more than four times. But his reputation
as a manipulation of primaries and small
conventions is above reproach. What is
wanted by the Federal bench and bar in
New York is an additional judge who can
give particular attention to admiralty cases
which are piling up beyond the ability of
the courts TO dispose of them. According
to the leading lawyers of Buffalo and the
new district generally. Mr.. Hazel knows
as much of admiralty law as he does of
Chinese. The Bar Association of New
York City is about TO join with them in
their protest against the confirmation OF
this premium tulip of Plattism in the
public service.
When a committee from the Erie Coun-
t. Bar Association were recently in Wash
ington they had an interesting experience
in the course of their efforts to prevent
what is generally regarded as an outra-
geous assault upon the character and dig
nifty of the American judiciary. The story
goes that when the committee interviewed
the President he told them that Hazel
had beer recommended by both New York
Senator's and the member of Congress
from Buffalo. but that If Senator DepeW
would withdraw his endorsement the nom
inatiol might easily be held up. So Sen
ator Iepew was sought out and he de-
claTed tia. it mattered not what he might
do. the scheme to work Hazel upon the
bench would go through Just the same;
and his word would be without weight in
the case. This strange but perhaps
true view of the situation being reported
to Mr.. Mckinley, that distinguished man
advised the committee to tell Senator De-
pew that his word had the very greatest
weight at the White House. This execu-
tive declaration was at once presented to
the recipient, but it only resulted In an
other dodge. He would not withdraw his
endorsement; perhaps because the Van
derbilt interests have to be diplomatic.
remembering that they have Albany as
well as Washington legislation to count
with.
Hazel may be confirmed or not. we do
not venture any prediction: but his nomi-
nation in the circumstances Is about as
the most fastidious could desire. A man
who VIGOROUSLY is not a lawyer. save
barely in name: who is denounced as unfit
by nearly the unanimous voice of the bar
which would practice before him. and who
is totally ignorant Of the branch Of law
with which he is expected to most concern
| himself. is foisted upon, the country by
machine politicians as reward for party
service. His best friend and most able
advocate before the Senate Judiciary Com
mittee the other day could only say Of
him that If the public would wait ten
years it would discover that he had
learned to be an excellent barrister and
an accomplished jurist. Upon the same
reasoning Fritz. in the opera Of La
Grande Duchesse." begged to be appointed
schooimaster of his native village SO that
he might learn to read.

East Park street, and his illness was d.
agnosed as smallpox this morning. He

TIL friends of Mr.. McLennan are sore
to-day at the action of the city authori-
ties in not taking care of the patient and
removing him to the pest house. They
offered to pay the authorities all of the
expenses If Mr.. McLennan was removed
to some isolated place. Mayor Mccarthy
said that the city had no pest house now
and therefore could do nothing. The
county commissioners, however, rendered
the city the use of the pest house but
Mccarthy said ne could not take
any action.
There are some 50 or 60 roomers at the
Oakland block, where Mr.. McLennan Is
quarantined and it was stated this aft

Abraham Lincoln, our martyred presi-

dence often led him to seek ounse and
advice from them. It is a fact that he
was fully warned by one no to attend
the theater in Washington the night he
was shot, and had this advice been heed

been spared, and John Wilkes Booth
would not have been an assassin.

QUEER BURGLARY,
DESK IN ROoTE & CLARK's Law
OFFICE OPENED, BUT MOTH
ING Is TAKEN.

A burglary that was not reported to the
police occurred Thursday night in the
Mantle & Bielenberg block. The failure
OF the parties interested to report the
matter to the police is probably due to
the fact that nothing of value was aiken.
When the law Office of Jesse B.. Roote
and w. A. Clark, jr., was opened yester-
day morning 1t was found that the desks
and private drawers Of the occupants had
been pried open and the papers had been
scattered over the floor. The locks had
been broken to gain access to the desks
adm drawers, a heavy chisel, apparently,
having been used.
An inventory was taken of the matter
contained in the drawers and 1t was
found that nothing was missing. The
desks contained nothing Of value. The
letter book of the Arm had been taken
into an adjoining room n from it's APP
pearamce had been scanned by some one,
but non of the pages had been removed.
The ~supposition is that the party or par
ties who entered the room were in search
of the private code book used.
Entrance to the room was obtained
through the transom. The wood work
surrounding the transom showed finger
marks in the dust and the bottom por-
ton of the transom bears evidence of
somebody having been pushed through
the aperture.
1.-The midnight marauder found a few
small trinkets of little value in my desk.
and there were probably ake to divert
suspicion from the real purpose of The
visit" said w. A. Clark, jr., today. "They
~ransacked all the drawers containing the
private correspondence of Senator Clark
and Charles w. Clark, but so far as I
can ascertain no papers were taken.
They were evidently after Information,
but I don't think they obtained much.
Most likely they were after the cipher
ID book, but 1t was not in the Office"

ANOTHER NIXON SUIT.
Trustee Spencer Sues A. F. Bray for
One Thousand Dollars.

George H. Spencer, trustee for the Sill
City Mercantile company, brought an
action to-day to recover 81, 900 from A. F.
Bray. The complaint, after reciting the
bankruptcy proceedings against the Nix
ons and his appointment as trustee, al
aeges that Mr.. Bray got into the deal on
December 80, 1899, the day the defunct
went up, n by inducements
the Nixons to pay him his accoun
he knew they were i%nsolvent and
that thereby he obtained a preference
over other creditors within four months
prior to the filing of the petition in bank
ruptcy; that demand for the money was
made July "a, but he refused to pay.
Hence the lawsuit.

WANT MORTGAGE RELEASED.

Mary H.. Bottego VS.. Martin Dougherty
and Margaret Dougherty is the title of a
suit commenced in the district court today.
The plaintiff asks for judgment for S258. 10
gains the defendants. In the complaint
the plaintiff alleges that on the 21st of De-
cember OF last year she executed and de-
livered to the defendants a certain MORT
gage, and that on July q of this year she
paid to c. s.. Passmore, for the defendants,
$1,WD, together with the accrued interest,
In discharge of the mortgage; that the de-
PENDANTS received the money from Pass
more; that on the last date mentioned she
demanded from the defendants a release
of the mortgage, but they refused to give
1t and still refuse; that by reason of their
failure to release said mortgage they are
indebted to her in the sum of 500, and
$5S.40 which she has already paid or will
have to pay as an expense of bringing the
suit to enforce the cancellation of the
mortgage.
This suit grew out of one brought by
Margaret Dougherty against the Bottegos
and Mary H. Thomas, a short time ago,
to prevent the contamination of fore
closure proceedings on the property in
volved. To that suit the plaintiff made
answer in which they admitted the pay
ment of the money to Passmore & Co., to-
gether with the interest and other emolu-
ments.
