Then the twelve men began n discussion of the evidence which lasted for nearly an hour. At the end of that time the Brat formal ballot was cast. It was a written ballot and was unanimous for conviction. The Jurymen issued this statement to the Associated Press immediately after their dismissal by the court: "In Justice to Juror Burns it should be explained that he did not vote fur acquittal because he was dissatisfied with the evidence or 'believed there was any doubt of the defendant's guilt.

On the wings of rumor spread the report the jury has reached a verdict," and even before Judge Dunne reached the synagogue, hurried thither by automobile, nearly a thousand men had gathered in Bush street and were clamoring at the doors to be let in. They were kept out until the twelve men had been brought down and nestbis ed. As Judge Dunne entered chambers by a rear way the crowd surged into the building froiuthe front. Then there wen another wnit of live minutes. The mayor had not arrived. He came pulling up presently in his red touring car, Metnon and Falrall, and Barrett and Drew accompanying him. They pressed down the aisle and quietly took tthelr accustomed seals at that end ofthe counsel table for ihe statement of the jury. Clerk McManus stepped to the door of the chamtiers and announced: AH ready for you, judge. Theyre here. Judge Dunne took the bench at once, walking with a light, springy step.
