Will Retire in Few Years.

The suggestion has been made. and 1t
comes from quarter which justifes my
telegraphing 1t, that the President may
deem 1t advisable to name Mr. Justice
Harlan as Chief Justice until his retire
ment under the age limit, which Is only
a few years of. 1t is said that no law
yer would question the eminent propriety
of this selection. Nothing but more
or less Intangible precedent stands in the
way-the fact that no Justice on the bench
ever has been promoted to the chief JUS
ticeship.
+ The assignment Of Mr.. Justice Harlan
to the duties OF Chief Justice while he
is rounding out his distinguished career
would be q graceful act, 1t ts argued. and
would be hailed with general acclaim.
Moreover, on account of his wide ex-
perience; It is said that every one having
business before the court would feel much
easier than II an untried man were In the

Special From . stan Con-. Iposdsst.


NEW YORK, September IA great
deal OF interest is felt in financial circles
here over the reorganization Of the United
States Supreme Court, and especially the
selection Of Chief Justice. The court re-
assemblies October 10 for the fall term
and will begin to hand down decisions
October II.
Information received here is to the ef-
feet that none Of the big. antitrust cases
in which the financial and industrial
world is profoundly interested will come
UP for reargument before January 8. by
which time there will be a fuil bench.
Doubt is expressed whether Gov.
Hughes will be made Chief Justice. al
though rumor that ne will has been per-
sistent 1t is suggested that the fact
that Gov. Hughes has never even tried a
case before the Supreme Court. and is.
therefore, entirely unfamiliar with prece-
dents and procedure. may initiate against
his selection.
1t is pointed out that the Chief Justice.
In addition to being the balance wheal
between the eight other members OF the
court, Is required to pass individually
upon many delicate and important mo-
tions, requiring knowledge OF the pro-
cedure Of the court.

AMERICAN ONE OF STARTERS

BRIG, Switzerland. September 49,
Though the weather was unpropitious for
the bold undertaking. Mr.. Weymann. the
American, and George Chavez, the Peru
Wan, attempted the cross-Alps aeroplane
flight today. Both failed. but not until
they had given pretty exhibitions Of high
flying that promised better success in
fair weather.
During the night a stiff breeze was
blowing in the Simplon pass, and the
mountain peaks were hidden in dense
fog. There seemed little prospect that
the competition would begin today. How
ever. at daylight the wind had gone down
and though 1t was still cloudy, the in
| trepid Chavez and Weymann decided to
risk flight '.ses~ss
Cheered by Great Crowd.
They got away with encouraging cries
from an enormous crowd that was dis
appointed yesterday, and had feared that
bad weather would compel another post
ponement today.
Chavez left the starting ground-a little
Quadrilateral plateau overlooking the
Rhone valley-frst and Immediately began
to rise in sweeping spirals until he had
reached an altitude above the towering
mountain wall opposite. Then he dis
appeared over the granite shoulder that
marks the entrance to the Saline gorge.
A moment later the watchers at that
point saw the monoplane. wheel and
gradually descend, until 1t alighted on
a little grassy slope at the foot OF the
sheer cliffs. Weymann, who started a
few moments after Chavez was on his
way, remained in the air only! eight
minutes. He assembled to an altitude OF
about LOO feet, where he encountered
a battling wind. In landing at the bot
tom of the Rhine valley he bent a
wheel of his biplane.
Encountered Violent Wind.
Chavez explained that he had reached
an altitude Of about $500 feet when he
was caught in a violent wind He OBJ
pass was obscured by heavy clouds and
decided to return rather than chance
landing farther on among the rocks
He announced that he might try again
later in the day.
The other aviators who propose to
try for the cross-Alps prize are Cat
taneo and Palette. The American uses
biplane and the others monoplanes.
The terms of the competition provide
that the flight may be made any time
between today and September 26 The
start must be near this point at the
| head Of the Rhone valley and the avi-
ators must fly over the Simplon pass
and down across Lake Maggiore to Mi
