DECLINES THE CHANCELLORSHlP

Hon. W. S. HilIes Says Sacrifice of His
Big Income Is too Great to Stand.
1t was announced Saturday that
William S. Hilles of Wilmington,
who was recently offered the appoint
ment as Chancellor by Governor Pen
newiu, has definitely declined the
honor. His reason, as stated to the
Governor, and as reiterated to his
friends, is that he cannot afford fin
ancially to sacrifice his practice. The
Office of Chancellor pays but $4, 500 a
year, whereas his practice is said to
be worth 500, 900 per annum. This
decision on the part of Mr.. Hilles is
disappointing to the Governor, who
sometime ago selected him to heac
the entirely new judiciary of the
State whom he will appoint fol
terms of twelve years in June next
The only appointees decided upol
thus far are Judge James Pennewill
Republican, of Dover, brother of tn
Governor, for Chief Justice, an
Judge William H. Boyce Democrat
of Georgetown, for reappointment a
Resident Judge for Sussex county
Judge Pennewill is now the Resider
Judge of Kent county.
