Formed Relative to the Case.
On the opening of the district court yes
terday morning for the trial of criminal cases,
that of Lewis Weingartner for receiving
goods stolen from P. j. Sabaltz; and given
him by Emil Kosmelter, was brought on, but
j. W. Willis not being ready as counsel for
the defendant, it was postponed.
| The case of James Renshine for assaulting
Lizzie Gustavson, was arranged by counsel
to be taken up on the 18th.
| The case of Thomas Gillipsie was called on
| for separate trial from his companions,
John Leors and Patrick Flaherty, for
| the assaults on the person of Mrs.
| Pauline Gabel in December last. The state
was represented by County Attorney Egan.
| associated with John W. Cathcart, and the
defendant by Thomas Ryan, associated with
| 81. E. Weymouth. The day was exhausted
| in finding three men who don't read the
| GLOBE.
Charles Haggenmiller, called upon to
serve as juror, had read the GLOBE ac-
counts of the affair and believed them. Ex-
cused.
Patrick Keigher didn't remember to have
read the GLOBE account of the crime in De-
cember, but heard them all read in court
when change of venue was asked, and they
had so impregnated his mind that he couldn't
be trusted in the case. Excused.
Godfrey Bahman read an account OF the
crime only in the Dispatch, and Of course
hadn't come to any conclusion of guilt or in
nocence, and to his establishment was ex-
cused. Jssa- z
Fergus Fahey had read the GLOBE and
formed an Interchangeable opinion Ex-
cused. ''i.'' -
Thomas B. Barton had read the GLOBE and
glanced over the other papers. His mind
was SO unbiased on the subject that he was
not wanted Excused.
T. E. Manson had not taken daily paper
in six months, and was wanted. Sworn.
G. A. Bernhard took the GLOBE, and read
all about the case, but had not received any
impression that would prevent his being an
impartial juryman. Sworn.
B. Albrecht.ha perused German paper,
| and if what he had read about the case was
true, the parties ought to be punished. Ex-
cused.
J. r. King was called, but having been a
member of the grand jury which found the
Indictment, was excused.
n. n. Elmer had read all about the case
| in the GLOBE, and heard the articles repeated
| in the plea for charge Of venue and was pre-
JUDGED sworn.
W. B. Burley read the GLOBE and had
heard its articles re-read in the court. He
believed in general the account of this case
by the reporters, and had a family out side
the city limits which would naturally make
him down on this kind of brutal lawlessness,
| therefore he was not desired. Excused.
Conrad Fischer knew the injured family
and had sold them stove. Took no morn
ing papers, but depended on the Dispatch,
and was therefore thought incompetent to try
the case. Excused.
Geo. Adams read the GLOBE at the time,
heard the articles read in the court and had
thick-set opinion which evidence couldn't
disturb. Excused.
Philip Baker knew the family and all
about it, and prejudiced to the bone. Ex-
cused.
T. r. De Grau had read the GLOBE accounts
and believed them in purport to be true, al
though the reporters did find out much by
asking questions to get at facts. Excused.
At this point the panel was declared ex-
hausted, and the court ordered special ven
ire of eighteen jurers drawn returnable to the
court this morning, whose names are as fol-
lows:
