the matter. He said he would not make
a motion did he not think it was for
the best interests oI all concerned. He did
not think the case should be tried before
the entire conference. as it would be a
big temptation for oratory on both sides
and which might be the means of in
fluencing the members Of the conference.
Mr.. Mowbray stated that the whole
conference would make a defective jury,
