sentative BrOderick minority report.
The friends OF Kicks are eudeavoriug to
reverse the decision of the previous meet
ing, but after three hours there was no
sign of conclusion. Bailev's report saws.
concerning the charge that Kicks de-
trauded the Government of fees: Con
codiug all that the Judge claims and
waving the moral question of soliciting
solvent parties for himself and leaving
the lnSoIvent for the Government, he
does not escape the charge of defrauding
the United States. The purpose, and the
only possible purpose, III picking out
these cases and anticipating their fees
was TO increase his personal comDensa-
ton, and i'll doing that he was not only
violating the law but practicing a delib-
crate fraud, as can be easily seen by
simple calculation"
Finally the committee decided by a
vote OF to to reopen the case by ex-
tending an invitation to Judge Kicks TO
appear before them, if he so desire. with
his witnesses, and give like invitation
to the other side. Ihis action was taken
on motion of Harrison OF Alabama, who
