The Jury in thc case of Mrs. Florence Con kim Carman, after listening all the afternoon and evening to the summing up of the defense and the prosecution and the charge of Justice Charles il. Kelby, retired at 9.45 o'clock to night to begin its deliberations. The defense of the woman charged with the murder of Mrs. Louise Hailey rested its case ear ly in thc morning session and sev eral witnesses in iebuttal were caliea. Then for more than three hours and a half John J. Graham, Mrs. Carman's chief counsel; dissect ed ihe State's case. He severe ly criticized the district attorney's methods, particularly referring to the manner in which the poseai tnr had guarded thc witness, Celia Coleman. He asserted the slayer of Mrs. Bailey undoubtedly was a man. He scouted the testimony of Celia Coleman and Frank Far rell. In summing up, District Attor ney Smith painted Mrs. Carman as a calculating, scheming woman, who deliberately murdered under the spur of jealousy. He laid emphasis on the testimony of the negress. Celia Coleman, and Far rell. He said he knew the mur der was "an inside job," and that the servant, if anyone, would be the person to tell about it. Had he allowed tne girl to stay in the houie, he said, she would have remained under the influence of the Carman family. He ex cused her a?l^s'a^ fSfsfihoodS ?.t the start by her own words-thut she was "sorry for Mrs. Carman.*' The family of the mud?red wo men were in court all day. . Before the justice began his | charge Graham took exception to several of the district attorney's statements, claiming the prosecu tor had not stuck to the facts. Justice Kelby began to deliver his charge shortly after 9 o'clock. He did not discuss the evidence, but explained different degrees of homicide, discussed at some length the credibility of witnsses and said that a mass of the evidence in this case was admitted for the purpose of impeaching other witnesses.. When a ten minutes recess was taken today the jury was told to decicje whether it would go to dinner before the summing up of the State's case by District Attor ney Smith. The jury decided to do without dinner and District At torney Smith began: "I tell you, gentlemen, I knew this was an inside job. I deter mined to get the truth and went? after th? person who knew about every person m the house. And I tell you the negro girl has been an unwilling witness." The district attorney vigorous ly defended the girl, then start ed to analyze thev case of the de fense : "You can't expsct any enlight enm?nt,** he said, "from Mrs. Carman. She His a vityl interest in the outcome. "Don't you think lt would be human for a woman to tome downstairs after hearing a noise, finding out that a woman had been shot and not have to eurolsl ty to go into the doctor's office and see who it was?" The district attorney then, took up the testimony of other mem bers of the Carman family and said It was untrue, as the wet nesses had motives to testify false ly. "Now," he went on, I'll tell you why Mrs. Carman said: M shot him,' He dropped oh the \?aor behind the' operating chiir* So she thought the bullet had hit him.

He described testi mony about the bloodhounds as an "insult to any jury's intelli gence." In conclusion the district att?T-" ney reminded the jurors that they had promised that the fact that the defendant was a woman would not affect their good judgment. Kudolph Loewe, testified to day that he was within fifteen feet of Dr. Carman's office when the shot was fired which killed Mrs. Bailey. Loewe looked up when he heard the report, and ac cording to his testimony, saw a man run across the Carman lawn and leap over the fence. He said then he looked into Dr. Carman's office and saw the doctor with a woma.i in his arms. There were two women in front of the house, Mr. Loewe added. He also saw a man he did not know standing in the vestibule of the doctor's office. "How near were you to the two women whom you saw on the steps?" asked Mr. Smith. "About fifteen feet," Loewe re plied. Justice Kelby had to stand by the witness chair to shout his questions. Justice Kelby asked him how long he had looked in to the doctor's office and he said about thirty seconds. Then he left but before doing so he saw a door open and a woman in white enter the office. . By that time inc woman wiiu had been shot was lying on the floor. Mrs. Carman, highly nervous, was brought out into the court room. Three women friends and a prison guard followed her. She took her seat at the counsel table., The jury then suddenly decided it did not desire the testimony and the defendant was led back to the chambers. MINEOLA, N. Y.-During the first hour of the iury's delibera tions tonight Mrs. Carman remain ed in the chambers at th/5; rear of the court. An hour and five min utes after the jury had retired it sent out a request for some testi mony.

Tho fox hunter has j nothing to do but "sit tight," and has ? io occupation for his hands, except, j by the play of the bit, to get tho very best performance out of his horse a delicate enough operation and not *o be o nicely acquired. He uses a* ' saddle In. which he can sit safely j over different obstacles, but whieh is convenient to fall out of should the j horPG come down. A huntsman rides j the flattest thing known except a oad. The home of tho short seat and long stirrup is the Occident: that of the 'ong seat and short stirrup the Or 'ent. These are varied in every lo cality to suit its own peculiarities, inherited cr ncquired. The astern rider clings to his extremely short ' leather In order to place him higher 'han others above his horse In the Thargo and therefore make him the moro imposing when he Btands up in his stirrups to brandish scimitar or matchlock.
