Mrs. Held is tall, stately, yet mother

five minutes, apparently differing In

"Whose turn Is It te challenge?"
Judge Barratt asked anally. Common

"tl Is my turn," mid Mr. Scott,
"but I must ask our Hener te bear

The conference went en again until

scruples against capital punishment,
Meri is EckBtein, a jeweler, of 5112 I'lne

cause, as was Chnrles Kes, a butcher,
whose home is at 1415 North Fourth

Alter Kess had been challenged Mr.
Scott nddressed the court and expressed
the fear that the panel would be ex
hausted unless they discontinued cbal-
I lenging for trivial reasons.
"I would like te question the talcs
man fuithcr," sold Mr. Scott. "I de
net believe he understood Mr. Spciser'sj
question about conscientious scruples."
I Mr. Scott's request was granted nnd
he began te interrogate Kess. The
latter showed by his attitude and an
4vvci's that he was hard of hearing.
I Mr. Speiser showed Increasing Irrita
tion. He whispered whlspeis te Dis

said:
"Mr. Scott, aren't you satisfied that

Gorden Delays Trial
Mr. Gorden finished his conversation
with the Judge, shook hands) again, and
pnssed into the body of the court. 'Mr.
Scott rose as he approached, stepped
him and shook hands with him, nnd
then Mr. Gorden strolled en down the
aisle.
Mr. Speiser then continued his exam
ination of the talesman, finally chal
lenging him for cause when it developed
that he. entertained -a fixed opinion.
The defense was compelled te use
another of Its peremptory challenges en
Geerge O. Kline, a manager, living nt
2046 North Twenty-fifth. street, tain
next talesman, Kline, n sharp and
businesslike looking person, impressed
the attorney for the defense as a man
who likely would favor the Common
wealth, Mr. Scott lest little time in
challenging.
Jehn Hawthorne, a Negre.n car
penter, who lives nt 1010 Seuth Twen
tieth street, said he did net believe a
woman should be held te. ns strict ac
countability as a man. He said, tee,
he did net believe in capital., punish
ment, but under cress-examination ad
mitted he would be guided by ".the evi
dence in the case.
Mr. Scott was pressing the prospec
tive juror closely when he suddenly
startled the courtroom by turning te
Mr. Spclscr and saying:
"Mr. Speiser. don't shake your head
at the witness.'1
"Teu don't mean te Infer that I am
trying te influence the witness, de
you?" demanded the Assistant District
Attorney indignantly.
"tf course net," said Mr. Scott with
a tingle of sarcasm, "Yeu did it un
consciously," The talesman didn't seem te have any
very fixed notion about what a juror's
attitude should be.
"I would obey the court and the law
of the land, but I klnda have a feeling
that a woman should net be made suffer
like a man," he said.
Mr. Speiser challenged for cause.
Mr. Scott objected strenuously, but
Judge Barratt overruled him.
The defense used its right te chnl
lenge peremptorily again fhen Fred
Merrill was examined. He Is forty
years old, a machinist, and lives nt
6240 Sansom street. Merrill said he
came from Bosten eight years age and
is manager, for n machinery concern.
Apparently neither Mr. Scott nor Mr.
Cenner approved of him. They lest
little time in deciding te challenge him
peremptorily.
Guards Still Are Watchful
The courtroom was comfortably filled
when Mrs. Rosier entered. There were
still some seats vacant, although, a
crowd clamored outside te get Inte the
courtroom.
The same precautions were taken, en
.Tudee Bnrrntt's orders, ns yesterday te
keep out the morbidly curious. Guard,
were at cither end of the south cor
ridor te keep out these who could net
prove business there, nnd the guard
en the deer scrutinized the credentials
which every one who wanted te enter
wni. forced te exhibit.
Most of these in the room were mem
bers of the venire, mere than 100
strong, and witnesses. Mrs. Ralph
Chapelle, Mrs. Hosier's sister-in-law,
was there with Mrs. Sue Reid, the de
fendant's grandmother, and Richard,
the year-old baby. Mrs. Chapelle car
ried the Infant, which clutched a' filled
milk bottle in one hand. Arthur Rosier,
brother of the murdered man, also, sat
among the spectators. j
Mrs. Rosier walked briskly 1x her
place when she was tnken te the court
room a few minutes before the sched
uled time for the trial te resume, If
she saw her brother-in-law she gave
no sign of recognition but her eves
lighted e"s they rested en the, baby.
She smiled and waved her hand te the
little party.
