SALT LAKE, Nov. 10-The question was
raised in the third district court on Monday, as
to the competency of James johnson, Nor

Mormon against Mormon, claim being made
that be would be biased in favor of fellow
charchman, also that be would be influenced
ing Of Mormons, had appropriated money to
defend the case. Many witnesses, among them
some leading members Of the Mormon Church,
also a number of apostate MormOns, were ex.
amined as to the extent. influence or counsel
brought to bear upon iurymen. Judge Bore
man yesterday overruled the challenge of the
the juryman, deciding that no evidence had
been given showing that Mormon jurymen had
in any case been instructed by the church au-
thoritIes as to the verdict they should give;
that although one witness had expressed the
opinion that Mormons would not be impartial
witnesses when the interests of the church were
at stake, and that he believed that if Nor
mon juror believed that Young wanted jury
man to take given course that would be the
direction he would take independent of his
conviction, there was no evidence that this had
been done, or that the juryman objected to was
under any influence outside OF the court.
