the defendants as members Of It, had no
such basis or JUST ication as had the pre-
JUDGE Of the juror challenged in the
Spies case. For these + asons the major
ity Of the supreme bench were of the
opinion that the lower court erred in
overruling the challenges to the two jur-
ors in question, and SO they ordered a
new trial for Coughlin and remanded
the case to the criminal court of Cook
county.
Dan Coughlin, in accordance with this
decision, was removed to the county jail
to await new trial, the date OF which
has not yet been set. Burke and O'Sul-
Ivan, were they alive, would get a new
trial likewise. Many of those who tig-
ured in the Cronip trial as suspects and
witnesses have ended their earthly career,
and Longenecker, the states attorney
who conducted the prosecution, has been
removed from office and is succeeded by
Mr.. Kern, one Of whose assistants is
O'Malley, warm friend of Coughlin.
John E. Beggs, senior guardian OF
camp 20, has shufaed off his mortal coil;
DR.. Lewis, who was working on Cronin's
teeth before his death, has passed away,
and SO has Oman, the livery man, one OF
the witnesses for the state. Three other
witnesses for the state-the McInerny
girls and Nieman are numbered with the
dead. Edward Spellman, of Peoria, died
from the effects of fall from ladder;
Tom Desmond, Of San Francisco, is a
permanent cripple; Matt Danehy, the
saloonkeeper, never prospered in business
after the trial and left Chicago; Michael
Cannon, a bartender in Dlnan's saloon,
died of pneumonia; Frank Shea, a Wit
ness, fell victim to the same fell de-
stroyer; Peter McGeshan, Of Philadel-
phia, died between the coroner's inquest
and the trial; Robert Gibbons was killed
by police officer; Luke Jordan, sHs-
pect, has joined the majority, and Frank
Woodruff, alias Black, who always MAIN
tanned that he was the driver of the white
horse, died the other day. Kunze, who
was sentenced with Coughlin, Burke and
O'Sulllvan, was granted a new trial three
years ago and was acquitted. He is still
living. Mertes, the milkman, disap-
peared few weeks after the close OF the
trial, and Carlson, Of the notorious cot
tage, left for Europe and has never re-
turned. It is said that the evidence
given by the dead and absent witnesses
will hold good in law at the new trial,
but the attorneys for Coughljn can
weaken their testimony, if possible, by the
evidence OF living persons who may come
forward. Coughlin and his friends are
naturally jubilant over thedecision of the
supreme court. His father and brother
who reside in Hancock, Mich, and his
wife who lives at Ishpeming, in the same
state, have always believed in his inno-
|cence. Els attorneys will try to secure
his release on bail pending the new trial.

according to the law and the evidence.
His impartiality should appear bafore he
is permitted to take the oath. If he is
not impartial then, his oath cannot be re-
lied upon to make him so. In the terse
and expressive language of Lord Coke,
the juror should "stand Indifferent as he
stands unsworn."
The learned jurist showed the differ
ence in the Spies and Cronin cases as to
the challenge of jurors. In the Spies
case the juror was not disqualified by de
claring prejudice against Anarchists,
as that was prejudice against an unlaw
'ful and criminal organization, whose
theories, il carried into effect, would in
.volve the destruction of law and govern
ment. The Juror in the Spies case was
competent upon the principle thata man
may have 8 prejudice against crime and
still be q competent juror. Ia the Gro

The smart man was getting off a
train, when he saw a couple ahead
of him, who at once challenged his
attention and indignation. The
husband was walking off with his
hands in his pockets, while the wife
carried baby andea large basket
and avalise.
This was too much for the smart
man and, stepping upto the over
loaded woman, he said:
"Let me assist you madame"
and, Selling the basket and valise,
he ran after the husband, whom he
grabbed without ceremony.
"Here, sir, carry these things for
your wife. I should think you
would be ashamed to cali yourself
a man, and permit your wife to
bear all the burdens in this way.

mans utmost eloquenceto convince

not a sneak thief, instead Of a-self-
appointed reformer Of other PEG
