WORTH
EXCUSED FROM
COOPER JURY
JUROR DID NOT DENY SPECIFIC
ALLY ENOUGH CHARGE THAT
HE HAD SAID PATTERSON WAS
MIXED UP IN THE MURDER OF
FORMER SENATOR cARMAcK.
BY Associated Press.

Nashville, Tenn, Feb. 4.-When
court opened this morning for the pdr-
pose of drawing a new venire for the
trial of Col. Duncan B. Cooper, Robin
J. Cooper and John D. Sharp for the
murder of former Senator Z. w. Car
mack, Judge Hart said:
There have been intimations in
the press that the jury list has been
tempered with. / wish to say that
ehe jury box from which the names
Clerk Lewis Hit. The names in it
were placed there two years ago. Ii
remains sealed and is controlled By
Hit, who was Carmacks campaign
manager. I make this statement in
justice to every one concerned"
Judge Hart seemed to feel very
deeply the insinuation that there was
an effort made TO get men on the pan
Ell friendly to the defendants. Very
few, if any, in the room had heard OF
such a charge, which was sent TO the
judge in the form of q clipping from
an out-Of-tOwn paper The court then
drew the new Venire and sent for
JurcrWhitworth. The latter was ask
ed to explain his remark that he was
against Governor Patterson.
Il said l was against him because
OF his abuse of the pardoning power
and in turning criminals loose"
Judge Anderson, of the defense,
cross examined the juror.
Whitworth declared he would much
prefer to escape service, but denied
any bias.
Reviewed the Charge.
The court then briefly reviewed the
charge. He held that the claim that
the juror had said that the defend
ants should be hanged was contro-
verted. On the second charge. that
he had said that Governor Patterson
had a hand in the killing, the judge
held that the juror did not deny 1t
specifically enough.
Therefore" the court concluded.
81 deem it best TO excuse Mr.. Whit
worth from the jury"
The state objected strenuously and
declared that the courts action would
disgrace and diseredit Whitworth.
Judge Hart FASTENED TO say that there
was no ground for such a statement.
The state continued to fight the de-
cision and in lengthy speeches sought
TO change it without avail.
Court then adjourned until Monday
at 8 a. m. when the efforts to secure
two more jurors will be resumed.
