RETROGRESSION
MARKS DAY IN
CALHOUN TRIAL
One Juror Accepted, While Two
Are Excused on Challenge
for Cause
Both Sides Attack Men Already
Seated, With Another
.. Threatened
Court and Heney Indulge in Dis*
cussion on the Art of
Patience
W. Russell Cole
Retrogression was the watchword
yesterday in the Calhoun trial. One
talesman was accepted to fill the
twelfth place in the jury box. "t>ut to
offset this incident of progress two
jurors who already had been accepted
were excused on challenge for cause
and a third was being subjected to re
oxatnination when adjournment was
The peremptory challenge stage
seems as far off as it has ever been,
l-'or a few minutes yesterday there
were 12 men in the jury box. but this
did not mean that the first epoch of
the trial was closed. Instead of exer
cising peremptory challenges the at
torneys ( for both siOes attacked jurors
already in the box, with the result
that but 10 remained when the over
night recess was ordered.
Thomas Lockwood of 352 Frederick
street, a tool maker, was the one ad
dition to the jury, while John Scollard
and Arthur S. Ilohnan were the two
dismissed. Scollard was challenged by
the prosecution, and Jlolman by the de-.
fense, and each was excused over the
objection of liv* opposing side. David
liolzbers also was Challenged by the
prosecution and- a" supplementary in
quiry was under way when the session
of court was brought to a close.
ALMANCE MAN SEARCHED
. A slight sensation was caused dur
ing the afternoon session when Cap
tain J. McKJnery, manager of the Citi
zens" alliance, was called out of the
courtroom and searched by Sergeant
Callahan of the police department on
tile suspicion that he was armed. Mc-
Iviuery was ejected from the portion
of the room reserved for jurors when
lie first entered, and his actions after
lie had been seated on the opposite side
of the main aisle caused him to be
watched carefully by the officers of the
special courtroom detail. He was
nnally asked to leave the room, and
in the entrance way was subjected to
a search. A suspicious looking object
in liis hip* pocket turned out to be a
casket .of jewelry, which he declared
belonged to his wife. He made stren
uous objections to the search, but was
forced to submit to it and later was
allowed to return to his seat.
During- tfie morning hour a confer
ence was held between Judge Lawlor
and the attorneys representing the
prosecution and the defense, concerning
which none of those involved would
make any statement. Juror Robert B.
Symington approached the court twice
during the day and was each time en
gaged in a lengthy conversation. It
was generally understood that Syming
ton had asked to be excused from jury
service for personal reasons and that
the conference related to this request.
Thomas Lockwood, the juror accepter!
yesterday subject to peremptory cnal
lenge, ms under examination when ad
journment was taken Tuesday . after
noon and was the first man called yes
terday. He expressed himself as hav
ing no opinions which would disqualify
him from jury service, and although he
had worked in a shop which employed
nonunion labor, said that he had never
been in conflict with any <JI the local
unions. He asserted his belief that im
munity contracts should not be given
except in extreme cases and declared
that he would not accept circumstantial
evidence unless it \vas supported by
other evidence. Despite this stand, he
was passed to the jury box by Assist
ant District Attorney O'Gara after an
extended examination.
M OU.ARI) IS DISQUALIFIED
Judge Lawlor having announced that
the attorneys were at liberty to re
open the examination of any talesman
before exercising peremptory chal
lenges, the prosecution put Scollard
upon the grill for the second time. He
was asked by Heney if he had not ex
pressed an opinion unfavorable to .the
prosecution during a conversation with
Timothy Donovan, a Mission street
cigar store man. Scollard replied that
he had not, but admitted that he had
known former Mayor Schmitz 10 years
ago In Nome, Alaska, an/1 had talked
with him a few times since he was
indicted. This, he said, would not in
fluence his action as a juror.* The
prosecution asked for a delay in order
10 ' introduce witnesses to testify con
cerning Scollard's state of mind, and
an adjournment was taken until after
noon, when Donovan was called into
court and put upon the stand. .
