WOULD DELAY BUSINESS Chief Justice Issues Statement Telling Why Associates of Dead Jurist Will Not Accompany Remains to Leaven. worth — Rumored at Washington That Congress Will Retire Justice Moody on a Pension. ‘Washington, March 31.—The su- preme court of the United States will not only convene Monday but in all probability will remain in Session throughout the day, announcing de- oisions and hearing arguments in the Hertz inheritance tax case. At a later day memorial services will be held in honor of the late Justice Brewer. The members of the supreme court have decided not to go to Leavenworth and attend the funeral of their fellow member. Delay to the public business is the reason for this decision. In a statement given out regarding the plans of the court as to the funeral, Chief Justice Fuller said: “In view of the time to be consumed lnI going to and returning from Leav- enworth and the probable postpone- ment of the public business which would result the members of the court, after submitting the matter to Mrs, Brewer, have determined, with her approval, not to go to Leavenworth. The court will be present at the funer- al services at the residence and, as honorary pallbearers, accompany the remains to the Union station.” Congress May Pension Moody. At the Capitol there was a rumor that a bill would be introduced in congress to allow Justice Moody to re- tire on a pension. Friends of the jurist say that he ex- pects to resume his duties on the bench next October, however. They confirm the report that Justice Moody has suffered a nervous breakdown, complicated by a rheumatic attack. Justice Moody could not retire at this time on pay, except by special legislation, as he is not old enough and has not served the required ten years on the bench to entitle him to retire at full pay. A precedent exists for such legislation in the case of Justice Ward Hunt, who retired on a pension in 1882. Justice Moody was ajgpointed to the bench on Dec. 3, 1906. About a year ago he was compelled to leave Wash- ington because of illness. He is fifty- seven years of age. ARMY OFFICERS IN A PLOT Discovery Causes Great Sensation at Lisbon.
