JURY IS NEARLY
 COMPLETED FOR NEW HAVEN CASE
Both Sides Use Peremptory
 Challenges on Temper / ary Selections.

New York, Oct. 15.-Twelve tentative jurors, selected yesterday in the trial of William Rockefeller, Lewis Cass Iedyard, Edward D. Robbins, and eight, other directors, past and present of the New York. New Haven & Hart ford railroad, charged with conspiracy under the sherman law, took their seats in the jury box when court opened today to await the possible use of peremptory challenges of. counsel.
 Attorneys for the government and for the defendants had, in yesterdays proceedings, excused one of the twelve challenges allotted to them.
 George B. Raymond, sitting as No. 5, who said yesterday that he had an
 antipathy'' for the sherman law and thought it ought to be amended, was the first against whom the government today exercised a peremptory cha1- 1enge.
 He was succeeded in the chair by George Wheatley, an employe of a dry goods firm. WheatIey said that he did not have high opinion of the sherman law but thought he could render a verdict irrespective of his view to the wisdom of the law He was temporarily accepted. The de- fense then challenged Bred F. Waters. in chair No. z.
 James H. Carton, a business man ager, proved tentatively satisfactory as his successor, and the government then challenged William G. Accles, No. H. who yesterday testified that he had been associated withs John D. Rocke- felIer, Jr., in church work.
 Thesnext talesman, Francis J. Rhue, mad not heard the names of the de- fendants read and as Delaney Nicol1, of their counsel, repeated the list, re- beating the various high positions. of each Judge Hunt interrupted:
 II think we can dispense with that - he said It is sufficient to identify the gentlemen without mentioning the honorable positions they have held That is in the nature of character evil denee which is proper at another
