KEATON WILLIS MURDER
TRIAL AT GRAND RAPIDS
Work of Securing Jury Drags TediouslyJudge McClen
ahan Grants Temporary Injunction in Case Of
Hepfel VS.. Village Of Grand Rapids
Grand Rapids, Mimi, June FL

Grand Rapids, Mimi, June 27.-
Especial to Pioneer. 1.-THE trial of
the case of the state against Keaton
Willis, who is accused of killing his
father at Deer River on April l, was
begun here this afternoon. Ten
talesmen of the regular panel of
twenty-four had been examined un-
successfully when court adjourned
for the day, and Judge McClena-
han, before whom the case is being
tried, ordered the sheriff to summon
a special venire of sixty men to re-
port in court tomorrow morning.
Self defense will be the plea of
young Willis. The alleged crime
was committed at the Willis home,
near Deer River. Mrs. Willis, two
daughters and Keaton were sitting
in room, when Mr.. Willis entered
with quantity of bed clothing that
had been in a camp in the woods all
winter.
Mrs. Willis told her husband that
she did not want the bed clothing
in the house, but the man insisted
on coming in, when Keaton pushed
him through the door.
Mr.. Willis then went down town
and bought a revolver, and returned
to the house. The occupants were
first attracted to his presence out
side by seeing him point gun at
them through a window. One of
the sisters then ran into another
room, and returned with a revolver
which she handed to Keaton, telling
him at the same time to defend
them.
Keaton, then, it is claimed, took
up a position near the back door,
and when his father approached,
shot at him. The old man reeled
for moment, then fell. He got up
however, whereupon the boy fired
another shot, the bullet striking
his father in the back of the
neck, killing him almost instantly.

Pressure upon railway stocks continued
yesterday. bringing Washington Railway
and Electric common a fraction below the
lowest of the previous day. In all, 80
shares were sold below 80. with options
on $50 shares at 40.
Several bank shares were put on record
again yesterday, thirty shares OF Ameri-
can Security and Trust selling from rs
down to 276.
Trading was small in volume, and no
great interest was manifested in anything
beyond the railway stocks.
After adjournment there was an after
CALI session, not usually down on the
daily programme. One of the local pa
pers had referred, IN a somewhat pointed
manner, 10 what is called block orders,
meaning that in the effort to make GER
tain stocks seem active there was conniv-
ance between brokers TO make il appear
that actual sales Of the shares was being
made when it was only a pretended sale
Many Of the brokers called the reporter TO

Jumped on him. for what the brokers
declared to be unwarrantable license on
the part of reporter having the pTivi-
leSes Of the Stock Exchange. The session

the law there Is every. reason to believe
that they are entirely within their legal
rights in the course which they have
taken.
