PHILADELPHIA, April 21.—The case of ex—UnitedSt'ates Senator Quay was placed in the hands of the jury prompt- Iy at 3 o’clock yesterday afternoon, and no verdict being reached by 10 o'clock at night the jury was locked up until morning. There was no intimation other than mere rumor as to the atti- tude of the jury. The generally ex- pressed opinion of those who have fol— lowed the trial since its beginning on Monday of last week is that the ver— dict will be an acquittal. Many, however, look for a disagree- ment. There are but fewvwho express the belief that a verdict of guilty will be given. Yesterday‘s proceedings were confined entirely to argument and speeches by counsel. the defense deciding to present no testimony. Mr. Watson began the day by requesting that the case be withdrawn from the jury and a. verdict of not guilty rendered. He contended that the commonwealth had utterly failed to ‘make out a case against Mr. Quay. Judge Biddle determined the is- sues were,‘ those for a jury to decide, and he ruled that it be gone through with in the usual way. Mr. Shields here announced-the defense’s intention to take no testimony, and under the rules of the court he thus obtained the priv- Ilege of making but one, the last. speech to the jury. District Attorney Bother— mel Spoke for one hour, Mr. Shields fol- lowed for one hour and three-quarters, and Judge Biddle charged the jury in nine minutes. May Have Been a Man. CANTON, 0., April 21.—The defense for Mrs, George yesterday put on the stand a witness who testified that she saw a man in a long black mackin- tosh and cape, wearing a white sailor hat, passing her home, which is on one of the routes from the Althouse home to the center of the city, soon after the shooting of Saxton. This evidence was intended to corroborate a witness who testified on Wednesday that a ”man in black” was seen approaching the Alt- house home. The defense has already nearly concluded its case.
