JURORS FOR
THE MAY TERM
NINETY EIGHT DRAWN YESTER-
DAY UNDER A LAW WHICH MAY
BE REPEALED.

with the legislature tinkering with
the jury law and likely to knock out
arrangements for a jury for the May
term of the Circuit Court, Judges Rob-
inson and De Bolt yesterday drew the
grand and trial juries for the term
which opens on May T. Judge Robinson
will preside at the term and the grand
jury was therefore drawn in his court
In all ninety-eight Jurors are summon
ed, "a grand jurors and 36 trial jurors
for each court. Judge Gear will flock
by his lonely as before attending to
chamber business, as he does not think
it is legal for more than one judge to
sit at once in term matters and will
not sit when other judges are sitting.
If the Legislature passes a new jury
act the jurors summoned yesterday,
under the old law, will have to be eX-
cused, and then there will not be time
to summon more for the opening of the
term The lawprOvides that the names
shall be drawn twenty days before the
opening of the term, and it was in conf
pLiance with this provision that the
names were placed in the hands of the
sheriff yesterday.
The legislature now has laws i'm pro-
gress to change the jury laws The
bailiff act has already been repealed.
but as neither De Bolt nor Robinson
acted under it in drawing juries, but
drew the names by chance from a box,
in open court, this does not matter II
a new law should be substituted for
the old statute under which they act
ed, however, the Summonses of Jurors
yesterday would be void, and when the
term opens the courts may be without
jurors.
