NOTHER MISTRIAL! ry in Nan Patterson Case Failed to Agree on a Verdict E SAME RESULT AS FORMERLY ter 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- ' dccessors to Reach a Verdict. P ? New York. Special.?At 1:30 o'clock Thursday morning the jury in the case )r Nan Patterson, tried for the third Btne on the charge of murdering Caesar oung. was called into the court room 2*' Recorder Goff. When the 12 men I were in their places and the court offl v iuis uuu an arnvoi, tne recorder asked why the defendant had not been brought into court. A deputy sheriff replied that she had been feeling 111 and had retired, but was then being dressed. After a wait of 12 minutes. Miss l'atterson appeared looking pale and in a highly nervous state. "Gentlemen, have you been able to reaeli an agreement?" asked the recorder of the jury. "No, sir," replied the foreman. "Is there any question of law or i evidence in which I can instruct you? i Is there any way in which the court can help you?" The foreman looked for an instant | at his fellow men. then turning to the ; recorder, said: "No. sir, I don't believe you can help us." "Then you will retire to reconsider the matter." JURY DISCHARGED. The jury tiled out and the court room was cleared. Recorder Goff re- i mained in his chamber ready to re- < ceive a verdict if rendered or to fur- ! ther Instruct the jury. Upon being as- ! sured that there was no chance of an i agreement, he discharged the jury. While the jury considering her case was still out. Nan Patterson sat in her cell in the Tombs, buoyed up by the i hope that at the end of their deliberation 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 first ballot j 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 i the court rooms for articles of cloth- i ing worn by Caesar Young at the time ! he met his death, and the skeleton I which was exhibited during the trial | by the prosecution in its endeavor to j show that the victim of the tragedy could not have inflicted the wound himself. At 1.3a the Jury, recorder and other court officials had assembled in the court room. Recorder Golf demanded to know why Nan Patterson was not present, when he was informed that she was ill. Ho gave orders directing ti.at she lie produced immediately. CHARGE TO THE JURY. Recorder Goff in his charge to the Jury said: "You must not think that, because of the humble position of this woman, you should not give her the same con sideration as if she occupied a more exalted position in society. Whatever her position, she is entitled to the same j legal rights as the most prominent and most conspicuous. The recorder described the two degrees of murder and manslaughter in | the first and second degrees, which, he 1 | said, he apprehended by the request to I charge, was thought by counsel to be j applicable in the case, and proceeded: ) "I understand that there is no claim j j on the part of the defense that if tho defendant committed this homicide it ! was either justifiable or excusable. I alao understand that tho defense j claims that the crime was murder in j the first degree or nothing. But you ; are not bound to accept the arguments , of counsel as to the nature of tills | crime. You are the judges of tho facts, if there was murder, and in what do j gree. The crucial question is, 'Did the man kill himself or did this defendant I lire me iniai snot."' "If tho accused fails to fake advan-1 tago of her privilege to make a defense, 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. Hut if ts , not necessary to prove motive to convict of murder. If it is ilmwn that a j motive existed, then it tends to sup! port the circumstances. Put to do this motive must he proved, not imagined."

Kin you preach as well as you kin shoot?" "Much better," responded the bishop, smilingly. "Bo sure and come some Sunday. I'll see that you get a good seat in front." The old man availed himself of the invitation thus extended. At the eonelusion of the service he quickly sought out ids friend, the bishop, and grasped hint l?v the hand.
