The first day of the trial of Mrs. Annie M. Bradley, on the charge of murdering former United States Senator Arthur lirowu, of Utah was consumed entirely in an effort to obtain a jury. When at 4 o'clock the court adjourned for the day, that preliminary was still Incomplete, notmen had been withstanding sixty-onexamined as to their competency to sit In the case. The day was without special incident, but the questions put by the attorneys fur the prosecution and til,1 defense served to define tc some extern the lines which will be followed by both sides of the case. It was made evident that the attorneys for Mrs. Bradley will dcpind upon tbe plea of Insanity ns their only defense. If there was any confidence in the plea of justification. It was not expressed. On the other hand, the prosecution manifested apprehension that the jury would lie Inclined to consider tbe case under the unwritten law and to shield tbe defendant from possible capital punishment on arcount of her sex, and the government spared no pains to procure assurance that there were no lurking convictions In the minds of the jurors which would stand In the way of warding punishment in accordance with the testimony on those accounts. because Many people were excused they were opposed to capital punishment for women. Mrs. Bradley was accompanied to the court room by her mother, Mrs. Madison, who remained during the forenoon session. After examining thirty talesmen a complete jury was secured Thursday morning. Of the talesmen excused and rejected, the majority expressed sentiments against the infliction of capital punishment on a woman, regardless of her crime. As completed the jury Is composed mainly of business men, all married excepting one, and nearly all fathers of families. Central y to nxpduuukbisvhe colored man, Adam Smith, was allowed to remain on the jury. He Is the youngest man In the box, being r24; Is the only single man and Is an undertaker.
