FOR SUPREME JUSTICE.
Senator Gray May Succeed
Justice Blatchford.
NATURALLY OF A JUDICIAL MIND

A Despatch From Washington States
That the Delaware Mans Name is Now
Most Prominently Mentioned for the
Vacant Judicial seat--secretary ores-
ham the second Man Talked OF.
A special despatch appears in the Phil
adelphis Press TO day dated Washington,
July g. 1t is Of interest to all Del
awareans, particularly the friends ofsthe
handsome and learned statesman who
represents Delaware in the United States
Senate. The salient points from Wash
lngton are as follows:
There Is a disposition among political
spectators TO give more than passing
thought to the rumor that Senator
Gray, Of Delaware, may be successor of
the late Justice Blatcbford upon the
Supreme Bench. He would to some.
degree represent the South II he were
chosen and still be far enough North to
take charge Of the Circnit presided over
by the late justice.
Senator Gray. It Is argued, is natur-
all, OF judicial cast of mind, and his
conservative character would seem to
make him peculiarly dt selection.
When Mr.. Cleveland was engaged in
building bis Cabinet II 1t well known
that he had selected Mr. Gray for his
Attorney General, but the latter did not
take kindly to the idea of leaving the
Senate TO become government prose
cntor.
There Was n Goodness.
1T is said that his refusal nettled Mr..
Cleveland somewhat, as the latter does
not like TO be balked in any Of his plans.
II Is also said that a coolness has existed
between him and the Senator ever since
and that feeling might prevent the Presi-
dent from making Mr. Gray a tender Of
any other high position.
| Should the Delaware Senator be chosen,
however, IL might leave Che way clear
| for che return Of Thomas f. Bayard to
the Senate Mr. Bayard is now ambass-
dor TO Great Britain, but 1t is believed
that as he has enjoyed the honors at
taching to such position, he would not
be averse to giving IL up for seat in the
Senate.
"Some Of Secretary Greshams friends
think that he would accept an appoint
ment as Associate Justice The death
Of Justice Blatchford has revived the
story that was current when Gresham
went into the Cabinet which was to the
effect that Mr. Cleveland had In view
such a promotion for him At that time
there were rumors that Chief Justice
Fuller contemplated retirement from the
bench for the purpose OF taking up bis
former lucrative practice, and Mr..
Gresham was talked Of as his successor.
Secretary Gresham's Chances.
Gas there did not appear to be any
foundation for this surmise, gossip next
turned TO the retirement of Justice Field
and again the name of Mr. Gresham wal
coupled with that Of an associate JUS
ticeship The fact that Justice Harlan
claims Illinois as his home. and Justic'
Brown comes from the adjoining state o.
Michigan, is used as an argument againk'
the selection Of Mr.. Gresham There Il
no rule, however with regard to th'
selection Of justices, and President Cleve
land is likely to be governed entirely b.
his estimate Of a man rather than tn
latter's territorial position

of the original settlers are buried. UI

French Goodness in Surgery.

French surgeons were often astounded
at the cOnsummate GOODNESS of the late DIR.
Nealton when performing operations. He
held that there was little danger when a
surgeon knew what he was about. IF you
have the misfortune to cut an artery" he
would say. remember that syncope will
not occur tor two minutes, and death only
about as long after. Four minutes is four
times as long as it is necessary TO place a
ligature on a blOodvessel, provided that
you do not hurry" sNever To hurry was
one of the elements of his power.
