ANOTHER MISTRIAL
Jury in Nan Patterson Case Failed to
Agree on a Verdict
THE SAME RESULT AS FORMERLY
After Nearly 13 Hours' Deliberation,
With an Interval For Supper, the
Jury Entrusted With the Fate of
Caesar Young's Alleged Murderess
Proves No More Able Than Its Pre
decessors to Reach a Verdict.
New York, Speial.-At 1:30 o'clock
rhursday morning the jury in th'e case
af Nan Patterson, tried for the third
1me on the charge of murdering Caesar
Young, was called into the court room
by Recorder Goff. When the 12 men
were in their places and the court offi
2ials had all arrivel, the recorder asked
why the defendant had not been
trought into court. A deputy sheriff
replied that she had been feeling Ill i
nd had retired, but was then being
dressed. After a wait of 12 minstes,
Mdiss Patterson appeared looking pale
and in a highly nervous state.
"Gentlemen, have you been able to
reach an agreement?" asked the re
corder of the jury.
"No, sir," replied the foreman.
"Is there any question of law or
evidence in which I can instruct you?
[s there any way in which the court
can help you?"
The foreman looked for an Instant
at his fellewmen, then turning to the
recorder, said: "No, sir, I don't be
lieve you can help us."
"Then you will retire to reconsider
the matter."
JURY DISCHARGED.
The jury filed out and the court
room was cleared. Recorder Goff re
mained in his chamber ready to re
seive a verdict if rendered or to. fur
ther instruct the Jury. Upon being as
sured that there was no chance of an
agreement, he discharged the jury.
While the jury cor.sidering her case
was still out. Nan Patterson at in her
cell in the Tombs, buoyed up by the
hope that at the end of their delibera
tion the twelve men would agree to a
verdict of not guilty. Miss Patterson's
hope were based partly on rumors
which were current about the Criminal
Court building, that the 5rst ballot
taken in the jury room were decidedly
In her favor. The jury had had the case
since shortly after 1 o'clock Wednesday
afternoon.
During the afternoon the jury sent to
the court rooms for articles of cloth
ing worn by Caesar Young at the time
he met his death, and the skeleton
which was exhibited during the trial
by the prosecution in its endeavor to
show that the victim of the tragedy
could not have inflicted the wound him
self.
At 1.35 the jury, recorder and other
court officials had assembled in the
court room. Recorder Goff demanded
to k.now why Nan Patterson was not
present, when he was informed that
she was Ill. He gave orders directing
that she be produced immediately.
CHARGE TO THE JURY.
Recorder Goff in his charge to the
jury said:
"You must not think that, because
of :h~e humble position of this woman.
yor. should not give her the same con
sidration as if she occupied a more
exalted position In society. Whatever
her position, she is entitled to the same
legal rights as the most prominent
and most conspicuous.
The recorder described the two de
grees of murder and manslaughter in
the first and second degrees, which, he
said, he apprehended by the request to
charge, was thought by counsel to be
applicable in the case, and proceeded:
"I understand that there is no claim
on the part of the defense that If the
defendant/committed this homicide it
was either justifiable or excusable. I
also understand that the defense
claims that the crime was murder in
the first degree or nothing. But you
are not bound to accept the arguments
of counsel as to the nature of this
erime. You are the judges of the facts,
if there was murder, and In what de
gree. The crucial question Is, 'Did the
man kIll himself or did this defendant
fire the fatal shot?'
"If the accused fails to take advan
tage of her privilege to make a de
fense, under advice of her counsel, her
failure to do so must in no way be
held against her.
NEED TO PROVE MOTIVE.
"Much has been said relating to the
motive which actuated this defendant,
he continued. "The prosecution claims
that she shot the man 'because he had
cast her off as his mistress. But it ii
not necessary to prove motive to con
vict of murder. If it is shown that a
motive existed, then it tends to sup
port the circumstances. But to do this
motive must be proved, not imagined."
Before giving the case to the jury
Recorder Goff ruled on the requests tc
charge interposed In Miss Patterson's
bealf. He refused to submit one of
the requests, saying that it would be
a direction to the jury to acquit the
defendant. He told the jury, however,
that they might disregard the testI
mony of Julia Smith if they thought it
right to do so. He also refused to
charge requests concerning Pawnbrok
er Stern and the failure of the defense
to call J. Morgan Smith. He said that
claims on either side were not to be
considred.

