rome spent the creator part of the afternoon
discussing with Assistant District Attorney
Cans the personnel Of the stan with which
he will surround himself when he enters
upon the duties OF District Attorney OF
New York.
To Justice Jerome was shown a story in a
morning paper which quoted Assistant
District Attorney Osborne as soying that
he was misquoted In a speech in which
no had declared that Justice jerome was
suffering from -psychical epilepsy
.Well.' commented Justice jerome, i
have always said that Osborne was good,
brave, honest man. In a campaign many
men are likely 10 say more things than
might appear necessary
"Then he has not committed an un-
pardonable SIM"
.No,' Justice Jerome replied. He then
said:
1T win be rather difficult task to sur
round myself with competent criminal
lawyers. l shall probably have to make
my selections outside the criminal practice
In order to get the best Of lawyers. men
would like to have as my advisers"
When told that IL was reported in New
York that District Attorney Philbin would
be retained. Justice Jerome said:
Il have a very high regard for Mr.. Phil
bin. The matter is one | do not care TO
discuss, naturally"
Justice Jerome indicated pretty clearly that
he did not entertain seriously the thought
that Mr.. Philbin would make such n sacrifice
as II would prove If he should give up his
practice of law, which, IL was expected, he
would resume on the expiration OF his term.
Justice Jerome said that he had not
looked up the law on the subject, pu, I onai
ne was under the impression that he entered
upon the duties of his new Office at noon
on Jan l. at the same time Mnyor-elect
Low took the oath OF Office. lie would
resign his place as Justice of the Court OF
Special Sessions before he qualified, In all
probabihty, and he expressed his belief
that his successor would DE named by Mayor
Low. nm
Mr.. Cans said that after the Lyric, Hall
speech in which Justice Jerome spoke OF
the meeting between Senator Plait ana
Mr. Whitney, the first letter received IN
the next mornings mail opened by Justice
Jerome was from Lewis ) Burchard, the
son of the Rev Samuel y. Burchard, whose
attack on Rum, Romanism and Re-
belllon" brought about Blaine's defeat;
In the letter was a check for a substantial
amount for the campaign iund.
.Hows that for an aftermath OF the
break?" asked Mr.. Cans.
"A finnier thing than that happened,
interjected Justice Jerome, when the old
German came TO me and said 'Chudge, |
YOU vas talking lot init der Jews, and l
thought / would tell you somedingS: Are |
you aware of der greadt numbers OF anti
septic Germans in der campaign -,
lit is needless TO say" said Justice
Jerome, Il found no anti-Semitic feeling |
in the campaign
some one called TO Justice Jerome's
attention the fact that Martin Engcl had |
offered 81 600 reward to any one who could
point out a disorderly house in "de Ate.
'well, il depends largely on what !
Martin considers a diSorderly house, he |
said, end then. addressing Agent Ham
mond Of the Parkhurst Society, who was
his guest to-day, he said
There's a chance for you to make some
money" MIR. Hammond laughed and re-
piled that he reckoned he could find ai
plenty Of disordarly houses in Allen street.
MIR Hammond left here on the evening
train for New York. Justice jerome came
to see him of He said that he expected
Assistant Distric, Attorneys Schurman and
Garvan to come up tomorrow. In addition
to Mr. Gar and in all probability Mr.;
Osborne's retention. Mr.. Schurman ana
Mr.. Garvan are likely to be asked 10 remain
Earlier in the day Justice jerome had
this 10 say with regard 10 the rehabilitation
Of the New York Democracy;
NV notion of Democracy has been that
Il was a body Of principles to guide a man
In his political activities and not doctrine
of eXpedency. Now that the parry has
become rid a the money craze the De-
mocracy will get back 20 those principles
which made il truly great. The details Tor
its rehabilitation are numerous. there are
many things which will have 20 be done
to get the party In proper shapc. u II no
par of the general doctrine. but II is tine
means Of having those doctrines presented
properly To the people"
