STE|NMAN' TRIAL
IS COMMENCED.
Half of Jury Secured the
First Day in Court of
Judge w. P. Lawlor
MANYCHALLENGES

Jacob H. Steinman, sergeant in the
California National Guard, charged
with, the murder Of Joseph Myers, a
special officer. on the evening of April
10 at Columbia Park, was placed on
trial yesterday in Judge w. P. Law
lor's- court. During the day but six
jurors were secured. Peremptory chal-
lenges were not lacking either for
the State or the defense and 1t is be-
lieved that 1t will take another day
to secure a full, jury. The Jurors Sc
cured yesterday are Charles C. White,
1907 Buchanan street, stationer; Henry
c. Cramer, 22o0 Bryant street, grocer;
Charles Westminster. 2299 Sutter
street grocer; George Larsen, 2116
Sutter street, engraver; William ].
Ramsey. EAT Fell street. merchant; Pat
rick j. Mahoney, 272s Twenty first
street, wines
George Waicom was excused because
he, told Judge Lawlor that he thought
there were three evils of the disaster
the earthquake, the fire and the militia
and that he must admit he was so
prejudiced that he could not give the
defendant a fair trial
John Kitchen Jr. was on the other
side Of the fence. He said he thought
that as long as they gave guns to
young boys who could not be blamed
for committing deeds that older men
had done it would not be right to
convict.
BY its line Of questions the defense
that Steinman was acting in the line
of duty when he shot down Myers
and therefore cannot be charged with a
crime.

COASTWISE VESSELS TO
BE INSPECTED OFTEN

Owing to the many complaints made
by representatives of the Sailors
Union that coastwise vessels are
manned by incompetent crews, and
that the navigation laws in other re-
spects are being violated. United States
Customs Surveyor Woodward issued an
order yesterday to his district inspec-
tors to board every coaster upon its
arrival and examine it's papers to see
that the laws have been complied with.
First Deputy Collector Newton S.
Farley has made a report to acting
Collector William B. Hamilton con-
corning the law and authorities as to
the right of vessels to carry passen-
gers mot for hire" or "deadheads'
without providing the usual life-sav-
ing equipments. The practice at this
port has been to allow such passen-
gers to be carried In vessels having
only freighting license.
The report will not be made public
until after action shall have been
taken upon 1t by the Department OF
Commerce and Labor.
