I.OS ANGEI.ES, Cal.. Oct. WV-Judge
Walter llordwell accused the defense In
the McNamura murder cuse today nf
trylnK to circumvent his ruling and rn
Jected two challenges against talesmen
which formed the baBls of his suppost
tion. He alxo refused to the defense the
privilege of challenge against a Jnror who
eatd ha would not convict a prisoner In
a capital case on circumstantial evidence
alone and holding that this challenge was
available only to the state.
Under these rulings the Jury box con
tained at the close of court tonight three
men passed for cause by both sides. In
addition to the four qualified when the
day's aesslon opened. To both of the
court's main rulings today Attorney
Clarence 8. Darrow took exception In be
half of Ms client, James B. McNamara,
who la on trial for the murder of Charles
J. Ilaggerty, a victim of the Los Angeles
Times explosion a year ago.
For the first time since the trial bo-a-an,
the defense brought Into court to
day one of its Investigators to confront
a talesman. 8. B. H. Fitzgerald, an at
torney, took the stand after Oeorge W.
Johnson, a retired auperlntendent of an
Iron and brass foundry, bad said he had
not told anyone It was his belief thnt
the Times was blown up by union men
and had not talked to anyone about the
case. Fitzgerald testified that he vis
ited Johnson to obtain some statistical
Information,
In making his decision the judge de
clared the defense's second challenges
were with Intent to get rid ot the men
for grounds other than those made in
the challenge. He said that if the defence
had opposed the challenges presented Sat
urday by the state against Talesman T.
J. Lee, under somewhat similar condi
tions, he would have disallowed the chal
lenge also.
The decision destroyed the hope ot the
defense to get rid ot Winter and Framp
ton without using two of their precious
peremptory challenges.
Winter, In hi catnlnal!6n, said he fiad
an opinion which It would require evi
dence to remove that James H. McNa
niara, on trial for the murder of Charlea
J. Haggerty, a machinist killed In the
Loa Angeles Times explosion, waa guilty.
Krmpton'a statements were still more
positive. Under the law the court is the
sole judge of whether a man can give a
fair trial.
RESTRICTIONS PLACED ON
STATE QUARANTINE LAWS
WASHINGTON, Oct. 30.-Restrictions
were today placed on the enofrcement of
the quarantine regulations of the Depart
ment of Agriculture when the supreme
court of tho L'nlted States held that a
railroad which receives sheep under
cum amine in a state other than that in
which they are quarantined does not
violate the laws, authorizing the quaran
tine. In so holding the court affirmed
the decision ot the Ohio federal court,
- which quashed an Indictment against the
Haiti more & Ohio and Southwestern on
charges of having violated the quaran
tine against Kentucky sheep in 1910.

Congressman Copley
xeiis oi uonversation
With Lorimer
CHICAGO, Oct. 30. Congressman Ira
C. Copley of Aurora, III., today testi
fied before the committee of United
State senators investigating the Lori
mer case that lie told Lorimer In De
cember, 11 OS, that Lorimer could be
elected Vnlleu Pistes senator on a non
partisan basis.
Copley also said that lee ONell
Browne several weeks before I.otlmer's
election predicted that the senatorial
deadlock would lie broken with the re
election of Senator Hopkins by demo
cratic votes. Rrowne lutor, however.
shifted to Larimer, said the witness.
The Interpretation of the primary
law whs such that It ivf an oppor
tunity for Individual action. Although
Instructed for Senator Hopkins, many
members of the legislature voted fur
hlni only once ami then turned to other
candidates. Hopkins personally was no!
popular," the witness said.
Copley said that nfter Senator Hop
kins' majority hud been broken, lie
(Copley) was for Governor Dcnecn, until
he finally refused to lie a candidate.
The witness sslil he talked from Spring
field with Roger C. Sullivan in Chicago
when it was reported that Senator Hop-
kins had pledges from a number of
democratic members.
Mr. Sullivan came to Springfield and
told his democratic followers they must
not vote for Hopkins," the witness said.
'Did you believe there was money
used In that session In a jackpot or
other form to corrupt legislation?" asked
Senator Kenyon.
I wouldn't like to answer that ques
tion. I have not a knowledge personally
to back up such an assertion."
Congressman Copley taid he considered
that there was no possible opportunity
for the election of a democratic United
States senator.
Copley said that he spent s,000 or
19,000 as expenses In the primary cam
paign against Senator Hopkins In the
congressional campaign and In the cam
paign for Senator lorimer.
He denied that any of tills sum was
used corruptly.
Copley asked permission to correct a
statement by James Keeley of the Chi
cago Tribune on the witness stand in
Washington last summer.
"Mr. Keeley told as a fact that I said
Fred Blount was in Springfield with a
bag of money," he said. "Now I heard
that story simply as a rumor and I so
told Keeley. I did not see Blount any
time that session,"
Edward D. Shurtleff of Marengo, 111.,
former epoaker of the house In the Illi
nois legislature, was the next witness.
Shurtleff said that he had served three
terms as speaker and th9t his candidacy

ond. The girl made her escape from the
house by running through the wall of
flame and threw herself to the ground,
rolling over and over, trying to extin
guish the fire. ' Unsuccessful In this, she
ran to a water tank standing near the
barn and threw wuter on her clothes, but
to no avail. With the exception of the
upper part of her waist every stitch of
clothing was burned. She secured u piece
of carpet fiom the barn and, wrapping It
around her body, she walked a quarter of
a mile to a near neighbor, where she was

man was seen to emerge from a passage
