Eighteen months in McNeill's Island peniten tiary was the sentence im posed today by Federal Judge R. S.

The dis charge of a juror breaking the first panel obtained in the trial of William I). Shepherd, charged with murder and jury tampering charges, brought a double sensa tion in Judge Thomas J. Lynch court In the criminal courts build ing today. "We have Information that should bo investigated, before a Jury is sworn In on this case." former Judge Robert K. Crowe, state's attorney, declared In ans wering wyiiam Scott Stewart, chief defense counsel, who de manded that Judge Crowe be stopped from further inquiry as to possible jury tampering. Harold Pillar, 22, the youngest man on the jury, a member of the first panel of four, the only jur ors thus far sworn in, broke the panel today when he confided to the court, in the presence of the defendant Shepherd, and the at torneys In the case that he had an opinion in the case and was opposed to capital punishment. When examined for jury ser vice, pillar had not said he would not subscribe to capital punish ment, but apparently conscien tious scruples led him overnight to divulge 'his belter. He first spoke to a bailiff and then was called into chambers by Judge Lynch, who also summoned tho defendant and counsel. Pillar said he had reached an opinion and wanted to inform the court that h'e could not believe in eanltal punishment. lie then was discharged, leaving only three Jurors In the box. The second hih point wns re corded, when Attorney Stewart appealed to Judg"a Lynch to call a halt on State's Attorney Crowe's jury tampering inquiry. Stewart asserted that every day the. news papers were coming out In bold headlines referring to the tamper ing charges and that If this con tinued It would be virtually Im possible to obtain a Jury. He as serted that 'JndKO Crowe was con ducting n newspaper campaign as an aid to his political ambitions. Hean moved restlessly in his chair.
