BY COURT OF APPEALS.
Report Shows Large Amount O.
Business Transacted.

The report of the work by the District
Court of Appeals during the past fiscal
year has been made to the Department Of
Justice. 1t shows that the court heard
and disposed of 1876 cases and left pending
for hearing or decision seventy cases. At
the beginning Of the last fiscal year there
were pending sixty cases and during the
year POS new appeals were docketed.
This record Of the local appellate tribu-
nal exceeds the record for the fiscal year
1907 of all the United States circuit courts
Of appeals. with the exception Of the sec
ond and eighth circuits. The latter dis
posed Of exactly the same number as the
District court The second circuit, how
ever, covers the states Of New York, Con-
necticut and Vermont. while the eighth
embraces the thirteen states OF Arkansas.
Colorado. Iowa, Kansas. Minnesota. Mis-
souri,, Nebraska. North Dakota, South Da-
kota, Utah. Wyoming, Indian Territory,
New Mexico and Oklahoma.
The foregoing gives an idea Of the
amount Of litigation which is annually
disposed of in the District; the number Of
cases appealed equals the number arising
in thirteen states. The local court has
only three judges-Chief Justice Shepard
and Justices Robb and Van Orsdel-while
the second and eighth circuits have four
justices each.
