Twelve Men In the Box, Subject to
Fifteen Peremptory Challenges.

San Francisco. April 1S.-After pre-
liminares, examinations, adjourn
ments and other delays occupying IN
all twenty-five days, a trial jury panel
subject to the exercise of fifteen per
emptory challengGs-ten by the de-
tense and five by the prosecution
was completed in the Ruef case.
When the trial was resumed, thirty
hve talesmen out of drawn venire
OF fifty issued to complete the panel
answered their. names in court
Twenty-six Of the thirty-fve escaped
serving by satisfying Judge Dunno
that their excuses we're valid. Out
OF the nine remaining, four tentative
Jurors were chosen in the course of
the day, thus filling the box.
The time has now arrived for the
peremptory challenges of the jurors
and much speculation is INDUCED in as
to whether the entire panel will be
set aside in the exercise of this priv.
ilege or whether as many as half of
the twelve will survive the final scru.
tiny Of Ruef's prosecutors and de.
tenders. 1t is thought likely that at
least another week will be required for
the permanent filing OF the panel
after the peremptory challenges have
been exercised.

for the issue In Paris of the decree
