BALTIMORE JUROR FACES !
CHARGES OF CONTEMPT.
states Attorney Accuses George B.
Hitchcock of Preventing Fair
Discussion Of Case,
by the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press. -
BALTIMORE. June zs.-For the:
nrst time in The history of MARYLAND
contempt proceedings have been
iu.Cusht against Juror in the GRIM
maj court of Baltimore
This action was taken by States
Altorney Leach yesterday againss
IcorGe 3. Hitchcock, who was a
member Of the jury that recently
! aaGqul.ted nve men charged with rob-
| daylight last December, and which
was characterized at the time by Mr..
Leach as "a gross miscarriage OF
Justice =.
The states attorney filed with his
petition a number of affidavits of
other Jurors in the case. setting forth
the alleged misconduct of Hitchcock
in the jury box. and later behind
ciosed doors when the case was un-
der deliberation for five hours.
one OF the allegations sets forth
that Hitchcock. who, it was learned
later had a police record, conducted
himself in such a loud. boisterous
and disorderly manner as to prevent
an orderly, fair and impartial dis
cussion and consideration by his fell
low jurors of the evidence in the
case.
1t is further averred that he violat-
ed the courts instruction and dis
cussed the case with persons outside
the courthouse; that he voted to ac-
quit upon information possessed by
him before the production of any
evidence: that he waylaid and ap-
preached his fellow Jurors with the
statement that the whole case was
a frame-up by the police" and that
the police were trying to frame-up;
the men on trial just like they at
tempted to frame him up" in connec.
tion with certain gambling. and that
he had made the statement that he
would stay until hell froze over"
before he would vote to convict any
of the men ON trial.
Whether any action would be taken
] against any of the jurors States At
| torney Leach would not say. but he
F; said he was prepared to push the
case against Hitchcock to the limit.
| as He considered the acquittal of the
! men in the face of the evidence
| brought out at the trial was caicu-
lated to do great harm to the COM
| munity.
