ASK JURY MINUTES
IN WARD MURDER
Court Issues Order to Show
Cause Why Request Should
Not Be Granted
PREJUDICE is ALLEGED
BY the Associated Press

White Plains. y. ". June Y.vSu.
premc Court Justice Scegcr today
granted Walter s. Wards application
for on order requiring District Attorney
Weeks to show cause tomorrow why
Ward should not be permitted to inspect
the minutes Of the Grand Jury which
indicted him for the first degree mur
der Of Clarence Peters. Inspection Is
sought as preliminary to all cnort
to unset the indictment on the ground
that it was not based on adequate cvi-
dencc.
Ward alleged that one Of the grand
hlrors--Auckland B. Cordncr. its fore. IL.
mau-,was prejudiced against him.
Cnrdncf. It was. set forth. had been n
candidate for the police commissioner
shin to which Ward was appointed.
Tho order. MS granted by Justice
Seegcr. also directed Mr.. Weeks to
show cause why the June term Of court
should not bc held over into July 70
try Ward. Unless 1t Is held over or the
indictment against him is dismissed
Ward will have to spend the summer IN
Jail.
Judging from q statement made yes
tcrday by Mr.. Mills. Ward will so into
rho triai In the hope Of winning out IN
the biggest game OF chance IN
which he has ever sat. Ills
life will be at stake, but nc
will not show his hand unless the
prosecution calls him. Then. and then
only. according to Mr.. Mills. VIII nc
reveal the closely guarded secret or tue
blarkmail plot. which he said made nm
pcy the cxtortionists $50 900 before he
shot Peters. The telling Of this story,
Mr.. Mills says. would assure ward
acquittal. but It would also bring
humiliation upon Wards family.
Therefore, it will not bc told unless the
prosecution presents so strong n case
that Ward appears to be actually III
the shadow OF the electric chair. -
"Evcrything relating to the defense
will be brought out ut the trial. if il
secms to he necessary said Mr.. Mills.
"You cant blame him for not wishing
to bring humiliation upon his family
until IL is absolutely necessary. II
the prosecution seems to make case,
VIC will. Of course. make as complctc =
statement rs any one could ask.
"Cntil my Investigations have been
completed. am not going to move the
case for trial" said District Attorney
Weeks last night. "Many man has

that they killed n nian--mcn who have
declared they were innoc"nt--havc beer
