MOODY CALLS HIM DOWN.
a Pacific Coast Judge Seems to Have
Exceeded His Authority.

Washington, June 3.-The designation
by Judge William b Gilbert of the
Ninth circuit. of Judge John DeHaven
of the nothern district of California as
presiding judge in the trial of the land
fraud cases in Oregon has led to some
embarrassment among officials here.
The recent death of Judge Bellinger,
who was to have tried these cases.
caused a vacancy in the Oregon district.
1t practically had been determined by
the president and the attorney general
that Judge Hunt, United States judge
of the district of Montana, should sue
coed Judge Bellinger in the trials and
that the appointment of Judge Bel
fingers successor should not be made i'm
mediately. At this point Judge Gilbert,
exercising authority which he supposed
he had. directed that Judge DeHaven
should try the cases. This was dis
pleasing to officials of the department
of justice and a telegram was sent to
Judge Gilbert by Attorney General
Moody inquiring by what authority he
had directed Judge DeHaven to act in
the trials. Thus far no reply has been
received to that telegram. What the
result of the situation will be is un-
certain, and whether the action of
Judge Gilbert will be overruled may de-
pend on the reply he makes to the at
torney generals inquiry.

Jokes and Sayings of the Players Told

Aubrey Boucfcault prides himself on

''Weu, what do you think of that"
he cried. "Old John LIS come to life

guessing.
Suddenly it dawned upon Bouci-
cault that there are seventeen furni-
ture factories in Grand Rapids
Raymond Sill tells story of Lew
Fields, formerly of Weber & Fields,

though it may not be true. Fields

Waterman at his home on West
Eighty-third street. New York, says
Sill The other evening an inebriated
neighbOr of Fields, installing the
comedians home for his own, was
bitten by the collie on the left leg.
The next morning he wrote;

I may suffer from hydrOphObia."
Mr. Fields promptly wrote back:
my dog is worth $500. L demand
that amount of money from you. My
collie is suffering from alcoholism
