THAW JURY DISAGREED.
Seven Stood for Murder and
Five for Acquittal.
Carnegie Greets a Namesake Negrc
Gets Naval Appointment Train
Plunges Into Lake significance ot
Arbor Day Opening of the Great
Peace Congress.
Hopelessly divided seven for 8
verdict of guilty of murder In the
first degree und five for acquittal od
the ground of insanity the Jury which
since the 23rd of lust January had
been trying Harry K. Thaw reported
lute on Friday after 47 hours and elghl
minutes of deliberation, that it could
not possibly agree upon a verdict.
The 12 nioii were promptly dis
charged by .Justice Fitzgerald, who de
clared that ho, too, believed theli
task hopeless. Thaw was remanded
to the Tombs without ball to await a
(second trlul on the charge of having
murdered Stanford White, the noted
architect.
When this new trial would take
place no one connected with the case
could express an opinion. District
Attorney Jerome declared that there
were many other persons accused of
homicide awaiting trial and that Thaw
would have to take his turn with the
rest. As to a possible change ol
venue, both the district attorney and
counsel for Thaw declared they would
make no such move.
Thaw, when he had returned to the
Tombs, prepared and issued the fol
lowing statement:
"I believe that every man In tne
Jury possessing average Intelligence,
excepting possibly Mr. Bolton, com
prehended the weight of evidence and
balanced It for acquittal. All my
family bid me good bye with courage.
I trust (D. V.) we may all keep well."
To his attorneys Thaw said he was
deeply disappointed. "But I could
hardly expect anything else In view ol
the events of the past few days," he
added.
Earlier In the day Thaw had Issued
another statement In which he sail
he had desired that his fate should be
judged upon the "written" laws of the
Btate of New York. He declared that
he believed that the evidence adduced
had convinced even District Attorney
Jerome of his innocence under the
strict letter of the law.
The first vote vas 8 to 4 In favor of
conviction. Then the 12 tried to
reach unanimity upon a verdict of
manslaughter in the first degree, the
maximum punishment for whlcn Is 20
years imprisonment. The men In fa
vor of acquittal largely on the ground
of Insanity, it is said would not
change their ballots and in the end
won over one of the eight who had fa
vored conviction.
During the nearly 48 hours of delib
eration' only eight ballots were cast.
The jury spent the two night sessions
dozing In their chairs.
The final ballot taken just before
the Jury reported its disagreement in
court was as follows:
For conviction of murder In the
first degree Messrs. Demlng B.
Smith, foreman; George Pfatf, No. 2;
Charles II. Fecke, No. 3; Harry C.
Brearly, No. C; Charles D. Newton,
No. 8; Joseph B. Bolton, No. 11, and
Bernard Gerstman, No. 12.
For acquittal on the ground of in
sanity Messrs. Oscar A. Pink, No. 4;
Henry C. Harney, No. 6; Malcolm S.
Eraser, No. 7; Wilbur F. Steele, No. 9,
and John S. Denne, No. 10.
Mr. Bolton is the juror whose wife
died during the trial while the jury
was being kept under lock and key.
Laird Greets His Namesake.
The proudest boy In Pittsburg on
Thursday was Andrew Carnegie Korn-
m:m, son ot Mr. and Mrs. Charles
F. Kornman, of 219 Meyhan ave
nue, Oakland, near Pittsburg, who was
given a royal reception by the great
man after whom he was named. Mrs.
Cainegle joined In the greeting and
made a great fuss over the fine little
lad. He was introduced by Mr. Carne-
gle to most of the distinguished guests
at the reception In the magnificent
new institute building.
Young Kornman was named after
the great Ironmaster tinder notable
circumstances 12 years ago. At that
time the borough of Mansfield and
some of the built-up section adjoining
was incorporated under the name of
Carnegie, now one of the most thrlv
lng towns of Western Pennsylvania.
A big celebration Inaugurated the
new borough and a gold medal was of
fered for the first male child born in
the town. On March 4, 1894, shortly
after the Incorporation of the borough
Mrs. Charles F. Kornman, wife of the
proprietor of tho Hotel Kornman at
that time, presented her husband with
a flue big baby boy. He got the
medal and was promptly named An
drew Carnegie Kornman. An inter
esting letter from Mr. Carnegie soon
followed.
Ymiug Kornman, with his father,
who Is a wellknown Pltsburg hotel
man, was In Hue at the reception
Thursday morning. When they
reached Mr. and Mrs. Carnegie the
laird was told who the lad was. He
grasped the little fellow by the hand
aud affectionately greeted him.
Sudden Death of James H. Eckels,
James II. Eckels, president of the
Commercial National bank of Chi
i:igo and formerly comptroller of
!e currency, died at his home Sun
rlny of heart disease. The death of
.r K'Kels occu'ied apparently while
he was asleep.
James Ucrron Eckels was born at
Princeton, 111., on Nov. 22, 1138, and
most of his life was spent in Illinois.
