SAN FRANCISCO, Cal. Aug. 26.
F. Drew CamlnettI, Indlcto under'the
Mann white slaro act for talcing Lola

for immoral purposes suffered a set
back in tho very opening momenta ot
his trial here today when Judgo Van

lj CamlnettI' lawyers for a change
ot venue to Sracramento.
Following the presentation of Oam
Inettl'a denied plea. Attorney Cbaa.
Harris, who, with Maury I. Dlggs,
faces a chargo ot subornation of per
jury In connection with tho notorious
cases, also asked a chango ot venuo
to Sacramonto. This Tequest was
taken under advisement by Judge
Yarn Fleet.
In support ot bis request Harris
gavo tho names of at least twonty
character witnesses among them be
ing specified tbo threo superior Judges
of Sacramento and District Attorney
Wachhorst ot tho saroo city.
Thero was little public interest
manifest In Camlnottl's when tho trial
was begun, tbo public apparently
realizing ' that tho preliminaries
would bo devoid ot sensation. Not a
slnglo woman was In court. Even
Dlggs, partner In Camlnettl's esca
pade, was absent. Tho crowd ot
talosmon, tho lawyers, tho Judgo, tho
prisoner and Harris, tho Involved at
torney, wore tho rauiatls personse.
Following tho 'presentation ot tho
CamlnettI and Harris pleas, tho ex
amination ot talesmen proceeded. It
la bolleved that so much publicity
has been given the trial that filling
tho Jury box will ho a telous task
and that tho calling of a new panel
Is probable.
First Talesman Accepted
The first talesman to be accepted
by both the defenso nnd prosecution
was William Adnms, a manufacturer.
Ho answered nil questions .satisfac
torily and was immediately sworn in
as tho first juror.
A procedure different from that
at tho Diggs trial in filling tho jury
box wns adopted at the outset of tho
Cuminetti case. Instead of waiting
until tho box is filled to exorcise
peremptory ohnllonges and excuse
prospeotivo jurymen for causo, this
being done as tho talesmen aro ex
amined. Already two talesmen have
been excused for cause. Tho gov
ernment also has exercised one per
emptory challenge.
