CHARDOTTESVIDBE. VA., October 22. For tho third tlme wlthln a week, the Corporatlon CoUrt of Charlottesville has falled to -ecure slxtecri nlen compotent to slt ln Judgment upon McCue, the al¬ leged murderer of hla wlfe. Ono hundred and thlrty-nlne men have' been wummoned nnd all but a posslble; half dozen havo been subjectcd to a scarchlng examlnatlon. Three dlfferent and dtetont c,tles have becn v,Bl,etl and the State has gone to gTeat expense. The court and Us offlcers have rackcd thelr bralns In an ondouvor to set ln motlon tho ponderous machlnery of tho law and Btlll thero ls no beglnntng. Onco or twice, lt has soomed that al] obstacles had been overcome, but at t"n« cruclal moment, the cog -would sllp nnd back Into lts old lnanltion would sink tho half-started rovoliition upon whlch so "much depends. The State Has Been Stirred. The situatlon Ib unlaue ar.d aa a com"" mentary upon the now famous case, ls significant. Thero could bo no Imagined, no moro Btiiklng* evldence than thls of the manner In whloh tho murder of thls llttlo Charlottesville woman lias stirred tho State to lts very dc-pths. Into the court have come the promlnent mjn from . homes far removed from the scorre of tho tragedy. From tho dlfferent dlreetlons they havo como and yet not slxteen ^p'ut of 139 could meet tho rea.ulromcnts.of the law. Some objected to a convlcttoh' on. olrcumstantlal evldence and a few were opposed to capital punlshbent. But every man had read of the case and tha great majority of them entertalned an opinlon. of soine sort-that ls doou-roou ed or tentatlve. As for the ooln'on It- solf, lt was easy to read that lt was consls.tently ngalnst the accufced. A few lnsisted upon blurtlng out thls fact to tho npparent itmusernent of the Inscrut- able McCue. But Three From Fredericksburg. Tho Fredericksburg contingent prom- Ised much at the start, but proved even- tually .that lt could do no more than thoso from Richmond and Petersburg. At one moment durlng tho day, the panel was complete, but one Juror had to bo oxcused on aceour..t 'ot slckjicss and another was rjiled out. on a tech- rlcalirty. Tho gap thus created. was not fllled,- and, tiftcr tlie utmost exertlons, the court was compelled to admlt its fallure. When tho session endeel, three new nnmes had been addcu to the llst, and ono. old one had been strlcken off. Thls left a total of fourteen men.

The day In whloh theso fr-gmontary rosults were nccompllshed, proved, how- ever, to be Uio most Interestlng of the three. There was nottilnx tamo or dull about the Fredorlcksburg venlre. Ono man lnsisted on Informlng the court thnt ho believed McCue gullty or else knew who kllled hls wlfe. In the case of an¬ other, there developed an Interestlng sil- uatlon, iu whloh tho defense put R up to the court to decldo and In whlch tho court promptly acceptod the ehnllcnge, Jt was evldent from thls Incldent that Judge Morrls Ih taklng no chnnees with posslble fluceesstul exeeptions to hls rul- lngs, nnd that'lio Intends throughout to proceed wlth tho utmost care.

After a conference of nbout an hour the Jury ln the caso of James .Goode, charged wlth the rnurder of Polico In¬ spector J. F.

Sands for tho defense, ai.d by O;inmonwealth's Attorney D. C. Rlchrii-d3on for the prosecution. Tlio speeches wero strong on each sldo, but tho Jurymen had evidently made up thelr mlnds on the ovldence. The .defense endeavored to show that Foode had no cause for shooting.. Ho had acknowledged that ho kllled Rlchard Fox In aelfderfonse, and that he had been ln hldlng with the vlew of getting away from the. city, so that he could secure funds wlth Whlch to defend himself. Counsel argued that lt waa, accordlng to expert ovldence, Imposslble for a man on tbe ground to have infllcted the wound that caused the death Inspector Shinberger. but that lt oould have been made bysomo ono ln an elevaied posltlon. Evidence Reviewed. Mr. Rlchardson reviewed the evldenco. Ho showed that tho testlmony of Detec- tlvcs Glbson and McMahon tallled wlth tho statement made by Captaln Shin¬ bcrger himself Immedlatel}' after the shooting, and he brought out the point that Goode himself testified that ,Jte heard only two shots before he left the yard. Tho arguments closed at 5:15. and lt waa about an hour later that the verdlct was rendered. Bxceptlons were made by counsel for tho defense, and a motlon to set aslde as contrary to law and evld-orico was made.

