Doctor II. T. Stafford and a nurse

In the excitement, DOheny left

agitated and trembling violently.
AS he neared the door he turned
toward the bench and exclaimed
in a loud voice. "This case was
not tried by the jury, it was
tried by the Judge" Friends

jurors stood for acquiItal, three
were for conviction. and two We're
doubtful. Three more ballots We're
taken before the jury went to bed
about midnight, and, on the last
one, seven were for conviction and
five for acquittal. At midnight,
Norris said, it did not look as
though a verdict could be reached.
Three ballots We're taken this
morning, the first being II to l for
conviction. The remaining Juror
came over to the majority and 1t
was agreed to deliver verdict or
guilty. with a recommendation TO-
mercy.
Jurors Told OF Collapse
AS soon as the jury was polIed
and affirmed it's verdict, Justice
IIitz addressed the members. For
the first time the Jurors learned
that Fall had collapsed during the
first week of the trial, that four
doctors had reported he had bron-
chial pneumonia. and advised
gainst his continuing on trial.
These facts We're related to the
Jurors by Justice HltZ. who said
that he thought they We're entitled
to know what had taken place in
their absence.
He told them, too, that the Gov
eminent had moved for a mistrial,
and how the defense had objected,
and how Fall. in defiance of the
orders of his four doctors, had
returned to the courtroom daily.
As soon as Justice HitZ had con-
cluded. Hogan announced he would
move for a new trial.
Ore Of the results Of Falls con-
viction probably will be that the
Government will proceed to have
Doheny indicted for bribery and
tried as an accessory to the act
of giving the eXCabinet officer the
100000. This is on the theory that
Fall, having been found guilty of
accepting bribery, DOheny becomes
equally guilty as the brihe-g iyer.
