' TUR ATTENDANGCE. The trial of Alexander Sullivpn for the mur- der of Francls Hanford was resumed In tho Criminal Court yesterday morning. Ason tho previous day overy scat had an occupant, and, though both sessions weére taken up by the ex- amination of jurors, tho proccedings wero watched with Intenso fntorest, and nothing es- caped the speetators, A score or more of small politiclans wera prosent, and it was remarked that their familiarity with the accused was ' hurt- ing lis case,” The audience was made up moat~ 1y of Sullivan's countrymen, but there were ev- idently & fow whose sympathies were not with him, as o remark of Mr. Ileed’s was recefved with falnt applause, Neither Mrs. Sulllvan nor Mrs. Hanford was in atiendunce, but the witnesses for tho prosccution wero In the room or within easy reach. There would soem, however, to be little use for them to hover around wu court, sinco selecting a jury Is attended with"inany difliculties. The defonse aro evidently bent on getting twelve men who will no more be * peera® of Sullivan than a Hot- tentot would be the eqnal of Fred Douglass. EXAMINING A JUROR, The first two called'were G, B. Orton, of No. 856 Warren avenue, and M. J. Whipple, who Iives at the Commerelal Hotcl. Both arc sales- men, and fntelligent men. They were exam- ined by Mr, O'Drien, the former first, as fol- lows: Q.—Have you read about thiscasel A.—Yes, sir, Q.—In what papers? A.—Tnr TRIBUNE and Times, Q.—From what you read, have you formed and expreseed an opinlon a8 to the gullt or in- novents of the accused? A.—Yes, sir. Q.~Is It a fixed opinlonl A.—No, sir, Q.—Would {t require evidenus to remove it A.—Yes, alr. By Mr, Reed: Q.—Ts your oplnlon flxed and settled? A.—It {5 not so flzed but what it could be altered by tho facts. Q.—Havo you any knowledge of the casc except what you obtalued from the newspupors? A.~None whatever. Q.—Then you have an opinion {f the state- ments in the newspapers are true, but you have uo opinion {f thoy are untrue? A.—Yecs, sir, Q.—Is that the oxact state of your mindi A.—Ycs, 8ir Q.—You have no prelludlce, or bins, or fll-will ugalnst the defendant! A.—Nono whatever. I WUHIPPLE'S STATUS. To Mr. Whlflplo: Q.—tlave lyou any knowl- erlge oxcopt what you read in the papers? A.— wfiu I read and heard talled, Q.~Have you had any conversation with any crson who professed to have been present at flm homivide—any wiiness who eaw the killing? A.—I have not. Q.—Ils your mind in this condltion: that if what you read and heard is truo you havesn opinion, otherwiee you have not!” A.—I have !I!Xplilllled my opinfon upon the subject quite reely. Q.L]l it shonld turn out that the statements that you read in the newapapers and what you hennfhx conversatlon with people were nntrue, you would have no opinfont A.—Well, if T wans convinced that Thad bheeu mmnkcn,i should certainly change my mind. ' Q—You do not quite understand me. Ia your opinfoen Dypothetical) If the statements Yyou have read and heard are true, you have an opinlon; if not, you havo nono! A.~Ves, sir. Q.—Would yoit ive this man o fair telal, ne- cording to the law und the evidence, and render an impartisl verdice! AT p‘rcsume T would, Q.~Don't you know? A.—Yes, I should, AMr. Reed submitted that the jurors werecom- petent, especially Mr. Orton, AT NN _ADAIN, Mr. O'Brien tackled Mr. Orton again, Q. —You say you have formed and expressed an opinfon? A.—Yes, sir. Q.—You still cntertain that opinion? A.— Yes, sir. i c?.—Aud it would require evldenco to remove it B, 4 Q.—DId you read an nccount of the proccedings at tlie Coroner's Inyuesti A,~I think I did—part of it. . ¢ Q.—Ars you In the hnbit of forming an opin- {on unlesg "you bellove the facts upon which fviabased? "Did you helloye the facts upon which your opinfon was besedi A.