BANK TRIALS Prosecutor Hawk's Moore lias asked the court for an extension of time to present arguments in the motion of attorneys for P. I). Mines, Indicted In relation to the Hank of Jacksonville failures, for a change of venue on the ground of prejudice. The prosecutor was originally granted until Tuesday morning for this purpose. The court Intimated then that ho might grant the plea for a change of venue. The prose cutor will fllo affidavits contending that the prejudice alleged against the defendant Is not sufficient to prevent hi ni from securing a fair trial. Prosecutor Moore said Tuesday afternoon that he had no strenuous objections to one case, or even two be ing transferred to another county, but that there were twolvo cases and 67 Indictments in the bank cases, and that the granting of ono might result In an. avalanche of motions for changes of venue and that with a precedent established they might reasonably ex pect to be granted. This would result in heavy additional expense to the county, and tho moving of a large part of the machinery of tho prosecutor's office away for an extended period.
