Arizona republican., 1913-12-03

A scene of busy, methodical ac- tivity was the federal count room yesterday while the selection of a jury to try the Phelps Dodge peO- pie on a conspiracy charge From the moment Judge Sawtelle announc- ed that he could see no reason to change his first ruling on the indict- ment charging conspiracy, the ! lawyers were kept busy arranging their cases and watching 3rtently the business of selecting a jury Except for the occasional bursts of humOr from Reese Nj Ling, inter rogating for the deiense, the jury drawing was dull and uninteresting Of the panel of twenty nine
 half knew or had had relations with the far reaching Phelps Dodge inter ests. And when the challenges had been exercised and the jury was called, it was apparent that the fair est, most impartial twelve men of the twenty-nine had surely been chosen.
 While the cIeIJl was swearing the jurors tuele was an onslaught of attorneys to the table. The furni- ture had to be rearranged so that the many attorneys could all face the jury, and Joe POrterie the in terpreter. was perched on d high stool beside the witness box.
 By United States Attorney Joe Morrison were Oscar Richey and Jack Forrest. his assistants On the other side of the table sat Reese M. Ling. John Mason Ross
 Doan. w. H. Brorhy. head of the PheIpsDodge interests in Arizona, sat between Frank E. Coles, manager of the hardware department of the
 
 w. F. Fisher mar ger of the Doug las Hardware company. Judge T. A Falvey of Fl Paso, attorney in the cases again~t the Shelton Payne Arms comnany and Walter D. Howe, also of Fl PasO. sat at the bailiffs table taking Cor'ous notes for refer ence in case the other charges are tried.
 Juror Quizzing.
 The preliminary quizzing of the jur- ors was penetrating searchingly so. The ideas as to the Mexican political muddle, acquaintance with the wide reaching PhelpsDodge interests prej udces for or against corporations all these and many more were sub jects on which the attorneys inter rogated the % members of the panel. Some of the questions asked were;
 Do you believe in the enforcement of the law against the export of arms 9"
 Are you a Socialist"
 Have you any sympathies in the Mexican political situation?'
 Do you know MT. BrOply?"
 Do you think it better not to allow them to ship munitions of war into Mexico.
 The quizzing grew tedious-unre- lieved by anything startling. Smoothly and without objection from either side, the attorneys delved for facts concern ing the venire until at 2:3O in the after noon all had been questioned.
 J B. Riland of Tucson, the juror questioned was the first and J. M. Ormsby the second to be challenged. Riland allowed he could not give fair judgment Morrison challenged Judge Sawtele took up the interrogation and denied the challenge. Morrison resumed his inquiry, but passed the juror, who got by him without question. Ormsby was so positive of his bias in favor of BrOphey he was excused.

POSSIBILITIES OF KODAK
Man Uses 1t as Effective Weapon in
Fight.

A common kodak played rather an
important part in a lively scrap be-
tween a couple of young men at Fifth
and Kansas avenues late yesterday af-
ternoon. Neither of the pair was ar
rested, and witnesses to the fight did
not ascertain what it was all about.
But one of them, who was carrying a
kodak, used it freely as a weapon,
and it proved a good one.
The first blow struck, it is said, was
by the owner of the kodak who hit
his opponent over the eye with a cor
ner of the machine. The other man
"came back" and for a time kept his
adversary too busy to use the machine.
In a moment, however, the kodak
came back, this time practically
knocking the second man out with a
blow on the back of the head.
The witnesses wondered if it would
mt be a good idea to define a kodak
as dangerous weapon, and prohibit
their being carried.

"BIG JOHN" Ran
AMUCK AT HOTEL
STRANGER IN THE CITY WAS AR
RESTED AT THE NoRDEN
HOTEL, HAD BEEN CHASING
PEOPLE AND Is CONSIDERED A
DANGEROUS LuNATic.

An unfortunate individual who
answers to the name of Big John" is
at the city prison. handcuffed and
otherwise prevented from doing injury
to himself and others.
John" was arrested last evening
by the police officers, as he was a
raving maniac, He had been at the
Norden hotel on upper Broadway and
had been chasing the women about the
hotel n it was feared that he
would do someone or himself injury.
He terrorized the place and finally the
police were sent for.
When they arrived big john was
lying in bed asleep and without giving
him an opportunity of doing further
damage they snapped the handouts
on him, took a big pair of shears that
he was carrying and brandishing about,
from him and then took him to the
city prison, where because of his
violence the handouts were not re-
moved. He will be sent to the county
court where the commission in lunacy
will look into the case.
The affair caused a good deal of ex-
element in that section of the city. A
search of the mans clothing failed to
give his name or where he came
from, but he told the officers that his
name is big john" and he is of
powerful build and as strong as a
horse, according to the policeman.
