of ''guilty as charged in the indict-

was his verdict. The defendants at

allowed Mr.. Carver his liberty until
next Monday on his old bond. The
penalty for the offense in this terri
tory is Imprisonment in the peniten-
tiary for term not exceeding two
years, or a fine not exceeding $1,000,

fought their way through the streets

marshal and severely wounding sew
eral other parties, and in which one

rehearing in the income tax cases last
May. He had been absent from the city
and from the bench since the preceding
fall, when, soon after the cOnvening of the
October term of court, he had been COM
PEELED to come south on account of his
rapidly declining health. During his alb
sence there had been contradictory reports
as to his physical condition, but the pre-
vailing opinion among his colleagues on
the bench was that he would never again
be able to reSune his seat.
Mr. jackson had the reputation in
Washington, and especially about the
supreme court of being very sensitive
concerning any discussion of his health
in the public press, and he referred to
the subject very spaPingly in his own
conversation The other members of the
court were, therefore, poorly advised as to
his condition. This state OF affairs is said
to have been the reason for the equivocal
character of the announcement of the de-
cision to grant a rehearing in the income
tax cases, which of necessity depended
upon Jackson's presence.
He was in Washington on the occasion
of the rehearing for several days, and gave
his attention assiduously to the income
tax cases. He sat through the argument
which continued for three days, took part
part in the consultation of the court and
when the day arrived for the announce
ment of the decision not only listened pa
tiently to the opinions of most of the other
members of the court, but delivered Wig
orous opinion of his own in support of the
validity of the law This occurred on May
20, and was his last public appearance. He
returned to his home in Tennessee late in
May
When Judge Jackson was in Washing
ton on this occasion " was evident to all
who came in contact with him that life
was slowly but surely ebbing away, and
that the effort he made was at the expense
of his vitality.
AS senator and justice of the supreme
court Mr.. jackson had resided in Wash
ington about eight years. His associates
here were confined to his colleagues on
the bench and in the senate chamber, By
them he was universally esteemed as
man of high moral worth and rich intel
lectual attachments, as was eVlnced in
nothing so much as in his appointment to
the supreme bench by President Harrison
and his confirmation by a Republican SEN
ate, Notwithstanding he was Democrat.
Howell Edmunds jackson was born in
Paris Tenn, April g. 1889. Justice Jack
son was classical scholar, graduating
from the West Tennessee college in 1913,
He studied law two years at the Uni
yersity and in jackson, under his klns-
men, Judges A. W. o. Totten and Milton
Brown; graduated from the Lebanon Law
school in 1856 in which year he located IN
Jackson and engaged in the practice OF
