WASHINGTON. D. C., Nov. 13.?
The llrst dny of tho trial Of Mrs.
Annie M. ltradley, on tho charge of|

entirely in an effort to obtain a Jury.
When at -I o'clock the court adjourned
for the day. that preliminary work
was sti'u incomplete, notwithstanding
;;i men had been examined As to their
competency to sit in the case.
It was made evident that tho attor?
neys for Mrs. Bradley will depend up?
on 111" plea of Insanity as- their only
professed defense. If there was nny
confidence in the plea of Justification |
It was suppressed.
Many Jurors were excused on ac?
count of their opposition to capital )
punishment for women.
Mrr. Bradley w-as accompanied to |
the court room by her mother, Mrs!
Madison, who remained during the
forenoon session.
During the ourlly hours of tho (lay
Mrs. ltradley appeared nervous and
affected fy all tho references to tho
tragedy, but later gained bor com?
posure. The court room was crowded,
many of the spectators being women.
