| nal decisions and decisions on appl- cations for re-hearings. In single
 day the Court handed down eighty
 four original opinions. In doing so the November term of | the Supreme Court was completed, to- l gether with special term lasting only three days. The special term was or dered that several decisions which the Justices desired to touch up might be completed. This twas done and yester- | days big batch of opinions closed the | work of the court for the year. It will meet formally on the second Monday in November for the next l term. It is an interesting fact that the number of decisions by the Court was | practically the same as the number of | cases submitted. Cases submitted and | cases decided. including criminal cases and applications for re-hearing num- | bered about b7S. I It is understood that the Court hopes to get abreast with the docket of the | Court before the beginning of the Mo- | vember term. There are comparative | ly few cases remaining on the docket | and the court hopes to have these cleared up when the court convenes. If | this is done, 1t is assured that the | Court will in the future be ablerAto i keep abreast with It's work. So great has been the demands upon the court | in the past few years that the docket had become congested- But, with the l increase of justices and with the><ex- | cellent progress already made, 1t Is be- | lieved that the docket will be cleared | and that all causes before the Court | can be given speedy hearing in the l future.
