Pursuant to a call issuéq by President Henry E. Davis of the District Bar Asso- ciation, many members of the local bar met in the old Circuit, Court shortly after 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon to pay trib- ute to the memory of the late Judge Thomas F. Miller of the Police Court. Mr. Davis, explaining that the meeting was not of members of the bar association, but of the District bar, invited nomina- tions for presiding officer, and Judge Ivory G. Kimball was unanimously chosen, Mr. W. Meyer Lewin being selected as sec- retary. Upon the motion of Mr. Davis a commit- tee of nine was appointed to prepare a paper expressive of the sentiments of the meeting, the following being named: Henry E. Davis, C. Maurice Smith, S. T. Thomas, Waiter Davidge, A. S. Worthing- ton, John Hi. Clark Yohn ¥ Tangston, Jere M. Wilson and John E. Padgett. Atier @ feW moines wucue the ccmmittee, through Mr. made its report. Davis, Eulogy by Mr. Davis. Mr. Davis sai “In moving the adop- tion of these resolutions, Mr. Chairman, I do what is not merely a du I do what is to me an act of great satisfaction. It is customary for us to look upon death as something fit to be mourned. When we lose mer like Judge Miller, and are called to speak of them, that which we have to say of the death of them has a note of triumph. “We have had more distinguished men go out from among us—men with endowments superior in some respects to those which he possessed, hut, take him for all in all, ne was a man whose like we shall not look upon in a long, long while. “To my mind the death of Judge Miller removes from us a man who was an ex- ample. Those of us who recollect the man as he was twenty years ago, and then re- call how he went yesterday to his last rest- ing place, buried beneath the evidences of esteem and honor in waich he was held, can but contrast the two men and pay un- stinted praise to that in the man which made yesterday a possibility, and makes it just and true for us to speak these words of him today. “Mr. Chairman, the young man, when he starts out on his career, is adjured to bear in mind the motto, ‘Excelsior.’ That is an easy motto to heed. He sees the road be- fore him and the height to which it leads. lt is not a case of slipping back and re- covering; it is a case of going on. But the true man, the man who makes himself the true man, is he who did what Judge Miller did. Such a man has to take for himself the motto ‘Retrorsum.’ It was out of the very pit of Avernus that he had to bring himself, and almost daily, though it was that his work seemed like that of Sisyphus, the rolling of the stone to the top of the hill only to have it roll down again, in the providence of God he landed it on the other side, and stood himself upon the crown of the hill, victorious, in the light of the sun and before the eyes of us all. “Mr, Chairman, it would be an imposition upon your time and that of all who hear me if I should dwell longer upon the thought that I have entleavored to give ex- Pression to. I say that no juster wor: were ever written of,a man than I here offer as the expression of this meeting. I say no man ever merited the praise of his fellows more than did our. dear brother, who has gone to his, just rewar and I know I echo the sentiment of one of you when I say of him that his life was more than a mere example—it was an in- spiration.” The Commitice’s Report. The report was as follows: “The members of the bar of the District of Columbia having met in commemoration of their deceased brother "Thomas F. Mil- ler, judge of the Police Court of the Dis- trict of Columbia, who died Tuesday, No- vember 2, A. D. 1897, do resolve as fol- lows: “By Judge Miller's death we have been deprived of a fellow-member whose natural legal talents, developed by wide experience and appreciative study, réndered sure in their use by a singularly clear and ready memory, and coupled with an almost un- erring sense of justice, made him pre-emi- nent both as a practitioner and as judge in the attainments of our profession and their devotion to the interests of his clients and of the community. “Endowed by nature with a rare com- bination of acumen and strong common sense; gifted with an instinct which made a keenly discriminating judgment of human nature one of his most striking character- isties; clear and correct in his principles and unswervingly loyal to them; in the discharge of his duties justly severe and wisely merciful; it is not the extravagance of eulogy to say that no man ever more completely met the requirements of his po- sition or gave to the public better service, and that the loss to this community by his death cannot be otherwise truthfully described than as irreparable. “And, exhibiting in his personal life and character conspicuous loftiness, consist- ency and heroism in purpose and conduct, he lifted himself over seemingly insur- mountable difficulties to the greatest heights of worth and esteem, and earned for his children that priceless heritage, a pure and enviable name. “As his fellow-lawyers and fellow-citizens alike, we fondly cherish his memory and gratefully testify our esteem and affection for him, and we will cause this expression of our estimation of him to be furnished his family and presented to the courts of this District for preservation among their records as a deserved recognition of a well- spent, useful and exemplary life.” Mr. Wolf's Remarks. Mr. Simon Wolf seconded the motion to adopt the report, and in doing so feelingly alluded to the qualities of Judge Miller as a man rather than of nis legal abilities, saying of him that a gentler or more hu- mane man or judge never lived. In declaring the motion unanimously adopted Judge Kimbah took occasion to say that he looked upon Judge Miller not only as a great lawyer and a merciful, just judge, but also as a brother well beloved. Among those present were Judge A. C. Bradley, Judge I. G. Kimball, District At- torney Henry E. Davis, Deputy Marshal Wm. B. Robison, S. T. Thomas, uttorney for the District; Auditor James G.

McKnew, about three months ago, bought a cow. It was a beautiful black and white cow, of the:Holstein breed, and the milk-giving variety. He kept the cow in a stable at the,rear of his house, on Q street between 13 and 14th, and had new cream for breakfast. every morning. Thursday night some ’miscrtant or miscre- ants climbed the adjofning fence,abstracted the cow from the stabje ang departed with her. In order to get the animal out the thieves unscrewed thé back gate from its hinges. Mr. McKnew'says his cow was a smart cow, bet not ,equalto unscrewing hinges from a ate.anift hat ‘therefore there must have been a thief or thieves, whom he has requested the police department.to find for him. Incidentally he wants his cow back also. ————— The 100-Mile Rond Race. Capt.

THE WEEK. The democrats of New York elected a mayor of Greater New York and a chief justice of the court of appeals for the state. The state legislature left the repub- licans in ecntrol. In Ohio the republicans elected Bushnell governor by about 28,000 plurality. The republicans probably se- cured a majority of five on joint ballot in the legislature. Strong opposition devel- oped against Senator Hanna in the ranks of his own party. Kentucky went demo- cratic for one state officer and a democratic mayor was elected in Louisville. A num- ber of fatal affrays in the state on election day grew out of political differences. Mary- land elected enough republicans for the legislators to insure the defeat of Senator Gorman. Baltimore elected a republican mayor. Massachusetts, Iowa and Pennsyl- vania remained in the republican ranks, though with decreased pluralities. Colo- redo elected a fusion judge. South Dakota elected five republican district judges out of eight. Virginia went democratic by an increased majority, compared with last year. New Jersey elected a republican legislature. George B. Cox, conspicuous for years as the republican boss in Cincinati, announced his retirement from __ politics. Ex-Judge Walling, a prominent democrat of Monmouth county, N. J., voted at Key- port, in that county, and soon afterward shot himself dead, as the result, it was be- lieved, of intense anxiety over the election. A preliminary move was made toward prosecuting the Retail Coal Dealers’ Asso- ciation of San Francisco under the pro- visions of the anti-trust law. The Port- land (Ore.) chamber of commerce decided to send a relief expedition to the Yukon miners.

Charles C. Simmons Arraigned on a Grave Charge. Charles C. Simmons, a middle-aged white man, was today held for the action of the grand jury and sent to jail in default of $2,000 bonds by Judge Kimball, after a preliminary hearing in the Police Court, on the charge of attempted arson. The ac- cusation ‘vas that the defendant tried to burn the Baltimore and Ohio Hotel, north- west ccrner of New Jersey avenue and C street. The story of the fire was told in cetail by witnesses. The proprietress of the ho- tel, Miss Katie Schludenburg, testified that Simmons had been employed by her, but was discharged Wednesday. He asked thet he be allowed to stay at the hotel for a few days, and had asked her to again em- ploy him. Being out of town at the time of the fire she knew nothing of the par- ticulars. Mary Martin, colored, employed as a chambermaid at the hotel, stated that shortly after 9 o'clock last evening she was on the third floor of the house. Detecting smoke down stairs, she descended to the second floor, where she met Simmons, who was coming through a short hallway that connects the hotel proper with a back building. The hallway was filled with smoke. In a room in the back building the witness found a bed on fire, a pillow blazing in three places. The lighted gas Jet had been pushed against the wall. A bed in an adjoining room was also on fire, the door of the room being close. Detective Hartigan, who investigated the occurrence, said: “I talked with Simmons, and he told me that he hadn't been upstairs since 2 o'clock in the afternoon. Later he said he was at the scene of the fire when it was dis- covered. This morning at the station he said he had no recollection of what oc- curred last evening, and if he had done anything wrong he was sorry for it.” George Dutrow, a bookkeeper at the hotel, substantiated the testimony of Mary Martin and the other witnesses, and with- out hearing from the defendant Judge Kimball took the action stated. The discovery of the fire resulted in the calling out of the Sire department. The flames, however, had een extinguisaed by Policenren Horne and Gordon before the arrival of the engines. — Walther Society Officers.
