FOUR DISTINGUISHED COUNSEL. CCORDING to the exclusive news Evening World, in yesterday’s Charles W. Morse’s attempt to purchase a divorce was engi- neered by four distinguished lawyers. | One of the four is a former District-Attorney, Another is a former Assistant District- Attorney. The third is a dis- tinguished counsellor, The fourth was most prominent in up-State Democratic politics and is now adding to his fortune at the New York bar. None of these men appeared openly as Morse’s at- torney. All they did was to take his money and prostitute justice with it. Morse was married to one woman and wanted to shift wives.! The second woman, through religious scruples, would not marry a! divorced man. The way left for Morse to get rid of wife No. 1 was} to have the marriage contract annulled. | Wife No. 1 had been married before and was legally divorced! from her first husband. Abe Hummel hunted up this first husband, | got false affidavits from him and proceeded to have the decree of | divorce cancelled, thereby annulling Morse’s marriage. | The attorney for the wife, to vindicate himself, unearthed evi-/| dence that the divorce was legal and cleared his professional and personal reputation. | Then Hummel was prosecuted criminally. His natural course} would have been to tell on Morse. It was not Hummel, but Morse, whom the real prosecutors were after. Not Hummel’s, but Morse’s downfall was sought. Morse had dared to attack the leaders of high finance, to back traction roads against the Traction Merger, to create steamboat opposition to the New Haven road’s monopoly. For this both he must be crushed and the lesson must be taught to imitators. Morse is now in the 'Tombs under fifteen years’ sentence. At the time of the Hummel proceeding Morse had plenty of money. He employed most distinguished counsel. Between them these men got some $2,000,000 from Morse. Part of it went to Hummel. Hummel is now living luxuriously in Paris on it. Part went into their own private bank accounts. | That is the way some distinguished lawyers become rich. | But the object of this recital is not to cast stones at Morse, Morse is down. Nor to say anything abont Abe Hummel. Hummel is an exile. What is to be done with the distinguished lawyers who per- petrated these iniquities? The former District-Attorney? The Republican leader? The up-State leader? The distinguished corporation lawyer? Democratic No great financial crime has been or is likely to be committed in this eity unless some distinguished lawyer devises it gui , counsels it aide and abets it.
