physician made a losing fight before
Judge Porterfleld last week for the ap-
polntment of elisors to take charge of
the Jury and for other court orders that
he asserted were necessary for him to
have a fsir trial he said today lie was
satisfied with the outlook.
The physician has always maintained
that the alleged unfriendly attitude of
Judge Latshaw toward him had much to
do with the first verdict
The defendant Is represented by Frank

ster, W. T. Johnson and John H. Lucas.
United States Senator James A. Reed Is
acting as special prosecutor, assisting
Prosecutor Virgil Conkling. Attorney
John M-.Atwood,' who was employed by
the Swope heirs-to aid the prosecution
at the first trial has not been retained in
this one.
The sole charge upon which Dr. Hyde
Is being tried is the alleged minder of
Colonel Swope Collateral issues admitted
as testimony at the first trial have been
barred by the order of the supreme court.
The first trial lasted si . weeks, and
most of this time was taken up by testi
mony touching on matters that- will be
eliminated this time.
Just before noon the attorney for the
defense entered an objection to the man
ner In which the venire of Jurymen had
been drawn end moved that the entire
venire be discharged and new Jurymen
summoned. . The stste did not oppose the
motion and the court ordered the Jury
men discharged and gave Instructions
that a new venire of 10ft men be drawn
and summoned to be present 1n court to
morrow afternoon; ,
Technical reasons were advanced by
the defense to prove that the first venire
had been drawn Illegally.

flash.
LOS ANfiELEP. Csl., Oct t.-Ftrm be
lief that the Los Angeles Times building j
was destroyed by dynamite Is not neces-
ssrtly a bar to jury servti-e In the He
Namara murder case, according to a rul
ing made by Judge Walter Bordwell to
day. The Judge held that the talesman,
George W. McKee. who held such view, i
would 1n the opinion of the court give a )
fair verdict In the case. There Is no!
chance that McKee will get on the Jury, 1
but today's decision makes It necessary
for the defense to use a peremptory cbsl- :
lenge to get rid of him. The rullnr is the :
first on any point considered as of conse- '
quence since the trial began and, the de- .
fense excepted to It after a passage of
words with the court. The Judge's ruling
in part follows:
"Juror McKve testified thet he bad a
definite opinion as to the cause of the
explosion, and that It would require evf
dence to remove that opinion. He has.
however, stated positively that notwith
standing that opinion, as he explained,
was formed entirely from resdlng state'
ments In the public Journals and public
rumor, and notoriety, he could set as a
Juror In this case Impartially and fairly
upon matters to be submitted to him.
"I do not think the court is bound by
the mere statement of a prospective Juror
that he could so act. It. Is a question of
fact for the court to determine. But If
the court Is satisfied either from the Jur
or's statement of the circumstances which
are available that he can aot thus fairly
end impartially, the court has no dis
cretion, but must allow that the Juror la
qualified."
' "Now do you think that under the con
dition upon thst matter he can act fairly
and Impartially?" asked Attorney Le
Compte Davis for the defense.
The court: "I think so from the testl
mony of McKee taken as a whole. I have
examined It carefully and considered It
and taking into consideration all the
questions asked of him and all ths ans
swers which he has given, I cannot upon
my ' conscience come to any conclusion
other than that he can and wUl set fairly
and impartially upon all matters sub
mitted to him, and require Just ns much
proof on the part of the prosecution in
this esse before he would come to the
conclusion that the defenant is guilty
as he would require If he had no Views on
any subject connected with the case. Be
ing of that opinion, as a matter of fact
1 must come to the conclusion as a mat
ter of law under this subdivision of the
penal code that the Juror is qualified."
.ladtr and parrow CoWld.
A collision between the court and At
torney Darrow occurred when Talesman
Willis F. Oliver, answering a question by
Darrow. said he knew of no reason why
laboring men should strike
"Do you mean that strikes are not re
quired or not proper?" asked Judge Bord
well. "I object to your question, vour honor."
said Attorney Darrow. emphatically. "I
am examining this man "
"I think the question is a proper one.
and the objection is overruled," replied
Judge Bor dwell
"Well. I think the question eobfllou
with my line of examination."
"Oh. on that ground I will not ask it."
replied the Judge. "I was simply getting
st his state of mind "
This Is the first ruling of the trial
which the defense has strongly opposed.
Only eighteen men outside the jury box
and six in it of the original 126 venire
men summoned to try James B. McNa
mara for murder remained when court
convened today at the beginning of the
third trial week. No Juror had qualified
finally. Three talesen, Zeoborn Manning,
Robert Bain and F. D. Green, had bsen
"passed" or temporarily accepted by
both sides.
Talesmen A. C. RobLnon and A. R.
Mcintosh were excused by Judge Bord
well today, leaving only twenty-three
talesmen and veniremen. Both men said
thay were opposed to conviction on a cap.
