WALTON JURY HAS DISAGREED Youth Accused of ; Shooting J Policeman Will Have to " Stand Fourth Trial. Charles W. Walton will have to stand a- fourth trial on the charge of shoot ing Policeman Olaus Nelson. 'The jury in the case after being out since yes terday morning reported to Judge ODay at 2 o'clock this afternoon that it could not agree upon a verdict. The jurors stood seven for conviction and five for acquittal until this morning when they became six for conviction and six for acquittal. The district attorney will try young Walton again tomorrow morning, making three trials wttbin one week. The case was given to the Jury about 4:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon after arguments by Deputy District Attorneys Haney and Adams for the state and Henry St Rayner for the defense, fol lowed by Judge Cleland's Instructions. It was generally believed that the state had made out a much stronger case than It did last Friday and Saturday, when the jury disagreed, si to six. For this reason there would have been no sur prise had the jury returned a verdict of frullty last night but late In the evening t became apparent that the jurors were far from agreement Judge Cleland di rected that the jury be locked up for the night. No word from the Jury room this morning, and the It men consid ering the case were left to deliberate all morning without being called into court It la reported that those who held out against conviction last night and today argued that Walton has already been punished. They took into consid eration the fact that Patrolman Nelson did not die from his wounds, that the money taken from the conductor of the streetcar was returned to the streetcar company and tlat Walton has been for more than three years In the peniten tiary. His youth and his talents as a musician were pointed out as reasons for giving him a chance at this time to reform, It is said, without sending htm back to prison for another long term. All of these things said to have had so much weight with certain Jurors are things they were sworn not to take into consideration In their deliberations. If Walton Is Anally convicted this time the period he has already served will count for nothing. It cannot be credited on hia new term, but the court ! in passing judgment might take into consideration the fact that he has spent several years In prison on the same charge. The penalty for the crime charged against Walton is not less than one year nor more than seven. Besides the cnarge or assault on Of ficer Nelson, Walton faces another trial on the highway robbery accusation. It was oh this that he was sentenced to 20 years over three years ago. The dis position of the robbery charge will doubtless depend in large part upon the final outcome In the assault case, if he Is ultimately convicted and receives substantial sentence in the case twice triea within the last week , the hold-up case against htm may be dismissed. SUES FOR WHAT HE GOT BUT DIDN'T GET Alleging that after he had been given an Interest In a stevedoring firm and had been employed to manage the busi ness his employers discontinued the business and Informed him that he was no longer needed. C. F. Klttgaard has begun suit in the circuit court to re cover $3,076 from Henry Rothchlld and W. J. Jones, members of the former firm of Rothchlld ft Co. Klltgaard says that he entered Into an agreement with the defendants on March 4, by which he was to pay $2,600 for a half Interest in the firm. He says it was agreed that he should have 90 days in which to put up the money, and that the partnership should run until September at least, to be continued and made permanent If both aides were sat isfied at that time. He says he was also to b employed as manager at $176 per month. In April, he asserts, he offered to pay over the $2,600 agreed upon, but the defendants then refused to accept It as they then had another deal. This other deal was the purchase of the Interests of a rival Arm, Brown ft McCabe. Klitgaard says that in May he was Informed that the business of Roth chlld ft. Co. would be discontinued and ho would not be needed. Rothchlld and Jonea having decided to continue only the firm thev had oougnt out. lie says the Income of the old flsm was $1,000 per month and he wants his share of the nrofl IS on that basis until Septem ber, besides his salary, amounting in all to 63.078 - j FATHER RIORDAN FALLS FR03I CAH While stepping off a Fifth-street car at Alder and Fifth streets this after noon Father i Rlordan, of Mt Angel college, slipped on the wet pavement and was severely injured when his head struck the hard surface. .
