TEN HAINS JURORS ACCEPTED

Real Battle For Life of Captain Likely to Begin Today. Flushing, L. 1., April 27. —With ten jurors accepted and the peremptory challenges allowed by law to each side nearly exhausted, It is likely that today will see the box filled and the real battle begun for the life of Captain Peter C. Hains, Jr., on trial for the murder of William E. Annis. Should a commission in lunacy to determine the defendant’s present mental condition be applied for it will be ordered either court or on application of District Attorney Dewitt as soon as any evidence of Insanity is presented to the jury by the defense.
