ed certainty. The appointment will
be made soon after Congress convenes,
next month. A number of important
cases are now before the court. and they
demand a full bench.
Prominent southern Republicans here
insist that the South Is entitled to Cabi-
net recognition. and the name of Assis-
Carolina. will be presented to the Presi-
dent as that of a representative southern
Republican for this distinction. The
southern members of the National Re-
publican Committee will unite in urging
Colonel Boyds appointment, and unless
it Is the policy of the President TO ignore
the South entirely, in the makeup of his
Cabinet, there is strong probability OF
Boyds appointment being made. Senator
Pritchard, it is understood, heartily en-
dorses Colonel Boyd for Attorney-Gene-
raj, and will come to Washington in a
few days, it is said, in his behalf.

FULLEXTENT OF LAW
JUDGE HANCKEIs DECISION IN
NORFOLK CONSPIRACY CASE.
FINE, $1,000; JAIL, TWELVE MONTHS
Regrets That the Punishment II So
Utterly Ont of Proportion to the
Infamy of the Onence-Appeal
Taken.

NORFOLK, VA. November 13.-(Spe-
Corporation Court, to-day rendered a
decision in the noted case of Hall. Smith.
and Cannon, who were tried for con-
spiracy against the chastity Of Mrs. LII
liam Balm Cannon. the young wife Of Can
non. He imposed a sentence OF 1900
fine and twelve months Imprisonment
in Jail on Guy Hall and Joseph p. Cam
non, this being double the punishment
imposed by the Police Justice and the
full extent Of the law. In the case or
Willie Smith, one of the consprators,
who turned States evidence. sentence
was suspended.
In his decision Judge Hanckel said:
"As there is no specific statute cover
ing this offence, reference has to be
made to the common law. Conspiracy
is there defined as a misdemeanor, and
under section SC02 Of the Code Of Vir-
glnia, edition OF 1887, a misdemeanor for
which no punishment is prescribed by
statute shall be punishable by fine or
confinement in Jail, or, in the discretion
of the jury. by both. An examination
Of the Code discloses the fact that no
msdemeanor is punishable by longer
term in Jail than twelve months, and by
no fine exceeding 5000. This. then.
would seem to be the maximum punish
ment that can be imposed" The Court,
accordingly, sentenced Joseph p. Cam
non and T.. Guy Hall to be confined for
a period Of twelve months in the city
Jail. and assesses a fine Of $1,000 against
each of them, and doing so wishes to add
that 1t must be a matter OF regret to
all decent people that the punishment
is so utterly out of proportion to the
infamy of the offence.
Bail was increased to 5000. pending
the decision of the Supreme. Court, TO
which the case has been appealed.