—Ycs, sir. 1 presumad they were true. TIIE SUPRESE COURT AGAIN. Mr, D'Dr‘lun submitfed that tho jurors were not competent. Mr, lh:rzl gald he had the oplnlon of the Su- preme Court in tho Barron cuse, and-— Mr. O'Brien (lnterruptlnz)—'flm question has been discussed ten tiues alrendy, The Court—There hng beon no eaae befors the Bupreme Court where the jurors testifled to the same facta ns these—whero thelr answers con- tuined the same ingredients and elements. Mr. Reed—The 8uprems Court say in that {Barron) case, *Upon the question” of com- peteney the jurors named como within the provislons of Bue. 14 of Chap, 78, title *Jurors, puge 033, Rovised Stututes of im, aud were competent,” ‘The Cuurt—Tho Juror testifies that he bLe- lceves the statements. That takes him vight out tlie statute. o’l\lt. Reed—The statuto says, “of which he has expressed no opinfon.” Mr, O'Bric wanted to {nquire of Mr, Reed {f it was true If he had the sole manaxement of the case, and wished to try & juan on the charge of murder by jurors who hiad declared in open court, under vath, that they bad formed and ex- pressed, and stlll ontertalned, an opinlon s to the guilt er fnnovenve of the accused. Mr, Roed—1I have sole chargo of the case, and I bellova tho statute was passed for the purposo of allowlng intelligent men to it on the fury, 1 would not take any mau on a jury who siore that his would not change his oplufon. The Court—iVhen a man has gat a fixed opin- fon and swesrs that ho could give the nccused an Iinpartfal trial ho means an kmpartial trial ace cording 1o his standpolnt, 1t is fmpossible for such 4 maon to give a person the same sort, of o trial that he wunld if he had no oplnion, TI{A STATUTE UPSET, Mr, Recd—The stutute saya such a man is competent. ’l‘l},u Uourt—Tha statute cannot make him competent, beeaugo a defendant is entitled by the Banltltutlun to an impartial jury. v, Reed—Tho Legislature hias power to pros vido what shall bo the qualiilcations of jurors. The Court—The leglalature cannot ‘do indi- rectly what they canuot do dlrac&lfi. My, O'Drien—Is this Court famillar with that statute? ‘The Conrt—Tt 1a, My, 0'Brien—I win, and so is Mr, Reod, ana T knotw who'hiad it passed, and what 1t was passed u’rfilo Couft—The statuto nust he construed In the lignt of the Constitution, which is para- mnum.'%u all statutes and declelons of courts, i1 Mr. O'Rrien—T subult that the oicn are not competint, ‘I'be Gourt—They are nof competent. | THE §PBOIAL VENLIE, Mr. OIBrien~I want to call nttentlon to one thing right here. IL was understood yesters doy that'the jurors fu the speclal panel were to be'drawn frun @ie body of the county, which means all the peoplo. In looking at the names, and sceing thuse who have come fnto cnurt,f nutleo tha they aro almost exclusively drawn from ongvlass 'of the community, [ sulinit i this van be tolerated. 1t Ls an open violatiou of the law and the futimatlon of the Court that the Juey should be drawn frowm the body of the no onv class. 1iind that nearly ought nto court is from one na- b eyond wy coutrol, Yoo cnges. Mr. 0'Bri owam Ito ure thein! They will be exbausted, Tha Court—You cannot exhnust thoss for cause. Mr. Reed~I aubmit that that is A RRPLECTION UPON TIIE OPPICERS, Mr. O'Brien—Itisareflection upon the officers, by all meana. Mr. Rowl—If the officer [Nelaon, special baillff] has had the courage and the honpsty, and kas fearlessly gone out Into the cotnmunity and summoned " men of falr charncter ns the statute requires, o {s entitied to the thanks of every innn who denlres to aco the laws upheld: in this Btate, and not to reproot und rebuke in open court, Tho Court—We know of no natfonalities tn Jurors. The atatutory qualiflcations ary, * those of falr character,” Mr, Reed—They must be well-informed, The atatute says * of fair character and welldn. forined," which means that the jurors must come from the men of respectabilitynnd charac- ter in the community. Mr, O'Brion—Ilow would you [Reed] like to hnve an Irish jury brought In here to try this case! You would'get up, and, in the sume spirit that you approve of this, woulil denounce [t, Mr. Reed—I would not. I haven't sald a