After the jury resumed deliberation of case Mr. Lingenfelter accused Mr. White of having come into it with his mind prejudiced sgainst the defendant and told the conversation with his wife.

Semstor Wickham said: “leet ue prepare to place the statue of General Lee in the capitol ss is our right and is now our duty. Close by it will | stand New Jersey's tribute to General Philtp Keerney, ope of the most moble fig- ures in the hall. The ties of & personmal | triendship 1o life and in desth essociste | the memories of the two.
