An Apology and Retraction Required. UNTIL THEY ARE FORTHCOMING ME. MAN- NING WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO PRACTISE BEFORE THE ALABAMA CLAIMS COURT. Mr. J. F. Manning, the attorney whose disbar- ment by theCourt of Alabama claims was the indirect cause of the recent official objections to the “necessary incidental expenses” of the court, has filed a motion through his counsel, Col. R. J. Christie, asking for reinstatement, which was yesterday passed upon by the court in written opinion delivered by Presiding Judge Harlan, and concurred in by the other two judges, 'The motion was denied, ‘first, because It did not contain any apology for the language and conduct which caused the disbar- ment, and, secondly, beeause since the original offense, the court finds that Mr. Manning has issued two printed statements, one a circular addressed to bis clients and the other a letter in & Massachusetts paper, both over his own sig- nature, in which he'uses language grossly abusive of the courtand in contempt of its authority. No court, it is said, could with dig- nity, or self-respect permit any person to prac. tise before it who had deliberately used such language with respect to Its members or its de- erees or orders. “And this court will not grant any motion to restore said Manning except upon an unequivocal denial uhder oath that he was the author of these papers, or upon the fullest apoloxy and retraction, coupled with an assurance that, ifreinstated, ‘he will conduct himself in futureing manner becoming an attorney of the court.” ee Mx.
