The nominatiou” of Mr. Morris to a place on the bench of this court was expected, but the other two nominations caused considerable sur- prise among lawyers and others who have been. waiting with interest for the appointments and | believed they could name a half dozen or so | side appointments on the Court of Appenis | bit majority. men from whom the selections would be made. | Mr. Shepheard’s name has only recently been used in connection with the new court and | Judge Alvey had not been known asa candi- | date. There was great disappointment and in- | dignation among citizens and inwyers that the President had not appointed at least two Dis- | trict men to this court. CHIRY JUSTICE ALVRY. 4 Richard H. Alvey, who has been appointed | chief justice of the Court of Appeals, has for | many years been considered probably the leader | of the legal profession in Maryland. Since 1867 | he has been chief justice of the Maryland | court of appeals and presiding jadge of | the fourth circuit court, which mcindes the | counties of Allegheny, Washington and Garrett. | He is u man sixty-seven years of age and liked and respected by all who have come tm con- tact with him. His eminent legal ies and his personal nature render bim ® man of striking personali It is not thought that Judge Alvey sought the appoint- ment with which he has been honored. Sen- ator Gorman, however, bus quietly but per- sistently urged upon the President the fitness of Judge Alver for the appointment. HIS HIGH LEGAL REPUTATION. The reputation of Jndgo Alvey as a legal Inminary is highly respected in this city, and | the Supreme Court in particular is credited | with having a high respect for the new District judge. His opinions which have come up to the court here are described as masterly in every particular, and a gentleman this morning who is thoroughly informed on the affairs of the court related a remark made to him some years ago by Justice Harlan, who, without knowing or ever having met Judge Alvey, described his opmhions which hed reached the Supreme Court as the most able coming from any state. Senator Gorman said today, spenking of the appointment: “In Maryland we look on Judge Alvey as easily the leader of the legal profession of the state and ax a man who would take the highest rank in any state. His opinions and decisions bave long been known as model legal documents all over the country.” Judge Alvey's residence for thirty years has been Hagerstown, Md., where he possesses a fine estate. Senator Gibson said today in regard to Judge Alvey's appointment: “It is the best that could be made. His abilities are little lees than remarkable, The appeliate court of Maryland has long been noticed for its fine legal attainment and the excellence of its decisions, conrt Judge Alvey bas stood even among its exceliencies head and shoulders above every one.

Those who could be seen at the Capitol today knew comparatively little about the two out- Senatorial interest rather flagged when it was found that neither Sezator Faulkner or ex-Con- | gres*man Hemphill were to be included in the bench. Senator Gibson iate yesterday evening made a final appeal to the President for Senator Faulkmer’s appomtment. He was informed, however, by the President that, ow- ing to the doubt of the eligibility of the West Virginia Senator, the appointment would be impossible. It is understood that the Pre: dent has held that the spirit of the Conttitution barred the appointment of both Senator Feulk- ner and ex-Congressman: Hemphill, the fact that both were members of the Congress which passed the bil creating the new court. Senator Faulkner has nothing to say this morning in regard to the appointment. Mr. Hemphill, who was found chatting toa fricnd in one of the corridors of | the Capitol, also said that he preferred to say nothing. MR. MORRIS CONGRATULATED, A Stax reporter was the first one to offer his congratulations to Mr. Martin F. Morris upon his nomination. He had just received word tol that his name was among the nominations for the Court of Appeals, but io ‘Tur Stax reporter Mr. Morris said that he did not know whether or not bo was properly a sub- ject for congratulations. “Lam totally in the dark regarding the first steps to be taken by the court,” said Mr. Morris, “for 1 do not know when the judgos will meet. Although there has been consider- able talk in the papers connecting my namo with the new court the nomination bes come to me as considerable of a surprise.” “Will you give up your connection with Mr. Hamilton in your present firm?” “If I decide to go on the bench I will neces- sarily have to sever my business relations with the firm,” replied Mr. Morris. “I have reached no conclusion as to whether or not I will accept the nomination and perhaps until the Senate acts I will not finally make up my mind. The Senate may refuse to confirm me. “My acquaintance with Judge Alvey is not very extended, but from what I personally know and what I have heard I consider bis selection asa wise and excellent one. I bave pever met Mr. Shepheard and know nothing of While Taz Star reporter sat talki with Mr. Morris a telephone mossage was delivered to him from Mr. A. A. Wilson forwarding the latter's congratulations. MR. R. ROSS PERRY. Mr. R. Ross Perry was especially pleased that 80 long as but one District person was nomi- nated that that one was Mr. Morris. “Mr. Morris, you know, wos my candidate for the chief justice of the new court, but as the District was not to have ‘that officer and was oniy to get one of the judges I am more than glad that the name of Mr. Morris was sent in. He is ly the best man that the D istrict could ve to represent them on the Court of Appeals. If President de- cided to go out of the District to select a chief justice I do not think that he could have made ‘a better appointment than that of Judge lv He is a man of the greatest judicial ability and one whose character can- not be impeached. He has served for » long time on the court of appeals of Maryland with distinction and merit end his fitness for that place has never been questioned. The old laws of the District were founded on those of Maryland, and thus Judge Alvey to a certain extent is already familiar with the local statutes, ‘Ido think that the District was entitled to at least two of the appointments, as half of the expenses are paid by ws, and there is no doubt some regret that Mr. Cleveland decided to name two Judges from other places, but I want to say that the bar of the District, aftera long and arduous struggle, has succeeded in procuring the es- tablishment of an excellent judicial system. ‘No matter what the personal wishes of indi. vidual members of the bar may have been with respect to the appointments just made, I think that it is now certainly incum- bent upon all of us to loyally support both the upper and the lower court and to unite in scton as will advance the administration justice and as will make the bar associat source of influence and tor plishment of logal reform.” COL.
