It is not error, in a prosecution against several defendants for criminal conspiracy, to admit in evidence a confession made by one of such defendants not i,i the presence of others, to the admission of which only a general objection is made by such others, where the confession is such that no part thereof can be excluded and leave in intelligible form so much of it as is unquestionably admissible against the defendant making it.",

On a prosecution for criminal conspiracy, evidence held to support a verdict finding defendants guilty.\n2. Criminal law, \u00a7 570*\u2014when refusal of instruction is harmless error. On a prosecution for criminal conspiracy, refusal to give an instruction requested by defendants is not ground for reversing a judgment against them where the subject-matter of such instruction is sufficiently covered by other instructions.\n3. Criminal law, \u00a7 532*\u2014when admission of confession of an other defendant may not be complained of as reversible error. On a writ of error to reverse a judgment against defendants in a prosecution for criminal conspiracy, where the case was\u00bb tried according to their own theory that a confession by another defendant, made out of plaintiff in error\u2019s presence, was admissible against the defendant making it, but should be disregarded as to plaintiff in error under proper instructions, which were given, the objection made to the admission of the confession being general and not relating to any particular part thereof, plaintiff in error will not be heard to object that the admission of the confession was reversible error.\nError to the Criminal Court of Cook county; the Hon.
