tcrday afternoon by his counsel, H. ii.
Ward and Walter II. Hayes They ad-
nit that Mr. Cochran was appointed
Municipal Court judge by Former Gov
crnor Tunnel, and hold It was neces-
|sary that the appointment should be

.ceedlngs in which the old and the new

nation and appointment Of +. K. Coch-
ran. Jr., to the Office and term men

Then more recent incidents OF the
action are related. namely: That after
March .. after the adjournment of the

the City Court of Wilmington. It is
admitted that fortified with the COM
mission Mr. Churchman appeared in
the City Court room and found Mr..
Cochran there. Mr. Churchman read
his commission and when Mr.. Cochran
refused to vacate the chair then Mr.
Caurchman directed Captain Black to
remove Mr.. Cochran. He did So and
Mr. Cochran left the chair protesting
against such action. Then Mr.. Church.
man assumed the chair and entered
upon the duties of the Office, and con-
tinucs to perform them

BURGLARS BNThR
DIR. UALL'S HOME
Pastors ICSlmeHtS StreWn
About The Street and the
House RanSaCked

That the gang Of burglars who are
operating in and about the city do not
respect the clergy, was demonstrated
early this morning. when unknown
robbers entered the residence of Arch
deacon George G. Hall, rector Cf 81.
Johns Church. No 1900 Boulevard.
and stole a number OF articles.
Early this morning Mrs Hall was
awakened by the nose as OF something
falling en- the aoor beneath her Sleep
ing room. She at once aroused her
husband, and told him that someone
was in the house. DR.. Hall laughed al
the idea, and, arising from his bed
locked the bedroom door and thought
mo more Of the matter.
About 4 o'clock Mrs. Hall was
again awakened by someone knocking
LAT the front door. Arising. she went
TO the window and found that il was
the milk man. lie had a bundle in his
arms, which he said was Or. Halls
vestments which he had found in the
Boulevard near the Hall residence MIS-.
Hall at once went downstairs and was
startled to find that burglars had b1en
in the house.
The dining room window was open.
the window in the laundry had also
been raised, and the door leading from
the kitchen TO the pantry. which was
locked from the inside. also was stand
ing open. About the floor in the
dining room and hallway were nu-
merOus candle grease spots, and sew
eral burnt matches were lying about
Investigation proved that two valu-
able rugs. a new bedspread. and Dr..
Halls overcoat, hat and grip had been
stolen. Dr. Hall officiated at
st. Andrews Church last night.
and carried his vestments in an
alligator valise. Upon his return home
he left them in the hall and the rob
bers carried the grip off. Upon finding
what its contents were, IL is supposed
they threw them away and kept the
grip.
The dining rCcm had been thor
oughly ransacked, al. the side
board drawers being open and their
contents upside down.
The theory is that the burglars en-
tered the dining room window and
made their escape by the way Of the
laundry. Beneath the laundry window
mad been PLACID an ordinary soap box.
and IL is supposed that the thieves
hrst forced an entrance through he
window, but after getting into the
laundry could so TO farther, and forced
the dining room window
Footprints ON the cellar door below
the dining room window iudicate that
there was a woman implicated in the
job. The police were notified and are
working On the case.
