Such further abstract may be filed if the original abstract is incomplete or inaccurate in any substantial part." The proper practice, therefore, would have been for counsel for the State to file a further abstract making the necessary corrections or additions, showing accurately the points at issue raised by the briefs.

It is urged that error was committed on the trial of the case in permitting the State's attorney to ask certain questions of plaintiff in error Crane as to his having been under arrest previously. It had been brought out on the direct examination of this witness by his counsel that he had been previously arrested on another charge and discharged by the trial court. While the court should have sustained objections to the questions of the State's attorney as to the previous arrests, in view of the facts in this case we do not think any reversible error was committed.

While a witness for the State, Hunding, was on the stand and testifying in regard to what took place at the time of the transaction in question, plaintiff in error Jackson, who was sitting between counsel for plaintiffs in error, exclaimed, apparently loud enough to be heard by the court and counsel as well as by the jury and witness, "That man is lying, and he knows it!" It appears that Jackson had been previously sworn to testify but had not testified. and did not testify during the trial. At the close of the testimony for the defense the State's attorney trying the case stated publicly that in view of the statement of Jackson that the witness Hunding was telling a lie he would like to cross-examine him. Objection was made on the part of counsel for Jackson to such cross-examination, counsel stating that Jackson had not testified. Finally Jackson's statement was stricken out and an instruction given by the court that "the jury will disregard any statement made by the defendant Jackson." Objection was made to the action of the State's attorney in this regard as calling attention to the fact, contrary to the statute, that Jackson had not

testified. The State's attorney did not state that Jackson had not testified. The statement that he had not testified was made by his own counsel, and in view of the fact that he had publicly announced while the witness Hunding was on the stand that Hunding had testified falsely, we do not think that he is in any position to complain of the action of the State's attorney in requesting permission to crossexamine him in regard to his statement that the witness was lying. While Jackson himself had not testified except in making this public statement when not on the witness stand, the other plaintiffs in error had all testified, and we cannot see how those others were in any way injured by the State's attorney asking to cross-examine Jackson.

Objection is also raised by counsel for plaintiffs in error that the record shows that after the close of all the testimony by the defense two police officers employed by the city of Chicago were permitted to give their testimony in rebuttal when it should have been given as a part of the direct testimony of the State. At the close of the testimony for the State the State's attorney trying the case stated to the court that the police officers whom he desired to have testify in the case were before the grand jury and that he would ask permission to put them on when they returned, and with that reservation the State rested. No objection was made at that time to this reservation, and these two police officers afterwards testified to the arrest of Campbell, Cunningham and Jackson and the finding of a revolver on the person of Campbell; that Campbell said that it had been. given to him by Cunningham, and Cunningham admitted that it was his. The general rule is that the order in which testimony competent and relevant to the issues is to be admitted is largely in the discretion of the trial court, and that reviewing courts will not reverse as to such order of admission except in cases of manifest abuse. (Thompson on Trials,-2d ed.-sec. 344; 28 R. C. L. 586; Jones on Evidence, 2d ed.-sec. 814; People v. Shortall, 287 Ill.

150; Hirsch & Sons' Iron Co. v. Coleman, 227 id. 149.) We cannot say on this record that there was a manifest abuse by the trial court in admitting this evidence after the close of the testimony on behalf of the defense. It seems clear from the evidence that neither plaintiffs in error nor their counsel were in any way surprised or put at a disadvantage by this evidence coming in at the time it did.

It is further urged that error was committed by the trial court in permitting evidence to be offered as to a revolver being found in Campbell's possession and on his person when arrested two months after the alleged crime was committed. We think under the reasoning of this court in People v. Scott, 261 Ill. 165, and People v. Maciejewski, 294 id. 390, no error was committed in this regard.