After the killing Gnode disappeared. Hls identlty was not known at the tlme, but in a short- whllo Captaln 'Whitlock, Do- tectlves Wlltshlre and McMahon learnetl who the assassin was, and the'entlro force, under the dlrectlon of Chlef Huloe, wr^e on the trall. The shooting created the greatest ex- cltement. Almost everyjnan on the forco was put to work oh tno" case. Men who wereorf'duty volunteered to work extra, and for three days and nlghts every of- for't was mado to copturc the man. Fl¬ nally on the followlng Sunday Goode was caught In a chimp of bmhes in Henrlco county by Policemen Wlley nnd Gary nnd the county men, on tho mornlng In¬ spector Shlnberger dled. He confessed that he was tho man who shot Fox, and said ho hnd been In hldlng In the Second Street house. He said he was tho man who Jujnped from the wlndow nnd ran out tho gate, but he denled that be ehot'In- specftor Shlnberger. The case. was heard a't the July term of tlie Hustings Court by a jury from Lynchburg. Tho result was a hung Jury. The Jury, that heard the caso and brought ln tlie verdlct yesterday came from Clies- terfleld county. Goode was remanded to jail last nlght to awalt the result of the argument next Wednesday.

OLD FIGHTIS ON AGAIN

Ccrtain Members of City Com-mittce Would Have Secret

Sessions.

THE MOVE IS NOT POPULAR

A m'.ld sensation ho-i been provoked ln"

locaj polltlcal clroles by tho IntroductlonInto the Clty Democratic Commlttee on

Frlday nlght of an amendment to the

by-lawa ot the body, providlng that hero-

after 'all'a'Mal'one of the commlttee shall j-be held behlnd closed doors;' .' ,-/.'M >\

lt la a rencwal of tlie old flght, broughtup frequently. on former occaslons, tcT.;bave the party affalrs ot tho .clty con-1ducted ln secret, and from what couldbo learnod among. the members yester¬day. the amendment wlll llkely fall of

adoptlon.Those wbo wlll oppose It when it comes

up nt tho meetlng next Frlday nlght are

saying that the pavty.'a "oualneaa Is toa certaln extent public buslness, and thatthelr constltuents do not desire any"star chamber proceedlngs."

Mr. Saunders's Move.From all that con bo gathered, the

Impression seems to preva.11 that theamendment, whlch was presentcd by Mr.C. W. Saunders, of Clay Ward, grew out

of- condltions that havo arlsen over thoMasurier ordioance. which forblds cityeo.ploves from lioldlng seats in partycommittees. The publlcatlon ot the pro-ceodlngs of thebefdy with reference to thereslgnations of mernbers affected by theoidmnnce created a^ rlpple in the boay,and now the old battle- ls on agaln.¦Whllo Btrong leaders who have great

Influence ln the commlttee aro favorabloto the amendment for secret sessions, ltIb said that the "rank and fllo" willprobably outvote them, becauso the lat-Ur belleve that their constltuents havea rlght to know what they nro dolngfiorn timo to time In tbe interest ot tne

party's success.Under tho rules the amendment lays

Foode had no cause for shooting.. Hohad acknowledged that ho kllled RlchardFox In aelfderfonse, and that he had beenln hldlng with the vlew of getting awayfrom the. city, so that he could securefunds wlth Whlch to defend himself.Counsel argued that lt waa, accordlng

to expert ovldence, Imposslble for a manon tbe ground to have infllcted thewound that caused the death o£ InspectorShinberger. but that lt oould have beenmade bysomo ono ln an elevaied posltlon.

Evidence Reviewed.Mr. Rlchardson reviewed the evldenco.

Ho showed that tho testlmony of Detec-tlvcs Glbson and McMahon tallled wlththo statement made by Captaln Shin¬bcrger himself Immedlatel}' after theshooting, and he brought out the pointthat Goode himself testified that ,Jte heardonly two shots before he left the yard.Tho arguments closed at 5:15. and lt waa

cltement. Almost everyjnan on the forcowas put to work oh tno" case. Men whowereorf'duty volunteered to work extra,and for three days and nlghts every of-for't was mado to copturc the man. Fl¬nally on the followlng Sunday Goode was
