THE JURY DISAGREED. The jury hearing the case of Frank Steed, charged with assault and battery, heard Thursday before ’Squire 1 Friedßne of Geneva, failed to return ! a verdict by 11 o’clock Thursday I night and were excused. A mistake ' was made in Thursday night’s paper I in stating that Burt Webb’s trial was I held Thursday, the case being that of' Frank Steed. Instead Webb, who is in the Adams county jail, was taken to Geneva to serve only as a witness, tfn the Steed trial, it will be remem-; bered that the two men engaged in a fight at the Steed home last Monday evening, and George Zaggle, who interfered, was struck by Webb, his skull being fractured. Zaggle is now | in the Portland hospital, and Webb is being held in jail until Zaggle’s condi- ! tion can be determined, before a defi--1 nite charge will be u ide against Webb.
