was hoped that his condition would
improve and his reason once more be
stored but we are sorry to chronicle
the fact that Mr. Alexander lapsed in
tc a worse condition, and on Wednes
Cav was transferred to the asylum at
Jackson. The Times representative
having known him since 1897, at once
started a correspondence with the may
or of Troy, n Y, where Mr.. AleXan-
Ger was raised, to notify relatives, II
any such were living. On the 9Th inst.
letter was received from Mayor Eli

ton in the daily papers they were alb

9ndcr lived in Troy scme 20 years
ago. and that at present he has a
brother living in Albany, n. Y, by
the name of John A. Alexander, to
whom we Eavc enclosed our communi-

Yesterday the Times received a let

First street, Albany, n. Y, stating
that he was a brother of H. A. Alex

five years He thanked the Times for

for 'ull particulars as to his brother s

CHIEF JUSTICE FULLER.

In the history of nation whose
government is planned like that of the
Uuited STATES, the judicial department
has always been and will ever be a
decisive influence Particularly has
this been true during the last quarter
of a century, and during almost that
entire period Chief Justice Melville
w Fuller has been at the head of the
supreme court. In his death, therefore
has passed, not only n great jurist, but
also one who has played most i'm
portant, though retiring, role in our
national life-the life and growth of
our law.
Within the two and twenty years of
The Greenville times. [volume] (Greenville, Miss.) 1868-1917, 1910-07-08

his service. Chief Justice Fuller has in
terpreted the constitution as it. bore
upon momentous phases of business
and human affairs. 1T is doubtful if
any president or any congress within
that time faced weightier issues He
has thus FLEA large place in Amer
lean history.
In international affairs also his ex-
perience has been noteworthy. He was
a member Of the international court
of arbitration at The Hague that set
tied in 1905, a dispute between Eng
land and France with reference to
their rights in Persia With the late
Justice David J. Brewer he was a mem
Der Of the Anglo-Venezuelan bound
airy arbitration tribunal in 1899, and
one of the last services Of his life was
rendered as arbiter between Panama
and Costa Rica in a difference over
the boundaries Of thetwo countries.
He was a true and valuable friend to
the cause of arbitration and thus a
very practical promoter of the world s
peace.
Not only as a master Of law, how
ever, but as human personality,
Chief Justice Fuller will be remember
ed as one of the most interesting men
Of his age He was a singularly we'll
balanced character He achieved Ii
stinction not by any sudden leap, but
by splendidly normal development.
in 1856 he went to Chicago. From
then until 1888 he was comparatively
unknown in a national sense, yet a
glance at his life during those years
shows his steady climb upward His
was indeed the true brilliance that il
Iumines. rather than dazzles.
His death makes it almost certain
that Gov Hughes Will be the next
chief Justice Who win succeed him
to make the court complete is as yet
scarcely surmised. Within less than
two years President Taft has been cal
led upon to name three justices-an
unusual opportunity and an unusual
responsibility.
The STANDARD Oil case and that OF
the tobacco trust are to be heard and
decided next autumn. More vital and
far-reaching questions Of law, from the
standpoint Of national business, never
awaited the supreme court.

for the season OF 1911.
At yesterdays meeting. at when
Thomas Lynch was unanimously re-
elected for one year. the matter or
the schedule was discussed, but no
definite action taken. The magnates,
however, had about agreed that l5i-
game schedule. conflicting as little rs
possible with that of the American
League. would be best.
The schedule committee, will, II is
said. be requested TO confer with
President Ban Johnson OF the Ameri-
can League in an effort TO see that
there will be no conflicting games on
Sunday in the west. II was also eX-
pected that some action would be
taken this afternoon, on the sugges-
ton of President Lynch, that there
be no prizes offered to batsmen.
This results over the offer of an
automobile and the miXup that re
suited between Lajoie and Cobb, OF
