NAN PATTERSON CASE. AN PATTERSONSlhIr(f trial has ended, like the trial a juror became ill and another trial, under the absurd rules of law, was rendered neces-r sary. In the second, as in this the third trial, the jury could not agree. Probably no jury can be empanneled that will agree at least on a conviction and the case might as" well be dismissed. The strong probability is that the actress killed Young, but this fact, if it be one, was not sufficiently proven, and never can -be. It is a case where the reasonable doubt comes in strongly, and one which, unless she confesses, will probably never be cleared Up.