word, BOME O'IILIENISMS, Mr, O'Drien—You haven't sald: a word) 1 clinrgze that 1t Is packing the jury—thls taking of jurors from one natlunality,—one class, Your Honorknows It Tho Court—I don't know anything nbout it. Mr. O’Brien—Look at them. About every mun B —— Mr. Reed (Interrupting)—Have I sald anythin, about an Irlsh {‘ur_vr g i e The Court—No, Mr. O'Brien—An Irlsh jurs! We know what that means. When you sald to the oflcer, * Go to the wholesale hotises,” wo know what that meaus, The Court—This {s very much ont of order, Mr, O'Brien—Tho offlcer (Nelson] says you spoke to him ahout * wholesate houses. Mr, Reed—I did not. He eame fnto my ofMce and almnl{ sald that he had served twenty-four men, and he gave me the list, and I told him to go and serve the others. Mr, O'Brlen—Ile_says you followed him out of the Court and told lilin'to zo down-town and get a jury from among the wholesale ouses. Mr. Reed—I did not. It Is a falschoud, und he won't say so. A\iriQO‘l]r [en—{ can prove It on him if he de- o8 1L, Mr, Recd—Bring him in, 2 Tho Court—There s no question before the ourt, Proveed with the cxamination of the Jurors. The special bailiff was not hrou&ht in, 80 Lue questlon of veracity was unscttled, JONN VAN ARMAN. At this moment Jolin Van Arman anpronched the tablo besfde which the State’s Attoruey was scated, and sat down, Ilo at once tovk a part in the examination of the jurors, and it eane out that he had been engaged to ussist Mr. Reed i the prosecution, v The samo old gfi\,mublo occurred over the noxt iwo 1ur,vmen. ¢y had formed oplufons from read %thu nowapapers, but sald “they would diseard everything cteept what appeared on the trial,—~that what thoy had read would have nd influence with them. Mr. O'Bricu read from the statute regarding clinllenges of Jurors, us follows: Prorided, That it shall not ben canse of chal- lenga thata juror hias read fn the newepapers un account of Lo commimion of the crima with wihilch tho prisoner {8 chargad, If such juror shall state, on oath, that he Lelisves he can render an fmpare tial verdiet, according to the law and the avidence; and provided, further, that, In the trial of any criminal canse, tho fact that n yperson called ns “a juror haa formed an opinlon or impreasion based upon rumar or upon newspa- per statements '(about the truth of which he hus cxpressed no opinion), shall not disqualify hin to sorve asn e,uror in snch caze, {f hoshnll upon oath atote that he delleves he can falrly and impartially render a verdict therein, In accordunce with the Inwand the evidonce, and the Courtshall be satisticd of the truth of such statement. Mr. O'Bricn~This fs A VILLAINOUS BTATUTE, p 1t should havo been called an act to pack o fury: Yet there i8 o clauso which enables the Court to construe it reasonably and fafrly, It isa phys- {end Impossibility, aud nleEul impossibility, and a physlological lm{msalh!ll y for_these jurars to give the defendant a fair trial, Both swear that thoy have fortned opinions 1s to his gullt or fn- nocence, that they entertatn tho opinions now, and would requirs the defendant to give counter testimony to remove those opinions, nm,ldycn 84 they conld give him a falr and fmpartial triaf, Tu vindlcate the majeaty, dignity, and justice ot the law, we should not allow men to be mur- dered In a court of Jaw. Mr. Van Arman said If what counsel contend- ed was truc—that if it was true thatas man, onee having an opinfow, could not change nl—- the statuto was uscless. All reusoning, intelll- gont men would bo dlucfimmed, and none but the fgnorant and besutted, the prejudiced, none but men capable of being reachied and _inglu- enced by improper motlves, wauld bo qualified, The Court—There is a good deal of difliculty o reduclg the statements ot these jurors within any compnss that ndmits of placingthemn In o proper propusition to apply a rule to} they bave varled o In thelrstatementa, Ar, Van Avman—A varfanes {o termns rather than fu real sense, . THE