tThe prisoners mother.J ing by both district attorney and de. fense, six men have been relieved from serving after taking their places in the jury box.
 Two jurors-No. 4, David s. Walker, and No. 9, Louis Haas-were excused after conference on motion of Dis trict Attorney Jerome.
 Then three more were found, making a total of eleven again.
 The first new juror, who took the twice vacated seat, No. 4, is Oscar A. Pink, salesman for box factory.
 The second. who took seat No. g. is Wilbur F. Steele, manufacturer.
 The court excused juror No. II, Hen " I. Kleinberger. He has heart trou- ble and feared he could not stand the strain of the trial.
 The last juror chosen was Joseph B. Bolton, a clerk.
 It was announced that another of the jurors already chosen would be object cd to by Mir. Jerome before the trial begins.
 The trouble with Haas and Walker appears to be that they are young and might be swayed by the devotion of the women in the case. Haas is a candy salesman. He has liberal ideas and is well known to many on the Bowery who enjoy the friendship of Daniel O'Reilly of counsel for the de fense. Walker is a son of John Bris- ben Walker. the millionaire publisher and automobile manufacturer. and has a Broadway acquaintance that Is quite friendly to Mfr. O'Reilly. Mir. Walker at the time of his examination admit. ted that he had known Stanford White and had met Harry Thaw.
 Neither Walker or Haas could offeI an explanation for the courts action In ordering their discharge. and Wal ker especially appeared to be taken by surprise.
 It is believed that the twelfth juroI will be secured early this morning, but the uncertainty as to the term of serv ice of a juror now sitting on the tria panel was so strong that predictions are all but worthless.
 District Attorney Jerome announced for the first time that he had decided not to make the opening address to thu jury. He will turn the task over to hi' assistant, Francis F. Garvan. who hal had immediate charge of the case. evel since the night of the roof garder tragedy.
 It is said that Mrs. William Thaw mother of Harry K. Thaw. will be tn, chief witness for the defense in hel sons trial. The district attorney learn cd this and that her evidence VII strongly sustain the contention tha his nature, shown from earliest boy hood. made young Thaw irresponsible at the time of the killing of White She will tell of his strange actions al . child. of his perverse tendencies ant of his fathers belief that the boy wal weak minded.
