SUCCESSOR TO JUDGE SCOTT.
Judges Mills and O'Neal Receptive
Candidates-Others Mentioned.

Considerable discussion was heard
among the members OF the bar and around
the Police Court this morning as to the
appointment Of q successor to Judge
Scott, whose death was announced this
morning.
Many members of the bar favor the ap-
pointment of Judge Mills to fill the va
cancy. and urge in support Of their views
Judge Mills long service as acting Judge.
For more than thirty years. or almost
from the establishment of the court In its
present form, he has been an acting
judge. and his service in that capacity
has been most efficient.
Judge Mills told Star man this morn
ing that he was not working for the ap-
pointment. but that he would not decline
1t should the efforts of his friends result
in the tender being made.
Mr.. l.. l. O'Neal. the other acting judge
of the Police Court. will not be an active
candidate for the place. He Is in a recep-
tive mood. but will make no special effort
to secure the place. His friends say that
his experience during his terms acting
judge has qualified him for the position.
Mr.. James Pugh. the present assistant
corporation counsel and prosecuting officer
in the District branch OF the Police Court,
and Hosea B. Moulton, a well known local
attorney are understood to be in the field
prepared to make a fight for the place.
Mr.. Pugh has many friends who will sup
port his candidacy. His supporters say
that his long service prosecuting officer
in the District branch OF the court. which
has made him an authority on violations OF
the police regulations and local laws has
fitted him to fill Judge Scotts place. When
Judge Scott was appointed to succeed Judge
Miller MIR. Pugh was a prominent candi-
date.
Mr.. H. B. Moulton Is understood to have
begun his campaign some time ago. 1t Is
understood that he had several letters from
prominent members OF the local bar, which
recommend him for the appointment as
judge Of the Police Court. His friends have
already begun active work for him.
Another candidate for the position Is
former Representative George Henry White
of North Carolina, colored man MI
White served in the Fifty-flfth and Fifty
sixth Congresses and Is now resident
of Whttesboro, N. J., a town founded by
him.

benefit. and he expresses the desire OF every
one In the department that each year will
see these exercises repeated on an increased
scale. The total cost Of the joint army and
