 From another correspondent.l
 The most pleasant meeting of the ten his club thus far this season was held or their grounds Saturday afternoon at tho usual hour. The racketers were numer ous and the playing spirited despite the very warm weather. After several closely contested contests, in which many brillian plays were exhibited, the game of the day was called by Referee Gager. This con test was between the home talent and tho Chicago lads, and proved to be the mos exciting of any ever witnessed on the hom' grounds. The home players were con stantly cheered on by the many specta tors, but to no purpose, as after an hour play the game was decided in favor of tn Chicago boys by the referee. May w have another such meeting before tn many visitors in town return to their re spective vacations. A MEMBER.

RELIEF FOR THE SUPREME COURT.
Movement by the State Bar Association to
Influence Needed Legislation.

A meeting of between thirty and forty of the
leading lawyers Of the State, called together by
A. w. Hendricks, president of the State Bar AS
ISOLATION, was held in the Supreme Court, yes
terday afternoon. The purpose of the meeting
was to take steps toward influencing legislation
by the mex. General Assembly for the relief of
the Supreme Court from some of the work with
which it is now overburdened. There are now,
it is stated. over seven hundred cases on the
docket. and since the commission was abolished
the work has continued to accumulate much
more rapidly than it is possible for the judges
to dispose of it. Judge Napoleon B. Taylor was
made chairman of the meeting, and Senator
Ferd Winter was chosen secretary.
A letter from Thomas F. Davidson, of Craw-
fordsville read, in which the writer ex-
pressed regret that he would not be able to be
present at the conference, and said: Without
a change in the Constitution, I see no practical
BILE way of relieving the Supreme Court except
by creating an appellate court Mr.. Thornton's
plan publisheda few days ago in the Journal,
contains much that is good, but / fear that so
radical change is impractcable. An appellate
court of FIVE judges, sitting at Indianapolis
would relieve the Supreme Court of half its bur-
den, and would give to the bar and the people
time to formulate and discuss a new system, if
that should be thought desirable"
Mr. Addison G. Harris said that he thought
the ray of the federal judge of Indiana was not
commensurate with the work performed and
offered resolution, which was adopted, declar-
ing that it was the sense of the Indiana State
Bar Association that the Senate bill increasing
the salaries of the federal Judiciary to S., 900
sshntiia be passed, and the Indiana members OF
the House we're requested to give the measure
their support
Judge Frazier said that for years efforts have
been made to secure the passage of an act pro-
viding for the relief of the Supreme Court but
without any success He thought it possible.
however, that the members of the
bar, by a united effort, could bring
sufficient pressure TO bear upon the Legis-
is.ure to secure the passage of a
law affo:6pg some relief. AT his suggestion it
was decided to appoint committee, composed Of
one person from each congressional district to
prepare and report to the association at its No
vember meeting, plan of work, together with a
bill to be introduced at the next session Of the
General Assembly. Judge Taylor was author
ICED to appoint the members of the committee
and call them together at his pleasure. Judge
Mitchell suggested that program me of exercises
for the November meeting OF the Bar Association
should be prepared, and Judge r. S. Taylor A.
c. Harris, and Judge Frazier were appointed a
committee to give attention to the matter. After
admitting John H. Bradley, of La Porte, and
John Mitchell. of Peru TO membership in the
association, the meeting adjourned

A RATTLED spEECH,

AS an off-hand speaker Mr.. CLEVELAND
is not success, if the eXtemperaneous adj
dress at Albany is fair specimen of his
extemporaneous style. 1t is about the
rockiest public speech we have struck for a
long time. His side swipe at the Dutch
was evidently intended to be rebuke to
the Albany aristocracy who hedge them
selves in with the nobility of their Holland
ancestry. His allusion to the new charter
of the city which had been granted by the
state during Mr.. CLEvELAND's admins
tration as governor was probably intended
to remind the Albanyites that they were
living under an American government and
not Holland protectorate. This is the
nearest we can come to interpreting the in
coherent remarks as they are reported by
the Associated Press. OF course due allow
anee must be made for the fact that it was
a gala day in Albany, and it is barely pos
sible that the press reporters sat over their
cups too long and could not give an intelli-
gible report of the presidents speech. At
all events our advice to Mr. CLEVELAND
would be to write out his speeches in the
future before delivering them and to be
careful TO revise the proof.
