SW.Sf JJ Thaw Jury, After Long Deliberation, Disagrees (Continued smiled wanly at Thaw as he was led away again to the Tombs. They were permitted to apeak with him for a few moment to bid him be of good cheer, before he crossed the "bridge of Sighs' to the cell in the prison which until a few minutes before he had hoped that he was about to quit forever. Outside the big square of the criminal courts building, only a few hundred nersons vera imthered. Thousand had been there earlier, but police reinforce ments had arrived with Instructions to keep everyone moving and this had soon tired tbe idly curious into a willingness to depart. Inside the building in the gallery and overlooking the court and gathered along the corridors were group of more fortunate persons who had been able to make their way pa-st the vigilant police guards. Publie Kept Out The courtroom itself, was half empty. Only the newspaper men, the court at taches, and a few favored friends, were allowed to enter to hear the verdict. Justice Fitzgerald feared a demonstra tion Of some sort . should the general public be admitted and he gave strict orders against this. - It waa 4.25 o'clock when the jury filed into the court-room. Harry Thaw had been waiting for a summons to face the jurors ever since shortly after 10 o'clock this morning. He felt that today would bring the crisis and that either a ver dict would be reached or Justice Fitz gerald would discharge the jurors from any further consideration of the case. This was the general belief, and the only remarkable feature of the case was the dogged manner in which the jurors continued at their task and declined to ask to be, excused. . Justice Fitzgerald had determined to let them fight it out among themselves until they should call for assistance. This appeal came at 4.15 o'clock and then followed a hunt for counsel, both District-Attorney Jerome and the attor neys for the defendant having tempora rily left the building. When they ar rived, Justice Fitzgerald notified them of the jury's communication that a dis agreement seemed inevitable. .Everyone connected witn tne case seemed willing to accept the situation as offering no hope, and then followed the brief courtroom proceedings at which the disagreement was oublicly an nounced, tee jury dismissed and the pris oner remanded. Thaw Issues Statement. Thaw, when he had returned to the Tombs, prepared and gave out the fol lowing statement: I believe that every man in me jury, possessing average intelligence, except ing possibly Mr. Bolton, comprehended the weight of evidence and balanced it for acquittal. All my family bid me goodbye with courage. I trust (D. V.) we may Keep wen." To his attorneys Thaw said ne was deeply disappointed. ' "But I could hardly expect anything else in view of the events of the past few days," he added. Earlier in the day Thaw had given out another statement in which he said he had desired that his fate should be judged upon the "written laws of the State of New York." He declared that the evidence adduced had convinced even District-Attorney Jeroms of his innocence under the strict letter of the law. Attorney Delmas, who conducted Thaw's case in court, and who in mak ings his summing up address to the jury, appealed almost airectiy - ro ine "unwritten law" or "dementia Ameri cana," as he termed it, was not in court today when the jury made its report, and was discharged. Tonight Mr. Hartrldge, the attorney of record and warm personal friend of Thaw, gave out the following statement: t "Mr. Thaw has already expressed himself desirous of a trial under and in accordance with the laWs of the State of New York.: I can add nothing to that except to say that I entirely agree with him and hope that we shall have CHILD KILLED WHILE TRT1NS TO BBABB STREET H (Continued From' First Pag.) car. 1A person wno war nearest aeem to think that though the ball was in the street he caw the ear and at tempted to board it. About two hours after the accident occurred several piece of - bone were picked up on tho spot where the boy was struck. The funeral atrrioes will be held at th residence at eleven o'clock thia morn ing and tbe body will be taken to Franklinsville on th two o'clock train for interment. General Manager Gonzenbach, of the Greensboro Electric Company, mad an investigation and acided that none i the emnloTes of th oomMttY were re sponsible for th accident. Street car No. 2 was th one that ran over the child. One other child was run over and killed by this oar on Ashboro street about two years ago. REVIVAL AT FEDOTDS' CHURCH COKES TO CLOSE : T)i revival which has been in pro gress at the Friends church for some time cam to a close last night. The meeting has been a most interesting one and the Rev. Mr. KHtrell has preached a number of thoughtful and helpful ser mons. - Mr. Kittrell will go to alt.

