JURY IS
Still OUT

Minneapolis, May 22-The Joseph
w. Bragdon jury after having been
out 40. hours, appeared before Judge
Daniel Fish at 11:45 a. m. today and,
through its foreman, Albert F. Bastyr,
announced that it had been unable to
reach a verdict and that it saw no
prospect of reaching an agreement.
Judge Fish told the jurors that while
he had no desire to force a verdict
the Importance of the case made it
desirable that an agreement be
reached. and instructed the jury to re-
turn and resume delibera tions.
This was the first word heard from
the jury since it retired at 4:45 p. m.
Saturday, except when it appeared in
the courtroom shortly after 10 a. m.
today, and asked for further instruc-
tions. The jurors wanted to know
whether an attempt by the defendant
ito hide the truth and evidence" is to
be considered an admission of guilt.
