WENT TO JAIL FOR COUSIN
Chivalry Gave Out When Proba-
tion Fees Came Due.

Up in Waterbury there are two cous-
ins each of whom rejoices in the name
of John 0. Pollack. Those who know
twins. for they look as like as the names
they go by. To make things more con-
fusing they live together at the same ad-
dress, No. IS Pond street The first
John is father and possesses a family
of which he is very fond The other,
not bound down by such restraining ties.
has more of rowing nature. and in his
rambles has acquired the chivalry of a
knight of old.
Not long ago John first committed a
crime 1t was not bad crime, but II
was the kind that sends man to jail
1t was then that John seconds medieval
nature asserted itself In the place of
John first, the father, he surrendered to
the police and passed the next few
weeks under lock and key. He called
himself John Smith. so that his cousin
might not learn of the generous deed in
time to thwart its execution.
So runs the story. But there is a
sequel. John first owed some proba-
ton fees which he forgot to pay. He
thought the alias John Smith sounded
well. so he adopted it. too. The officers
who came for payment arrested the
other John Smith. believing that they
were after the same man they had had
before Then the fact came out that he
had been the wrong man all the time.

Taken On Nomination of
Chief Justice.
OTHER APPOINTMENTS MADE
Van Devanter and Lamar for
Bench = Knapp, Archibald,

for Commerce Court.
From The Tribune Bureau. !

Washington. Dec. 12.-President Taft

to the Senate to-day:

Joseph Ruckcr Lamar. of Georgia.

Judge in the Appellate Court of the 1st
Illinois District. one wear.
Members of the Interstate Commerce
Commissioning. II. Meyer. Of Wisconsin,
and c. c. McChord. OF Kentucky.
Promptly on receiving his nomination
from President Taft the Senate con-
firmed the appointment OF Associate JUS
tice White as Chief Justice. In order
that there might be no delay the regu-
lar business was interrupted for the eX-
ecutive session to consider the nomina-
ton. which was faVora bly, passed on. al
though Senator Hepburn protested
against the policy Of promoting as
sociate justice to the chief justiceship.
! The promptness with which the Senate
acted was due to the fact that Justice
White was formerly q member OF that
body. and such courtesy is always eX-
tended to former Senators. The Senate
at the same time confirmed the appoint
ment of Fred ". Lehmann of St. Louis.
: Solicitor General.
Despite the desire of the Senate to
show unusual courtesy TO the newly ap-
pointed Chief Justice, slight Irregular
ity came very near holding up the con-
f1rmation. President Taft. in his COM
munication to the Senate, had made JUS
tice Whites nomination read ITO be
Chief Justice OF the Supreme Court
The official title is Chief Justice of the
United States The Supreme Court
occurs only in the titles of the associate
justices The Senate had passed on the
nomination before the mistake WAS dis
covered. The Department of Justice was
advised to correct the error in the COM
munication and told that the Senate
would correct its record.

Clerical Error Corrected.

mistake was also made in the case
of Joseph Rucker Lamar, of Georgia. III
whose name there was slight clerical
error. For this reason his appointment
was not referred to the Judiciary Com
mittee, but was sent back to the White
House for correction. The nominations
for the associate justiceships will follow
the usual procedure, being referred to Il
sub b-committee of the judiciary Commit
tee but that committee will hold ;pa-
cial meeting SO as to expedite their con-
firnation. 1t is expected that all the
Supreme Court nominations will be con-
firmed before the Senate adjourns for
the holidays in order that there may be
a full bench to hear the important cases
assigned for hearings in January The
nominations of the Commerce Court
Judges will take the usual course.

fusal of Judge Arthur c. Denison. of

that he would take the place only yeSter-
day. When informed by telegraph OF MS