Donovan's testimony evidently was
not up to the expectations of the prose
cution, for he said that he had not
heard Scollard make any direct state
ments which might be used as a basis
of disqualification. Heney. however,
read. at length from the transcript of
Scollard's testimony on his first ex
amination, and' insisted that he had
indicated a state of mind which would
make him unfair as a juror. Judge
J^wlor settled the question after a
long argument by ruling in favor of
the challenge on the ground that all
doubt, should be resolved on the side
of a challenge.
DEFENSE CALLS MOORE
Following the dismissal of Soollard
Stanley Moore asked to reopen the ex
amination of Arthur S. Holman. the
Pacific coast manager of the Travel
ers' insurance company, who was
passed to the jury box about two
weeks ago. Holman was attacked upon
the ground that he had made statements
unfavorable to the defense. He was at
an insurance convention in Monterey
«it the time of the Heney shooting,' and
admitted that he had taken consider
able interest in developments at that
time and had discussed the matter with
several friends while returning from
the convention, Holman called the at
tention of . the attorneys to the fact
that he had testified on his first ex
amination that he : believed ' money had
been paid to the supervisors in con
nection with the trolley matter. This
matter of his opinion was gone into at
poxne length, - and a challenge was
finally interposed by the. defense and
allowed by' the court. : ;-;.'
' ' Heney asked several questions of
Jurors Joseph E. Etnrnons and Charles
H-Suydam relative to new "matters
which had been brought to his atteri

tion since they were first examined, but
the answers of both were satisfactory
to him and they passed- without chal
lenge.
The last man to be challenged was
David Holzberg. Heney asked to have
him dismissed from the -jury and. pro
pounded a number -of questions about
conversations he was supposed to have
held with his partner and with a trav
eling salesman named Levinson. llolz
berg volunteered the Information that
he was the owner of United Railroads
bonds and Heney. insisted that this
should be made the ground "of excus
ing liim. Heney also declared that he
had Holzberg had said- he would' do
the same \u25a0as Morris Haas had done
under similar circumstances. This
Holzberg positively denied.
J"l"d like to get off, but I don't want
o perjure myself," the juror said.
"We are perfectly willing to help
you get off," H^eney answered.
Heney's inquiry was conducted in
such a manner that Stanley Moore ob
jected that he was replying to ques
tions instead of giving the juror a
chance to- do so, and Judge Lawlor
ruled in Moore's favor. . t
COURT SUGGESTS PATIEXCE
"I'm entitled to the protection of the
court In every respect," Heney- an
swered. "I've treated the court, the
attorneys and the' jurors in this case
with proper respect throughout these
examinations. Do I then have to per
mit this juror to cross examine me?"
"You must do as the court has done
— learn the art of patience,", spggested
Judge Lawlor. \u25a0
"I've learned- the art -of patience,"
Heney responded, ' "but when a man
gets shot through the head he learns
that patience ceases to be a virtue,
especially when he considers that
abuse was responsible for such an af
fair." \u25a0 ! •
The inquiry was not concluded, Judge
Lawlor ruling that the examination of
Holzberg be put over until. this morn
ing. The attempt to disqualify hini
will then be resumed by the prose
cution.

WILL CONTEST,
MAY BE SETTLED
Compromise Possible in Suit
Over Estate of Dr. M. E.
Gonzales
There is a strong possibility of Mrs.
Edie W. Gonzales, widow of Dr.
Mariano E. Gonzales, whose will she Is
contesting 1 , compromising with the 42
Rico heirs, who are the only persons
interested in upholding .the will.^ At
the conclusion of the court session' yes-
terday Charles S. Wheeler, attorney
for Mrs. Gonzales; Bert Schlesinger,
representing- the executor; Charles W.
Slack, counsel for Miss Anita Gonza
les, and. M. Dillon, one of the lawyers
for the Rlcos, held a long conference.
