SUPREME COURT coNvENEs.
All Members Present-A Number OF
ATTORNEYS Admitted.

The United States Supreme Court to-
day convened for the October term. but
without transacting any business be-
yond the admission OF a number of at
torneys. and adjourned to make formal
call upon the President following the
usual custom.
The entire bench was present. includ-
ing Justice Day, who was so Ill last
spring that he had been unable to attend
the sittings of the court for several
weeks before it's adjournment in May.
There was also liberal attendance of
attorneys. and the lobby was filled with
spectators.

hearing of motions assigned for today
would take place tomorrow.

43S eases, 1872 of which have been dock
eteG during the recess.
The answer of the state of Colorado 10
the amended bill of the state of Kansas
in the suit of the latter state TO enJoin
Colorado from the further appropriation OF
the waters of the Arkansas river for irriga-
ton purposes. was filed today in the court.
The document was presented by Colorado's
attorney general n. G. Miller, who is to be
assisted in the case by formidable array
OF counsel including former United States
Senator Wolcott. The answer sets up the
contention that the United States Supreme
Court is without jurisdiction.
1t also is denied that the Arkansas is a
navigable stream, or that the use of the
water for irrigation in Colorado has the
effect of diminishing the volume of the
stream in Kansas. The use of the water
for irrga ton is defended in accord with
the custom prevailing in the arid region of
the country, and the fact is set forth that
many of the ditch corporations now operat-
ing in Colorado were Incorporated by Kan
sas when that state comprised the territory
now embraced in Colorado.
Charles G. Goodale, solicitor for the
Graham Ditch Company. also filed the an
swer of that company to the complaint
made by Kansas against it.
