The Writing of Books Is an Irksome
Task to Him.

Joseph B. Glider, in the Critic.
The only thing that unnerves President
Roosevelt is literary composition. He
brings to the task of writing a book the
same absorbing and untiring energy that
he displays in warfare. the chase, and poll
teal campaigning; the work Is necessarily
combining, and prolonged confinement and
close occupation become irksome and de-
bilitating to a man Of robust build and san
gulne temperament, accustomed to being
much in the open air. 1t suits some people
perfectly. One well-knOwn author of nv
acquaintance, not far from seventy wears
of age, works in his library from twelve TO
fifteen hours a day, setting foot outdoors
but once a week; yet he has never known a
days illness, and is one of the least nervous
men in America. Sedentary occ.Datfon
agrees with him; he thrives on il. Not so
the President; yet with characteristic
gift he has faced the ordeal Of authorshrp
TO such good purpose that a dozen works
from his pen have made their appearance
within the past nineteen years. And this
in the course OF an arduous public career
covering almost the entire period of his
literary activity.

HABEAs CORPUS CASE BRIEF.
Captain Carriers Alleged Coconspir-
ators Appeal TO Supreme Court.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.-The brief of the
Department of Justice in the habeas cor
pus proceedings of Benjamin d. Greene,
John T. GaynOr, William 7. Gaynor and
Edward H. Gaynor, accused of conspiracy
with Capt. Oberlin NJ. Carter to defraud the
government, has been filed in the United
States Supreme Court, in which tribunal
the case is pending. The defendants insti-
tuted the proceedings with the hope of
avoiding being sent to Georgia for trial.
They raised many points on which it was
alleged that the Federal Court of New York
had erred. All these are discussed at I'M
usual length by the government brief, ION
account" the brief says, "of their bearing
upon the future progress Of this case, as
well as the great public importance attached
10 the settlement of questions OF practice
which by erroneous application have very
nearly subverted public justice in this
case"
After the technical discussion of the
points at issue the brief concludes as fol-
lows: The defendants do not lose any
substantial right by a refusal OF the court
by habeas corpus TO interfere before trial.
The same august tribunal, the Supreme
Court of the United States, will be the final
arbiter on all questions whether they go
up from New York or Georgia. The same
public policy which encourages freedom
of intercourse and interchange OF traffic
and close commercial relations between the
States, and gives the citizens of one State
equal rights in carrying on business and
contracts in another State demands that
perpetrators of frauds committed in a
State who flee for refuge TO other States
should be brought to quick trial. In the
case at bar four Of the government wit
nesses have died since the eourt-martial
trial. Nearly two years have already been
consumed by the defense by fighting re-
moval by technical objections. The Su-
preme Court has said that Congress never
intended by these acts 10 interfere with
the ordinary proceedings in the courts in
advance OF final judgment, and we submit
that ii is the duty of the courts TO so con-
strue the law"
The brief is signed by Marion Erwin as
special assistant TO the attorney general
and Solicitor General o X. Richards.
