II. E. MORRIS NOT A CANDIDATE.
Could Not Take q Federal Iuds Cship II II
We're offered Him Again.

Senator Plat said yesterday: Here is
a copy OF a letter received by me to-day
from Robert c. Morris, which in justice
to Mr.. Norris. | deem hould be made pub
lie. | nave forwarded the original TO the
President;
Hon ThomGs q. Pjrr. N R%ro1iujM
My DEAR SrNAroE Pl.,Tr. The impression
seems to prevail thar | have been. and am
still. a candidate for the new Federal Judge
ship AT least the newspapers continue to
refer to me in this way and as this impression
10 entirely erroneous. as You know. and puts
me in u wrong position, ] think il ought 10
be corrected in a way that can leave no mis-
understanding,
The fact is that my attitude toward This
appointment is the same now a it was when
a place upon the Federal bnuch was offered
TO me by President Roosevelt, three wears
ago. was then unable to accept the ap-
pointment because of my pro fessiOnal ohll-
cations, and would to-day, for similar rca-
sons. be unwilling 10 accept the position.
and should have to decline II if il we're offered
to me,
sincerely appreciate Your kindness in
suggest ing nv name 10 the President, as II II
an evidence of the strong friendship which
exists between us, but in view of the fact
that ! could not accept tn" position If il were
offered To me do not care to have any one
cont niue under the impression that | desire
II. and | will, therefore. be much Obliged
If you Will communicate this information to
the President, With kiudc>, regards, very
sincerely yours, RORfET {. Morris.
Not the least interesting feature of the
foregoing letter is the news hitherto I'M
printed that President Roosevelt offered to
appoint Mr., Morris to the Federal Judge
ship now held ny Judge Holt and that Mr..
Morris was compelled by professional en-
Gageinents to decline the place.
President Parsons of the New York Re-
publican county committee, it was said
yesterday. believes that President Roo-e-
welt will appoint stephen II. DIN 20 he the

RECEIVER FOR WALSH ROADS.
Banker who iiIuldatcd His Banks See
No Other solution.

CHICAGO. June ~5.-Receivership proceed
ings against the railroads of John h. Walsh
are imminent.
This became known to-day when il was
revealed that there is dissention which
amounts almost to open QIIarrelling among
the banks of the Clearing House Assocla-
ton which advanced more than Sl4 600. 900
to liuuidate the Chicago alton and Home
Savings banks last December. Members of
the Clearing House committee, managing
directors of the Walsh deal. are divided
into two factions, Unable to agree on the
course to take to clear the banks Of the
Walsh tangle.
The demand for a recelvership became
insistent n few days ago., when it became
known to the Associated Banks that the
financial affairs OF the Southern Indiana,
Chicago Southern and Illinois southern
roads are in a bad way.
There has been a great deal Of Rrumbling
among the banks for some months" said
a man in close touch with the situation
through one of the most hea Willy interested
banks, to-day. Ever since the deal to
sell the Walsh roads fell through in New
York grumbling has grown louder, The
bankers are not satisfied 10 have their
money tied up in a venture which looks
more hopeless every day. The only course
open to give relief seems to be a receiyership

Ticket, Says Their secretary.
The committee Of lawyer which has
been formed to put an independent lu-
dietary ticket in the field next fall will not
seek the cooperation of any organization,
political or otherwise. The lawyers ticket
will be made up entirely by the committee
whici has been chosen for that purpo Sc, y
Charles G. Birmingham, the secretary OF
the committee, said yesterday, We do
not propose to confer with any other body,
because such a course would not come
within the acope of the plan which the com
mittee has mapped out. or course we shall
be pleased to receive suggestions. not only
from business and professional associations
but also from the political organizations,
and ] can promise on behalf OF the com
m ttee that every name so
will receive the most careful and respectful
consideration. But there VIII be no fusion

it will be made up entirely on the Judgment
Of the committee,

The executive committee of the Citizens
Union at a meeting held yesterday adopted

views of the lawyers committee or the
judiciary situation agreed with the views

proceed with its proposition to select a com
mittee Of one hundred to decide upon candi-
dates for the Second judicial district. The
committee was intended to pick out candi-
dates for both the First and Second districts,

B. J. Reilly, one of the proprietor Of
the Palace hotel in this city and who
operated the famous Reilly lease on the
Florence ground, in Goldfeld, last year,
came up from San Francisco, where he
has been spending the winter, Thurs
day night. Mr.. Reilly was in his house
on Sacramento street, near Devisadero,
when the earthquake occurred and
though the building and contents were
damaged, to some extent, neither he or
his wife were harmed. They also es-
capped the flames and remained in the
house until last Sunday, when they left
for Reno, where Mrs. Reilly will spend
the next two weeks, while B. J.. looks
after his mining interests in this
section.
Mr.. Reilly says the work of rebuild
ing the devastated city has already
commenced. The S. P. Co. is prepar-
ing to lay a temporary track on Third
street, on which fiat cars will be run to
haul the debris away. This work alone
will take five or six months.
