ined and he disqualified himself by de-
claring that overnight confinement or

that he would be unable to reach a
fair verdict.
AS Judge Dunno stated frankly that
he would, If he conceived it his duty,
keep the jury out for the remainder of
the year." the states challenge for
cause was allowed.
Another venire of twenty-five tales
men, the sixth since the securing of
jury was begun, was issued by the
court, returnable tomorrow forenoon.
Ruef today moved for q change or
venue, declaring under oath that he be-
lieves the sentiment against him in the
community to be so general that he
cannot obtain an impartial jury or
fair trial in San Francisco. The motion
will be argued or submitted after the
jury has been completed and the prose-
cution has filed counter affidavits in
opposition to it.
An adjournment was taken until
Monday in respect to the memory of
Superior Judge Hosmer, whose death
occurred yesterday.
