this morning in Supreme Justice Sea-
bury's court The speed with which
five jurors were chosen yesterday

ness of the first Becker trial when
only one juror was accepted on the
opening day.

emily confident in the prisoners box,
and his wife, eagerly attentive, sit
ting near, examination of new
panel OF 100 talesmen was begun to-
day while the five already chosen sat

was still aligned with the defence's
battery OF lawyers.

court the examination of talesnen
was quickly proceeded with The
first three called were excused for
bias. the fourth was challenged by
the defense. the fifth was biased, and