He was graduated from the Albany,
N. Y., law school In 1880. He prac
ticed law at Ottawa, III., until ap
pointed by President Cleveland comp
troller of the currency in 1893.
During the agitation of the currency
question he became prominent as an
advocate of the gold standard. Al
ways a Democrat, he became affiliated
in 1890 with the Gold Standard Demo
crats. He was comptroller of th(
currency until the end of President
Cleveland's term in 1897, when he be
came president of the Commercial Na
tlonal bank. ,
Train Plunged Into a Lake.
Fifteen persons were killed and
twenty were injured In the wreck ol
a Canadian Pacific passenger trait
on Wednesday night near Chapleau,
300 miles east of Fort William, Ont
The train was thrown from the track
by a broken rail and plunged down an
embankment Into a small lake. Some
of the injured passengers were pinned
in the wreckage and slowly burned tc
death, while others met death in more
merciful form in the waters of the
lake.
When the train struck the broken
rail five tourist cars near the middle
of the train broke loose and rolled
down the embankment. One of the
cars was entirely submerged. The
other four stopped closer to the shore
and were only partly covered by wa
ter. The latter caught fire and the
passengers imprisoned in a mass ot
wreckage were burned to death.
One man was pinned by the feet be
twen two coaches and slowly roasted
to death, although the rescuers work
ed until their clothing caught fire in
an effort to free him In time to save
his life.
Opening of Peace Congress.
A choral service, a fitting prelude
to the first National Arbitration and
Peace congress, that will hold sessions
Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, was
held In Carnegie hall, New York, Sun
day night, and if numbers and en
thusiasm count for anything, the pro
moters of the peace movement must
have been gratified.
Around the back and sides ot the
stage on which were the speakers and
the 300 voices of the Oratorio society,
was draped a great white curtain on
which were golden stars. Along il
were grouped American banners,
flags and emblems with an arrange
ment at the center where there were
white, banners bearing the legend ol
the peace fraternity, "Peace for all
nations." Over this the word
"Peace" flared in lighted electric
bulbs.
After several selections by the Or
atorlo society accompanied by the full
orchestra led by Frank Damrosch the
great audience rose and sang the
hymn "God ot Our Fathers."
Woodruff's Private Road Refused.
State Forest, Fish and Game Commis
sioner Whipple announces he has de
nied the application of ex-Lieutenant
Governor Timothy L. Woodruff for the
opening of a highway across state land
to permit access to Mr. Woodruff's
property in Township 4, Totten and
Crossfield purchase, Hamilton county,
near Racquette lake, where Kamp
KUlkare Is located.
A first application made by Mr.
Woodruff upon the ground of public
necessity was denied, on the ground
that Mr. Woodruff had access to his
property through another highway.
The question has never been settled
by the courts and the order of the
commissioner will undoubtedly be re
viewed.

MANCHURIA EVACUATED.
Yestetday Was Limit of Time
of Actual Transfer.
China Recovera Rossesslon of That
Vast Domain Baron Goto, Manager
of Manchurian Railway 6ays Last
Vestige of War Has Been Removed.
Open to All Nations.
St. Petersburg, April Id. The ex
piration of the 18 months limit for the
(vncuatlon of Manchuria by the Rus
sian and Japanese troops was marked
by the nomination yesterday of Rus
sian consuls at Klrin and Tsltlshar,
the last two towns in Manchuria to
pass from Russian hands to the Chi
nese civil administration. The evacu
ation of the Russian troops was com
pleted March 21, almost a month
ahead of the specified date.
An official of the foreign office, com
menting on Russia's premature with
drawal, said:
"It is a complete justification ot
Russia's good faith in fulfilling the
treaty. It was insinuated when the
treaty was signed that Russia never
would abandon Manchuria but would
find some means of evading her obli
gations. Rut the expiration of the
stipulated period finds not a single
s61dier of the Russian military estab
lishment left In Manchuria. The rail
road guards, approximately 8,000 men,
as provided for by the treaty, are com
manded by General Chlcagoff and are
attached to the ministry of railroads
and not to the war ministry. The
functions of the guards are confined
strictly to the railroad. The policing
of the country and the repression of
the Chinese bandits have been turned
over to the Chinese troops.
"Though the final results of the
Russian negotiations with China for
the re-establlshment of the Chinese
customs houses and with Japan for
treaties of commerce and fisheries,
which will round out the Portsmouth
treaty, have not been attained, both
negotiations are proceeding satisfac
torily."
Count Wltte, the negotiator of the
Portsmouth treaty, has now with
drawn almost entirely from public
life, except in the minor role of a
member of the council of the em
pire. When questioned regarding the
evacuation of Manchuria, he said he
was out of touch with diplomatic af
fairs, but the prompt evacuation of
the Chinese territory was no surprise
to him. He always had been con
vinced that Russia's promises would
be promptly and fully carried out.
JAPANESE TROOPS GONE.
China Expresses Thanks In a Note to
the Tokio Government.
Toklo, April 16. The work of with
drawing the Japanese troops from
Manchuria was completed April 8 and
China has therefore expressed her
hearty appreciation of the fact In a
note to the Japanese government.
