JUROR COULD NOT WRITE
BARTON MILLER'S TRIAL MUST
BEGIN ALL OVER.
Twelve Men Discharged From Box
and a New Venire Is Called
by Court.

Disqualification because he could neith-
err read nor write of juror in the trial
of the embezzlement charge against John
Barton Miller, formerly secretary treas
urer of the First Cooperative Building
Association of Georgetown, resulted to-
day in starting the trial anew.
Justice Stafford decided to discharge
the eleven other men who had been
sworn with the incompetent juror and
to allow the summoning of another
venire.
The court held that the five members
of the regular April panel. who were
not challenged either by the government
or defense, might constitute a nucleus
about which to complete the regular panel,
as though the other twenty-one jurors
were sick or legally excused. Accord
ing1y. he directed the clerk to summon
fifty talesmen to report this afternoon
for the purpose of completing the regu-
lar panel OF twenty-six jurors.
Should the panel be filled the ordinary
examination by the government and de-
Tense will then begin in order to discover
If any of the accepted jurors Is peculiarly
disqualified to try this particular case.
The exercising of the ten challenges by
each side will be resorted to and an ac-
ceptable jury secured by Monday at the
latest.
The jury must be completed by Mon
day. as the jury term expires on that
day. and failure to secure competent
jury before Tuesday would require a
third examination of talesmen.