Sidewalks Lined With Spectators.
Richmond, Va., Special.-Not in all
its eventful history has Richmond wit
nessed a more imposing demonstration
than that which marked Thursday the
funeral of General Fitzhugh. Lee.
Troops were pouring into the city all
night ,and the military contingent
which took part in the procession con
sisted of two full regiments of infan
try, the Seventh and Seventy-first, the
Richmond Light Infantry Blues, a bat
talion of artillery and seven detached
infantry companies, making in all
about 2,000 men. Added to this were the
veteran organizations, and nearly every
carriage in the city had been engaged
for the occasion. By nooa che business
section was practically deserted.
Around St. Paul's church, in which the
funeral services were held, there was a
dense throng, and from there to Hol
lywood the sidewalks along the line of
march were lined with spectators.
The church was densely crowded, the
throng representing all classes and all
walks of life. The services were con
ducted by Right Aev. A. M. Randolph,
bishop of the Southern Virginia Dio
cese, assisted by the Rev. Beverly
Tucker, rector of St. Paul's, Norfolk;
the Rev. Landon R. Mason, rector of
Grace church, this city, and the Rev.
E. E. Barnwell, acting rector of St.
Paul's. The floral tributes banked about
the casket were profuse and came from
all over the country. At the outside of
the casket, nearest the audience and at
the termination of the main aisle, the
Confederate battle flag in flowers
gleamed in its field, red with the cross
bars of blue bearing the stars of white.
A great wreath of white, elevated on a
standard of green, shed its perfume di
rectly above the bier. It was four feet
in diameter, elevated about six feet,
and was made of Easter lilies, white
roses, and white sweet peas. The de
signs were sent by the Veteran Cav
alry Association, Army of Northern
Virginia. The order of the procession
to Hollywood Cemetery was as fol

of the Federal, State and city govern
ment and of the Jamestown Exposition
Company. and distinguished persons
from without the Commonwealth.
There were 33 military companies in
line and the procession was more than
a mile long, taking about 35 min
utes to pass a given point, the carriages
in line being driven two abreast and
the military marching in double rank,
company front.
At the head of the escort rode ex
Governor Charles T. O'Ferrall, chief
marshal, with his aides, and conspic

Warfield, of Maryland, and the Attor
ney General of his State; the twe
United States Senators from Virginia,

J. W. Hayes. Major R. E. L. Michie,
and Col. J. C. Dempsey, United States
army, in full dress uniform and Lieu
tenant Governor Willard, representing
Governor Montague, who was prevent
ed by illness from being present.
The casket containing the body of
General Lee rested on a handsome cat
afalque built upon a caisson and was
covered with flowers and emblems of
the United States and the Confederacy.
The caisson was drawn by six black
horses with artillery harness and cov
ered by black netting. Holding the
bridle of each horse was a member of
the Howitzer battery. Behind the
caisson was led General Lee's own rid
ing horse, a thorough-bred black stal
lion with empty saddle and with the
upturned boots' and the sheathed
sword of the dead general. As the
body left the church, minute guns were
fired by a detachment of the Richmond
Howitzers In Capitol Square.
The streets along the line of march
were packed with people and at the
cemetery many thousands awaited the
coming of the procession. There has
not been such a popular outpouring
since the funeral of Jefferson Davis
some year ago, .and there were repre
sentatives of every part of Virginia

At the cemetery the committal ser
vice was read by Bishop Randolph. the

Vladivostock, Where Further Re-in
forcements wait.
St. Petersburg, By Cable.-Admiral
Nebogatoff's junction with Vice Ad
miral Rojestvensky is now considered
by the Admiralty as practically assur
ed, and hope for a successful issue in
the approaching struggle for mastery
of the sea is greatly encouraged
thereby.
Naval officers are prepared' to see
Rojestvensky lose half his convoy, but
in face of the united divisions it is
believed that Togo will accomplish lit
tle or nothing in the way of opposi
tion to the advance to Vladivostock
and that he must be content with'the
aid of, the army, to try and invest by
land and sea and make Vladivostock
another Port Arthur. If the fleet reach
es Vladivostock intact, however, naval
officers here claim that victory is won.
Although there is a little more than
100,000 tons of coal at Vladivostock,
the re-enforcement of the. fleet, by the
Cromoblo, Rossia and Bogatyr, and the
torpedo boats and sub-marines now in
the harbor there they claim that Ro
jestvensky could drive Togo off the sea
and leave Field Marshal Oyama's army
stranded in Manchuria.
Seizes Small ,Jap Vessel.
Tokio, By Cable.-Four Russian tor
pedo boat destroyers appeared west
ward of Hokkaiddo, off Subu, Saturday.
They seized and burned a small sailing
vessel and imprisoned the captain and
disappeared to the northwest. They
were evidently returning to Vladivos
tock. There is a possibility that they
have destroyed other small craft, al
though no reports to that effect have
been received.
The object of their visit is not clear.
It is thought that probably they hoped
to torpedo the Japanese patrol at night,
and it is also, suggested that the Vlad
ivostock vessels planned a diversion to
assist the fleet of Admiral Rojestven
sky.
