The work of empanelfng a jury to
try ex-Selectman Joseph R. Morris for
agreeing to receive a bride from Mar
tin Hayken, the agent of the furniture
house of Andrews & Co. of Chicago,
was resumed yesterday morning be-
fore Judge Rolapp. By II o'clock the
two jurors lacking on Monday
were accepted and the panel COM
pleted as follows: David r. Parry
John n. Sharp, John Wood, H. p.
Burns, Daniel Dunno Philip Neder,
Harry E. Cottle and Frank B. Shelley
Assistant County Attorney Rhodes
then stated that owing to the many
postponements of these Doodle cases
and the uncertainty that they would
be proceeded with this time, the prose-
cution had not felt justified in going to
the expense of bringing their witnesses
from Chicago, where they reside, until
it was absolutely certain the trial
would go on, and consequently as they
had only been notified yesterday they
could not be here before today. He
therefore asked that an adjournment
be taken until today at o'clock.
Judge Powers, for the defense, OBJ
jected to a postponement of the case
for single day or single hour, for
that matter, as the defendant had
veniepce since the charge has been
pending. The prosecution had not,
Judge Powers believed, acted in good
faith in securing repeated continu-
ances and he therefore desired that
the issues might go to immediate trial.
Judge Rolapp granted a temporary
adjournment of the case and Judge
Powers noted an exception. After a
short consultation it was agreed and so
ordered by the court that the case be
taken uD at o'clock this afternoon
and pushed to a conclusion as soon as
possible.
His honor cautioned the jury that
inasmuch as the case was of great
public interest they should be excep-
tionally careful to avoid reading conG
ments of the daily press upon the
issues which they were to try and to
keep their minds unprejudiced.
1t is expected that Hayken, Swiney
Weary and Davis will appear on the
scene as witnesses for the prosecution

The amendment was defeated and the
original resolution then passed.

GRAND ENCAMPMENTI.O.O.F
HELD At THE MARKET STREET
TEMPLE YESTERDAY.
Radical Amendments Made to the
Constitution and By-lnvs-OHicers
for the Ensuing Year Elected and
InstnIIed-Grand Officers and
Representatives Entertained in
the Evening.

The ninth annual meeting of the
grand encampment, I. o. o. F., for the
jurisdiction of Utah, was held yester-
day at Odd Fellows temple on Market
street. The session lasted from 70
o'clock in the morning till 5 o'clock
in the afternoon, and in the evening
the officers and members of the grand
encampment were entertained at
supper as the guests of Oquirrh en-
campment No. l. The business trans
acted was the election of officers and
a -eneral revision of the constitution
and bylaws.
The meeting convened at 10 o'clock
with seven of the eight encampments
in the jurisdiction represented They
were Nos. l, 2, 5, 4, ;, I and s, In all
there were % officers and grand repre-
sentatives present.
The first business brought before the
meeting was n resolution to amend
the constitution and bylaws and the
greater portion of the day was con-
sumed in the work, which resulted in
a general revision of both. The amend
ments adopted have the effect of
changing the former constitution and
bylaws so as to confer UPON local
encampments the authority to legislate
for themselves by law enactment, what
the monthly dues shall be and the
amount to be paid for the weekly sick
benefits, provided that the monthly
dues shall not be less than % cents
and that the weekly sick benefit shall
not exceed one-half the yearly dues.
The amendments further provide that
it shall be optional with local encamp-
ments as to whether weekly sick bene-
fits shall be paid or not. The consti-
tuition and bylaws were changed
to conform to this idea.
At the conclusion of the legislative
work the officers for hetensuing year
were elected and installed. The new
officers ere:
