GHOATE Noted Lawyer Accused of “Omis- sions and Wrongful Acts.” New York, July 5.—For the first time in the history of the Amerlcan Bar association of the United States charges have been filed against one-of its members and are to be laid before the approaching convention at Chatta- nooga in August. And the fact that the pioneer victim of this distinction is 'past President Joseph: H. Choate, formerly American ambassador to the court of St. James, has aroused intense interest through- out the legal fraternity of the country. The complaint charges “omissions and wrongful acts.” The charges were placed on record.! with Chairman Henry D. Estabrook of the general council of the association on May 17, 1910. James R. Watts of West New Brighton, S. I, admitted he had filed the charges and demanded a thorough investigation. One of the statements in the “brief of facts” submitted tells of an alleged attempt to bribe Watts to leave New York city and settle in the Far West. ‘Watts names a man, at that time con- nected with the law firm, he claims made the offer twice in one day. DR. HYDE IS SENTENCED Convicted Murderer Is Given Life Imprisonment. Kansas City, July 6.—Dr. B. C. Hyde, convicted of having poisoned Colonel Thomas H.

An appeal to the state supreme court was filed by Hyde’s attorney and until it is taken up by the higher court the prisoner will remain in the county Jail here. The Star Chamber.

INVOLYED IN TRUST CASES Many of Those Mentioned for. Posi- tions Participated as Attorneys or Judges in Matters Awaiting Decision by Highest Court—Taken for Grant- ed That Governor Hughes Will Be Named as Chief Justice. ‘Washington, July 6.—It is taken for granted in Washington that Governor Charles E. Hughes of New York will be named as chief justice of the Unit- ed States supreme court In succession to Melville W. Fuller, who died at Bar Harbor, Me. Based npon the good opinion that President Taft is known to entertain for him thereds talk that the place may go to Lloyd W. Bowers, formerly of Minnesota, solicitor gen- eral of the department: of justice. The general impression, however, i3 that the office will be tendered to Mr. Hughes. That there will be''two new faces on the bench this winter is practically assured. Under' the most favorable circum- stances there will be only eight jus- tices on the bench in October and this includes Associate Justice Moody, who is still on the invalid list. But should Mr. Moody, finding his improvement to be slower than he' and his friends hope it to be, conclude to avail him- self of the privilege of retiring with full pay there will be two.empty seats, Mr. Moody has five months from the date of the passage of the special act of congress, introduced for his benefit about three weeks ago, to decide on his course. To Confirm New Justices. The general expectation is that he will retire. With only seven justices it is regarded as doubtful whether the court will proceed to the consideration of the Standard ‘Oil company and American Tobacco company cases, es- pecially since the court, in ‘ordering a reargument, announced that it was to be before a full court. Therefore, un- less it becomes known that the court will defer reconsideration of these cases until December or January, by which time the senate can have con- firmed new appointments, discussion of the advisability of an extra session of the senate would-seem to be in or- der. At any rate, it appears safe to conclude that if there shall be no spe- clal session the court will postpone A" comet {. plerced here and there with sna'wy i -erystals of gypsum. The guides go be-{ the -anti-trust c: to.the time sug- gosted: “ i ros e s Assuming that Governor Hughes is to become chief justice the president will have a new associate justice to appoint in his stead. Theefirst man thought of in this connection by men who have evinced an interest in the filling of supreme court vacancies 1s Lloyd W. Bowers. Certain public men and others who are in the confidence of the president are strong in the belief that Mr. Bow- ers, sooner or later, will be appointed to the bench. ‘Many Declared Ineligible. Taking it for granted that the presi- dent intends to make a supreme jus- tice of Mr. Bowers the only disquall- fication. which may be urged against him at this time is that he argued the corporation tax case for the govern- ment when the constitutionality of the new excise was questioned by various corporations'a few months ago. It is on account of his connection with the anti-trust cases that Attor- ney General Wickersham assuredly cannot be considered for any imme- diate vacancy on the bench. Mr. Wickersham, with Frank B. Kellogg, special counsel for the government, submitted the arguments which were designed to convince the court that the Standard Oil company and the American Tobacco company had been violating the Sherman law. For reasons ‘equally potent, though not exactly analagous, the president doubtless will consider ineligible sev- eral of the judges of the Eighth cir- cuit who have long been aspirants for elevation to the supreme court. These men are Walter H. Sanborn of St. Paul, Willis Van Devanter of Cheyenne, Wyo., and Willlam C. Hook of Leavenworth, Kan.,, who, with El- mer B. Adams of St. Louis, the fourth of the eight circuit judges, decided the Standard Oil case in favor of the government before an appeal was taken to the supreme court.

Santiago, Chili, July 6.—Wilhelm Beckert, former chancellor of the Ger- man legation, was shot here for the murder of a Chilean messenger of the legation on Feb. 5, 1909. Beckert embezzled funds of the lega- tion and attempted to cover up his crime by making it appear that he had been burned to death. He murdered the messenger and left the body in the legation building, at the same time disappearing himself. He was cap- tured before he could leave the coun- try. An examination of the body dis- closed its identity. The German gov- ernment waived Beckert’s diplomatic privileges and left the case to the Chilean courts.
