There Are Now II Jurors on Trial
Panel, All Married But One Con-
ferences Between Counsel Are
Many and Heated Number Of
Peremptory Challenges Increased.

New York, N. Y, Feb. /. sensa-
tions were frequent in the Thaw
murder trial yesterday and before
the two sessions of court had ended
three sworn jurors had been re-
leased from service in the case, max
ing five in all summarily excused
from the trial panel during the last
three days. In the case of two of
the released jurors no explanation
was made in court. The third was
allowed to go upon physicians
certificate that his life would ibe
imperilled by the close confinement
of jury service. Three satisfactory
talesmen were found to replace the
excused jurors so that when the rap
idly shifting situation underwent a
survey at the close of the day there
were again eleven men in the jury
box. Rumors were current last ev-
ening that the end Of the jury
changes is not in sight and that
further chapters may be added to
what has already become an unpre-
cedented record in criminal proceed :
ings in New York City. There were
several conference Of attorneys yes
terday afternoon at which District
Attorney Jerome is said to have Wig
orously argued the release of still
another juror now on the panel. The
Thaw counsel are said to have
blocked this. The disagreement that
first developed in Justice FitZ-Ger-
AIDS chambers before the afternoon
session began was resumed in OPP
en- court twice thereafter and en-
gendered bitter feelings among the
attorneys. Heretofore the relations
of the district attorney and his as
sistant with Thaw's counsel have
been OF the friendliest nature.
Sensations Frequent
The first Of the days sensations
came Immediately after the opening
Of the morning session. The open
ing was delayed on account Of 9

judge. This conference had hardly

He II Of the Bowery Dry Dock Hotel and
May Have Needed Real Estate.
John Bow. one OF the owners OF the Dry
Dock saloon, at 347 Bowery, was locked up
at Police Headquarters yesterday on a
charge OF being implicated in the attempted
fraudulent transfer OF a piece Of property
valued at $4,000. The property is at $40
and s3S Eleventh avenue. II 10 owned by
Charles Appleby Of Glen Cove, l.. /.
Bow was arrested by Lieuts. McConville
and Nelson Of Inspector McCaferty's stan.
MIR. Appleby read in a newspaper on Thurs
day that a deed Of transfer of his Eleventh
venue property had been filed in the
Registers Office. Mr.. Appleby came to the
city and consulted with his lawyer, Charles
NJ. kennon Of 1856 Broadway. Then they
wen to the Registers Office and looked
at the deed. II said that Charles Appleby
transferred for 81 and other property the
Eleventh avenue property to Edith Storm
bridge. Mr.. Appleby said that his sigma
ture had been forged, and Registrar Gass,
who was consul ted. had the paper i'm
pounded and ordered an Investigation.
-. A clerk in the Registers ofhCe said the
paper had been filed by Patrick Moore. a
Trust Company. Mr.. Appleby and his
counsel went 70 Police Headquarters and
talked with Inspector MoCayYerty. Moore
told the detectives that he had been en-
ployed by Bow to have the deed registered.
The saloon keerer had ask ed him 70 hurry
he matter, as Mrs. Stormbridge wanted to
go on somebody's bond in court. Moore
aaid he did not see the PAPER sig ned and
supposed everything was all right, as the
pager had the notarial seal of Fred G..
Anderson. The deed was dated January
-, 1909.
o From what the detectives could learn
Edith Stormbridgc is a myth. They were
unable to get any explanation from Bow
after his arrest.
Bow was appointed a policeman in this
cfty In 1857. Charges were made against
him three years later and he resigned. He
has been arrested several times and served
time in Sing Sing prison for burglary and
forgery, according to the police record.

POLITICAL SITUATION.

With the idea of ascertaining the
views of the different congressman as
to the political situation in this state
the News and Courier some time age
requested answers to the following
questions:
l. Who is your first choice for Dem
ocratic nominee for president and why
do you favor him?
2. What will be the issues in 1908?
8. Do you believe in government
ownership Of railroads?
4. Can the Democratic party win
next year?
A symposium of replies was printed
in the News and Courier Of last Fri
day. Congressman Finley is quoted as
follows:
The next few months, says Con-
gressman Finley, may bring changes
which will lend an entirely altered
complexion to the political situation
However, he did not think that Mr.
Bryan would become an announced
candidate for the Democratic nomina-
ton. The most sensible thing for the
Democrats to do in case the Republi-
cans nominate a radical would be, he
said, to nominate Culberson, Of Texas
Should the Republican nominee be a
conservative of the Fairbanks type, the
Democrats should nominate Governor
Johnson Of Minnesota, who would, he
thinks, be likely to prove winner
provided he had q sensible platform to
stand on. Mr. Finley thinks that john
son Is a man who would gain and keep
the confidence of the people because
he is a man Of the people and has
come up from the ranks by reason OF
his good common sense, his aggres-
siveness and progressiveness. and be-
cause of what he has already accom-
plished 1t Is safe to predict that he
could carry his own state as we'll as q
number of others of the middle west
In the opinion Of Mr.. Finley the issue
next year should be a demand for
tariff revision, especially as to trust
controlled goods. He says there Is a
large element in the Republican party
that desires tariff revision. but that
the element in control are unalterably
opposed to any reduction.
