Many Men nf Many Minds Kxiinilued nt to

(!o eminent t'.xliun'ts Its I'lvn Phil
lenses Hie Defense Ilns Sereral Left.
After thu dose of Tub Ciiitic's reptirl
yesterday of the Waul trial, tho shly
talesmen dniwn on Thunday wero ex
hnustisl w ithoitt securing a jury. Tho do
feit'o hnd itscsl twelvo of I heir twenty
peremptory challenges mid the (lovorn
mtnt tbreoof its five. Tho Court ordered
that sixty mora talesmen sliould be drawn
and summoned to appear In court this
moinliigiit 10 o'clock.
This morning a watchman was stationed
at the Cilniinal Court, mid, to every per
son who entered. Inquired: "Aro you a
juror?" Tho answer generally iwciveel
was "Well, I hate been summoned."
Tho juror was then carefully conducted lo
n seat within the bar by tho attentive
official. They begun to drop in by twos
and threes, nnd Mini tho seats allotted to
them vx?rc filled with ti body of represent i-ivciltli-ens.
Aiming them were rich and
Influential mm nud poor, haul-working
day laboreis. Some bad iippurently Just
renched their majority,. while hero and
there was an old gentleman whose ngo
would exempt him lrom-iurv duty.
Many ot them came with iipparent uii
willingness, but the court olllelals w'ero
cry hopeful of obtaining tlio requited
number of men from among them.
Tho crowd of spectators that assembled
at 10 o'clock w as, lomnn hut smaller than
Hint of yesterday, probably owing to tho
c-xpeitntlon of another day of tedious
struggling for n jury.
Shortly after 10 o'clock Chief Justice
Dingbam took his sent and the court was
opened. Ward cam Ing bis overcoat on
his mm and bis hat in hiindsoon nic ired
and took Ills customary seat behind his
counsel.
Justice Itingham called attention to tho
fact that (Jeorgo (hint, the colored Janitor
of the (U'eirgtiow n Medical College, had
been drawn ou tho jury, nnd thut Dr.
Lovejoy of tho college had stated that his
absence front his Hitinn would bo a
Fcrlous inconv enlenco to tho college. Tho
Doctor requested thut O'nnt might bo ex
cused. The Court said that be would regtcl
very much lo intonvcnieiico tho college,
but under the circumstances he could not
excuse him without the consent of
counsel.
Mr. WiNou said that since .Mr. Hunt was
ahcadyscitnl in thu jury box It would
seiiouslv embarrass the case, but left tho
lcsponsibillty with the prosecution.
District Attorney llogo did not Compre
hend why the responsibility of excusing
a juior should rest on the prosecution. I
Since Judge llogo did not desire tn take
ho fcponsibillty Mr. Wilson relieved
him or Iho dllllculty nud excused tlio
juror on tho pait of the defense.
'J hero being already a vacancy on the
jury the clerk- was instituted to call a
talisinun to 1111 the vacancy before Mr.
(lant was eve used. The first juror culled
from the new panel was IMward Alls-JV'rtJ'-
lie was sick, feeble, and nearly
blind, lie wits excused w Ithout examina
tion.
Vltc two next talesmen called, Patrick
Inscou and llemy ( . Thorn, weie re-
too sick to aitenn coutt,
certificates were piesentcd
to that eireel
John C. Siiilngni.ui was then called.

theory of suicide, though thenititreof
