Arthur Monk" Young, former
Tacoma saloonkeeper, took an
active part today In the selection
of the jury which is to decide his
guilt or innocence on the charge
of cashing a fraudulent state war
rant.
Practically the entire day was
devoted to the examination of
jurors.
The taking of testimony proba-
bly, will begin tomorrow. Eigh-
teen witnesses in all will be call
ed by the state. Many of them
were used in tn erecent rial Of
J. F. Gillies. The names of Gov.
Lister, Attorney General Tanner,
Insurance Commissioners Ernst,
Parker and Dagget appear on the
list.
The star witness for the state
will be Frank Stone, whose con-
fession led to the arrest of Young.
Stone, 1t is alleged, forged the
nameo I John Morgan to a war
rant for $4,000, which was CASH
ed at Young's saloon.
Stone claims Young was aware
of the fraudulent sifnature and
cashed the check knowing 1t had
been forged. Assistant Attorney
General Thompson informed the
Jury that Young was guilty Of

STOEVEiS DENIES

c. F. w. Stoever has publicly
denied the persistent rumors that
the councilmanic fight has re-
solved itself into wet" and
dry issue.
From various sources rumors
have been emanating during the
past few days that Stoever would
be inclined to close one eve, re-
garding city enforcement of pro-
hibition, IL he were commissioner
of public safety. Petit has al
ways demanded strict enforce
ment of the law.
Stoever declares that the ru-
mors are emanating from his enc
mics and are not founded on
truth. Former Police Chief A. P.
LOOMS, who is one of Showers
campaign managers, also insists
that the rumors are merely cam
paign material cooked up" to
hurt the candidate.
But from many sources, par.
ticularly the "near-beer Saloons "
the report continues in circula.
ton. Also, a study of the pri.
mary returns would indicate that
the vets were for Stoever.

Young On Trial In
State Fraud Case

first degree forgery just as much
as if he had signed the warrant
himself.
Much stress was laid in the cx-
animation of the jurors as to
their prejudices against Young
for his interest in the liquor bus
mess. George Tibbits, a choir
leader and a prominent church
man, said he could give Young a
square trial.
Donald McGregory asked to be
excused from serving on the jury,
claiming deafness. When he ex-
planned he worked in a boiler fac
tory and was often forced to open
the doors to let the noise out, the
court decided he could have a
front seat in the jury and
thought it possible he could get
bit of the evidence. His plea
was denied.
