THE EVENING STAR., WASHINGTON, D. C. MONDAY, OCTOBER 1. 1928. "5 e TAFTSEESCOURT | | DOCKETS WELL UP Chief Justice Fmds Condi- tions Satisfactory Except in New York. * Py the Assoclated Press. The condition of busi eral courts through characterized yesterda; tice Taft as satisfac York City and B termed the delays “w able.” The Chief Justice's statement was e after a thorough survey, assisted ircuit judges from the nine circuits. alling in outside judges it had possible to relieve the congestion New York City and Brookiyn, but nent relict would be obtained. tice Taft said, until Congress had passed bills, now pending, authoriz- ing the appomtment of three additional district _judg>s- in New York City and two in Brooklyn. Conference Protracted. The conference over which Chicf Justice Taft presid in session here three and recom- mended the 2lso of an additional district .judg> for southern Florida and one additional eircuit judge in the second circuit at New York City and in the ninth on the Pa- cific Coast. The conference suggested it was desirable to have district judges sitting at Jacksonville, ‘Tampa and Miami, and this wouid b2 possible should a third be authorized. <ll-nigh” intoler- Reports before the conference showed ! that there had been an increase in the Federal courts during the year of 2,359 in the number of Government and of 981 in private civil suits, panding, and a decrease of 4921 in the number of criminal cases undisposed of at the close of the year. Heavy Business in Sixth District. The only circuit in which delay in the disposition of ceses was found was the sixth, which was ascribed as due to the heavy business there. The conference renewed its recom- mendation of last year that Congress authorize each circuit judge to appoint a law clerk at $3,000 a year, and urged that the postal regulations be changed 50 that Federal judges might send Jarger packages of court records and books from place to place than is now permitted. JAIL ROLL TOPPED BY DRY VIOLATORS 6,064 of Year's 11,875 Cell Ropu- lation Were Held in Rum Cases. . ‘The District Jail housed more liquor law violators than any other class of prisoners in the fiscal year ending June 30 last, according to the annual re- port of Maj. W. L. Peak, superintendent, made public today by George S. Wilson, director of public welfare. ‘The report shows that of the 11,875 {Jnlsoners that passed through the jail the 12-monfh period, 6,064 were charged with violations of the prohibi- tion ~law. Intoxication cases alone totaled 5,874. Other offenses were traffic violations, 1,030; larceny and robbery, 968; as- sault, 935, and vagrancy and disorderly conduct, 1,187, Total Number Is Less. The turnover at the jail, however, | ‘was 51 less year. than in the preceding fiscal The daily average population was 464 or three prisoners per day more | than in 1927. The transfer of prisoners, Maj. Peak | 7 pointed out, disclosed that the District institutions at Occoquan and Lorton, Va., received a larger share of the jail output than ever before. The numb: transferred to the workhouse was 4,941, or 1,537 more than the preceding yeat _while the reformatory took 120 more than it did in 1927. An important step toward the com- plete independence of the jail, Maj. Peak declared, has been achieved by the conversion of the west wing directly over the executive offices into an in- firmary equipped with an operating room, drug dispensary and dental office. Change Held Beneficial. “The jail community,” he said, * measurably helped by this agdition an disposes of the drawback heretofore existing by its enforced dependence upon Gallinger Memorial Hospital.” Maj. Peak recommended the early re- modeling of the north and south ends of the jail which, he said, is desirable | 3§ in the interest of efficiency. 25 NURSES’ ILLNESS PROBED BY FOWLER of Garfield Hospital OQutbreak Stomach Pains Saturday Be- lieved Due to Food Eaten. Health Officer William C. Fowler to day ordered an investigation to deter- mine the cause of the mysterious ill- ness Saturday of about 25 nurses and internes of Garfield Memorial Hospital, who were stricken Saturday afternoon with abdominal pains and dysentery. None of the victims was made seriously ill, however, according to reports re- ceived by the Health Department. The investigation will be made by | Dr. James G. Cumming, chisf of the contagious disease section of the Healtn Department, and Dr. J. E. Noble, its | chief bacteriologist. Dr. Fowler said an effort would be‘ made to collect samples of foodstuffs | eaten by the hospital employes on Sat- | urday for the purpose of making a | bacteriological examination, as Health Denartment officials are inclined to be- lieve that the food caused the wide- spread sickness. Food served the nurses and internes, Dr. Fowler pointed out, is not eaten by the hospital patients, none of whom has been stricken like the employes.
