Mr. Gompers contended that the case in- volved the constitutional right of free specch and a free press and declared that the whole people were aroused to the se- riousness of the situation. Seores Court's Decision. Following a discussion of the contempt proceedings President Gompers In his an- nual report had this to say ‘I repeat and emphasize this fact, that the doctrine that the citizen must yield obedience to every order of the court, not- withstanding that order transcends in- herent, natural, human rights guaranteed by the constitution of our country, Is vicious &nd repugnant to liberty and human freedom, and that it is the duty, the im- perative duty, to protest. ““The history of the human race has been full of (yranny and the denial to the people of the rights of expressing freely by speech or in the press their opinions. After our people established a government they recalled that they had omitted to safe- guard this vital right in framing our con- stitution. Therefore, the ifrst amendment to thit ostriiment’ was ‘that guarantesing the right of freedom of speech and press. “That means something.

WASHINGTON, Nov. | by Justice Holmes, the supreme court of the United States today decided against the complainants in the case of the 13,00 | Choctaw and Chickasaw Indians who asked | for redress for being excluded from the citizenship rolls of those nations when they vere prepared by Secretary Hitchcock of the Interfor department on March 4, 1907, The sult was instituted by J. E. Fleming in the United States clrcult court for the eastern district of Oklahoma and was very sensatlonal in its character. It was alleged among other things, that the citizenship rolis has been prepared on fraudulent lists; that the citizenship court had been bribed: that §750,000 had been patd to the Oklahoma legal firm of Mansfield, McMurray & Cornish as the result of un- lawful conniving and that notwithstanding these cfiarges had been brought to the at- tention of Secretary Garfleld he had failed to Investigate them. It was also asserted that the secretary had withdrawn vast areas of land for reservation purposes and for other uses contrary to law. Claiming to be entitled to a share of the Choctaw and Chickasaw funds and lands under the terms of the treaty between the Indians and the United States which was entered into In 153, the petitioners asked for a decree compelling a general account- ing, for the award of their proportion of the property and for an Injunction pro- hibiting further proceedings looking to the allenation of it. The trial court de- sided against them, and its opinion was today affirmed. 8~In an opinion Committee to | Investigate Cook | National Geographic Society Names Three Scientists to Take Up Pole Controversy.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 8.—(Special)—It seems now well settled that President Taft | will defer filling the vacaney in the United States supreme court left by the death of Justice Peckham, until congress meets In December, when the senate will be in ses- | sion, so the nomination may be promptly | contirmed. While there may be no unseemly scramble for the high place, it is not unlikely that with the gothering of senators and repre- sentatives, there will be considerable wire- pulling to Influence the appointment. Indl- cations aro growing that a great effort will be made to land the credit of the ap- pointment to the New York bar, which s in the vacated Third circuit. 8o far, the only three lawyers Qiscussed for tho place are Senator Elihu Root, Judge Alton B. Parker, formerly of the New York court of appeals, and Alfred E. Coxe, now a circult judge. Of the three, Coxe appears to have the most actlve backing, one of his most energetic supporters being Vice President Sherman. The New York contingent will insist that Judge Horace H. Lurton, clreult judge in the Sixth ofr- cult, because of his comparatively ad- vanced age of 6 years, should not be ap- pointed. _But there are not a few persons who profess to be well informed, say that President Taft's admiration for the Ten- nessee jurist is too gre:t to permit a few years to deter him from choosing his favorite. Judge Lurton, to be as old as Justice Harlan, would have eleven years to serve, should he be promoted to the supreme bench, and Justice Harlan looks good for more years of service. He and Chief Jus- tice Fuller are the only members of the court over 70 years of age, each being past 76 The latest Intelligence from Justice Moody, who has been disabled by rheuma- tism since May 1, is encouraging, but his friends belleve it will be.many months be- fore he can resume his {abors on the bench. Numerous Appointments Ahead. In addition to finding a fit jurist for the supreme court, President Taft will have his hands full of appointménts for the Department of Justice in the different states, beginni~g with December. In that month the terms of fifteen United States district attorneys will expire along with the close of the terms of sixteen United States marshals. Next January the terms of eight dlstrict attorneys and seven mar- shals will expire It is confidently believed by those In- formed of President Taf¢s .oncern In this interest that he will use his best endeavor at every opportunity to strengthen the fed- eral judiclary, making such appointments will command the approbation not only but of the people of the community in- | terested Ot the twenty-nine circult judges on the bench, President Taft has appointed two. | Twelve were appointed by woosevelt, five by McKinley, five by Harrlson, 3 by Cleve- land and two by Arthur.

There was no effort at oratory or embellishment; but he went directly to the heart of his subject, and frankly and bluntly told his hearers thay me was in St. Louls for the sole purpose of arousing their interest in the great work upon which the monetary commission Is engaged.

The chine was lifted above the water today, but no bodies were in it and the police are inclined to believe that only twu persons plunged at ma- the brink of the open draw. It was at first thought that the auto- mobile belonged to James E.
