It was merely the expression of the opinlon of mony who dalty do business o *Change. Nor do the slgnaturcs comprehend all the members. There are not a few who utterly and emphatleally re- fuse to nitach their names, and who eiati that nelther the Boatd nor fts hembets lave tho right to impugn the motives or question the Jegal acumen of Judpe McAlllster or any other member of the Judiclary: They are Inclined to think the petition A bad taste, and utterly worthless 6o far as it proposes to cffect any re- forst. They a:dmt that they entertafh o phifos uvon the rulings of the Coirt fu the Sulllvan sytrial, but they aro strongly thclined to question “ the proprlety of even expressing those oplulons In the niahver sclected by other members, Titoss who bave nlteady signed concede that, 80 far aa sceuring the consummation prayed for Is concerned, the petitfon will unquestionably Ye fnoperative, butb thiy felt strongly oun the subject, and chose the method they did s the readlest to inforin the Judgt how Lhey looked upont hln, and to place him inx position to Xuow who cntortalited those views. Anditls nlso contended by them that the ohly persons who have refuseid to sign are those who have also refused to be bound by the rules of the Board. Asto the eshibition of taste, they do not think It an boportant dlement. As'citizens of Chleago, thelr rights are at stake, and they propose to acquaing Judge MeAlllster with their detertmnation not to put up with any attack upon those Hghts., They point out the fact that the Board of ‘Trade has for genrs stiuggled to fmprovo the jury system and to raise the juror tosoine standard of fatelligence, and they db not propose to keep thelr mofiths closed white a Tudge thraws away the fruit of their labors and gends them back whenee they started. THE IMPLIRD THREATS OF JUDGE M'ALLISTER o visit punishment upon the heads of the gen- tlemen who hase slgned the petition, or those who shall present it, have made an fasue. The #lzners are determined it shal) ba presented, and dozens of men are clamoring for the privilege of enrrying it to him. "They say they tuave not cxamined the question whother etich presen- tation ean bt construed {nto contempt of Conrt, nndt tiey are not snxwus on that pofut, When i time comes they will know, aud when they Kaow they will act. s As sooi us auch of the Doarl as desire to plen Bave uppesded thels tamer, the petition will be takewoutside and eiroulated.
