NEW YORK, April 10 l9.-At the
close of the second day of the examna-
ton of talismcn to try Mrs. Ruth
Brown Snyder and Henry Judd Gray
for the murder of Albert Snyder, only
one juror had been selected. Since the
trial opened Monday more than four
score prospective jurors have been
examined.
or 81 prospective jurors examined
today, only one, William ll. Young,
press agent for a Broadway hotel,
proved satisfactory to the district at
torney and attorneys for the defend
ants Young automatically became
foreman.
On the first day of the trial SO men
of the panel filed in and out of the
jury box without one beirg permitted
to remain Today, in an effort to add
another juror to the foreman, Justice
Townsend Scudder continued the court
session long past the usual hour for
adjournment but in vain. That the
search for a jury will be a long one
was indicated by the ability of attor-
neys for the defendants to practice
economy with their preemptory chal-
lenges Eighty-seven men have been
called to the bar in two days and only
is defense challenges have been used,
nire by Mrs. Snyder and six by Gray.
The district attorney has challenged
four preemptorily.
Eleven We're told to stand aside today
"for cause" when they told the court
that they had conscientious scruples
against inflicting the death penalty.
Three men acquainted with counsel
were excused. Then revealed opinions
so fixed and definite that evidence
would be required to change them. One
was excused by consent and the pre-
siding judge excused another.
The defendants remained composed
throughout the long court day. Still
sitting 10 feet apart with the back Of
Gray's head in front of his former
paramour, there was no exchange of
glances.
Several times Mrs. Snyder consulted

ONE DEAD AND
ONE JAILED IN
MOVIE TRIANGLE

HOLLYWOOD, Calf, April 10 H9.-
Paul Kelley, stage and screen actor,
held for investigation following the
death this morning of Ray Raymond,
musical comedy actor, today told news
paper reporters that he and Raymond
had engaged in fist fight after Kelley
had admitted that he was in love with
Raymond's wife, Dorothy MacKaye,
actress.
Raymond. who was SO years old and
the husband of Dorothy MacKaye
actress, returned to his home last Fri
day from nationwide tour in the
musical comedy company of Castles
in the Air.
Detectives who investigated declared
that negro maid in the Raymond
home witnessed the fight, the origin
of which has not been given.
Miss Mackaye was reported in a
state of nervous collapse and under
the care of a physician. Deputy Dis
trict Attorney e. j. Jennison was to
question Kelley this afternoon. The
actor had recently appeared in support
of Eddie Cantor in the film, Special
Delivery" and also in the picture,
slide, Kelly, Slide"
Kelley denied that he had admins
trated a brutal beating, which police
believe caused the death of Raymond.
He said he had merely punched him
several times" but that he had not
kicked the actor and was very much
surprised that he died"
A heated argument preceded the
battle, according to Kelley's story, in
the course of which Kelley told Ray
mond he was in love with the latter's
wife. Raymond demanded that the
statement be retracted This Kelley
refused to do. The fist fight ensued,
Kelley said, witnessed only by Ray
nond's four-year- old son and Miss
Mackaye's negro maid.
"Questioned by the police, Kelley ad-
mitted that Raymond was a smaller
man than he and that Raymond told
him he was tired out and did not want
to fight.
II told him that he wasn't tired but
just yellow clear through and that he
was taking that means of avoiding the
thrashing intended giving him,
Kelley declared.
Miss Mackaye also told the officers
that her friendship for Kelley was
responsible for the fight between the
two men,.
she said that their friendship was
.,elean and noble" but admitted that
there had been some talk Of marrying
after a separation from her husband,
from whom she had decided to part.
She made her statement from her
bed, having been under a physician's
care for several days. She was in a
state of collapse most of today" Paul
and / were kids together" she said.
