The capture of the two* other D’Autremont boys created con siderable more interest in the case, which had become extremely uninteresting, although the at tendance was still very email. - Hngh Is Bothered The defendant plainly showed this morning that the news of the capture of his two brothers in Ohio had affected him. Whea he entered the court room, he seemed more nervous than usual, and the conversation between him and his parents were more frequent dur ing the day’s sessions.

Whan asked if he had stated a fixed opinion to Mr. Payne yesterday, Mr. Luke replied he had not. He admitted he had expressed opin ions, but contended he still felt he equid act fairly as a Juror. The defense challenged him tor cause, which the prosecution resisted. Luke was questioned by Judge Thomas, who later ruled he was rtlll eligible.