COURT'S OPINION, The Court—XNaw, It is true, as a matter of ex- perience, that thero are men who have prepos- 6casions, or may get an fmpressfon of a thing, rlght or wrong, and may be capablo of disre- ;:nnlmf that' (mln'cuhm When they give the subject o more full and thoruugh exmniuation especially when it 1s subjected to thote teats of truth to which ell facts are subjected ln s court of justice, or ought to be. Thereis o difference fn men In this respect, 'y knows it. Even many an intellizent man gets an opijon Into his head and ndheres to i, und wll never glve lo up.” There are others who are willing to do it. The same thing wil he dis- covered In Judires, us well us [n {nruru; but the Judge owurlnu a different position, beenuse he 18 deallng with u selence, or what Is supposed to be o scfency, althoughi it is Tosing its oxact limnits yery much, And any one who ls educated in the law knowa that there is a difference of aplnion among those who are very competent to {nves- tigateand form oplufons, and consequently it s nutural that Inwyers hold their opinfona in ubeyauce, very much subject to eircunstances, L think & Juror occuples a different position, be- cause bo is dealing only with fucts; and all the Court has to say In this case Is, that the acenacd, 28 in any other case, no matter who he s or where he comes from, bus sceured to him an fmpartial jury, That he has a constitutional right to {nsist upon, and thut he must have so fur 0 tho meaus_{n our havds may go Lo sc- cure it to him. Now, [ theso men huve come into this Court with fixed oplnions upon the merita of this case, and, as they both stated in thelr orlginal examination, ft would requlre testimony from the defendant to overcome that opinion, then they do notstart with that sort of feellug o juror ought to have, urlsing from the legal presumption that & man s innocent until he I8 provon gullty—thoy presume him gullty and require him 1o overcome that pre- sumptlon, And such persons ars not lmpartial lurars, and cannot considered jinpartie? Jurors. Now I understand both these med to suy Lhat they read the procecdings beiore the Coroner, and that they belfeved ""“"i and from that bellef they formeid an uthlflu- Lelleve it 1a the theory of the vommon luw, that the true conception of the copraen law {8 that no man who elts fu the jury box to declde the questions na case oholl Lave any prepossessions awalust the party on trlul. In criminal cases he fsa Judge of the law and the fucts, And if these men have that prepossesslon, I they lold opinlons'st this tinio—I huve st out on the ruly and I wn golug to udhere to ft, that thoy are nut hupartial. But I have difticulty in determining from thelr statoments wheiber they are or not. DISTINGTION, Mr. Van Armau—~There {s this distinction in the common law, and it 18 a very inpartant one wwl {8 applicable in this case, It'is this, Where a juror is atfected by any relations to the accused or to Lhe case, thut ought to bu fatal, Theso ars permunent aid cannot be removed, ‘Thess jurors, however, so far as any cyideuce here ls toucerned, ure wholly Indiiteront, They do not_uppenr to know thedeiemtant o the deceased ; and they certalnly appear to be the right kind of men for jurors, It is merely & matter of ovlnlon with'them, How can wo de- termmo whether a mun has preconcelved ,;u:(ulmu excopt we take his own statemcent for t The Court—The principal effoct of this stat. ute will bee~you can perceive It by tho declstons ol the Buprems Court, becauso thiey recognize it (the constitutionatlty of it has nover been dis- cussed fn that Court 1 understand)—tho result of the application of thls statute would bo on- tirely lo uccordunce with the Lllosyucracies of the Judees who administered It. Mr. Vun Arnan—Certaluly. ‘The Court—{ do not believs myzelf that an, man who- goes iuto the jury-bux with a fixe opinion as to the guilt or lnuocence of the pris- oner can be trusted whien bo says that he will Rive bl an Impartial trial.

