was that he advertised for divorce

did not sign his name TO them. Also
he Is alleged to have solicited a dam

ton, and that he would undertake the

In cases of this description.
AFTER THE OFFENDER.
AS soon as the matter came under
the notice OF the committee on griey-
ances, consisting OF Farley L. Williams
Joseph 7. Richards and NJ NJ KWehn,
a letter was sent 10 the young lawyer
asking for explanations in regard TO
his unprofessional conduct. In re-
ply to the same. written over a year
ago, Silberstein admitted having writ
ten the letter and also that he was
not In possession OF facts IN the case
beyond those set forth in the daily
press, He affirmed that he did not
think that he was acting unprofesslon-
ally as he was under the impression
that his contract with Mr., Cowell and
the method OF practice had been app
proved by the Supreme court In the
case Of Potter VS. Ajax Mining compa-
ny. He further pleaded that he was
young man and Of limited experience
at the bar He also asserted that he
had no desire TO do anything that would
bring discredit upon The profession
PLEADED FOR HIM.
In the discussion that followed there
was a strong sentiment to lay the mat
ter on the table. and Mr.. Critchlow
made plea TO that effect, urging that
the young man was not likely to re-
peat the offenses that had been laid at
his door; also that due weight should
be given TO his protestation Of inno-
cence In the matter,
Mr. Sanford also made a speech in
behalf OF the young lawyer, during the
process of which he asserted that there
We're others IN the profession who were
