Whispered TO Judge.
As Goodale was proceeding with
his statement. Sickles whispered to
Judge Gay the fact that two other
court clerks had been approached
with the suggestion that II this case
should come up before them, the
names OF women Jurors should not
be drawn. II so happened that not
one of the four women Jurors In
Judge Gays department was called
up. This fact. together with the
attempt to influence the other
clerks, was commented on by Judge
Ga.
Walter Fulton, attorney for the
defense. then asked for the immedi-
ate dismissal OF the jury. This
Judge Gay promptly did. The case
was originally TO be tried by Judge
Albertson, and II was transferred
TO Judge Gay this morning. Judge
Gay sent 1t back to Albertson, but
the latter had refused to receive
II at noon. SO the entire matter is
up In the air at present.