Let then stand sside, UNSATISPACTORY. The next man, one Andrews, had an " {inpres- slon," but not an * opinion.” Mr. O'Brien challenged Wim for cause, but the Conrt. overruled the objectlion. [Blzna of nstonislunent.] The Juror was challenged per- cnwtorlly. nothir, 8 German, was asked It he belleved o man had the moral ‘and Jegal right to shoot a [wmnn In order to vrotect his wite from hodily harnt 1lis anawer was: T don't know any- thing about such matters, as I never iwas mar- ried, [Lnught:r.'! e, hnwewr.h:ul Rn Opin- fon, and was excluded under the ruling. Abont, twenty more jurors were called up and rejected on the sama ound, the prosccution a{. attempting any further to influence the urt. All of them were decent-looking, {ntel- liment men, and scemed capable of acting as Jurors understandingly. DIFFERENT MATERIAL WANTED, Mr. O'rien—Iit wlll be_a long time be- fore we get o -jury unless different materdal {s brought {n, I stateto the Court only what is ubvious to every one, Mr, Van Arman—I don't know what connsel lmve‘l-o do with t. It fa for the ofticers of the court, Mr, O'Bricn submltted whether the hailift ought not to be informed that he was not re- quired by law to furnish alt the jurors from two clusace, ~Evory Amnerican brought in was from the wholesale houses—the class, a8 hie eald yes- terday, which was alwaya relfed upon to conviet aman, They were nearlyall of one natlunality, There were uther men in the city, Mr, Reed—Thero were Gcrmans and Nor- weulans, a8 well as Americans, Mr..O'Brien did not oblect to Amerfeans hut toone clasa~clerks, There were others who were competent. The officer (epeclal balliif) had evidently been tampered with, Mr. Van Arman-I heard you say that hefore, and I heard it denled by the public prosecutor. Mr. O'Brien—tUenticmen, if this s fair play, g0 On. Mr, Van Arman~You had better try your case before o jury, fostead of before this sudl- enee. The lpllxllcflnfi ended for a time, and more Jurors were called and objecteil to, Mr. Reed rejected the “one who was necepted by the defense Monday, but wus satisfied with three othiers turned aver to him by the defense. Boat1l_o'cock, four jurors, including the ono aceepted Monday, had been securcd. Thev were aworn and placed (v custody of o Sheriff, who waa fnstructed not tolet them commuuleate with any one or to separate. The Court remarked that tho trial would take lfml\t deal of time, and require an expenditure of a great deal of money, and he did not want tohave n tefal that would bo fmpeachable; It must be wholly fair, A recoss was then taken until 2 o’clock. AFTERNOON BTSSION. PI3ILING FOR JURONS. Upon reassembling the tedlous work was re- sumed, Three respectable, well-dressed men took thelr acata in the jury-box to be examined. They were not satisfactory to Mr. O'Brien. He wanted to know whether the bailift was going to send in any more—how wany he bhad sum- monedi s Mr. Van Arman couldn't sce tho object of that. Mr. 0'Brien wanted to know the object of his {nter.crence. Mr. Van Arman—My object fs this: You bave repeatedly taken occaslon to make specches— 5 Mr. 0'Brien—Have you any objestion to that? Mr. Van Arman—Sit down, Mr. O'Brieu—That fs a matter of cholee. You “have no right to Iuterrupt me. Mr. Van Arman—Ob, yes I have. The thre, with others, were refected, but finally two inore were neeeptable to the defense but not to the prosceutfon. No more were present, although the hundred ordered had not been summoncd, Mr. O'Brien asked that a new bafliif be ap- pointed. Mr, Reed—Mr. Nelson {s at work now. The Court—io dosn’t roturn jurors very promptiy. e AT IT AGAIN. Mr. 0'Brien—I am informed that he summon- ed forty-one jurors yesterdny. Only five have appeared. Something must have lizppencd to them, Al we have examined to-day, with two exceptions, are from wholesale houses, and were suminoned to-dny, Those summoned yesterduy Live not made thelr appearance, Mr, Van Arman—What fs theobjection topeo- ple from wholesale houses? 3 Mr., O’Brieu—Thero is something wrong about it. ‘Tho others aro gone.

I had no con- veraution whatever with the LaillfT; but, when tho venire wus given him at the Clerk's desk, he sold that he didn't believe that he would have time to get 100 men by the morning.

