Warden CrOckeR,s Tern Of Office.
THE POINT RAmID BY TEE FIRST coNrRolLn OF THR
TREASURY.
The First Controller Of the Treasury has written
to Chief Juseics Bingham Of the Supreme Court Of
the DISTRICT calling attention to the fact that Gen.
John o. Crocker, the warden OF the jan, appointed
March IL, 1859. has continued 70 I'LL that ONCE,
and that the law prescribes that the term shall be
for four yeara Under the act Of February %
1894 (sec. 1O62, r. s. D. CT the term Of once was
nxed at four years and tbs appointment was with
the President. The oct Of Nafch8, 1869 sec 1851,
8 D; c., gave tne supreme Court OF the District
him whenever Ii the opinion OF the court the pub
lie interests might require his removal Gen.
Croker has since 1880 continuously held the Of.
nce, and during this period he has several times
conferred with the members OF the court on this
subject The understanding was that the act Of
1859 Superseded the act Of 1884 and that the term
was for life Gen. Croker nled his bond In s., 600
promptly on being appointed, but for year, there
tached TO his ofce, as the accounts are all passed
through the Attorney Generals ONCE The Chief
Justice states that the controller simply submitted
the facts and the judges will examine the law The
Revised Statutes OF 1871 limit the term OF the war
den OF the District jail TO four years, and require
bond OF s., 900. The Revised Statutes would seem
TO have the force OF Congressional enactment and
ON receiving the letter from the Controller he sent
to Warden Croker, and he called and stated his
understanding OF the law. There IL no material
question raised BY the Controller as TO the legality
or any expenditures
The judges OF the Supreme Court OF the District
had consultation on the subject to-day but no
conclusion was arrived at.
