'Evidence Msnr' Excused.
Courtroom Crowded.
ST. JIELKNS. Or.. May 19. (Spe
cial.) John A. Pender was placed on
trial In the Circuit Court here today
before Judge Campbell for the alleged
murder of Daisy Wehrman and the task
of securing a jury was begun. At S
o'clock the regular panel of Jurymen
was exhausted and the Sheriff was or
dered to summon a special venire of
-i to report Friday.
When court took a recess there were
six Jurymen who had been passed for
cause, as follows: J. P. Archibald,
farmer of Gobi; O R. Hyde, farmer of
Yankton; Jamea Faltten-t. Umberman
of Leer Island: Andrew Erlckson. far
mer of Clatskanle: H. M. Olson, farmer
of Marshland, and William Anderson,
retired, of Scappooae.
The principal reason for the excusing
of so many of the prospective Jurymen
waa their opposition to brlnsrlng In a
verdict on circumstantial evidence, al
though a few were excused on account
of tehlr conscientious scruples against
capital punishment.
From the questions asked or the
Jurora. It Is evident that the state will
rely entirely upon circumstantial evi
dence to convict Fender, while the de
fense will rely upon the failure of the
state to make a case and also endeavor to
prove an alibL There are about 40 wit-
nesses In attendance and the case In all
probability, will reach well Into next
week, before It Is concluded.
The courtroom was filled with spec
tators and witnesses at both sessions

trict Attorney of Hlllxboro. and M. K.
Miller, Deputy for Columbia County,
