EMMETT MAYS
TRIAL BEGUN

Emmett May, the well known insur-
ance man formerly of Honolulu, who
came back from the coast i'm order to
stand his trial on the charge of EN-
bezzlement which has been hanging
over his head, appeared i'm Judge Rob-
insons court this morning and his trial
was commenced. Considerable pro-
gress was made towards securing a
jury, no less than eleven being secured
before the original panel was exhaust
ed. A special venire of twenty-five
was drawn returnable at three o'clock
this afternoon.
The prosecution was represented by
Attorney General Andrews and Assist
ant Attorney General Fleming while
J. J. Dunno appeared for the defence.
In his opening remarks to the jury
the Attorney General was brief. He
simply stated that the indictment ac-
cused the defendant of having on May
10 1902, embeZzled the sum of $1,000 be-
longing to the estate of Jose A. Betten-
court, deceased, which was the prop
erty Of Mrs. Bettencourt. At the time
of the alleged embezzleent May was
entrusted with the money in question.
There We're "A number of challenges
for cause by the prosecution as many
of the jurors said that they knew
May and had already formed opinions
which evidence would be required to
remove. The prosecution exhausted
its peremptory challenges, and the de-
fence peremptorily challenged Jonathan
Shaw, wi by the way, was foreman
of the jury which convicted Miranda,
the murderer of $. e. Damon.
The eleven finally secured before the
court adjourned for luncheon We're A.

lave, II. Carl J. Andrade w. c. Wild
er, G. Dillingham;, and IL. A. Parmalee.
There remained three of Judge Robin
sons own jury list the other already
called being from the list of Judge
Gears court, but none of these passed
the ordeal and the special venire was
ordered.
j. J. Dunno entered an objection to
the ordering of a special venire's being
drawn.
Il am Directing because I believe the
whole of our jury law to be wrong" he
said This has long been a question
among members Of the profession but
we have only nibbled at it. Sooner or
later the matter must be settled and in
doing my duty towards my client en-
ter my objection now"
Judge Robinson overruled the objec-
ton but noted the exception Of the de-
fence.
The trial is proceeding this afternoon.

ANTI-sALooN LEAGUE.
Condemns Bishop Potter's Endorsement
of New York Saloon.

The Anti-Sa1oon League of the District of
Columbia was out In full force last evening,
the sessions Of the executive committee and
the league proper being well attended.
The report of DR.. Andrew Wilson of the
committee on legislation called forth a dis
cussion with regard to licenses. A saloon
keeper may have obtained a license ten
years ago, 1t was stated, and is running a
saloon today on that same license, when 1t
would be impossible for him TO get new
one, owing to the change of residents or
sentiment in that block. 1t was contended
the law should be changed so that licenses
would have to be obtained every year or
two.
1t was alleged that there should be
change In the excise board so as to divorce
IL from the revenue-raising machinery of
the District government. 1t is regarded by
the league as improper for the idea of rails
ing revenue to enter into the granting of
liquor licenses.
The committee on mass meetings (Mr. n,
M Kingsley, chairman) reported progress
In the preparations for the Anti-Saloon
League revival, which is to commence Oc-
tober II.
Mr.. A. E. Shoemaker, attorney for the
league, said the time has arrived for tenn
perance people to interest themselves in
the question of licenses for the coming year.
He had already secured the cooperation
OF number of business men, and the need
OF more workers, men and women was
great.
Vice President Owen P Kellar offered
resolution setting forth that we condemn
Potter In connection with the opening of a
place for selling liquor in New York city"
The resolution was adopted and the league
adjourned
