Worthington, that they wouid not rest con- tent with the opinion of the Court of Ap- and peals, and would take the cases to the United States Supreme Court. At Mr. Worthington’s request, the mandate of the Court of Appeais was, therefore, ithheld in order to permit him to apply to the Su- preme Court for the allowance of an ap- peal. Since then, however, ihe defendants have decided to contest no further, and their counsel has notiticd Mr. S. T. Thomas, the attorney for the District, to that efiect. When the Court of Appeals reassembles rext Tuesday, Mr. Thomas will explain to the court that the cases will not be fur- ther prosecuted, and will, therefore, ask that the mandate of the court be at’ once sent down ta the Police Court. ‘That will undoubtedly be immediately doae, when the defendants will be required te come into court and pay their fines.

Dawes, the new controller of the curren is one of the new men who obtained a national reputation as a result of the great fight last summer for delegate to the St. Louis convention favorable to President McKinley. Although Mr. Dawes was well known_in many parts of Llinois as a rising young republican, it was not until the result of the fight he conducted for McKinley became known that every A Younge citizen of the state desired his acquaint- ance. It is history now how Mr. Dawes won Illinois for McKinley over the strong- est men in the state. . Mr. Dawes is thirty-two years old. His familiarity with financial matters and his executive ability promise to make his term of office a notable one in the history of the Treasury Department and in financial cir- cles throughout the country. Mr. Dawes is a younger man than Mr. Eckels, whom he succeeded. His manners are pleasant and attractive, and he is easily approached. Mr. Dawes is one of the men whose influ-' ence at the White House is strong. He is unassuming in the efforts he makes for friends, but when the results are counted it is found that Mr. Dawes stands as high as any man in influence with the powers that be. FINANCIAL.
