The Supreme Court of Illinois,
in the disbarment proceedings
instituted against Judas Cole
man, a Chicago attorney, by
States Attorney Deneen and the
bar association of Cook county,
denied the motion of REALTORS.
Justice Kicks stated in his opin.
ion that Coleman admitted that
he had been sentenced to the
penitentiary in Indiana in 1881
for conspiracy to obtain money
fro II an insurance company, but
that he had been pardoned by
the Governor, and removed to
Illinois, where, in 1894 he was
admitted to the bar. and that
since that time he has properly
conducted himself. The REALTORS
had asked that Coleman be dis
barred on his own answer and
without further hearing. The
Court says: 1.-The opportunity
and the hope held out to all men
to repent and to correct their
ways, if they have been wrong,
are the only possible Incentives
that the law can know about that
can work the reformation Of men
who have gone wrong. If it.
shall appear that from that time
10 the time of his admission to
the bar respondent lived a cor
rect and upright life, it would be
a severe rule as matter of law
to lay down that we could not
recognize the possibility of re
pentance, and say that any man
who had ever had stain on his
character can never enter this
profession.

The prisoners were convicted of MUIR
der in the first degree. A motion for
a new trial was denied. They have ap-
pealed from the order and judgment.
In impaneling the trial jury Richard
Barry was examined, touching his
qualification as a juror. He stated in
substance that he thought he had con-
versed with some of the witnesses.
and with person who pretended 10
know the facts that he had read news
paper accounts of the crime; that he
had heard and read that deceased had
been killed on a freight train east IF
Lovelock, about August Goth last, and
prior to his death had identified the
prisoners, or some of them, as the
guilty parties. That he had formed
and expressed an opinion with refer
ence to the guilt or innocence Of the
prisoners; that his opinion became
fixed and definate at the time he read
and heard CT the offense and he thea
had such opinion based upon what
he had heard and that he had express
ed that opinion.
He was then challenged on the
ground that he had formed and ex
pressed an unqualified opinion as TO
the guilt or innocence of the accused.
In cross examination by the prose-
cution he testified that his mind was
not then in condition to render Yer
dict against the prisoners from what
he had heard that his opinion was
formed upon general rumors and from
what he had read in the newspapers
that he would not refuse to give any
one a fair trial and rest his verde
upon the law and evidence; that i
what he had heard and read was true
the prisoners were guilty, and if untrue
were not guilty of the offense charged
and if sworn as juror he would la.
aside anything he had heard and rrN
the case upon the evidence and Law
and render true verdict accordingly
The Court then ased him the follow
ing question: l understand yo
to say you are conscious that if you ar
sworn and accepted as juror, yo
could put aside everything you have
heard and read and try the case &C
cording to the evidence and the lay
and give the defendants fair and in
partial trial To which he answered
could. The Court overruled the chal
lenge. Defendants whose premptor,
challenge were exhausted before III
completion of the jury excepted.
