Chief Justice May Resign.

London, May 3l-Rumors were
extensively circulated today that the
Right Honorable Lord Coleridge,
lord chief justice Of England, has
rendered his resignation to Lord
Roseberry. The rumor also took
the form that the eminent jurist had
intimated to a member of the cab
met that he had reluctantly arrived
at the conclusion that his long ten
ure of service to his country was
practically ended, and that he felt it
incumbent to announce that the pos
sibility of his resuming his position
on the bench was very remote. At
the Coleridge mansion in Belgrade
square confirmation or denial of the
report could not be obtained. 1t
was admitted, however, that for a
month past the lord chief justice
has been confined to his bed with q
serious internal disorder, and that
for the past ten days his condition
has been so serious that his attend
ant, DR.. John Cavendish Hale, has
considered it necessary to call Sill
William Broadbent, the eminent
specialist into daily consultation
1t was also stated that although hit
condition was improved, it will be
impossible, even under the most ia
vorable circumstances for the lore
chief justice to leave his bed fol
several weeks. These facts have
created sensation, as the fact Of
the iurist's illness has been sedu
lousy kept from the public.
