice Andrews for its services and it
then filed out into the jury room. Col
Roosevelt shook hands with his coun-
sci and several newspaper men whom
he has known for several years, and
hurried to the jury room. There he
