Two Sides to Picture.
The situation is two-sided:

women following you block on

Young squireens in from the coun-

One juror was today preventing
agreement among the l2 men hold
ing the kasimir Schneider mur-
der case This report was made to
District Judge Janonius this morn
ing, after the jury had been out
from five o'clock Friday afternoon,
and the jury was to deliberate a
few more hours before it's final
report was accepted.
The jury stood II to- l for con-
viction almost from the start, it
is understood.
When Judge Jansonius called
the jury in at 9:3O o'clock this
morning, Foreman Davis reported
the situation to the court, but did
not say whether the jury was in
majority for conviction or acquit-
tai. He reported that there did
not appear to be any chance of an
agreement. He did say, however,
that there were few points the
minority member had debated
over, and was not quite clear on.
Foreman Davis said the discussion
throughout had been free from an
ger.
Emphasizes Importance
Judge Jansonius told the jury
that they had been very patient
and had worked hard. He explain
ed that the case had required sew
eral days for trial, that the de-
fendant was entitled to be relieved
from strain if the jury could agree
upon verdict of any kind, that
the county was put to great ex-
pense, and that while, of course,
there should not any forced ver-
dict, it was right and proper that
the jury should take as much time
as necessary to consider every
angle of the evidence which re-
quired several days to produce in
open court. He explained that the
jurors would not be required to sit
in any other cases during the term,
but that in view of the Importance
of the case and the mass of evil
dence before the jury, he believed
they ought to ponder a while more
before being discharged. The
court offered to give any advice on
law points but said he would not
offer any opinion as to the facts,
and said the court had no opinion
IS to the facts.
The court prepared to take up
other cases on the calendar chief

we're for trial Saturday were settl-
I'd out of court. They were that