They admitted afterward .that the sub
ject of a compromise had been under
discussion, but were not Inclined to di
vulge any details. The lawyers will
me_et'ag-aln this morning before court
assembles, and talk over the matter.
WOULD AFFECT RICOS
The 42 grandchildren of • Francisco
Rico, half brother of Dr. Gonzales, will
not get a cent If the will is broken.
It Is understood that on their behalf
an offer has been made to accept $1,000
each and abandon the remainder of
the 5300,000 estate to be equally di
vided between Mrs. Gonzales and Miss
Anita Gonzales, the daughter of the
testator by his first wife. Under the
will the Ricos get one-third of the
estate and an additional third on the
death of Mrs. Gonzales, or In the event
that she remarries.
A mild sensation was precipitated in
court yesterday when Bailiff Simpson
reported to Judge Graham that one of
the Rico heirs was carying a revolver
in his hip pocket. The judge had thq
young man . brought before him. He
said that his name Is Louis A. Rico and
that he Is a detective in the Los An
geles police force, explaining that the
city regulations of Los Angeles re
quired, that he carry the weapon.
Judge Graham told him to leave it at
home nexttin\e he came to court.
TELLS OF PECULIARITIES
Mrs. Gonzales took, the witness
stand in the afternoon and began the
relation of her late husband's peculiari
ties. She said tha^ after her marriage
none of ,her friends. called on, her. At
torney Wheeler asked her whether this
was not because her. husband forbade
them calling, .but the question V was
disallpwed. Gonzales never took her
to .the theater, or any place of-'amuse
ment in their 13 years of married llfe^
the witness said: The Ricos never,vis
ited Mr and: Mrs.' Gonzales at the
ranch' in Monterey, county, she said.
She remembered that, .one of them, a
granddaughter of . Francisco Rico, did
housework at the ranch for five weeks.
Dr. Gonzales ; never wrote a : letter
without discussing it -with his wife,
the "witness testified, and he - always
consulted her about - business matters.
\u25a0Wheeler;,offered-"in evidenced small
book-in, the hand writing of Gonzales
to show, ,he said, that . much of the
writing. ; was "irrational, but ' when
court adjourned It had not been de
cided' whether it ; should,- be admitted. !

Jealous Wife Gives
Bail for Appearance
Mrs. CoGhraneMust Ansv/er Charge of Attempt
:to Murder Husband's Affinity "
,Mrs: Lizzie G Cochrane" who shot
and wounded Mrs. 1... K. Emory Tues
day .. night • when- she found -the woman
in the company of her husband, Attor
ney James. W.Cochrane, has returned
to her home,. 2711 Sacramento street,
and is lining" there quietly a^airi %vlth
her four children and the - husband
whose actions aroused her anger. .
Mrs. Cochrane spent. a: tempestuous
day of it yesterday, and this 'morning
she must appear before Judge Conlan
,to answer to the charge .of attempted
murder , against her. Cut there is , a
disposition/on the part of all. the prin
cipals ,to the affair, strengthened by
the entreaties of their relatives, to let
the hubbub raised by 'the two shots
Mrs. Cochrane fired at her husband's
companion Tuesday night die away.
Mrs. Cochrane herself has been per
suaded to take this course, because of
the engrossing love Ij*ie has for her
four children, all of them 'attending
school, who have become; the object of
their ebntrades 1 curiosity ;the
shooting' occurred. ;
APPIXITV'-T'O LEAVE
It has been agreed that Mrs. Emory
shall leave town, and her sister, Miss
L. C. Kennan, has taken charge of the
Ciaremont rhotel,- conducted by Mrs.
Emory, at First and Harrison streets,
until the place can be disposed of.
It appeared for a time yesterday that
Mrs." Cochrane had decided to s evade
the of her act,' or b«en
persuaded to do so, for. she did not ap
pear in Judge Conlan's court at 10
o'clock, as directed by the court, to
answer to the charge of. attempt to
commit murder. The judge thereupon
declared the $250 bail forfeited and is
sued a bench warrant for her, arrest,
raising the bail to $500 cash, or ?1,000
in bonds."
