OBJECTIONABLE JUROR.
Mr.. Crocker Has Business With Onc of
the Durrant Attorneys.

San Francisco. Aug. 23.-The prose-
cutlon in the case of Theodore Durrant
is in fresh trouble over an accepted
juror. The cause of the dissatisfaction
Is the business connections of Juror
Nathan Crocker. He owns a red rock
quarry which has not been in opera
tion since a test has been used to de-
termine the respective merits OF red
and blue rock for concrete work In
pavements. The board Of supervisors
Is at present in favor OF blue rock, but
the red rock contractors are making
n vigorous fight for the acceptance OF
their stone. Attorney Dickinson OF the
counsel for Durrant Is also attorney
for the majority In the board of su-
pervisors. He is credited with influ-
ence over his clients and the prosecu-
ton fears this will detract from Crock
er's usefulness as a juror. II is now
considered certain that Durrant will
be witness in his own behalf. 1t Is
said that this determination was
reached after Mrs. Keake came for
ward as witness. stating that she
had seen Durrant and Blanche La
mont enter the church together on the
day Blanche disappeared. No progress
was made to-day in the court proceed
ings in the trial. More than 40 ven-
iremen were examined. but none were
accepted. The case will be resumed
on Monday.

THE WEEK IN TRADE.

New York. Aug. 23.-R. G.. Dun g.
Co.'S Weekly Review Of Trade to-mor-

shrinks. as Is natural In August. and
the shrinkage seems rather larger than
usual. because transactions in July
were somewhat inflated for that month.
Some industries are doing more than
ever before in August. and the pros
poets for fall trade are good in others,
although much depends on the crops
and the outcome Is less clear than
spectators on either side are disposed
to admit. Industrial troubles have not
entirely ceased but during the past

Seattle, Wash. Aug. 23.-The feature
of the mornings proceedings In the
Northern Pacific receivership case was
a two hours address by ex-unlted
States Senator Sanders. Of Montana,
counsel for the company. While only
the question of jurisdiction has thus

ex-senator John b. Allen of Washing
ton. both for the Farmers Loan 4
Trust company; by d. ]. Crowley. of
Tacoma. and ex-senator John c. Spoo-
ner, of Wisconsin. both for the receive
ers, and by Col. Silas W. Petit, who
will close for the railroad company to-
morrow at noon. The addresses of
Senator Mitchell. ex-senator Allen and
Mr.. Crowley were directed to the legal.
ity Of the Jurisdiction of the Wisconsin
court, and the points they presented
were along the lines Of the argument
made yesterday by Counsel C. W.
Bum, the main point they endeavored
to establish being that Judge jenkins
court having taken Jurisdiction. even
under a defective creditors bill. and
that Jurisdiction having been assented
to by the defendant, could not now be
subjected to collateral attack.
Ex-senator Spooner was allotted only
Is minutes. and he dwelt upon the
main point emphasized by his col
leagues.
Colonel Petit began his address at
4:3O o'clock, and, in his argument. was
unsparing in characterizing as collu-
sive the methods by which the presen,
management Of the road gained con-
troll. He declared that the receivers
and their adherents had misrepresented
the facts to this court and thereby
through comfy. had succeeded In Sc.
curing appointments here.

ter OF Joshua Spates. a wealthy East
Springfield farmer, and was escorted
by Starr Keller.
1t was a pretty dress party, and
Miss Spates cclipsed all the fair debu-
tantes. She was tall and slender, with
Jet black hair and deep blue eyes. The
guests looked upon her with envious
eyes.
The band struck up n dreamy
waltz. and the fair unknown danced
with grace and abandon.
Suddenly she uttered a scream and
fell on the ball room floor. Her appa-
rently lifeless body was borne from the
hall and DR.. Boreland summoned. He
diagnosed the case as catalepsy. The
girls form was rigid, her pupils set.
while her face was white as snow. In
quiry developed that the girl was n
victim Of hypnotic suggestion. She had
never read ''Trilby." had never waltzed
or attended a ball before. had never
worn evening dress. or been, to any ex.
tent. in the company OF gentlemen.
A stranger. who met the girl on a
fishing excursion. hypnotlzed her. bor-
rowed the finery In which she was clad.
introduced her TO Starr Keller and In
duced him TO escort her to the ball, all
being done as test OF his hypnotic
powers
Miss Spates was taken home and is
very III. She has no recollection Of the
occurrences Of the evening. A war
rant has been issued for the arrest Of
the man who hypnotized her.
