A JURORS ERROR.
He Tells His Convictions
to the Judge.
How j. X. Cooper Got Himself Into
Dire Disgrace With the Attor-
ney for the Plaintiff.

The case OF Mahoney VS.. The San Fran
cisco and San Mate0 Electric Railroad
Company, which has occupied the atten-
tion of a jury in Judge Hunts court during
the present week. was marked by a second
unusual incident yesterday.
1t will be remembered that on Wednes-
day last witness named Capron was i'm
peached by Attorney Thornton. represent
ing the plaintiff, on the ground that Cap
ron's testimony was so far different as
given in court from that given before the
Coroner's jury that the witness must have
been got at in the interim. Yesterday the
same attorney rose one step higher and i'm
peached juror.
The unfortunate man who has incurred
the displeasure of the plaintiffs attorney
is j. Z. Cooper. According to Mr.. Thorn
toms statement, as soon as court ad-
journed on Wednesday afternoon Mr.
Cooper addressed Mr.. Thornton and said
he had some questions to ask regarding
some matters in doubt.
"Mr. Cooper was excited at the time"
said Attorney Thornton, land refused to
speak TO him, explaining that l was an at
tOrney in the case. Cooper then and there
in my presence turned to Judge Hunt and
said that he did not believe the statements
made by three of the plaintiffs witnesses,
and what was he to do about it?"
Consequently, when court resumed yes
terday Attorney Thornton rose and de-
manded the removal of Mr.. Cooper from
the jury on the ground that he was biased
and had made uD his mind not to find a
verdict in favor of the plaintiff.
Judge Hunt retired with Mr.. Cooper and
the attorneys on both sides into the CHAM
bers and held conference. What was
said and done did not traDspire. but event
ually the parties returned into court, and
case was continued until Monday next,
the ostensible reason being that an i'm por-
tant witness had failed to appear.
