JUDGE SWAN HAS ONLY go CASES.
Declares 4 $50 Cases Complained OF Are
Accumulation OF 90 Years.

ACCufnulutiOu VI w hcafS
DETROIT, Mich, May 8.-When asked
regarding charges of dilatoriness, made
by citizens Of Michigan, on which an in
~vestigation was ordered by the Depart
ment Of Justice at Washington, Judge
Henry H.. Swan made the following state
ment:
1T doesn't seem fair to charge me with
what happened before / was born. The
1920 cases pending in my court are an &C
emulation of sixty-nine years. I believe
that Judge wilkins was appointed in 1887
and continued on the bench for thirty
three years. Then came Judge Longyear
for five years, then Judge Brown for six
teen years, while / qualified January 20,
1891.
There are cases which were started In
the first year of the court, in which the
chances are that the attorneys and ltigants
are all dead. AS a matter OF fact there are
| only about twenty cases in the United States
Circuit Court not yet disposed Of, which
nave accumulated In my time, and most
of them recently
Some of the lawyers who practise In the
Federal Court think there Is a little politics
in the talk in Washington that a bill may
be introduced to make another district OF
the Northern Division Of the present Eastern
District, with possibly former United States
District Attorney Gordon on the bench if
it goes through.

IN hla nov book, Guarding a GREAT
city, which will appear In tho latter half ~
tho month, William MoAdoo describes IN
detail tho inner workings ~ New York's
police eystem, discusses the various prob
lens growing out n the supervision Of vlos
and crime IN n great city, and suggests GER
tain reforms In administration. The chap
ters devoted TO spcciho subjects, such ~
tho Fast Side, the poolroom evil and
Chinatown, describe phases Of the city life
unfamiliar TO tho average cliigen. Mr..
McAdoo takes the ground that the police
system Of New York city Ia not corrupt
per 90, and that the personnel Of the force
will oompare .avorably with that Of any
similar body Of men in other large cities Of
the world. What Ia really needed, he thinks,
is a better understanding between the citizen
and his uniformed defenders upon tho Coz
operation Of the one depends the efficiency
Of the other.
