SUPREME COURT WORK.
How the Justices Prepare Decisions
and Dissenting Opinions.

How the justices Prepare Decisions
snd Dissenting Opinions.
On Saturday evening each Justice re.
ceives from the chief Justice an en-.
velope containing the names Of the
cases the chief Justice has decided to
allow the justice to write the opinions
on. and the chief Justice also notifies
the justices Of the hour of the confer.
ence on Monday morning The confer.
ences are usually held In the confer.
ence room under locked doors. The
chief justice presides. and cases are
taken up or postponed according to the
wishes Of the justices or their readi
ness to consider them. Each justice
Is furnished with lock book. in which
he may enter the details Of case. the
record of the vote on conference and
the final disposition. On a case be-
ing assigned by the chief Justice to
Justice to write the opinion Of the
court the opinion when written must
be agreeable to the justices. If not
the dissatisfied justice will promptly
write a dissenting opinion. In some
instances four of the justices have
each written dissenting opinion. but
the usual custom is for one to write
1t and announce that the others con-
cur.
Before a case is reached for argu-
ment the justices familiarize them
selves with its records and briefs. and
when one is directed to write the opin-
ion he makes study of the case. long
or short, as its gravity demands. This
may take a few days or months. The
opinion is dictated. and after being
typewriter it Is corrected. boiled
down and revised: another copy is then
made. further revised and sent to the
printer. In order that the CON-
positors who set the type may not
know the decision of the case the
foreman sets up the last few lines of
the opinion. locks them in safe. and
after the opinion is set up he adds
them to 1t. takes two proofs and for
wards them under lock and key to the
justice. 1t is again read and revised
and sometimes completely altered and
returned to the printer. corrected by
the latter and nine revises sent to the
Justice.
If the opinion is now satisfactory to
the justice copy is mailed to each
member of the court. These are re-
turned to the justice with the nota-
tions of the justices. and the opinion is
revised or changed. If need be. to con-
form to their views. If there be
dissenting opinion the justice writing
the majority opinion holds 1t until the
dissent Is completed.
Then on some Monday. the court be-
ing in session, the justice announces
an opinion in the case. giving its num-
Der and title. and then proceeds to
read 1t at length to the dozen people
who may be present If there be a
dissenting opinion the justice writing
the dissent reads it and announces the
names of the justices who concur with
him. Afterward the official reporter
of the court sends verified copy of
the opinion to the publishers of the
United States supreme court reports.
and the case finally becomes one Of
thousands in the law libraries to be
read and reread If of moment or to be
forgotten If mere detail.-Independent

AN UNREAD REPORT.
The Methods Of Barney sarnate In HE
Minjna Ventures.

s 4
Barney Barnato before the tragic
termination Of his career was widely
known because of his large fortune
won in mining ventures. His rapid
accumulation of wealth was popularly
attributed to luck. but luck Of the per.
sistent variety usually rests upon a
more solid basis than mere chance.
An insight to Barnato's methods is af-
forded by an incident recently related
by A. A. Blow. an American engineer
once in Barnato's employ. After an
exhaustive examination Of a mine
whose purchase was under considera-
tion Blow prepared an elaborate and
voluminous report. It was accompa-
MED by maps and selections and was
piece Of work Of which the engineer
felt that he could be Justly proud.
When It was handed to Barnato to
read. however. the latter laid it aside
unopened.
"Tell me about It." he said.
Blow proceeded to make an oral re-
port.
Barnato dozed. Finally he exclaim-
ed:
81 employed you because I think you
know something about this business.
and I do not. Now. I do not want to
hear all Of this scientific rot about this
mine. All want you to tell me is
whether 1t is good business?'
Blow told him "No."
''Then that settles it." said Barnato.
"You are willing to accept the respon-
sibility Of turning down this property
at the price offered?"
EYES," was Blows reply. ''but !
want you to examine the reports. maps.
assays. plans, etc.. and see the rea.
sons have for my conclusions"
"Why should do this?' Barnato in.
quired. "You tell me that 1t is not
good business And as I cannot un.
derstand your report why should ]
waste my time on anything that is not
good business ?"-Moody's Magazine.
