Judge SDeer's letter made no mention
of the criminal business. 1t is expected
however, that he will proceed to draw
grand and traverse juries during the week
and that these may be ordered to assem-
BILE later in the month.
This is the term of the court at which
it was expected that the Green and Gay
nor consDiracies cases We're to have been
in February, but the hearing before Unit
ed States Commissioner Shields in New
York being then in progress the cases
were reassigned for this month. After the
adverse decision by the commissioner
the hearing was appealed by the attor-
neys for the accused 10 the United States
Circuit Court for ruling on certain le-
gal questions. Argument in the case was
heard by Judge Brown and his decision
reserved over two weeks ago, but since
then nothing further has been heard from
the matter.
As the attorneys for the accused are
evidently fighting for time it is not un-
likely that a further appeal will be taken.
if possible, 70 the Circuit Court of Ap-
peals or to the United States Supreme
Court.
