SPLIT VERDICT Is UPHELD

The state supreme court, in an opin-
ion written by Chief Justice Brown,
has upheld the decision Of Judge Roes-
er of St. Cloud, that the split verdict
is permissible in a bastardy case,
where the procedure is civil through
out. Such case was tried before
Judge Roeser in st. Cloud at the De-
cember, 1915, term Of court, William
Longwen being the defendant. The
jury returned q 1i> e-sixths, or split
verdict, eleven of them being for
conviction. Judge Roeser sentenced
Longwell to pay SIS per month toward
the support Of the child until it is 16
years of age. He carried the case to
the supreme court, contendi1g that the
split verdict was not permissible, but
the supreme court judge ruled to the
contrary.
