filed a petition yesterday with the supreme
court. appealing to that body for writ of

and Judge Frank H. Dunno from trying
the case.
A similar application is made for writ
Of prohibition against Judge Carroll Cook
on behalf of one of the six carmen indicted
June 20 by the grand jury on charge OF

all six cases
The attorneys for the indicted officials of

an intention of fling similar briefs.
The petitioners in praying for the writ
rely largely upon the opinion given recently

In his opinion Judge Cook held that acts
of the grand jury since the new grand jury
panel was drawn in February last are
