to Be Challenged.

LOS ANGELES. May 17.-Homer
Laughlin. millionaire clubman and man.
ufacturer. who with ten other prospective
jurors passed the night in custody of
deputy sheriffs, was expected to be the
object of the first peremptory challenge
of the defense today at the resumption of
the trial of Clarence S. barrow, the Chi
cago attorney, charged with bribery of
prospective jurors in the Mcnamara trial.
The state. with only five peremptory
challenges, practically asserted, after two
hours Of argument, that the only way the
defense could proceed with the trial of
Darrow without the wealthy clubman
was to use one of it's ten peremptory
challenges
The principal objection of the defense
was that Laughlin had had some diff
culties with union labor.
The challenging of Laughlin is not ex-
pected. however. until after the twelfth
talesman has been selected. 1t was be-
lieved that would be accomplished by
noon.
The jury will be obtained this week. in
the belief Of attorneys for both sides,
and testimony may begin Monday.
