bEXAR JURY
WHEEL HAS
BUSY WEEK
First Emptied, Then Filled,
Then Emptied and Now
It's Filling Again.

Finnegan, the famous "in-agin, off
agin, on-agin" hero of song, has rival
for quick changes in the "person" Of
the Bexar county jury wheel.
Now it's filled, now it's empty, now
it's being filled. now it's empty again,
and the work of filling it is starting
all over again.
That, in brief, tells how the jury
wheel has been conducting itself dur
ing the last week.
But the wheel, in truth, is not
really to be blamed for the success
sion of quick changes. Lay the blame,
rather, at the door Of state laws
which permit of many and divergent
translations.
WHEEL is RE-FILLED.
The trouble started when Judge w.
W. McCrory sustained a motion OF
o. B. Black, attorney for a negro
charged with attack, to quash the
jury venire in the Ninety-fourth Dis
trict Court because the jury wheel
had been illegally filled.
The five district judges Of Bexar
county then held q meeting and de-
cided the wheel should be emptied
and refilled with names taken from
the tax assessors lists.
That was done. All Of the old
names in the wheel were destroyed
and five deputy officers began the
work Of refilling the wheel by writ
ing names taken from the assessors
lists.
THAT'S WRONG, TOO.
After two days they had written
5000 names and placed them within
the wheel.
Then the judges held another meet
ing Thursday afternoon, and again
Friday morning, decided that the
5000 names had been incorrectly writ
ten and ordered them destroyed.
That, too, was done and the jury
wheel found itself vacant once more.
Discussions, arguments, varied
translations Of the law as it regards
the filling of jury wheels by the
judges, attorneys, clerks and others
cLout the courthouse failed to clarity
the atmosphere Friday.
WOEK STARTS AGAIN.
However, it was finally decided
that the names should be taken from
the assessors lists and that the work
should be done in the assessors pri-
vate office. So Tax Assessor Albert
V. HUH turned over his books and
his private office to the deputies late
Friday and the work of filling the
jury wheel began anew.
Above the clouds Of discussion Fri
day floated the rumor that a test
suit might be filed to get the matter
before the highest state court for de-
cision.
Just how this will be done has not
been decided, but several attorneys
declared they were in favor of such
suit so as to settle all future litiga-
ton over the filling of the jury wheel.

BREAK RECORDS.

Spinach movements out of the state
up to the present time are four times
what they were Mt this time last year,
according to ]. Austen Hunter, market
news specialist, who returned Saturday
after an inspection tour of the south
end Of the state.
Approximately 10 per cent, or $50 of
the total of 1888 car lots of spinach
shipped in a nation up to January 10,
Mr.. Hunter said, was shipped from
Texas.
Farmers during the last week in the
Laredo and Winter Garden sections,
he said, were realizing approximately
200 per cent on their spinach crop.
RAIN HELPS OUTLOOK.
Rain which started falling Friday
night, he said, has materially bright
ened the outlook and practically as
sures, not only an enhanced quality
of product, but an increase in ship
ments in the coming weeks.
Recent cold snaps, Mr.. Hunter
found on his trips, did little or nc
damage to the average truck crop and
while about 80 per cent of the spinach
froze, a general beneficial result was
realized. The cold, he said, prevented
a glut and a serious break in the mar
