JURY IN BEUT|NGER
CASE CANNOT AGREE
|. AND IS DISCHARGED
Courts Instruction Woman
Must Show She Retreat
ed,' the Cause
By Carl d. Groat.
Omitted Press staff correspondent.)

| (United Press staff correspondent.)
| Newark, N. j., Oct. zo.-After 22
hours of deliberation the jury that sat
in judgment in the case of Mrs. Mar
garet Claire Beutinger, charged with
the murder of her wealthy husband,
Christopher Beutinger. this. afternoon
reported its utter inability to agree and
was discharged.
After Is hours deliberation the jury
trying Mrs. Margaret Beutinger for the
murder of her wealthy husband, Christie.
pher Beutinger, reported to Judge Mar
ltin at 1898 today that it had been un-
able to agree and submitted to the court
two questions. r
After the questions had been answer
ed the jury retired again to deliberate.
The questions were:
! "Does the law impose upon the de,
fendant the necessity of taking all rea-
sonable steps to avert a tragedy when
she wishes to establish plea Of self,
defenses'
"Pleas define again the difference
of degrees of homicide.
The first question evidently arose
from the portion of the judges instruc,
tions to the jurors yesterday in which
he declared that, to establish self de-
fense. the defense must show that Mrs.
Beutinger retreated before her hus.
band g threats in her bedroom, if she
had an opportunity to retreat. Her coun-
sci took exception to that portion of the
charge on the ground that she was lying
in bed when her husband made his ad-
vances and was unable to retreat. Judge
Martin went into a more detailed tech
nical explanation in response to the jur'
ors questions, citing court decisions.
The second question asked by the jury
tended to confirm reports that several
of the jurors had refused to acquit Mrs.
Beutinger, but were holding out for her
conviction for lesser degree of homi-
eide. One rumor in the court room was
that three jurors favored aequittal and
the others conviction of lessed crime
The little woman defendant went in
to Mysteries when she was brought into
the court room and saw the jurors lined
up before the judges bench.
! When the jury retired at 3:05 yester
day afternoon Mrs. Beutinger was con
fident of acquittal. Throughout the
night the jurors fought and wrangled
over the question: "Has married wo
man, the mother of five children, the
right of ownership of her own body anc
the right to kill, if necessary, to pro
tect itf"
So certain was Mrs. Beutinger that
she would be freed that she had arrang
ed party for her five babies last night
The jury came in at 9:23 this morning
unable to agree and with request fol
further instructions,
For one brief moment, as the jury wa!

compose herself while she looked wild
ly about the court room for her children
Then she burst out in fresh shrieks an,
her cries could be heard throughout tn,

The jury's failure to vote an acquit

then as president of the United States,
i have been permitted to lead first a
great state and then great national
party along the ways OF progress and of
enlarged and regenerated life which our
people had so long sought and so long
been held back from by the organized
power of selfish interest, and because
the great honor has fallen to me of be;
ing chosen once more spokesman and
representative of the men who mean to
hold the country to these ways of
peace, humanity and progress. It is of
these forces that shall speak. and not
of myself, who am merely their servant.
"What are these forcesi Whence do
they spring? What have they accomp-
lished, and what is their program and
purpose for the futurei 1t is plain what
they are. They are the forces of humane,
righteous, and patriotic purpose which
have sprung up in our day in the minds
of those who preceive the shortcomings
of the law as it has hardened in Amer
lea and who look forward with purpose
and conviction to new age in which
government shall be indeed the servant
Of liberty and not privilege. These are
men who perceive that American law
has not kept pace with American senti-
ment: that our law has been holding us
rigid and immovable, until class has be-
gun, in free America, to be arrayed
against class; until what was legal has
begun to play more important part in
our thoughts and determinations than
what is human and right; and until
America has begun to lag instead of
lead in reconciling what is with what
ought to be.
A new age had dawned upon us while
those who were attempting to lead us
were stumbling along with their heads
ever their shoulders, intent upon pre-.
serving the conditions Of a day that is
gone. America had changed and the
whole world had changed. Our com
merce and industry had grown to such
bulk that the domestic markets OF
which our former leaders were always
so solicitous were glutted and we were
bound, unless we were to burst our
Jacket, to find free outlet into the
markets of the world. The time had
come when our commerce needed free
dom and would be throttled by furth
er restraints. We had acquired foreigi
possessions, had been drawn into thu
politics of the world, had begun TO pla.
a part which could not be played b,
provincials but must be played by citi
zens of the great world of nations. Ant
