Winnipeg, Man., Sept. 6.-The jury
in the case of Sir Redmond Robin,
former premier Of this province, and
two members Of his cabinet, John R.
Coldwell, minister of education, and
j: H. Howden, attorney general,
charged with conspiracy to defraud
the province in the erection of par
Lament buildings here, reported to
Judge Prendergast at 4 o'clock yes
terday afternoon that they were un-
able to agree.
The jury was Immediately dismissed.
The case was given to the jury Mon
day night after a trial which con-
tlnued nearly six weeks. Yesterday
afternoon the foreman reported to
Judge Prendergast that the jury was
unable to agree. The court asked that
another effort be made to reach a
verdict. Later the foreman informed
the court that the jury was divided,
to 3, and that an agreement was
impossible.
The government charged that the
ex-ministers entered into a conspiracy
with Thomas Kelly. the parliament

guilty of defrauding the government.
to obtain money through manipula-
ton of accounts, for the purpose Of
raising a campaign fund with which
to keep the Robin government in
power.
Counsel for the defense. on the other
hand. contended that there had been
no evidence to show that the ex-
ministers had any knowledge of the
alleged irregularities.
In his charge to the jury, Judge
Prendergast declared that there was
less evidences against Sir Redmond
than against the other two defen-
dants. Exceptions to this statement
were filed by counsel for the defense.
