The defense then questioned Lehman, Anspaugh and further questioned Milton Girod. There were still six of the first panel of 12 occupying seats. They were W. A. Lower, Charles Gage, Albert Heckman, Herman Gillig. Milton Girod and FranE Heistand. The defense challenged Mr. Caston on a preemptory challenge. Wilmer Worthman. juror number 27 was called to fill the vacancy., After questioning the defense pass-1

ed the jury back to the state tentatively. The state excused Herman Gillig on a preemptory challenge. The jury was called to the box at 9:05 o’clock this morning, c. I L. Walters entered the case as cocounsel for defendant Joseph Ev-' erett. With only three or four names left on the special venire Judge D. B. Erwin ordered the jury commissioners to draw 10 more veniremen. The drawing resulted in the following: Clement R. Gottschalk, Monroe township; Charles Jones, Blue 1 Creek township; Henry Schulte. Decatur; Alfred Ryf, Monroe township; Bert Haley, Decatur; 1 Fred Blum. Monroe township; Eugene Farlow, Wabash town-; ship; Frank Aurand, Washington’ township; H. R. Mankey. Kirkland township; Joseph L. McConnell, Washington township. The new venire was ordered to j appear at 1:30 o'clock this afternoon in the sheriff’s office. At the opening this morning, number 5 seat on the jury, vacated late Monday before the jury retired was filled by Reed Caston. Caston was questioned by C. J. Lutz. He stated that he was a Preble township farmer, residing near the Allen county line and 1 that he had never served on a jury. He also added that he was not against capitol punishment. The state excused Mrs. Jennie Edwards because she said she did not believe in capitol punishment. The removal was for cause. Albert Huser then was called. ! He stated that he resided in Mon-1 roe township and that he was a i farmer. Huser said he was op- ’ posed to capitol punishment. The state used its first pre-1 ejnptory challenge and excused Edwin Neadstine. Rufus Huser was called. He is a brother of Albert Huser. He stated he was I a Wabash township farmer and i that he was not opposed to capitol punishment. The state passed the jury tentatively. Attorney DeVoss, for defendant, then questioned Albert Huser. After a short probing aimed at Rufus Huser the defense excused him. It was a preemptory challenge. Jacob J. Amstutz, of Amish faith was called. He said ha was opposed to self defense and capitol punishment. The defense then passed the jury tentatively. The state excused Benjamin Eiting. It was the state's second preemptory challenge. Jacob Rawley was called to take seat number 12 in place of Eiting. He said he resided in Wabash township. At noon today a jury looked more hopeless than at the same time yesterday. Twenty-fifve jurors beside the regulars had'been called. Five of these were ordered to fill the regular panel, five were excused premntorily and fifteen had been excused for cause. Nine men and two women had chairs in jury box at noon but it was expected that several of these would be excused before the jury is accepted. Thomas Rawley expressed rather determined ideas as to guilt or innocense, said he ilid not believe in self defense except as a last resort nor, in capitol punishment in any manner. The state challenged Jacob J. Amstutz and Albert Huser. because they expressed scruples against capitol punishment. William F. Stepler, French township, bachelor, owns farm, not opposed to capital punishment but not strong for self defense. Asked if be thought a man had a rUht to shoot an assailant even if he had made advances. Mr. Stepler caused a ripple of smiles when he replied: "I don’t know, I never got into that kind oi a scrape.” Donald Jieitler, Berne, employee at Dunbar factory, had expressed opinion, had It yet and was opposed to capital punishment. The jury was passed tentatively by the state but later Mr. Beitler was excused for cause. So far the state has used two premptory challenges of their twenty and the def use has used three. Attorney DeVoss examined Step- | ler, Rawley, Caston and Beitler and then passed the jury back to til state. Mr. Caston said he did not I believe a man had the right to take life even in self defense but that he : did believe in capital punishment because that is done officially. Immediately after the three o'clock recess Monday afternoon, tile state turned the jury back to the defense and Attorney LeVoss immediately began a second careful examination az to their fitness to sit in judgment in the case. He first questioned Mi i. Fryback and Mrs. Edwards and then re-examin-

ed all the others, dwelling particul--1 arly on the rights of one to defend himself and undqr all clrcumstan|ces, to stand his ground and to return blow for blow. Milton Girod said that perhaps a man ought to accept an injury rather than attempt to kill but doubted if one could under the circumstances usually surrounding such an occurrence. One question propounded to each i juror was "Do yo übelieve that if the de'endant ceased the attack and later decided that further defense on his part was necessary to protect himself from injuries, he would be justified in using any I weapon to stop that force, in other words would a renewed attack bepermissable in your estimation?” A number of special chairs have | been a ranged in the court room ; and Judge Erwin has announced | 1 several times that the public is wel-1 | come but that order must be kept i ’ and stated that the court would ap- 1 I preciate it if those desiring to at-1 tend would come before court opens I I so as not to disturb the trial of the I case.
