COOKSEY is SCOLDED.
Supreme Court Administers Its
Reprimand Today.

The supreme court in its session to-
day reprOved 9 R CoOksey Of Kansas
City for bringing the disbarment pro-
ceedings against c. W Trfckett, as
sistant attorney general Of Wyandotte
county The court called Mr. Cooksey
before the bar and read a three page
review of the case ending with these
words. We must disapprove the con-
duct Of the accused in this matter.
but believing also that the duty and
dignity OF the h0uorab bic Office of an
attorney are now fully realized by
him we Will proceed no further in
the case"
In his pIeadings in the dfsbarment
proceedings against him Mr. Cooksey
said that he brought the proceedings
against Trickett, partly from malice
and partly because other attorneys
told him he ought 70 do it. It was
shown in the case that most OF his
charges were untrue and he adj
mftted it. So the court Iectured and
did not disbar him.
