Mr. Clllliert was nppmnteil to sit In these cises, and his rom ponsatlon was tlxod liy Ills formvr luxv paitner. Julius M. .Mayer, now a United Slates Circuit Court .ImlKe, here. I'ntll a few months acn Mr Mitjcr was a United Slates llislnei Court Jitdso and thus hail Jurisdic tion over tlie rases In which rlKlit Kit ' companies In Hit' Consolidaled .system ' attacked the SO-cenl u Imw as enn ilscalory. After a discussion In'tween Assist ant Attorney (Itneral WIINt V. Chandlers and inemliers ol the United States Supreme ("out I a few days iiro, Mr. Chambers Inrornied that tribunal ho would move to have the question of Mr. Cdllieit's compensa tion consolidated with the uppeals taken by the State, elty and lounty apalnst the flndlngx of Mr. C.IHiert and .1 uilro Mayer, thai the rale was confiscatory. , In arguing on his brief for the S.nte ill tliJ New York and (.fheens appeal, Mr. Clnjnbcrs culled the attention of the Supremo Court to the fact that Mr. Gilbert, "the same monter who sat In the Coiusolidated e:uso argued teforc you two months ago, s.it In this case ami the question of the $57,500 fto allowed him there. Is coming up to this body on appeal." "Why," Interjected Justice Vande venter, "I read in the papers that he sot J'Jf.OOO." "That is not all he irot," replied tho Attorney General. "That was tho compensation In only four of the casca. In all eight ho received a total compensation of $118,000." ,.lt wjim The Kvcnlng World that first reported tho compensation awarded Mr. Gilbert. At this point Chief Justlco raft asked "Did these, fees cover tho same period of time?" "No," said Mr. Chambers. "Mr. Gilbert started one. ayo and then went on to the next. It was a continuous affair. The whole thing took about a year and a half, during which time Mr. Gilbert continued in his prlvato 1rncticc." "There is u differenco In the fee allowed for ono special service and if ho wero employed continuously," re marked Jti.stleo Day, apparently le ferrlng to the custom of allowing larger compensation for doing a par ticular piece of work than If the man wero on monthly or yearly salary. Hero Mr. Chambers culled attention to court rulings that tho fee of a master should not bo higher than that of the highest paid Judge In tho court which appointed him. Tho sal ary of a United States District Court Judge is $7,500 a year. "Would you expect the bar to agree to that?" asked Mr. Tart smil ing. "Perhaps not." answered Mr. Chambers, "but the liliMie st tin Id Judge, in the New York district get ii.auu a year (a statu Supreme Court Justice) and certainly the rces should not be higher than that." "Have we any fucta on tho lees In these cases before ua In the record?" asked Jubtlco I'ltney. "No, but" wo will bo able to send tho court certified copies of tho or ders. Shall I send them down?" asked Mr. Chambers. "You may do as you feel advised," leplled the Chief Justice, and then It was that Mr. Chambers declared ho would do so and move to havo the question or tho fees consolidated with the original rases. Hoth the city and the State, In their briefs to. tho court on evey case, hao devoted fully as much mi aen tn the allegation they have not had a lair in.ii oeioro the special master as to answerim; legal questions In volved.
