SEVEN STAND FOR
QU|TTAL; FIVE
FOR CONVICTION

After thirty hours Of deliberation
the jury in the case of Prentiss Smith
who is charged with numbering his
brother, Harold Smith, disagreed and
was dismissed Tuesday night at 10
o'clock by Judge w. w. Bardwell.
When dismissed the jury stood seven
for acquittal and five for conviction.
Seven of the jurors were women and
Ave were men.
Defended by Sister.
Prentiss Smith who is facing the
charge of numbering his brother Har-
old Smith on November first as the
result of a quarrel was defended by
his sister Miss Lena Smith. A. R.
Chestnut (white) was retained as
counsel for the defense.
When Smith surrendered to the po-
lice shortly after shooting his young
er brother at their residence 1905
Fifth Avenue S., Minneapolis, ac-
cording to his own story, the shooting
was accidental, but during the course
of the trial testimonies were made to
show that the murder was commit
ted in self defense. Several witness
es were called in to testify.
A new trial before a new jury will
more than likely be called early next
week.

Ford Operates Old Thresher As When Boy

DETROIT, Mich, Oct. e.-Run- ming the same threshing machine which he had operated on the farm of John Gleason in 1882, Henry Ford yesterday threshed oats on the farm of Jim Glea- son, brother of the original owner Ford worked the tractor all day while Gleason fed bundles Into the machine Dur ing the day 7S0 bushels of oats were threshed and when evening came Ford asserted that he would be back today to finish the work.
 Several years ago Ford de- cided he would like to see the old machine and began search for it. The only Identification he had was the numer "345,. which he recalled. After a long search, the machine was found, in disuse, on farm in Pennsylvania
 The farmer wanted $tO for the machine and Ford purchased it. presenting him with an automo- bile in addition. He had it sent to the factory, repaired and put In working order. A few days ago Ford sent the thresher to the Gleason farm and yesterday he appeared to run the machine, which he says In one of his books, was the one that gave him his first idea of building an au- tomobile. h

WAR PROF THEIRS STILL G0 FREE AT NATIONS EXPENSE
Daugherty Fails To Bring "War Criminals" To Jus
 tice, As He Promised
WASHINGTON BUREAU 1
 THE AGE-HERALD ! Washington. ID. C.. Oct. 6 l

Those who took advantage of the exigency of war to profiteer at the expense of the country 5till breathe the air of freedom. Despite the assur- ance of the Attorney General, Harry M Daugherty, given as soon as he acquired office in the beginning of the Harding administration, that so- called war criminals2 would be brought to justice. he has failed. to date. to secure a conviction in a single notable case.
 On the contrary the idea obtains that the Attorney General, who, prior to his elevation to office, was re- garded as 6 politician of particular astuteness. has been engaged in the favorite. It has openly been charged that in proceeding against Benedict Crowell, who was an assistant secre- tary of war during the Wilson ad- ministration, the Attorney General has sought to bring that adr1inistra- tion into disrepute.
 Henry l.. Stimson. Secretary of War during the administration of Mir. Taft, while arguing in behalf of a demurrer to the Crowell indictment, declared that it was a political procedure on the part of the Attorney General, an indictment of the cost-plus system, In fact. and that if Crowell could have been justly indicted. former President Wilson and former Secre- tary of War Baker could have been justly indicted for the same offense.

Encouraging Information Re-
 ceived At Washington By Alabama Delegation Tending
 To Refute Wall Street Story REPRESENTATIVE OLIVER THINKS PLAN A LIVE ONE Convinced Ford Will, Continue
 To Aspire For Possession Of
 Property, That The Farmers
 May Get Cheaper Fertilizer
WASHINGTON BUREAU
 THE AGE-HERALD Waahfurton. D. C.. Oct. 6


 Alabamians in congress were made aware today that Henry Ford has not definitely concluded either to aban- don or continue his fight for Muscle Shoals.
 Yesterday MT. Ford was quoted by the Wall Street Journal as having said that he would not revise his offer. If Mr. Ford had been correct ly quoted, 1t would have behooved Alabamians here to abandon their efforts in his behalf. Inquiry through private channels was adressedd to Detroit last night. Definite informa- ton came today which encourages supporters of the Ford bid to believe that he will renew his fight as soon as congress reconvenes.
 Representative ". B. Oliver Of the Sixth, Alabama district, takes a most hopeful view of the situation. He appears convinced that MT. Ford will persist In his play to give the farm CTS of the south abundant high grade fertilizer at the lowest possible cost. After further preliminary steps leading to another Muscle Shoals bat tie In December, Mir. Oliver will go to Birmingham Tuesday. He will ad- dress the Kiwanis club of Ensley Thursday,
