Jury Reverses Itself.

ty jury established u record when
it found a man guilty of crime
and six hours later acquitted him of
the same charge. The case was that
of Harry Haulton, Walter Joyce and
Bernard Fox, of Sayre. charged with
criminal assault After being out all
night the jury returned a verdict con-
victing Haulton and acquitting Joyce
and Fox, but putting the costs on
them.
The court refused to accept this ver-
dict and sent the jury back to remove
disposition of the costs because the
costs were taken care of when one of
the men was convicted. The jury at
first was unable to agree and it was
not until o'clock In the afternoon
that verdict acquitting all three men
was returned The costs were divided
one-half on Haulton and one-quarter
