Before the tenth juror had been chosen,
the defence mad exhausted its thirty per
emptory challenges. while the state had
used up exactly oue-third of that num-

preceding day, were excused because
they had formed fixed opinions OF the
defendants guilt. Some were excused by
Judge Foster because they did not believe
insanity defence should be imposed.
Only two new questions were asked by

the crime with which we have charged
him and to punish him for It and then
we expect TO put him where he belongs
and TO keep him there for the protection
Of the public. We have very radical OBJ

PASTOR TEARS LINING OUT OF
ASSOCIATION OF COMMERCE
While this storm was going on, in
the little Wabash avenue church, the
Rev. Melville P. Boynton was tear
ing the lining out of the Association
of Commerce from his pulpit at the
Woodlawn Baptist church.
DR.. Boynton charged the associa-
ton with being the charity boss Of
the city and that it had syndicated
the consciences of its members by
creating a Subscriptions investigat-
ing committee. He denounced this
committee as a menace to the well
fare of Chicago.
Philanthropy, reform and rescue
work in Chicago has been handed
over to this body" said Dr. Boynton.
Usually philanthropy is made neces-
sary by commerce, and reform is
needed in commerce, and much of
the rescue work is in the wreckage
due to greed in commerce"
Later on he said that if the asso-
citation committee wanted to do some
real work it should give it's attention
to the following expressions of COM
merce: The long hours in the steel
mills, the low wages in the stores,
the graft in city contracts, the greed
of the public corporations, the I'M
gathered garbage, the disease-breed-
ing tenements, the law-defying clubs,
the sheltered gambling, the high
taxes and "the advancing cost of Iv-
ing and a few more of the sores in
the body commercial"
The high lights of the association
were very indignant when told of Dr.
Boynton's criticism and invited a re-
view of their record for good"
