fering from a severe mental strain,

himself stigmatized as coward, and
afraid to meet Smith. has nearly brok-
en- his heart. On Monday morning, he
walked across the street from the
Merchants Hotel, and accosting an Of
ficer, said: Here. You fellows have
been brealrink in my door ever since
have been here. If you want to arrest
me, here am Take me-" The officer
arrested him and later he was sent to
the hospital.

II OBJECT, YOUR HONOR"
Prendergast Tries to Take Hand IN
the Selection Of His Jury.

CHICAGO. Dec THE monotony OF the
work of getting a jury 10 try Prendergast,
the slayer of Mayor Harrison. has been
broken several times by the prisoner him
self
To the likely venremen this question Is
asked; Can you start out by presuming
this defendant To have been sane at the
time he killed Carter Harrison, as required
by law" From the commencement OF
the legal questions touchin. upon the plea
of insanity set up by the defense, Prem
dergast acted in nervous manner.
While A. ROsenthsl, an acceptable
venireman, was being examined as to pre-
sumiug Prendergast TO be sane until
proven insan e, the prisoner made an eiort
TO get up aud 90 TO Lawyer Wade, but
deputy sheriff restrained him by force.
The prisoner then said II object to being
tried by any jury except those who con-
slider me sane.
The states attorney told the deputy
sheriff TO allow Prendergast freedom OF
movement between his seat aud those OF
his lawyers
''Sit down here and talk 20 your law
yer said Mr.. Kern, givirJ PrenderRast
his seat. Prendergast muttered few
words in Attorney Wade's ear, but the
senior counsel cut him short by saying In
loud voice: I'VE will have no grand
stand play here. You 20 back and take
your seat" Prendergast obeyed, nutter-
ing To himself.
few minutes passed and the slayer OF
Carter Harrison broke out again. A
venireman was asked il he had any obJec-
tion TO serving after being told that the
state would ask for the inficton of the
death penalty, and said he had not. Prem
dergast jumped up rs soon As the answer
was given and exclaimed:
81 object to that, your honor. 1t is
presumption that | am guilty already
the fact that he holds that opinion.
Everybody turned and looked at the
speaker, but neither judge nor lawyers took
any notice OF the interruption.
