NO SUSPENSION
IN DODGE CASE
CASE AGAINST LOCAL ATToR-
NEYs is DISMISSED.
Supreme Court Holds that Evidence
of Bad Faith Was Not Conclusive
Justice Douglas Files Dissenting
Opinion, Declaring the Charges
Proved.

Order to show cause discharged"
This Is the conclusion of the SUI
preme court in the disbarment pro-
ceedings against Willis e. Dodge and
attorneys The decision filed today.
which was per curian," or by the
court, was signed by Chief Justice
Start and Justices Brown, Lewis and
Lovely. A dissenting opinion by JUS
tice Douglas holds that the two at
tOrneyS should be suspended for a
limited time.
The proceedings were begun by the
state bar association, represented by
Eli Southworth on information fur
nished by the claim department Of the
Great Northern railway, for which
w. e. Dodge was formerly attorney.
1t was charged that the Dodges had
settled claim for damages for $4,000,
but had RENTED to the client on a
basis Of $4,000, representing that this
was all they were able to get.
The decision covers forty pages, re-
court concludes that the circum-
stances were very suspicious, but that
| the evidence was not entirely con-
elusive. In case of such character
more than q preponderance OF
evidence is required. 1t must satisfy
according to the court, was not done,
so the case is dismissed.
The Dodges endeavored to prove
that their client had agreed to give
them everything they collected In ex-
cess Of $4,000; but the evidence on
this point is considered by the court
unsatisfactory. A letter In evidence
from the attorneys to their client, said
that they could get a settlement fol
$500, and advised this rather thar
suit for a larger amount. The
evidence tends to show that when the
letter was written they had an offe,
from the company to settle fol
$4,000, and the court considers thi!
evidence damaging, but says there il
just possibility that the letter Wa'
written before the $4,000 offer was re
ceived. This reasonable doubt is thu
basis of the majority ruling.
In his dissenting opinion Justice
Douglas says he is willing to accep
the majority's conclusion of fact, ant
that these show that the attorneys lie
their client believe they only go
$500, when they got $4,000. Il
conclusion he says:
TN my judgment the undispute'
evidence sustains the charge that tn
respondents are guilty of fraud an
double dealing as members of the bar
and both should be suspended for
limited time"

NOT UP FOR DRINKING
Report of Drunkenness in Fire Depart
nent Was Untrue.

At every fire enginehouse in the city
today indignation meetings are being held
over the report that six firemen have been
before the board of engineers for booz-
ing and that fifteen more cases have
been reported to Chief Canterbury. At fire
headquarters much feeling has been
stirred up.
One Of the board of engineers told T 9
J O ur n al today that the report did the
department an injustice.
Not single case of drunkenness has
been reported" he said. 1T is true that
five men have been on the carpet but
of these, two were charged with fighting,
one with INSTRUMENTATION. one with being
fifteen minutes late and the fifth for being
absent five and one-half hours without
permission. This last one admitted that
I he had taken two glasses of whisky and
| that they so affected him that he did not
! come back to work. That was the only
reference to drunkenness in the meeting.
| 1.-THE meeting Of the board Of engineers
| was the first one held this year for dis
| ciplining the men, and the fact that other
meetings have not been necessary shows
that the Minneapolis fire department is
an orderly organization"

STATELY EI,MS WITHER
Leaking Gas from Main Kills Trees
on Chestnut Avenue.

On Chestnut avenue, from the new
gas holder at Aldrich avenue to
Twelfth street, the magnificent ave-
nue. of trees, which has been the pride
Of the neighborhood, is in imminent
danger of destruction by gas. A new
main was laid last fall and the trees
then began to suffer from the gas
escaping from bad joints. When the
ground froze in the winter, the escape
was temporarily stopped, but as soon
as the frost was out of the ground the
gas began again to escape. Some of
the trees have withered and the leaves
have turned an autumn red. Others
are as baresas in winter.
Along the avenue are some stately
elns that have taken years to obtain
their. their regal height. One of the
owners declared that he would not
have taken $500 for the elnns border
ing his lawn.

BIG MAIN A SUCCESS

Recent tests for pressure of the
water in the mains in Prospect park
show that the scheme of running a
big main direct from the reservoir
pipelines to supply the East Side, ac-
complished all that was expected.
At the hydrant at Clarence and
Seymour avenues, the high point in
Prospect park, a pressure of thirty
four pounds was obtained under nor
NAL summer conditions, whereas, be-
fore the feedmain was laid, the pres
sure was from fifteen to twenty
pounds, and often insufficient to raise
the water to the second stories, or
even to get any water at all.

LOCAL POLITICS
INTER PARTY COURTESY
RETIRING DEMOCRATIC JUDGES
WILL FAVOR, RETURN OF THE
PRESENT REPUBLICANS.

There is talk in political circles that
District Judges Brooks and Pond,
democrats, will bend their own
political strength towards the
election of Judges Harrison and Cray,
republicans with the ultimate end in
view of benehting themselves and con-
tinuing non-partizan bench in judi
cial power. Brooks and Pond seem to
argue that in aiding Harrison and
Cray, whom they consider the strong
est men in the field, they will to a
certain extent weaken the other re-
publican aspirants for the district
bench, and in so doing strengthen
their own chances of reelection.
There is great variance in the
methods being pursued by the army of
aspirants for judicial honors In Hen
nepin county to gain their ends. Some
of the candidates believe an aspirant
for judgeship should simply let his
friends do little talking for him
without issuing any campaign litera-
ture, while others hold that it is up to
him who wants to be judge to plas-
ter the town with cards and posters
the same as candidate for any other
leading political office.
