The Governments Case.

The theory Of the government is that
Gray killed Phillips as the result of quar-
rel over woman, Lavinia Phillips. the
wife of the dead mans brother. Richard
Phillips. The homicide occurred the evening
of last Labor day in Phillips court, situa-
ted between 24th and 25th and NJ and y
streets. Lavinia Phillips had gone to her
sisters house. and difficulty is said TO
have arisen between the women. Charles
Smallwood endeavored to prevent trouble,
but Gray, 1t is claimed. wanted them to
fight. The two Phillips nen and Gray met
in the yard of the house, and a controversy
arose between them. Gray cut Richard in
the back. making a slight wound. The
wounded man ran, pursued by Gray, Mel
ton following them, when Gray turned and
cut the latter In the right thigh. The cut
severed the femoral artery and the man
bled to death before medical assistance
reached him.

JUDGE BRADLEY REBUKESA TALESMAN
Some knotty Legal Points involved
in the Hearing.


Daniel Gray, young colOred man, was
placed on trial before Judge Bradley in
Criminal Court No 2 this morning, charged
with the murder of Melton Phillips. also
colored, the 7th of last September. The
regular panel of twenty-six talesman was
exhausted. with only eleven men remain
ing In the jury box, in about an hours time.
when Judge Bradley ordered recess until

additional talesmen report at that hour.
For the first time since his appointment,
District Attorney Davis prosecuted in per-
son. being assisted by Mr.. John E. Laskey,
Messrs. Frank P. Gloss and Eugene J. b.
O'Neill appearing on behalf of the prisoner.
The case Is the first murder trial held since
the passage of the recent act of Congress
authorizing jury in such case to fix the
penalty at either life Imprisonment or
death. District Attorney Davis, however.
will conterd that the act is not applicable
here. a cor tention counsel for the defend
ant will, of course, deny. If Judge Brad
ley instructs the jury that the act is not
applicable here Grays attorney will. pro-
viding he is convicted. carry the case to the
Court of Appeals

While bot one or two Of the talesr1en ex-
amined this morning retained any recoi-
lection of the homicide. quite number OF
them stated that they had conscientious
scruples against capital punishment. Sew
eral of them stated to Judge Bradley, in