Baron Goto, to the management of
whose company the Manchuria rail
road was transferred April 1, In an in
terview said:
"The last vestige of war in Man
churia has now been removed. Fair
play. Is my guiding principle. In pro
moting the peaceful development of
Manchuria, through which our rail
way runs, national differences will be
entirely ignored. Manchuria will be
made a field for the fair competition
of all nations. In order that we may
carry out this principle, I crave pa
tience on the part of those interested.
Romember that the management of
the road was only transferred to us
on the first of the present month. The
allowance of sufficient time will in
sure the realization of our plans and
we drad nothing more than impa
tient interference."
Leniency to Court Martlaled Admiral.
St. Petersburg, April 16. Rear Ad
miral NebogatofT, who commanded the
Russian third Pacific squadron, which
surrendered at the battle of the Sea
of Japan, who was tried by court mar
tial and sentenced to death but whose

Imprisonment In a fortress, has be
gun to serve his term in the fortress
of St. Peter and St. Paul. He was al
lowed to choose the time for the com
mencement of his sentence, has been

Thomas and his father-in-law, Levi
Reynolds, who are charged with kill

VISITORS THRONG INSTITUTE.
Thousands Come From Out of Town
to See the Wonders.
Pittsburg, April 1C Thirty thous
and visitors, of all classes and ages,
passed , ihiough the new Carnegie In
stitu ' Sunday afternoon In the four
hour, it was open.
All of the departments were not
open, and yet It took a long walk to
get through what wa actually on
view. Owing to the vast spaces In
the building and the constant moving
of the crowds it was hard to make a
close ewtimate of their numbers, but
President W. N. Frew or the board of
rrustees said 30,000 was conservative.
Hundreds of visitors were at the
doors awaiting the opening hour, and
shortly after the visitors came in a
constant stream. About 3:30 o'clock
tho regular police guards and other at
taches were unable to handle the
crowd, and a telephone message was
sent to the Oakland police station,
asking that several policemen be sent
to , the library. Sergeant "Toge"
O'Nei! sent eight men and Inspector
Milton nniley, Capt. Robert Emmett
and Lieutenant William J. Boyle ar
rived at the library soon after.
All of the main departments of the
Institute were open for the Inspection
of tho visitors. The art gallery, hall
of statuary, bronze room and museum
were the chief centers' of attraction,
but the visitors seemed to be there to
see everything and every nook and
corner was Invaded. The chief at
traction appeared to be the great skel
eton of the dlploducus. Hundreds of
persons stood around the great pile of
bones and gazed In wonderment with
eyes and mouth wide open.
The relief map of Pittsburg and vi
cinity, made under the direction of the
Pittsburg Chamber of Commerce, was
another exhibit that had people five
or six deep around It all afternoon.
This map and case was exhibited at
the St. LouIb Exposition and cost
about $15,000. The map covers the
territory from Duquesne to Corapolls.
The magnificent gift of photographs,
pictures and elaborately bound books
from his majesty, Emperor William of
Germany, was not on view. The gifts
have not been arranged In the place
selected for them.
COMPARATIVE COST OF LIGHTING
In Carnegie Institute, $80,000; In State
Capitol, $2,000,000.
Pittsburg, April 16. The fine chand
eliers in fact, all the lighting fix
tures, inside and out In Carnegie In
stitute cost only $80,000, while those
of the new state Capitol at Harris
burg cost $2,000,000. An object les
son was pointed by President W. N.
Frew of the institute In the following
conversation with a friend:
Mr. Frew, pointing to the splendid
chandeliers These and all the other
lighting fixtures of the Institute cost
only $80,000, while those of the state
Capitol cost $2,000,000.
The Friend But the Capitol is
much larger.
Mr. Frew No, It Is not much larger.
I hava seen both buildings, but If it
were 10 times as large as the institute
the cost of lighting it, compared wtith
that of the Institute, should be only
$800,000; that would leave $1,200,000.
The friend could not see how it
would be possible for state politicians
to save so much money aud the argu
ment was dropped.
May Be General Strike.
Philadelphia. April 16. Following
the vote of 5,(100 union carpenters here
to go on strike for higher wages on
May 1, 500 union painters have also
voted to enforce their demand for an
increase of 1 cent an hour. The plumb
ers, electricians and lathers are
also expected to adopt strike resolu
tions. Before going on strike the
unions will make a demonstration with
a night parade on April 27. Nearly
every union In town will be repre
sented and 30,000 men have already
voted to participate.
50,803 More Births Than Deaths.
Harrisburg, April 16. The state
health department has finished com
piling records of the work of the
bureau of statistics, which show that
during 1906 there were registered with
this bureau 17.1,815 births, 123,042
deaths and 87,757 cases classed as
"'communicable diseases." The fact
that there were 50,803 more births
than deaths during the year furnishes
Incontrovertible proof that "race fili
cide" is not popular In Pennsylvania.
