Despite this, Darrow kept in mind

he was, even in the face of these broad
and palpably disqualifying statements,
afraid to challenge for cause at that

A storm Of objections came from the
prosecution and a hard fight was put
up to have Mullen put on the jury.

venireman Admits Otis son-in-Law
Hoped to Have Him on

Chandler said he hoped l would get
on the jury innocently admitted Ben
jamin w. Clark, wealthy fuel dealer
and close friend of the son-in-law of
Otis, who tried to get him on the jury
in the Mcnamara trial.
Judge Bordwell was enraged at the
declaration of the talesman. The
prosecution was eager to get the man
on the jury as they knew the mans
leaning. Clark said he knew Chandler
and had been a close friend for many
years.
Clark said he had talked with
Chandler as soon after the fire as he
could get to him. He told Chandler
to be careful what he said and pub
lished, but Chandler said: I'VE know
what we are doing"
"A couple of days ago Chandler, who
is the general manager of the Times,
met Clark on the street and they held
a conversation concerning the NC
Namara trial.
what did Mr.. Chandler say to you 2"
asked Davis of the defense.
"He said he hoped I'd qualify for the
jury" =.
Job Hartman, who had been prompt
ing Davis in the questioning, turned
with a broad smile. Judge Bordwal
seemed astounded. He leaned forward
and asked Davis with asperity: Sal
do you want to challenge this
man r. Then he answered his own
question without waiting for a reply:
III don't think it is necessary"
There was a mnrmur in the court
room and the bailiff raped sharply.
Judge Bordwell exclaimed:
"Mr. Clark, / amf astonished that
you permitted yourself to talk with
anyone while the case is pending, and
you were possible juror.
Il didn't think didn't mean to
discuss the case" said the capitalist
weakly. Bordwell scarcely waited fol
! the man to answer. He again broke
in sharply:
81 am surprised that you shouil
talk with Chandler or with anyone
else about this case. l don't think
you ought to sit. You are excused
This action was blow to the prose
cntion, for Clark had made a fairly
good impression and aside from his
apparent eagerness to serve, the de-
tense was not displeased with him.

the prosecution seeks to get in the
Jury box was that OF F. F. Mullen. an