During the remainder of the morning
and during the early half of the after
noon Mrs. Cochrane was not located,
but about 3 o'clock Clerk Mark Noon
of the . bond r and warrant clerk's office
went to the office of R. P. Henshall,
Cochrane's law partner. Henshall gave
the ;SSOO bail,_ secured ah: order of re
lease and then went in. an auto to the
Cochrane home, from which place he
conveyed the woman to the O'Farrell
street, station. There she was booked
and. immediately after released on the
bail order Henshall had secured.
.No reason was given for Mrs. Cocli
rane's nonappearance until, : after the
judge had issued the bench warrant
and declared the prisoner should be in
court today, a clerk from the office of
Attorney James. A. Stephens appeared
and asked for a continuance of , the
case until today. Judge Conlan told
the clerk that the continuance already
had. been, made because Mrs. Cochrane
had not appeared.
.."Mrs. Cochrane ' has not appeared!"
cried the clerk. "Why, she left Mr.
Stephens' office "only a few minutes
ago, after consulting him on the case,
to come here."~
CHANGED HER MIXD ,
Mrs. Cochrane had decided, while on
her way to co^irt, that it would be best
if the matter was allowed to quiet down
for a day,' ' . ,
James \V. Cochrane, the husband in
the case, spent yesterday seeking quiet
places away from; the glare . of pub
licity. Mrs. L. K. Emory, the woman
who received a wound in the right
wrist for being Cochrane's too frequent
companion, also spent a silent day at
the St. Francis hospital. Mrs. Cochrane
was the only one of the trio interested
in the shooting Tuesday night who
talked at all freely. '
, "I shall allow things to go on quietly,
as they are now," Mrs. Cochrane said
yesterday. "Affairs will adjust them
selves soon, I have no doubt. No/ I
shall not, leave my husband."
•Mrs. Cochrane ;. gave as the reason
for her desire to remain with her hus
band the fact that they had gone
through many years of married life
together and could not change now.
It .is palpable that it is for the sake
of her children that Mrs. Cochrane
does -not seek a separation.',
:"I am being attended' to," Mrs! Emory
said yesterday, "and that Is all I care
to say. I regret more than I can say
that this affair occurred.'-'
; Michael"^ 1 . Cochrane of San Rafael,
a brother V>f the attorney, took dharge
of affairs at the Sacramento street
home yesterday and exerted himself to
make the event ; of . Tuesday evening
seem a matter of small, moment. He
declared, that Mrs. Cochrane v/as mis
informed In believing that the relations
between her husband and Mrs. Emory
were any more friendly -than they
should be. between: any lawyer and Ills
clients, and that the two were: count
ing their j money, after selling some
property In the little restaurant in the
Richmond district, where Mrs.- - Coch
rane's '.detectives .discovered them.
Cochrane further, declared that Attor
ney R: P. Henshall, ;hls brother's law
partner, : was with | the two,' but , Hen
shall himself, when told of .the. state
ment, denied it -strenuously; and in
alarm.
"*:"Xo; I should say. I wasn't -with
them;" Henshall said "I; wwats t at the
theater, where Cochrane's message ! ap
plying for bail reached; me after
the shdoting had taken. place.; I knew
nothing of the affair.jand never knew
Mrs. Emory more 'than -casually." ' .
Mrs. Emory acted {as a stenographer
f,or Cochrane some five years ago, when
the '; attorney's ' offices .were \ in:, the
Crocker building.
SELLS HER ; HOTEL
"You see,"t M. F. Cochrane said, "Mrs:
Emory sold her hotel, the iClaremont,
yesterday, and - my r brother^ acted as
her. attorney. v . After '\u25a0 closing' the deal
they -wentv out/to^'thatlirestaurant io

, "Why did they go- awayfout there to
