SEATS TO BE REARRANGE
Mr.. Gray's Retirement Causes Changes
on Bench of Supreme Coult.

The retirement of Mr.. Justice Gray
will necessitate a change in the seating
of nearly all the members Of the Su-
preme Court. Chief Justice Fuller and
Associate Justice Harlan will not lose
their seats. but the others will be shift
ed around somewhat. Justice Harlan oc-
cupies the seat on the right hand side
of the Chief Justice, and owing to the
fact of his being the senior member his
seat will not be changed. Judge Oliver
Wendell Holmes. who succeeds Mr.. Gray,
will be given the last seat on the left
hand side OF the court.
At the next session of the court in
October. the members will be arranged
as follows:
To the right of the Chief Justice
Justices Harlan, Brown, White and
McKenna to the left of the Chief Jus
Brewer. Shiras. Peckham.
and Holmes.
This. in effect, causes a complete ex-
change OF seats, in a body, from the left
side to the right, Justices Brown, White.
and McKenna having heretofore sat
next TO Justice Gray at the left of the
Chief Justice.

A ray OF hope was shed upon the local

representatives of several of the large
mine operators who assured the local
dealers whom they visited that the
strike would be settled within two weeks
and that the mines would shortly there
after be in full operation. It viii proba-

mines start up before the first supplies

EX GOVERNOR CORNELL
IN PATHETIC PLIGHT
Mentality Giving Way Under Weight
Of His Advancing
Years.

ITHACA, n. Y. Aug. 13.-The fact
that the mentality of ex-Gov. AIonzo b.
Cornell is becoming seriously impaired
became public property here today. al
though his condition has been known to
members of the family and friends for
some time.
Mr. Cornell is suffering from soften

have examined him say they fear he
will never recover The hallucinations
which accompany the decay of his
mental powers have become of such
nature that they can no longer be con-
cealed. One of those hallucinations of
the aged but once active business man
is that he is again in control of the
great financial interests over which he

DISTURBED BY DECISION.
Department Of Justice i'll Ouandary
Over Greene-G -Gaynor Cases.

The officials of the Department OF Jus
tice were very much disturbed yester-
day by the news from Quebec that
Greene and GaynOr have been given their
liberty. Attorney General Knox is not
in town, and Assistant Attorney General
James ". Beck is acting head OF the
department.
Immediately upon receiving informa-
tion Of Judge Caron's decision, Mr.. Beck
telegraphed the information to the At
torney General, who is in Massachu-
sets, and then sent a telegram to the
departments attorneys in Montreal, ask
ing them If. under the Canadian court
system. there is any appeal from Judge
Caron's decision.
The attorneys were also asked to sug-
gest what course they would pursue IN
the Greene and Gaynor cases in view
of the adverse decision at Quebec.
In case Judge Caron had decided that
Greene and Gaynor were extraditable
under the existing treaty the findings in
the case would have been transmitted
10 Mr. Fitzgerald, minister OF justice, for
final review. 1t would have been in his
power to set aside the judgment OF the
court
The opinion here is, however. that in
the case of decision such as has been
given, rejecting entirely the petition for
writ of habeas corpus, the case is not
subject to review by the minister of JUS
tice.
The fact that in some event the Greene
and Gaynor case might go to Minister
Fitzgerald for review was the thing that
disturbed the Department of Justice
some weeks ago when Attorney General
Knox asked the State Department TO lay
the matter before the British foreign
office. Ii was represented that MIR. Fitz-
gerald is the senior member of the law
firm employed to defend Greene and
Gaynor in the extradItion proceedings.

CURRENT EVENTS
In ALEXANDRIA
Allied Street Paving Ques-
ton IS Discussed.
CITY Council Has the Matter Up, and
Urges Payment of Tax by
Property Owners.

ALEXANDRIA,, Va, Aug. 1S.-The
joint committee on streets and finance
of the city council met in the office OF
the city auditor at o'clock tonight for
the purpose of hearing the reports Oh
the property owners who reside on Al
fred Street. between King and Queen
Streets. relative to the new vitrifed
brick pavement that was placed in those
two blocks recently and which work is
ebout completed.
Nearly all the property owners on the
two squares named were present, or
they were represented by proxies. The
meeting was presided over by Mr.. E. s
Leadbeater. chairman OF the committee
on streets. and the objections were noted
by City Engineer E. c. Dunn. The OBJ
jections made were too numerous to
mention, and some were exceedingly
unique.
The two squares in question were re-
Gently paved with vitrifed brick, ana
the work was done under the thirty
third section of the city charter. that is,
the property owners were to nay two
thirds of the cost and the city the re-
mainder. The understanding at the
time was that they were to pay one
fifth of their share of the cost after the
work was completed, and the remainder
to be paid within a period OF four years
from the date Of the first payment.
1t was the intention of the city council
-. i. oh n order
meet this, ami the bonds were 10 be Sc
cured by the notes of the property own
ers. 1t now turns out that the city
could not DO this according to the pro-
visions of the new State constitution,
and it is the wish of the city officials to
secure the money within the next thirty
days or so. To this the majority OF the
property owners most strenuously OF
ject.
Another important objection related
to the proposed parking. There seemed
TO be diversity of opinion on this sub
iect, and all present expressed their
views on the matter. The original
ordinance passed by the council granted
them the privilege OF parking ten feet
from the building line, and the under
standing was that there was to be no
fencing, and the sidewalk was TO be
from the curbing to the parking. The
property owners now want the parking
inclosed with a neat iron fence.
Objections relative to the apportion-
ment of the cost of the work were also
made. A few claimed that they would
not pay until ;he work of paving the
alleys had been done. and several said
that there had been Determinations
made in assessing the cost of the work.
Mr. Leadbeater explained this by stat
ing that the assessment was no longer
made by the front foot, but was made
according to the benefits derived and the
damages accruing to the various abutting
owners.
. After hearing the arguments for and
against the work there was a general
discussion among these present Finally
Mr. Harlow said that he would request
Mayor Simpson, in the morning. to con-
vene a special meeting Of city council at
an early date TO take some action in the
matter.

The local dealers believe that by the

In most of the yards OF the city the

mules munching lazily. the fodder that
is laid before them. The small supply
of coal remaining is in the hands Of
a few Of the largest dealers. The deal
ers have conducted their affairs in n
most humane manner, but they are
about becoming discouraged at the sit

not only their own customers but those
