NEW YfiUK. -Following a day of
Intense tienous train, Nan Patter
son Is In the Tombs, ill and Is on the
verge of a breakdown but with con
fitant attendance. Tho iotiner show
girl expecting aiqulttal at tl.o hands
of tho jury which has llstined to the
evldenco In her trial tor the murder
f Caesar Young last June, wei.t Into
the court this noon to hum that the
twelve men chosen to decide as to
her Innocence or guilt had bien un
ahlo to rench an agreement, In fact
had divide d evenly over tho question
as to whethrr or not sho held the re
volver which ended Young's life.
Tho Jury st md six to six, half fot
acqultal the other fortonvlctlon. Al-
though no ofllc'al arinouncrincrit wa
maro further than this, court houst
talk had It that of the hx dccldit g
against Miss Patterson nono was foi
conviction for the murder in the tirst
degree; that one held out for mur
der in the second degree, tofor
manslaughter in the first degree and
three for manslaughter In the second
deKrce.
Immediately the announcement of
ne verdict iis made Miss Patterson
broke Into a lit of weeping which
continued even urtcr sho was led
Irom tho court room to nnothet
chamber, where physicians were call
ed. Thin she was taken to thr
Tombs but sho ngaln wept and
moanid arid lit cam j hysterical and
the ellorts of her father, tho prison
matron and attendants to quiet her
were futile.
The demonstration in tho court
after I he announcement of the decis
ion, was somen hut remarkable, man)
pressing forward to express sym
pathy for the young woman.
Abiam Levy, chief counsel rnr Miss
Patterson, called on his client in Hi.
Tombs and remained with her
an hour. He was ill lr. bid
when the court convened, but
when he learned of l he action of the
Jury he wont to the Jail to chce.c Ills
climb.
"The girl Is In a very h:td mcntu
condition," hesiM, ultirho luftlur.
'She is almost constantly hystcri.
cal but I don't think she will col
lapse. 1 hope I left her In a some
what better frame of mind. I, oi
course, cannot tell what we will d
for her yet. The counsel for tho de
fense will have consultation and will
then do the best wo can for her.
"If tho retrial Is not rleht away j
am ii, ing ton ake a desprate tllort t
yet ball for her. I will plead with
Mr. .leto oe to reduce tho ball to
mfiOf'Oand win be able think to
arrange for that amount and thus let
hir have her freedom wliPo train

ordeals she will have to face."
Inteirst tonight centers In Dis
trict Attorney Jerome's future act

do, but it Is Intimated that the way
tho Jury Hood may inuflenco him as
tc a new trial. Tho Jury took but
one ballot, according to the foiemari
and devoted tho remainder of the
timo to discussion. From first to
last tho division was even. For
tAcnty-four hours they discussed the
evidence and one Juror Is quoted as
siylnj live of those who stood for
ncqultal tried on the coat w.iich
Young wore at I he time ol his death
and with a rwjlver attempted to
demonstrate that suicide was pus
