The Miller County Liberal VO L. X. MISTRIALFORTHAW The Jury Failed to Agree and is Discharged. DISAPPOINTMENT GREAT Seven Jurors Were for Conviction and Five for Acquittal—Salacious Rot Must Be Rehearsed , wcw York special says: Hope lessly divided—seven for a verdict of guilty of murder in the first degree and five tor aeauittal on the ground of insanity—the jury Which since January 23 has been trying Harry K. Thaw reported Hriday afternoon after forty-seven hours and eight minutes of deliberation that it couid . not possibly agree. The twelve men were promptly discharged by Justice Fitzgerald, who declared that he, too believed their task hopeless. Thaw was remanded to the Tombs with out bail to await a second trial on the charge of having murdered ford White. When this new trial will take place no one connected with the case could express an opinion. District Attor ney Jerome declared that there were manv other Persons accused of ho*"*' cide awaiting trial ata -Thaw would have to take* llls turn As to a po«>role change of venue both the diArict attorney and counsel for Thaw declared they would make no such move. Thaw’s attorneys will have a conference with the prisoner to decide upon their next step. They may make an early appli cation for bail. Mr. Jerome said that he will’ strenuously oppose it. He added that as seven of the jurors had voted for “guilty, ’ his opposition probably would be successful. In that event, Thaw has another long summer before him in the city pris on, for his case on the already crowd ed criminal calendar cannot possi bly be reached uiuif fall. .. » .The scenes attending the announce ment by the jury’ of its inability to agree were robbed.,^ ’“pjtricakyjl' the general bclie> Be ntiment,-tUp juT ‘ ws"cvul<l*rua&d -to other repo¥tv Thaw, surrounded by the members of his family—the devoted aged mother, the pale yc.ing wife, the ti tled sister —the countess of Yarmouth —Mrs. George Carnegie and Edward and Josiah Thaw, the brothers, re ceived the news in absolute silence. Thaw’s wife gripped her husband s hands tightly as the jury foreman spoke, and then when he sank down by her side, she tried to cheer nim as best she coma by swing that she believed he would now be aui r -.-.t e( j to bail, and that a second jury would surely set him free. The mother, the sisters and the brothers, pale and well-nigh exhaust ed by their tedious, nerve-racking wait for a verdict, smiled weakl at Thaw as he was led away a-.aii'/to the Tombs. They were pp^ i!le<l to speak with him for a moment 6 to bid him be of cheer befcre he crossed the ’’’ ,dge of sighs " 10 the cell, whp* l until a few minutes before he hoped he was about 10 quit fr.

Thousands had been there earlier in the day, but ilte police had instructions to keep every one moving, aud this soon tired the idly curious. Thaw, when he had returned to the Tombs, gave out the following statement: “I believed that every man in the jury possessing average intelligence, excepting possibly Mr. Bolton, com tho ■ c o balanced it for acquittal. All of my family bid me goodby with courage. I trust (D.

TILLMAN BIFFS NORTHEN South Carolina Senator Replies in Caloric Fashion to Criticism of Georgia Ex-Governor. Senator B. R. Tillman, of South Carolina, spoke at the Sandersville, Ga., auditorium under the auspices of the Lyceum Association, and in the course of his speech replied to the charges made by ex-Governor Northen and defended himself, ex plaining the connection in which the were used- meet Governor Northen in debate at any time he might designate and would let a Georgia jury try the is sues between them. He said: “You have had in the past a man whom you honored with the office of governor, who of late has sought some Notoriety, and pushed himself to the front in the matter which looks to the. adjustment of this momentous question, as what shall be done and how it shall be done to safe guard Anglo-Saxon civilization, and this man go ng up and down Geor gia, a self-aj pointed apostle or some thing, I don ’■ know what aud 1 don't care, I don meddle-with Georgia's affairs.

I do not care to in dulge in personalities, 1 simply call attention to a charge h ■ makes there “that with the oath of office fresh on my lips, I said so ami so. ” What I did say, what I haqv .said, what 1 may say now, audit epeat, what 1 have said in the sei j and lam n "Vs to en.orce th’c o would lead a muj; to lyt*h «ny man," '"LlJtfck or white, who ra’.ished a wo man, black or white.” He leaves out everything except what he wanted. Now that has been termed by Shakespeare "a lie by indi rection, or a lie 1 on:.\>ion.

It took just fifteen minutes iu tho United States court at Atlanta, Ga, Tuesday afternoon for the jury in the Coleman-Zeigler - Brewster - Robinson conspiracy case to bring in a verdict of not guilty. And within another five min the defendants had received the co. gratuiatfons of the few friends abo’tt aud the court, room was empty. Tho case went 'lie Jury .vJth-u:t argument, but it was a day of stren uous work by the attorneys for both the government and for the defend ants. When court convened in th morning the defense had the wit- ' ness stand and during the day tw i 1 of the Messrs. Cole, -Mr. Zeigler an i > ■’’’ son were iilac-.u on tj. : t stand. Mr Zeigler admitted the ex istence of the warrants and told of the arrest of the runaways aud of their return to Newnan.

The closest attention was given Judge Newnan by the jury, by tho defendants, by the attorneys for both sides and by the small gathering with'- in the court room as he instructed the twelve men in the law. Despite the verdict, Colonel Henley and Colonel Sheppard, who came from Florida to assist in the -pros ecution, because District Attorney Carter Tate was disqualified, on ac count of his relationship with one ot the Messrs.
