ALL JURORS DISMISSED
Remors of Jury Fixing Result in
Retirement of the Entire
Panel.

Detroit, July s.-Judge Alfred J. Muir
ply, of the Recorders court, created
sensation in the early proceedings to-
day for the trial of Frank C. Andrews,
former vice president Of the wrecked City
Savings bank, which began this morning,
by dismissing the entire panel of Jurors
drawn for the July term of court.
Judge Murphy said in explanation of his
action that he had received certain in
formation affecting members of the jury
and he considered it proper in the in
terests of justice to discharge the entire
panel summoned for the rest of the term.
While it has not developed in court, it
has been rumored that several of the men
on the jury were very friendly with some
Of Frank C. Andrews close political asso-
ciates. 1t was agreed to-day by counsel
for the defense that F. G. Andrews should
be tried at once on the last preferred of
the several charges against him., ~.
Andrews attorneys announced that the
ruling of the court in regard to the jur-
ors took them by surprise and entered an
exception. Attorney Baker then moved
to quash the charge against Andrews on
the ground that the prosecution had not
set up a proper case. -

be Is proven guilty beyond reasonable
doubt. If a witness testifes falsely in
any one particular you should disregard
his evidence except where it is cor
roborated by credible testimony. You
can not corroborate one rotten stick by
another. OF what worth, as corrobora-
ton, is the testimony of this rotten stick,
Norbeck, a self perjurer, who
takes the stand, as the accomplice OF
thieves, hoping,that he may thus save his
cowardly hide? ~ ~.. =.
This case, so far as the state is con-
cerned, rests upon the testimony Of
Crossman and Norbeck, indorsed by How
ard; thieves, and hypocrites all. You
can't convict this defendant without be-
lieving what Crossman says. Now. when
the state put these men upon the stand,
why didn't they have Billy Edwards
of the others, and he has been here
in the courtroom for days. When you
are considering this case ask yourself
that question. Edwards is the only man
who could tell you of the relations ex-
listing between himself and the chief, but
he was not asked to do it. Why?'
Mr.. Nye then eulogiZed Colonel Ames,
calling attention to his record and to the
testimony Of witnesses who said his chare
acter had always been considered good.
He asked the jury if it would convict
such a man. on the testimony OF
ScOundrelS, and drew a V1V1d&plcture or
the Ames' household,-with the, husband
and father in Saltwater. Mrs. Ames and !.
her children were in the courtroom DUR
ing the address and Mrs. Ames was in
tears much of the time. !. s.rs4-2 -
The attorney also paid his respects to
the press, saying that it delighted in
feeding the minds Of the people on scam
dal and wrong; and congratulated the
jury upon it's freedom from. such infiu-
! ences since the case was opened. He said
the defense would concede Norbeck
| guilt, but would claim that the wave Of
corruption never reached as high as the
chief. = st.s4s>es75. -
Mr.. Nye showed slight disposition to
reflect upon TIE mayor, and asked the
jury, pertinen t1y, why Crossman had gone
| to the mayor to complain after he had
been arrested for vagrancy, instead of to
the chief. Then he said the mayor was
not on trial. .'s-
| In conclusion Mr.. Nye. said:
| The ll-seeing eye of God is upon you. Let
| your verdict be such that you face that
eye. Let it be such that you can say at the
| end, 81 did right There is no justice that
| is not tempered with mercy. He shall have
| judgment without mercy who has shown no
| mercy. Say whether Crossman and Howard
| shall ruin not only Fred Ames, but the hon
| orable household. If I sat in your place I'd
rather lose my right arn-aye, my transitory
life rather than convict that man on the
evidence of Crossman.
