GET ONE MORE JUROR
FOR CAJHOUN'S TRIAL
Lawyers Find TaIesman Who Has
Taken No Interest in Graft
Case and Formed No
Opinions ;

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 2O.--A single
talesman ran the gantlet of inquiry
today in the trial of Patrick Calhoun
upon an indictment for bribery, and
eleven others, whose examination oc-
cupied the entire day, were challenged
or excused.
Walter j. Rock, the fourth juror, ac-
cepted until the privilege of perempto-
ry challenge is exhausted, is a sales
man for a stationery house.
His examination disclosed that he
had taken little interest in the many
phases of the bribery graft prosecution
ir this city.
Nevertheless he was subjected to a
searching inquiry, which included the
possibility of the loss of his position if
he should remain in attendance upon
the trial for any considerable length of
time.
A large majority of the men exam
ined were more of less ardent sympa-
thizers with the defendant.
When court adjourned for the day
Prosecutor Heney was engaged in a
lively debate with a talesman who had
criticised the methods of the district
attorneys Office and whose private
troubles with labor unions were admit
ted to be of influence in the framing Of
his opinion.

WORKERS MEET DEATH
IN BLAZING SUBWAY
Continued from Page One,

of the disaster dawned upon the little
colony Of workmen, cut off almost
completely from assistance.
One of the workmen made his way
through the smoke to the little inclos-
ure in which telephone communication
had been established with the shore
station. The attendant at this point
received this message:
The crib is on fire. For Gods sake
send help at once or we will be burned
alive. The tug
AT this point communication ceased,
and through the fog an occasional burst
of flames and an unmistakable odor of
smoke made it known to the watchers
on shore that a tragedy was probably
being enacted a mile and a half out in
the lake.
The tug T. T. Morford, anchored
within short distance of the imperiled
crib, was early placed in service in the
work of resuce.
The ice made it impossible for the
tug to reach the improvised pier, but a
small boat was placed in service to car
ry the injured to the tug and rescue
those who had plunged into the lake.
After several hours of work thirty
nine workmen were rescued.
When the fire tug Conway had sue
ceeded in quenching the flames fifty
three bodies had been carried to the
shore.
The contracting firm gave out the fol-
lowing list of missing:

The tunnel was being built by the
George w. Jackson company.
The first section of the tunnel starts
from the shore.
The crib, a mile and a half out,
marked the beginning of the second
section being built still farther into the
lake. The two sections had not Joined
one another as yet.
Until such time as the rescuers are
able to enter the water tunnel it will
not be known how many perished below
the surface of the lake.
Many survivors kept themselves
afioat by clinging to the ice after they
had jumped from the burning crib.
1t is known that at least three who
drowned, but the majority were taken
aboard the tug Morford.
George w. Jackson, head of the con-
struction company, has arranged to
provide burial plots for the victims.

The Old MIN.

Many railroads and other corpo=

i've duties are excluding what are
classed as "ola men from the SER
vice, says the Charleston Gazette.
As rule, they retain faithful en-
ployes who had been in their employ
before the line dividing young
men from old had been crossed.
But in hiring new men there is a
strong tendency toward the fixing Of
an arbitrary age limit The conse-
quences of this tendency are seen IN
the large number Of active, middle
aged men out of employment. The
question addresses itself to youth,
middle age and old age, for nothing
but death can prevent every man
from passing through every stage.
The old have been young, the
young will be old. 1t appeals to all
our tenderness as we'll as to our
sense of Justice to see trained rail-
road man from AS to so years
of age, healthy, strong, active and
intelligent, with others dependent
upon his earnings, debarred from
employment in the field 10 which
he has given his life. The middle
aged and old must live. Science is
