The City judiciary Committee re-

Coughlin's ordinance requiring that
all drivers of hacks, cabs, hansoms,
coupes, and like other public vehicles
shall be residents OF the State Of Hi
nois and citizens Of Chicago, and pay
an annual license of 80 cents into the
City Treasury. Aid. Coughlin was
present TO defend the measure, his
arguments being chiefly that strange
cabmen do not know the city, and
are likely to take passengers any
where and charge them all sorts Of
prices. II was held that the city
cannot compel men who do business
In the city to be legal citizens. The

A Loud Demand for Ad-
ditiOnal JuristS
on All Sides.
Masterly Statement by
Hon. Joseph A.
O'Donnell.
He Shows the Urgent
Need for More
Judges.

Cook County must have more
judges.
There is crying demand for the
passage Of the bill now before the
Legislature providing for the election
of five additional Superior Judges
and five additional Circuit Judges.
Hon. Joseph A. O'Donnell, the
well-known Chicago Representative,
has prepared the following statement
showing the great necessity for the
passage of the bill:
The condition Of the business Of
the Circuit and Superior Courts of
Cook County is such at the present
time as to render it absolutely neces-
sary that provision OF some kind
should be made by the Legislature by
which 1t can be more promptly dis
peaed of Notwithstanding repeated
additions to the number OF judges,
the business Of both courts is in a
worse condition than it ever has been
before.
A trial cannot be had In the Circuit
Court in a contested common law
case (other than one Of the kind that
may be placed upon what is known
as the short-Cause calendaD in less
than from two and one-half to three
years, nor in the Superior Court in
/ less than from two to two and halt
years, while a contested chancery
case cannot ordinarily be disposed OF
in the Circuit Court in less than two
years, nor in the Superior Court In
less than one year.
COMPARATIVE STATEMENT.
In determining the cause Of the
present congested condition of the
dockets of our courts the following
statements showing the total number
Of cases commenced in the two court,
each year, commencing with 1885,
and ending with 1892, should be care
fully considered:
Cases commenced in 1886 in Circuit
and Superior Courts, 9,554; com
menccd in 1887, l,55l; in 1888, II,
SOB; in 1889, 13, O69; in 1890, IL, sS3
in 1891, II, s37; in 1892, 1856.
That there has been a correspond
ing increase in the business Of th'
Criminal Court appears from the fol
lowing statement:
Number of indictments found il
1886 in Criminal Court, 1900; il
1887, 1850; in 1888, l,790; in 1889
1900; in 1890, 2,OG7; in 1891, 2,24O
in 1892, 2,57O.
Although since 1887 the number O
judges has been increased from eight
cen to twenty there has in fact bee
no increase In the working fore
available for the disposition Of tn
Circuit and Superior Court commo
law and chancery dockets. On tn
contrary, less Judges are availabl
for that purpose now than there wer

clear when the number OF cases COM
menced per annum was ll,5ll, 1t is
not TO be expected that the twelve
judges now available will be able to
promptly dispose of business when
the number OF eases commenced per
annum is 1856.
CRIME INCREASES WITH POPULATION. !
In view of the rapid increase in /
the population Of Cook County. from |
which there will, in all probability, |
follow a corresponding increase in its
criminal business, it is to be expected
that the business of the Criminal !
Court will hereafter require the con-
stant attention of at least five judges
1t is OF the highest importance that
criminal cases be promptly disposed
of, as well because every person ac
cused OF crime is entitled TO a speedy
trial, as because the prompt prosecu-
tion and conviction Of criminals has
tendency to decrease crime. The
work Of the Appellate Court of the
First District will require the entire
time of the three judges. Hence, 1t
the number of Circuit and Superior
Court Judges remains at twenty
there will continue to be not more
than twelve Judges available for
the disposition of the common law,
chancery, and other cases which
are brought in the Circuit and Su.
perior Courts. OF these twelve at
least seven will be required for the
proper disposition of ehancery cases,
AS our experience Of the last few
years indicates that at least two
places on the bench will be constantly
vacant by reason os the illness OF
judges or by reason Of designations,
it follows that If the necessary num-
Der of judges are detailed TO take
proper care of the Appellate Court
work, the criminal and chancery
cases, there will not be more than
three judges left to try the common
law cases of both courts and dispose
of special assessment and condemna
tion cases, which latter class Of cases
are becoming SO numerous that it is
thought they will themselves alone
require the CONSTANT attention of two
Judges. From these facts it is mani
fest that relief OF some kind Is
pressing necessity.
1t would seem, therefore, that nt
other course is at present practicabl,
!, excepting the election of the ten ad
ditional judges to which the count.
is entitled under section % of article
6 of the constitution. II this is no
o done at the present session Of tn
, Legislature, and the business of ou
. courts continues to increase as 1t ha
increased for the past three or fou
> years, we will soon find ourselves /
= a condition where it will requir
n four or five years, instead
three, as now Of patient wait
ing upon the part OF lit
q CANT before he can secure trial
= his cause in the Circuit or SuperiC
+, Court. 1t is unnecessary to sugge'
: that such an administration Of ju
9 tice is scandalous and disgraceful.

Is the motto be seen everywhere.
The Worlds Fair robbers, as a
rule, are very pious men.
The Fair is closed on Sunday in
order that the robbers may take a
fresh hold of their victims on Mon
day.
Robbery
Why, the James and Younger boys
in the heydey of Missouri rutiianism,
were never in it with the Worlds
Fair outfit.
Robbery
Why, they charge an excrbitant
price for glass of water at the Fair
Robbery!
Why, they have recently issued an
order permitting smo king on the
grounds, in order that % cents a
throw may be collected from smokers
for the use of concessionary spit
tOons.
What a climax OF grabbing this

People are now commencing to
see what the alleged Worlds Fair"
is.
1t is a deluson and a snare.
1t is collection of whitewashed
buildings put up for the purpose of
attracting the unwary, that they
may be thoroughly skinned.
The exhibits for which no other
than the general admission fee is
charged consist principally of few
old locomotives and some large Gu
cumbers.
The exhibits for which an extra
admission fee is charged are so nu-
merous as to necessitate their de-
