MILES STANDISH EXCUSED
Miles Standish. lumberman, with Of
ices in the Crocker building, was one
Of those excused by the judge, but only
upon the discovery that there were two
citizens OF that historic name within
the bounds of the city. The Miles stan
oish who appeared yesterday. however.
said he was within the city limits only
IN working hours and that for the last
] years he has made his home in Ala
media. The troubled talesman ventured
the opinion that a Miles Standish EN-
ployed in the Flood building might be
the man sought, and Judge Lawlor al
lowed the Miles Standish present to go,
with an order to the deputies that the
other gentleman Of like name should be
served.
George B. Cordano, superintendent Of
the safety deposit vaults Of the Bank
Of Italy, was excused on the declara-
zion that only a few weeks ago the
federal authorities decided that he was
not a citizen of the United States,
though he had believed until that time
thar he was COrdano was Of the opin-
ion that his naturalizati tion papers had
been drawn up incorrectly.
MORE THAN 500 DRAWN
There are still more than 500 names
81 the sherih's big list of possible tales
men, but SO names have been drawn
out already in the first FIVE days OF the
trisl. and SO there is every indication
that within a short time Judge Lawlor
VIII be compelled TO issue the order
made in the first Calhoun trial and
have the sheriff bring into court tales
men from off the street wherever they
MAY be found. This win at least insure
attorneys to examine. while in the pres
ent way OF proceeding the sheriff is
given an arbitrary list OF names and
.zold to md the men TO whom they be-
long. The method of finding the men
1rst and getting their names afterward
IS far the better in this instance.
