...Foreman thundered that a "cabal" was out to get the defendants, strongly implied that the police were shielding Weissel. The all-male jury put in 16½ hours before it could agree. And much of the time was spent in theorizing about the possible guilt of Weissel, although the jurymen had heard little evidence connecting him with Mossler-a tribute to the mesmeric skill of Lawyer Foreman. As for Widow Mossler, she and her nephew are now free to enjoy a duly inherited $28 million of her husband's money...

Down with Fraud. Last week, as a federal grand jury convened in Nashville, Publisher Amon Carter Evans could take the special pride of a son who has succeeded in filling his father's shoes. The jurymen will hear testimony on an election fraud-uncovered by the fighting Nashville Tennessean after the Democratic primary last month. In the city's seamy second ward, a political fief controlled by City Councilman Gene ("Little Evil") Jacobs, Tennessean newsmen turned up documented evidence that dozens of the ward's absentee ballots, which decided the outcome, had been turned over...
