Show ATTORNEY REJECTED AS JUROR IN CASE The J125.000 libel suit of William R. Jones, Jr., against the Salt Lake Tribune Trib-une and others was commenced this morning before Judge Ritchie. The attention at-tention of the court was consumed in trying to secure a Jury from the special venire of thirty names which were drawn last Friday. At noon no Jurors had been accepted. An interesting feature of the case this morning was the appearance in the Jury box of Atorney w R. White, former assistant attorney-geenpal of the State. His name had been drawn from the Jury box and he made his appearance in answer to the summons. He was informed in-formed by the court that he could use his right of exemption if he so desired. He refused ot do so, but was later excused ex-cused for cause. It is doubtful if a Jury will be secured se-cured today. |