It is also insisted that there is a variance between the indictment and the proof, in that the name of the corporation that owned the money was alleged in the indictment to be the "Hunding Dairy Co." and the proof showed that the name was “Hunding Dairy Company." It has been more than once said by this court that a variance between the name alleged in the indictment and that proven by the evidence is not regarded as material unless it shall be made to appear to the court that the jury were misled by it or that some substantial injury was done to the accused thereby, such as that by reason thereof he was unable to intelligently make his defense or was exposed to the danger of a second trial on the same charge. (1 Wharton on Crim. Evidence, sec. 288.) The alleged variance as stated by counsel for plaintiffs in error in their briefs here does not appear to have been raised in the trial court, and under the reasoning of this court in People v. Weisman, 296 Ill. 156, and People v. Melnick, 274 id. 616, plaintiffs in error can not avail themselves of any claim on this point of variance. It is also urged that the conviction is erroneous because the indictment charged that each of the plaintiffs in error was then and there armed with a dangerous weapon, to-wit,

a certain revolver, and the proof failed to show that either Campbell or Crane was armed with a revolver. We think the evidence clearly showed that all four of the plaintiffs in error visited the office of the Hunding Dairy Company with a common purpose, and that three of them, at least, were armed with revolvers at the time and used the same to coerce the employees of the dairy company into giving up the money, and therefore they are, at the least, accessories before the fact to the aggravated offense of robbery with a dangerous weapon and could rightly be indicted and convicted as principals. This has long been the settled law of this State. Lionetti v. People, 183 Ill. 253; People v. VanBever, 248 id. 136; People v. Snyder, 279 id. 435, and authorities there cited.

It is further strenuously argued that the evidence does not justify the conviction; that the lack of identification of certain of the plaintiffs in error, especially Campbell and Cunningham, in the light of the evidence as to their not being at the place at the time of the perpetration of the offense, was sufficient to show that the jury must have been moved by passion or prejudice in order to convict them of the crime in question. It is also insisted that Cunningham was only identified by the witness Kirbeck as having any connection with the robbery in question. We think counsel for plaintiffs in error are in error. One of the police officers testified that Campbell told him after his arrest that he went to the dairy to buy the milk "to see if the coast was clear," and that he did this for the persons who did the robbery. The jury had before them all the witnesses who testified, both as to identification and as to the alibis of plaintiffs in error. It was a question of credibility between the witnesses for the State and those for the defense, a question peculiarly within the province of the jury. The jury are not compelled to be controlled by the number of witnesses testifying as to the alibis or as to the identification of the accused. They evidently gave credence

to the testimony for the State in regard to identification and disbelieved the alibi testimony of the plaintiffs in error. In view of all the testimony in the record we cannot say that the verdict was not sustained by the evidence. People v. Deluce, 237 Ill. 541; People v. Stephens, 297 id. 91. We find no reversible error in the record. The judgment of the criminal court of Cook county will therefore be affirmed. Judgment affirmed.

THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, Defendant in Error, vs. ROBERT MCMULLEN, Plaintiff in Error.

Opinion filed December 22, 1921.

I. CRIMINAL LAW-trial judge should exercise care to avoid influencing jury. While considerable latitude must be allowed in asking questions to enable the trial judge to give a proper ruling, the judge should exercise great care to avoid giving expression to any thought that may be calculated to lead the jury to infer that his opinion is in favor of or against the defendant in a criminal case.

2. SAME when limitation of argument of defendant's counsel is unreasonable. A defendant in a criminal case has a right to have his counsel given a reasonable opportunity, in argument, to discuss before the jury both the facts and the law of the case, and where evidence on a trial for robbery with a deadly weapon is voluminous and the conviction rests largely upon the testimony of a witness who has been discredited in an important particular the defendant is entitled to have his counsel argue to the jury all the evidence and facts which discredit the witness, and a limitation of his argument to thirty-five minutes is unreasonable.

3. SAME-unreasonable limitation of argument is ground for a new trial. Any limitation of the constitutional right to a fair trial which deprives a defendant of a fair opportunity to have his counsel argue the law and the facts constitutes error requiring a new trial.

WRIT OF ERROR to the Criminal Court of Cook county; the Hon. JOSEPH B. DAVID, Judge, presiding.
