They wanted to keep the Constitution a secret because a leakage of information can spell treason for going against the established government, which at the time, was Articles of Confederation.

Why did convention delegates decide t keep the proceedings secret?
The Constitutional Convention exceeded its authority in writing a new Constitution and it was feared that if deliberations on a new Constitution were to be found out, the Convention would be dissolved. The Convention was supposed to work out amendments to the Articles of Confederation that would keep that document in effect but improve on its inherent weaknesses. It was soon apparent to the delegates that saving the Articles of Confederation by amendment was hopeless, so they began to create a new form of government entirely. This was a task, the delegates had no authority to do.
