Finally, boxes and debris were
piled high in the center of the Negro
district and the body tossed on top.

take two other Negroes, who were
accused of aiding the hunted man

The idea was dropped, however, and
the mob gradually disbanded.

At conclusion of the in

Judge Hines indicated he will re-
quire the jury to continue its DELHI
erations until the deadlock is
broken.
1t was rumored the jury stood
nine to three in favor of the death
penalty, the three favoring life i'm

conviction makes the death penalty
mandatory.

Mason, given the same oppor-

chose to stand trial on a charge of
murder during the commission Of a
robbery. The death penalty is
mandatory upon conviction.
Instructions Are Lengthy
Following lengthy reading OF
instructions to the jury yesterday,
the case was given to the taIesmen
at 155 p. m. In his instructions,
Judge Hines told the jurors that if
they found that Mason aided and
abetted" in causing the death of
Sergeant Jones they must return
verdict of guilty
The judge explained to the tales
men that the fact that the bandits
had appeared at the garage, per-
petrated holdup and shot Sergeant
Jones was ample proof of con-
spiracy without the necessity of the
state showing that the defendants
had met before the crime and con-
spired to kill the police officer.
It is not necessary for the state to
show which of the bandits fired the
shot which killed Sergeant Jones,
Judge Hines asserted in his instruc-
tons to the jurors.
