ENDORSE CARLISLE
House Democratic Caucus Stands
By His Currency Bill
By a Vote of Eighty-one to
Fifty-nine.
TT CAN NOT PASS
CAN NOT PASS
Unless It Wins More Votes in
the House.

WASHINGTON, Jan. s.-By vote of
81 to SO the Democratic house caucus
voted yesterday to indorse the Car
Isle substitute currency bill now
before the house. Speaker Crisp took
the lead in presenting the resolution
and vigorously urged the necessity of
its adoption. The committee on
rules was instructed to bring in a
rule to-day to close the debate.
Efforts to amend Mr.. Crisp's resolu-
ton were voted down, one of the adj
verse votes showing only thirteen
members of the caucus favora BILE to
an issue of bonds to retire the green
backs.
The result of the caucus is accepted
with considerable apprehension by
friends of the bill potwithstandin
the passage of the resolution of in
dorsement. The 81 votes which the
measure commanded in caucus is far
short of the number necessary to pass
it in the house. It is the belief, how
ever, that many of the SO votes re-
corded against the resolution will be
changed now that the Carlisle bill
has the prestige or the caucus amend
me Mt. But there were several promi-
nenJ leaders who asserted at the
close of the caucus that the vote
showd conclusively that the bill could
not pass.

KICKS ANSWER.
The Ohio Judge Gives Out a
Statement
Regarding the Charges of
Richie Against Him.
WAS NOT HIS ACT.
Kicks Says He Merely Concurred
in Judge Lurton's Opinion.

CINCINNATI, Ohio. Jan s.-Judge
Augustus ]. Kicks arrived from Cleve-
land last night to sit on the court of
appeals. To reporter he made the
following statement:
''Some four or five years ago the
McMullers brought suit in the United
States circuit court at Cleveland
upon a Judgment which they recov-
of Akron, Ohio, for some $500, 900.
The record showed personal service
on Richie in Canada. When sued
upon the judgment in the United
States court he claimed the right
to plead defenses which he should
have made in the original suit II
Canada.
The case was tried before United
States Circuit Judge jackson now of
the United States supreme court, and
Judge Kicks. The latter wrote the
opinion of the court, which was con-
Cured in by Judge jackson. and in
that opinion the court held that the
Canada Judgment had the same force
and effect as the judgment of court
of one of the states OF the union, and
judgment was given in favor of the
McMullers upon the Canada Judgment
with interest writ of error was
made from the Judgment to the SUI
preme court of the United States,
where it is still pending. The court
has had it under advisement for
years
''In due time the McMullers fled a
creditors bill upon their Judgment
so obtained, as above stated and made
Judge Stevenson Burke, ex-senator
Henry B. Payne, A. P. Mcintosh of
Clevel and, and the Cornell estate of
Akron, all parties defendant, seeking
to reach assets and credits in their
hands to be applied to the satisfaction
of their judgment. This, case in due
time was heard upon its merits by
United States Circuit Judge Horace
II. LurtOn and Judge Kicks. Judge
Lurton took all the papers in the case
to his home in Nashville, an after
months of careful considerati N wrote
very exhaustive opinion deciding the
case upon nearly every point against
Richie. This opinion was cOncurred
in by Judge Kicks, so that in both de-
cisions rendered in the cases Judge
Kicks was fully sustained so far as he
participated in the cases by Judges
jackson and Lurton. If he made any
interlocutOry or orders and they were
complained of they were fully re-
viewed and covered by Judge Lurton's
final opinion on the merits of the case.
These are the facts as they will
appear from an examination of the
records of the courts and further than
this Judge Kicks declined to make
any statement, deeming the other
matters too trivial for notice.
Judge Taft read the above and
from a knowledge of the case, con-
Cured therein.

FEDERAL SUPREME COURT.

Decision Handed Down Regarding
Rights of Insurance Companies.
WASHINGTON, Jan. s.-The supreme
court convened yesterday after re-
cess of three weeks. A decision was
rendered in the case of the State of
California VS.. Hooper, by Justice
White, involving the constitutionality
OF state law prohibiting foreign in
surance companies doing business in
the state. The decision sustained
this right of the state on the ground
that insurance is not Interstate
commerce, but Justices Harlan, Brew
er and Jackson dissented on the
ground the state permitted interior
ence with the private rights of citi-
zens of the United States
