The Public Services and Home Life Of the
Deceased Jurist.

The Public Services and Home Life of the
Deceased Jurist
Morrison Renish Waite was born at Lyme,
Conn, Nov. 20, 1916 He was of English an
cestry. and the family coat-of-arms bears the
date of 1912. In the old state documents of
England will be found the death warrant of
Charles II, signed by Thomas Wayte, then a
member of Parliament. The family moved to
this country after the restoration. Judge
Waite's father was Chief-justice of the Supreme
Court of Connecticut. and he studied law
under Matthew Griswold one of the most noted
statesmen of early days. AZ the age of seven
teen the future jurist entered Yale College, and
was graduated with honor at the age of twenty
one in a class which included William NJ. Evarts,
Edwards Pierrepont. Prof benjamin Silliman,
and others who have since been distinguished.
He studied law with his father, but before fin
ishing his studies removed to Maumee City, o.,
and there admitted to the bar in 1889.
He for time the partner OF his pre-
ceptor, Mr.. Samuel M. Young, but shortly
removed to Toledo. continuing with Mr. Young.
Together they built up large and remunera-
tive practice. Richard Waite, younger broth
of the future ChIef-justices was soon after
ward taken into the firm, and the partnership
thus formed continued up to che time of Judge
Wai6e's appointment to the Supreme Court
bench. At the bar he was successful and at
once popular with those with whom he was as
sociatsd. In 1S49 he elected member of
the Legislature, and IN 1862 was Republican
candidate for Congress against Edwin Phalp
but was defeated. at the same time receiving
within 500 of all the votes at Toledo. Gov
ernor Brough rendered HIM seat the SUI
preme Bench of the State. but this he declined.
His first national distinction obtained
one OF the counsel for the government before
the Geneva award commission-his associates
being Caleb Cushing and William NJ Evarts.
Returning TO Cleveland at the close of the arbi-
tration he presided over the Ohio Constitutional
conversation in 1873. In 1874 President Grant
nominated him Chief-iustice of the
Supreme Court. The circumstances of
his appointments and confrmatioE ara
still fresh in the public mind, and formed
striking episode of the time President Grant
had nominated successfully Attorney general
Williams and Caleb Gushing, both of whom
countersd much opposition. and after time
their names were withdrawn and Mr. Waite
nominated. He had been al independent Re-
publican candidate for Congress against one of
Mr. Summers warm personal friends, and had
incurred the enmity OF Suuauer. who. at that
time, also entertained very friendly relations
toward the Grant administration. The
ceedings OF the Senate though more than
dozen years have since elapsed, covered by the
veil Of executive secrecy, show that Mr. Sum
ners speech in opposition TO Mr. Waite was one
of the strongest efforts of thas remarkable mans
life. he dwell historically upon the eminent
services and attachments of each one in the long
line of incumbenEs OF the ofdee of Calsf-i Justice,

wife, believing him dead. had moved away. No
one could tell whsre she had gone. After a
long, fruitess search Mr. Ryerson went to Mex
leo, remaining there many years He accumu-
lated considerable property and then moved to
California where he lived until his brother Mar
tin discovered him, six years ago. and induced
him to come to Chicago. Recently Mr.. Ryerson

she met Michael Kraus, and when her

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, March %. 1T will be remem-
bered by readers Of these dispatches that soon
after President Cleveland was inaugurated I
told of the visit of number of Buffalo saloon
keepers to the capital. and of the fact
that the President of the United States
took them to ride in his private car
cordiality shown by President Cleveland toward
the common herd of his former townsmen.
He has ignored them in the matter
of appointments, and has in consequence
been openly berated by the Democracy of the
Queen City of the Lakes II will also be remem-
bered that he exhibited exceeding bad faith in
treating the application of old German or
Buffalo. named Henry W. Ziegle, to whom he
promised German consulate. The Presid emit
has recently learned that the manner in which
he has treated Buffalonians in general, and the
German element of the population of that city
in particular, is likely to lead to a stampede of
the German vote from the Democratic tick ct In
the coming elections. and he has recently de-
termined to do all in his power to regain this
. owerfu1 section of the Democratic party in
Buffalo. His latest move has been to appoint
Mr.. Jacob SchenkeIberger, of Buffalo, TO be
pension agent at Syracuse, n. Y. Schenkel-
berger is German who served faithfully for
about year in the army during the war He
was a lieutenant in a New York battery of ar
tilleryy and was badly wounded, and still suffers
from his wounds. He is exceedingly popular
among the Germans OF the Queen City. and con-
ducts one of the biggest saloons in that town.
just what qualifications his twenty years a
saloon keeper give him for the Office TO which he
has just been appointed is conundrum; but it
has been represented TO the President that the
appointment of thus man will do great deal
toward arresting the heeira. Perhaps IL will.
but it is not likely TO make Mr. Cleveland any
more popular among the Democrats of Syracuse
who naturally expected that this Office would be
assigned to one of their number. 1t shows that
the Presidents Partially for saloon Keepers has
not entirely died away
