Bishop Berry Li New Wing of the Methodist Hospital, and Banquet Follows, . (From a Statf Correspondent.) DES MOINES, May 28.—(Special.)—An in- teresting question that will discussed at the next meeting State Bar association by the of Towa is how to abolish the “contingent fee" evil. It is complained trom many quarters that the professton is being brought into disrepute by a class of men who are called “ambulance chasers.” means the /man who, when he hears of an acéident, establishes communication with the injureq person and offers to take his of¥® against the corporation, it one be responsible, on a contingent fee, or a mipulatéd percentage of whatever the judg- ment rhay be. It has been spggested that a law might be'énacted forbiddihe contingent fees. But such a dtatute could easily be evaded by the lawyer taking a noté for a certain sum from his client ana then filing an attorney's Jem on the judgment. One imethod’ that is being discrssed with some favor By the legal fraternity is to create w°law giving the juage of the court In pereonal Injury cases the power to fix the tee for the attorney for the plaintiff. In this way, it s urged, the real injured party would be assured of a reasonable compensation out of the judgment and the practice of extorting from clients large and cutrageous contingent fees would be at an end Another practice that ls objectionable to courts and taxpayers miay be considered That is the practice of some second rate lawyers to lobby jails and get requests for appointments in cases where the defend- ant has no means to hire a lawyer. The state pays these attorneys. 'Often these lawyers, who can secure no other clientele, will appeal unmeritorious cakes to the su- preme court and they draw pay from the state for perfecting appeals in these cases, which are quite universally affirmed. It is sought to give the court some power to direct wherein cases of this nature may be appealed. Board Completes Inapection. The State Board of Control is just com pleting its tour of inspection of the state institutions. The board will meet here soon and decide upon any changes to be made at the Institutions and discuss any new features to be taken up. At that meeting will probably be definitely settied the question of removal of Superintendent Fitagerald of the Mitchelville Girls' Indus- trial school, against whom charges of mis- conduct were recently made. Evidence against him was taken and he was given opportunity by the board to refute this. His reply it is understood and ewidence is with the board and final action will soon be taken.
