C, Oct. 7. The su preme court of the United States will, convene next Monday at noon for one of the most important sessions in -.its history. During the coming eight months it will have to pass upon cases profoundly involving the industrial and business life of the nation, and this -fact adds importance to the pend ing changes in the personnel of the great court occasioned by the death of chief justice Fuller and -associate jus tice "Brewer and the retirement of as sociate justice Moody. Gov. Charles B. Hughes, of New York, has been 'con firmed in the place of justice Brewer, and there appears excellent reason to treatment sold everywhere mh for h expect that he will be named in place of the chief justice, although associate Justice Harlan, the senior surviving member of the court, has been much spcken of for promotion to the chief Justiceship. In any event. Including justice Hughes, there will be three new men on this bench during the com ing session. Taft Will Not Appoint. President Taft has said that he will make no recess appointment to the court; this means that the chief jus ticeship and the place of justice Moody r -vn -p.vt: m ;. im ::'! jhkh -a i vmm .

Styles are shown suitable for every age; there are suits of conservative cut for the older man and suits on clashing lines for the "young fellow." In addition to the "Schloss Bros." Clothes, we have suits of other good makes ranging in price from $15.00 to $20.00. THE also, The "Dr. Reed Cushi probably will remain vacant until the regular session of congress begins in December. It also means undoubtedly that the three great corporation cases upon which the expectancy of the business world is centered will not come up for reargument at least until after tne Christinas recess of the court. Of t these cases, two, the Standard OH case and the socalled tobacco trust case, were set for reargument on Novem ber 14. The series of corporation tax cases were merely restored to the cal endar for reargument. In ordinary circumstances this would throw them over for a year or more. The general expectation is that none of the three cases will be taken up until all the vacancies in the court have been filled, and that then the corporation tax cases will be advanced, and with the other two cases mentioned, will be set for dates relatively early in 1911. Much Work ATralts Court. Aside from these celebrated cases, a tremendous amount of work awaits the court at the beginning of its ses sion. Upwards of 40 cases many of large import, have been assigned for argument next Tuesday, or as soon thereafter as possible. Ordinarily, each justice delivers about 30 opinions during a year; hence if one member were to undertake to cover all of next Tuesday's docket, he would not be through with it until far into 1912. First Day of Court. Unbroken custom reserves the first day, Monday, theoretically at least, to paying the respects of the court to the president of the United States. Be fore the time of Cleveland, it is said, the court had practically never failed to adjourn immediately upoa conven ing on the second Monday iri October, to go in a body to the white house. Once or twice Cleveland was away from the city, and Roosevelt even more frequently. Nevertheless the call of the docket of cases to be argued has 6Q Natures diiorte are recomme of t in diges hem recomm o a source. maJnn 9 1Z9 La is The selection of the fall suit should be made now, and here.

This year, president Taft will be at Beverly; the fact will be announced by justice Harlan, presiding, and the court will adjourn. Largely on ac count of there not being a full bench last term, many important cases were set" for argument, out of their turn, for Tuesday. The continuing vacan cies may cause the further postpone ment of "several of them. The death of solicitor general Bowers may also result in the postponement of a num ber of government cases. Virginians in Lesral FIsrIit. The girst big case set for argument is the dispute between the state of West Virginia and the commonwealth of Virginia as to the amount of money the former owes the latter by reason of the formation of separate govern ments. Charles E. Littlefield. special master of the court, last spring re ported that the amount varied from about $3,000,000 to about $9,000,000. ac cording to the basis that might be ac cepted for a settlement. Some of the most prominent lawyers in the coun try will appear before the court to argue on exceptions to the report, which will be preparatory to final judgment in the case. Peonage Case Come Xrxt. Immediately following the Virginia case, the court will hear the famous peonage cases from Florida. Only the favorable action of the supreme court, it is said, can now save se-veral men from going to the federal penitentiary for alleged violations of the laws against compulsory service. W. S. Harlan, general manager of the Jack son Lumber company, with big mills near Lockhart, Ala., has been sentenced to serve IS months at hard labor In the federal penitentiary at Atlanta, Ga., and to pay a fine of $5000; Rob ert Gallagher, logging superintendent, .;. :M ns your Gift nding Cottolene for dyspeptic) ending lard and manner of marketing:. to lard or cooking butter for all frying arid shortening ?? on Shoe'9 to 15 months and a fine of $1000; C. C. Hilton and S. E. Huggins, employes, to 13 months and a fine of $1000, all for having conspired to commit the offense known as "peonage. The ac cused men are seeking to be released on writs of habeas corpus, the claim being that the sentence to hard labor was Illegal, that the trial court had no jurisdiction and that the grand jury was not constituted according to law. Employers Liability Law Test. Scarcely of less interest in the la bor woj-ld will be the cases involving the constitutionality of the employers' liability law of 1908. This law was passed by congress to take 8ie place of the act nullified by the supreme court because it applied to intra-state commerce as weli as to interstate. The present law has been attacked along the saraeSines. The Labor Cases. Of even greater Interest is the case involving the contempt proceedings against the officials of the American Federatiqn of Labor. Samuel Gom pers, president of the federation. Is under sentence to serve 12 months in jail; John Mitchell, formerly president of the United Mine oWrkers. nine minths, and Frank Morrison, secretary of the federation, six months, all for alleged contempt of the supreme court of the District of Columbia in that they disregarded the injunction to ctise interfering with the business of the Puck's Stove and Range company, of St. Louis, which had brought suit against hem to prevent them from boycotting it. All the points ,in the controversv re to be laid before the court for final decision. Missouri Rate Law Case. The Missouri 2-cent passenger rate law and the maximum freight rate law of that state have been set for argument after the contempt cases. The constitutionality of these laws Is attacked.

At a recent mass meeting of the Commercial club, and the citizens generally, a resolution was passed re questing the city council to call an election to vote such bonds. Several prominent citizens appeared before the council, desiring to be heard on the matter. After a great deal of discussion it was the sense of the coun cil that the e'ection be called, but owing to the counilmen being unable to de cide upon the amount of bonds to is sue, the matter of calling an election was deferred until a later date. The council, however, decided to call a mass meeting- of the citizens for the purpose of determining the amount of bonds recessary to Issue to provide the entire city witn the necessary sewerage con nection. The idea of the council is that practically every part of the town should be served, andafter the masa meeting is held they will call the elec tion. - A General opinion is that such election will carry almost unanimously.
