CINCINNATI, Ohio, June 16.-In line
with the decision OF the second circuit
court Judges of Ohio, in which he was
conceded the right to elect upon which of
the two perjury indictments against
George b. Cox he would proceed to trial.
County Prosecutor Henry T. Hunt made

the clerk of the courts two affidavits of
bias and prejudice directed, respectively,
at Presiding Judge Charles j. Hunt, now
sitting on the criminal bench of the COM
mon pleas court. and Judge William B.
Dickson. trial judge in the Cox case.
Charged With Favoring Cox.
Charges Of bias favorable to Cox and
prejudice against the prosecutor person
ally are made in both affidavts. Judge
Hunt was the target of one affidavit be-
cause. If only Judge Dickson were to be
named, Presiding Judge Hunts function
of naming an alternate judge would not
be impaired.

turned from Dayton today with a copy of
the formal entry made by the circuit
judges there. which is a modification both
Of the copy prepared by the state and
that prepared by himself, Prosecutor

the two indictments, as the circuit court
decision gave him the right to do, signified
that he will proceed on the first and
Judge Dickson today quashed again the
revivified indictment against Cox charg-
ing him with peEllry. The action came
after the aff1davits charging Dickson
with bias and prejudice had been filed by
the prosecutor. but the court held that
this could not affect his ruling, as 1t was
taken on a motion for a rehearing filed
before the affidavits.
