No More Judges.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 2-There
has been halt in the appoint nent
OF an additional judge for the terri.
tory OF Hawaii. If the appointment
lie not made by the beginning of 4 he
new year it need not be any surprise.
For some reason President Roose.
velt and Attorney General Knox are
not altogether satisfied with the
representations made to them by
Judge Humphreys, Chief Justice
Frear, National Commiltesma an
Harold Sewall, and numerous
others, and some little time ago the
Attorney General addressed letters
to certain of the Hawaiian judges at
Honolulu irquiriug about the me-
essity for an additional judge and,
it is supposed, about the qualifica-
tions OF candidates.