The dificulty of getting a ]nr%was not slight, and it certaluly must be an object with nll persons who desired a falr trial to have an honest, upright, and intelligent jury. The Court—1 feel aasured that” Mr, Nelson hias not futended te do anything wrong. Mr, Van Arman—If he has tricd to do the hest he could Lie is entitled to some lttlo con- aldcration. If L turns out he lLus not been sufliciently industrious another man can be put in Jda place, Mr. Swett did not object to the class sum- moned on the ground of d(uhuncn[w;. or that they desired to do anything wrongr; but thelr OPINIONS WERE LIKKLY Tu NE ALL IN ONE PAR« TICULAR OROUY, If the jurors were selecter] from the body of the ‘muplc, there would be 2 diveraity of sentiment. t was singular that a great many had made up their minds. Mr. Reed didn't think it singutar, All the papera published accounts of the murder, and [t was not surprising that thore who read the statements hud formed some opinlon, It would be stranga {f they had not. Mr. Swett satd hie woul: be perfectly fatr and ressunable. The mnewspapers started off with such utterances as would induce a person to form an optmion. The defeuss did not expect to present that case. Mr. Van Arman remarked if a ciass who dldn't read newspapers were brought fa they would be & very poor class, and it would drive "both sldes Into un unfortunate position, The Court did wuot Lelleve that Mr. Nelson had any desire to do otherwlse than cxactly rizht. “He was required to get 100 men b&' hiini- sclf, and befng under that” necessity had gane where e could get them most convenlently, with the statutory qualificatfons, Mr, O'Brien—That Is the best reason fn the world why we should have another balliff or two. T ean go out and In an hour bring [n thir. ty men better able to®try this case than those he Lias sent i, Mr. Reed—Yes, Youcould go outand geta lundred ; TUIEVE3, AND LUNCI-PICNDS, AND GUTTER- BNIPES, [Ecnpnllam} Mr. O'Brien—Your language {s elegant | Mr, Reed—And foreible, too, Mr. O'Brien—Do thoy predominate In the mmmuul\{l Mr. Recd—In some places they do.

Ar, O'Brien—I sce one now, [Smiles,] At this juncture ¥ ANOTHER JURYSIAN (E. B. Mansfleld) came Ju, and he was fmmedi- ately put into the box. He was employed ina “wholesale house,"~Gray Bros,, grocers,—had read nbout the case and formed un opinfon, but evidence would remove it, It came out during Tifs examination that one of hls employers hnad sald, ¢ about the tine ** he was sunimotied as o Juror, that the priconer wus guilty, or some- thing to that ef Mr. O'Brien asked that Mr, Gray be attached for contempt of court. ‘Thiz, however, was not pressed, but the juror was excused, the Court belnt understood to say that if he did not render a verdict In secordance wit )ll Lis employer’s views e would loae his slt- uatlon, Mr, O'Bricn insfsted that taking up Tom, Dick, and Harry ns they came in was improper, The defense was entitled to twelve jurorsat a thine, nud a Ust, since they desired to'know who and what they were, Mr. Reed sald that was not the practlee. After the lapse of fifteen infnutes ANOTIER JUROR STRATYED 1IN, e waa {n the *wholesale aml retall plano busl- 'I-IIL'!?’;] [smiles), and, having an opinion, was ex- cluded, My, O'Bricn ngain urged that the defense was entitled to o lst of th : Jurovs. Mr. Iteed sald n list was furnished only with tho orlzinal panel. Another “juror mnow appeared, but Mr, S‘:lneu exid he would not proceed without a 6t ‘The Court—The law docsn’t contemplate any sueh thing with talesinen, Mr. O'Bricn then questioned the juror, asking him amonz other things, if he belonged to any sevret eoclety which was Inimical to the Cathe olic Church “or Catholics, and if he believed in the pollcy or justice of punishing one man {n order to deter ‘other men from comnitting & crime. He too had an opinfon and was excused, ANOTHER BQUABDLE, Then the attorneys went to quarreling agaln over alr. Nelaon, Mr. O'Brien dd not think his conduct entltled bim to commendation, Mr. Reed thought otherwise. Tlo was doing his duty like a man, Mr, Swett did not attribute anything inten- tlonal to Lim, but his work certainly wrouaht a result which neither the Court nor anybody vlse wuuld believo to be proper, The Court sald if counsel would consent (the defense belng the only party who could sssipn crror) he would fssue & new venire for twenty- five, and put it Into another man's haud to serve, Mp, Swett—Yes, thres vonires, The Conrt—I eannot get the men to serve them.
