The Rar Trade

In a speech before the Phi Delta Club the
other day, Mr.. Justice Patterson, OF the
New York supreme court, expressed the
opinion that the American bar has de
generated and that its sta andards ha :e sunk
50 low that now the lawyer occupation
has become trade rather than q noble
profession, as once il was regarded.
The question thus raised is a delicate
one and one not to be treated lightly.
Its lection into current thought and news
paper comment has raised something of
fog in New York legal circles, and the eX
pressions Of legal and judicial luminarieS
of the locality on the topic are as various
as they are interesting. Reading number
OF them, as published in one OF the metro
politan papers, we should say that the
consensus Of bar opinion seems to be that
while Mr.. Justice Patterson undoubtedly
was right I'm lis view 1T was both opposed
to ethics and outrageous for him TO men

A fter all, it was an after dinner speech,

considered a" the bar is 50 close that,
under the circumstances an orator shoIld
be given the benefit Of tnat 'reaso IA tie

CAPITOL GOSSIP.

Senator Murphy was at the Capltol yes
terday as usual. His distinguished guest
Mr.. Croker, having taken his departure
on the midnight train, the Senator was thus
enabled TO give little time to hjsSenatorI1i
duties. These, h however, do not 1t
heavily upon his head. He has never 5een
known to make speech. Beyond re-
spending to his name at roll call, Mr.
Murphy's longest speech consisted of the
announcement OF pair There were
number of noted callers at the Murphy mln-
sion Tuesday night, among them being
Senator German. Mr. Croker has de II Of
respect for the Judgment of Mr. German,
and il Is a safe guess that something other
than mere nothines was discussed by those
two Democratic leaders. Mr.. German he
lieves that Mr.. Croker is good KIND Of
man to tie to, and Mr.. Croker does not
believe the star of the Maryland Senaaor
has set for all time.
There has been some talk of Mr.. Murphy
forming an alliance with David B. Hill.
He VIII do nothing of the kind II such an
alliance means the severance of the relations
between Murphy and Croker. The New
York Senator knows who controls Tam
many, and he knows that Tammany prac-
tcally controls the Democratic party Of
New York State. Mr.. Murphy Is @m-
bilious from a two-fold reason; ne wishes
to return tt the Senate and he wants
his son-in-law, Hugh j. Grant, TO be the
party candidate for governor Of New York.
Under such Conditions there is no danger
of Senator Murphy forming any alliance
that is not thoroughly approved by Mr..
Croker. In the meantime Mr.. Murphy,
thoroughly happy and comfortable, wears
his customary smile, attends 10 his sena-
tonal duties in an easy going fashion
that IS not wearing to the nerves, and
waits for the turn or events which will
give the Democrats the next legislature
and his son-in-!aw the gubernatonal n0mi-

Several OF the leading Republicans OF
the Senate who have discussed the matter
among themselves have rea ched the con
cluson that 1t would be inadvisa BILE 10 hold
a party caucus and consider the question
of a party policy until some time after the
holiday recess. In this opinion Chairman
Allison, of the caucus, who has been con
suited also agrees. The Republicans are
seeking L avoid everything that may caase
adivislon o sentiment, ,andtheyare particu-
larly anxious to do nothing that may la Eean
ill-effeot on the Ohio Republicans. The
Senate le; ders ecugnize that Mr. Hanna is
in rather ticklish position a nd until he II
some other good Republican is elected here
will be no declaration o fany kind on any of
the questions pending In the Senate. The
leaders need Hanna E vote, and they want
his election assured. with that vote they
know they viii nave forty three Admins
tration votes I'm the Senate, votes that canbe
counted upon for anything the Adruinistra-
ton wants.
Senator Kyle is looked upon to support
almost anything the Republicans bring for
ward except on matters relating TO silly cr
and finance. This gives the Republicans
Al votes, or l less than half the Senate.
Senator Jones OF Nevada, who cut loose
from his PopuIist friends and Joined the
Republicans in the tariff fight, is also cum
sdered as a Republican on all matters
outside Of money. If Hanna or sCrne
other Republican is elected, or the hopes
Of the leaders are realized with respect
to Kyle and Jones, the Vice President
would have the casting vote in the Senate.
II is proba ble that, BY the middle OF Jan
uary, by which time the Ohio Legislature
will have acted, the Republicans win get
together, agree upon policy with re-
spect Ia the present session, and seek TO
force it through.

Republican members Of the House are
By no means pleased with the outspoEen
challenge issued by the Democratic caucus

caucus, but the date for it has not been