Mrs. Evelyn Nesbit Thaw sid: 'T can't understand it. I don't see why they could not come to some agree ment." A reporter said to Mrs. Thaws "The jury stood seven to five for conviction." "I don't believe it," she cried emphat ically. "They ought td have acquitted him on the evidence." , Mrs. William Thaw, mother of the prisoner, declined to sny anything for publication at this time. , The story of the proceedings in the jury-room as tliey were learned tonight far outranked in interest the brief court proceedings, which brought the famous trial to a close. It developed that the jury had considered everything con nected with the case except "the unwrit ten law." Basing their judgment en tirely upon the evidence they voted cither for or against murder in the first degree when . they cast their first bal lot. The first vote was eight to four in favor of conviction. Then the jury tried to reach a com mon ground upon a verdict of man slaughter in the first degree, the punish ment for which Tangos to a maximum of twenty years imprisonment. The men in favor of acquittal largely on the ground of insanity, it is said would not change their ballots and in the end won over to their side one of the eight who favored conviction. During the nearlv fortv-eight hours of deliberation, only eight ballots were cast. The Final Ballot. The final ballot taken just before the jury reported its disagreement in court, was as loiiows: For conviction of murder iu the first degree: Deming B. Smith, foreman; George Waft", N'o. 2; Charles II. Feeke, Xo. 3; Harry C. Brearley, Xo. C; Charles D. Newton, Xo. 8; Joseph B. Bolton. Xo. 11, and Bernard Orestman !o., 12. For acquittal on the ground of in sanity: Messrs. Oscar A. Pink, No. 4; Henry C. Haruev, Xo. 5; Malcolm S. Fraser, Xo. 7; Wilbur F. Steel, No. 9, and John S. Dennee, No. 10. The sessions of the jury were not al together pleasant and peaceful. : There were many stormy arguments end at one time charges of inconsistency and breaking faith with the orders of the court were made, but at no point of the deliberations did the foreman lose con trol of the situation. He successfully held the twelve men in check and was tho first to suggest, when it was 6een that there was no possibility of a verdict being reported, that they report the matter to Justico Fitzgerald and leave the further disposition of the case to his judgment. What Jurors Say. 'Wilbur F. Steele, juror No. 9, said: "We considered insanity in many phases, but did not give the subject of wronged womanhood any lengthy debate: in fact, scarcely any. The question which was considered at unusual: length -' was whether Thaw was insane at the mo ment ho shot Stanford White, and whether at that moment he was respon sible for his actions." Juror Joseph Boltou said: "There was no question of tho unwritten law or of 'dementia Americana' in our delibera tions. We considered the case from a purely legal standpoint. We were not swayed by emotions." "The jury when considering the ease took no stock in hra in storms,'" said Juror Charles H. Feeke. "We did not pay an undue amount of attention to the testimony bf alienists, either," Mr. Feeke added. . It was after Mr. Delmas had read some of Thaw's letters, that the latter decided that there was a reasonable doubt as to Thaw's sanity. Dennee then joined the four men who' had stood for acquittal on the grounds of insan ity. FI GOUBT.

This Is a bona fide claim against the state, and is a question for the judi ciary to settle. Were tho atorney-gen-eral to take upon himself the authoritv and responsibility of passing upon this claim, it is evident that it would be his duty to pass upon and determine each and every claim against tlie state, and this is not a part of h duty.

In Sarah Turner, s negress,' residing in that section of the city known as "Frog Town," was severely cut late yesterday evening by a razor in the hands of Cas well Johnson, a negro who has given the police no little trouble during- the last few years. One of the wounds was on the side of the woman's face, running from the top of her ear to her moutn, and tne otiier, startiug on tne top of her shoulder, extended th full length ot uer back. Dr. Turner was summoned to. attend the injured woman and found it neces sary to take thirteen stitches in her back. It is said that Johnson went to the home of the Turner woman a few days. ago and after burning all of her cloth ing, beat her into insensibility. Since that time ho has been dodging and all euons on me pan or ine ponce 10 lo cate him have been futile. Johnson is the man who several months ago was cut by Robert Dulan, the negro who was killed a few nights ago near the plant of the Hardwood Manufacturing Company, and whose mysterious death , is proving a puzzle to the ponce. The numerous fights and murders which have occurred during the liist few days have proved alarming to at least a part of the Greensboro negroes, one of whom wrs heard to remark a few nights ago that "Dis town sho' is gittin superstitious and ef'n a man wants to feel safe, he had better escape to his home, v Johnson was arrested at 1.30 o'clock this-.- (Saturday) morning by Officers Joues and Marsh.

The hall, it is said, will seat 1,000 people, jud there were few Nunoccupied seats last night.

All who attended were well pleased and the young ladies who participated were deservine of the nraise thev mined. . Each of the leading firms of the city was represented in a unique manner, each representative wearing an appro priate costume.

The scene of the carnival was in the palace of the Queen of Progress, who, seated on a white throne, around which were stationed her attendants, heard the different merchant of . Greensboro as they talked of their business. First there was the srand march of the representatives, to give the audi ence an opporunity to single1 out the different firms. Then the queen ap peared, attended by her subjects, "At tention to Business," "Energy," "Perse verance" and "Courtesy," and before her throne, the representatives talked business. The manner in which the -dif ferent characters presented their wares was a good object-lession for sales men. One of the most interesting features of the program was the reading of tho essays, which won the first, second and third prizes offered by the Vogue Shoe Company. The subject was "Why is Vogue an Appropriate mnie lor a bhoe Store!" Thn essavs were road bv Miss Flieda Johnson, who : represented the Vogue firm. The prizes were three expensive pairs of shoes.

When the stomach is unable to digest th food because of its beinir eaten too fast or because it 'is of the Tndigestsble eort, part of it lies in ths stomach and ferments, producing ga ana Daeiena. These bacteria (microbes) then manu facture more or less poison which is absorbed into the blood along with what little food is already digested, snd the result is a Ibad headache, irritability, dullness of intellect and lack of energy. ,i .
