JUROR IMPATIENTLY
QUESTIONS LAWYER
Arthur Doggett Is Convicted of
Embezzlement
Arthur Dogrgett. a stock broker, was
convicted of the embezzlement of $560
from John Clifford by a Jury in Judge
Dunne's court yesterdaj\ A colloquy
of an unusual nature place be
tween a juror and Attorney William
Barnes while the latter was address
ing- the . jury in ; behalf of Doggett.
Bfexnes argued that if there was. any
evidence of embezzlement It was the
embezzlement of stock in ithe lied
Hill mining company, and not of* the
$560, whicii Clifford gave Doggett to
buy the stock with.
-•'Mr. Barnes, do you ask us to. ac
quit the defendant because he em
bezzled the stock and not the money?"
asked Juror Shaddock.
Barnes answered that the embezzle
ment must be proved as charged in
the Indictment. After \u25a0; further re
marks. Juror Duchin took a hand. '. . . .
"Oh let it go, we will attend to it
inside," said Duchin to Shaddock.
The jury returned a verdict of guilty
after being out 10 minutes. The case
for the prosecution was that Doggett
bought the stock- with money given
him by Clifford, afterward made sev
eral inconsistent excuses for not de
livering the stock and finally ran away.
Doggett testified that he gave the
shares to the California safe deposit
and trust company in August, 1907, for
safekeeping, and that J. Dalzell Brown
refused to return it because fie owed
the bank money. j'
