His Connection with the 6roninC Case Cost
Ing Him Dear.

Ex-Juror John Culver had until recently
fully determined to make an explanation
to the public Of his conduct while in the
Chicago jury room and to give his reasons
for acting as he did. Several weeks ago Mr..
Culver decided that he would issue an adj
dress, but lie still believed himself bound
by the compact OF secrecy made by the
eleven Jurors, and he set about securing
his release from the agreement. Hay-
ing secured his freedom from the COM
pact, Mr.. Culver had an interview
with his attorneys and they at once
sat down upon his project. They told
him that he could do his cause no good by
talking to the public any more and that his
libel suit against . morning newspaper
would not be aided by his explanation. Mr..
Culver was not In his Office when called
upon, but his brother, who
has been assisting him in securing
his release from his jury room con-
tract, was seen and said: John is just now
on the fence. and isn't decided us to
whether he will make a statement.
He believes, however, that he owes
the public some explanation in
view Of the fact that 30 many
statements have appeared in the papers,
none of which are true"
HAS Mr.. Culver's business suffered since
the trial?"
"Ishould say it had. He has already lost
$1,000 because of what he did,"
