C Alexander failed to reach an agreement, and was dis charged at 10 o'clock Sunday morn Jng On the final ballots the vote Btood 8 to 4 for acquittal. The attor neys for the state have not decided what they will do There were several serious Alterca tions during the consideration of the evidence in the jury room, which came very nearly resulting in blows The principal disagreement was be tween attorneys James Ε White and Robert F Ligenfelter and the cause of the personal feelings in the matter was a result of the wives of the jurors being permitted to visit them on Sun day Feb 7 On that day Bailiff Men denhall permitted Mesdames White. Brown, Daves. Theisting and Llngen felter to visit their husbands and talk to them in the presence of the bailiff During the course of the trial Mr White acted as spokesman for the ju ry when it was necessary to commun icate with the court Mrs White and Mrs Lingenfelter had conversed con cerning the trial before they saw their husbands and when they went to visit th>* jurors Mrs Lingenfelter. it is claimed, told her husband that Mrs White had told hyx that Mr White would tie foreman of the jury ami tha* he had been a warm personal friend of prosec utor Ruckelshaus. After th· jury resumed deliberation of the case Mr. Lingenfelter accused Mr White of having «orne into the case with his| in nd prejudiced against the defendant and told of the conversation with his! wife Hot words ensued and the mat j ter almost resulted in blows before the' interference of others stopped it. Lat er in th· day Mr White engaged in a! heated argument with jurors Brown | and Theising. who were in favor of acquittal, and was attacked w ith ! heart failure The perplexing question in the ι minds of the jurors, they say. was j whether Dr Alexander had guilty knowledge? <if the fact that the body | of Rose Neidlinger had been unlawful : day.
