royal palaces IL distributed by the Cour
CiTeuL0T. There IL an official reporter
called the court newsman who gets ur
the Circular every day and distributes I,
70 the London and provincial newspapers
and press associations.
The newspapers have to paw for the
Court Circular and il Is believed the court
year from his Office He has to be- very
careful in preparing his copy. and he
gets into hot water whenever a name Is
misspelled or a title misplaced. The late
King Edward was wont to Use strong
language whenever he discovered a blum
der in the Court Circular. especially IL the
names OF any OF his friends happened "a
be missoelled.
weekly newspaper says OF the origin
OF the Court Circular that like so many
other useful institutions the Court CIR
cuIdr arose out OF an abuse. For during
the days when George ". was Prince,
Regent 80 much gossip and scandal con-
corning the royal family crept into the
press that the Prince was driven to appeal
10 bis friend Sir Richard Birnis To find
some one who would draw up day by dav
an authentic. digniied and discreet
epitoIne Of the doings OF the court and
send n to the press.
In tho light OF modern journalism IL
~ particularly interesting to note that
Sir Richard Birnie's choice for tine first
editor Of the Court Circular fell upon AN

mer attorney general Of Porto Rico,
regarding his Interview with Attorney
General Wickersham 10 whom he went
at the instance or CLAWS TO ask him
TO review the Alaskan coal cases and
10 have him pass on them. Mr.. Bran
deis read at length from Mr. Hoyt's
statement
Mr.. BalliDger said something about
that man Hoyt having exaggerated
the circumstances of that interview. :"
''Why do you say. That man Hoyt7"

ground for his statement before the

You mean 10 say that Mr. Hoyt
made an untruthful statement to the

think he added color TO the circum-
stances of his meeting with the attor
ney general
When Mr. Brandeis suggested that
the secretary was going little far In
making such statement inasmuch
as he WAS not present at the interview
and had no means Of knowing just
what took place, Mr. Balllnger modl-
fed his statement somewhat but re-
iterated his belief that Mr.. Hoyt's tes-
umony was exaggerated,
Mr.. Brandeie said he would like to
have Attorney General Wickersham
called as a witness to tell just what
happened. Attorney Vertrees said he
had no objection and chairman Mel
son said suhpoenac for the head OF
the department OF justice probably
would be issued
