yesterday received from the East Ten
nessee Marble works several samples of
polished marble taken from the COM

as an expert that he was summoned be-
fore the ways and means committee

THE SUPERVISORS.
The Strange Case of Judge
Williams.
The Expected Resignation is Not
Filed-The New York World Mat
ter Taken Under Amusement.

The board OF supervisors were in re-
gular session yesterday and multitude
of affairs were disposed of in the way OF
petitions for opening new roads, allow
ing claims for services, granting assist
ance to INDECENT persons, ETC., yet the
two things the board was expected to
do were as undone at the close of the
session as at the beginning. One OF these
was to appoint a successor to District
Attorney Williams and the other was to
pass upon the petition for an appro-
priation of 500 for New York World
benedlction as a sort OF antidote to Mr..
Heywood's sextuple journalistic male
diction. The petition was taken under
advisement with sort of a tacit under
standing that that was the end OF 1t.
A new district attorney was not ap-
pointed for the very satisfactory reason
that there was no place for one.
Judge Williams had neglected to in
innate to the board that he con-
templated an abandonment of his
position. His neglect may be de-
scrlbed as studious and not uninten-
tional, for his name appears on the
minutes as having been granted leave
of absence for twenty days. His ap-
pointment of J. W. Crenshaw as assist
ant emphasizes the situation and in
tensifes the discomfort Of the several
gentlemen over whom the mantle
hangs.
Judge Williams movements by the
way are subjects of conjecture. 1t was
supposed that he had gone to Tucson to
open court but this theory was unten-
able. 1t is not only offensive to the
American idea that any man should
fill two offices at once when the Ameri-
can idea of offices is that their chief OBJ
ject is to be made to 60 as nearly around
as possible. But it is also legal i'm
possibility for any man to be membe
of the supreme court and practice law
either as private counsel or public
prosecutor. So Judge Williams is not
holding court at Tucson whatever else
he may be doing there.
1t was rumored too that he had gone
to Texas and Louisiana to visit friends
previous to settling down to four years
servitude on the territorial bench.
A story was also started that he had
gone to Washington on tour OF re-
creation and to look upon the scene OF
his late triumph. At any rate he ls
gone somewhere and has gone without
leaving an aperture for a successor.
One thing the board did was to ap-
point W. j. Morgan supervisor of the
Gillian Bend road district, a matter
which has been hanging fire for more
than three months. The first petition
for Mr.. Morgan's appointment was filed
before the holidays. On the heels of it
followed a remonstrance bigger than
the petition. This was followed by
other petitions and other remonstrances
in such mum bers that the file on which
they were kept grew too small and the
board was compelled to do something.
