follows; "Resolved, That while the com
mittee is not satisfied that Judge Kicks
has been guilty of any wrong committed
while judge that will justify it in report
ing resolution of impeachment, yet the
committee cannot too strongly censuTe
the practice under which Judge Ricks
made up his accounts"
Judge Kicks gave "a personal eNplana-
tiOn to the committee of the accounts IN
the Birdscll cases, which he had handled
as clerk of the court and which furnished
ground for the investigation, and testl-
mony against him was given by Martin
W Sanders, who had been his deputy
clerk and succeeded to the clerkship when
Judge Kicks was promoted to the bench.
The review of the case which was Otter
bitter and acrimonious, changed the
opinion Of no member of the committee,
and the charges were ignored, as it hac
been expected they would be, when all th'
members could be brought together for &
vote. The case was made largely party
question, although Judge Ricks had foui
Democratic votes, and as the next con
gress is strongly Republican, there is M
probability that it will be revived.
