SUPREME COURT
MAKES new RULE
Chief Justice Mayes Will in Future
Hand Down All Court
Opinions.

Jackson, Miss, Jan. "a new rule
became effective in the Supreme
Court with the new year. Hereafter
Chief Justice Mayes will hand down
all the decisions instead of each JUS
tice and commissioner, as has been
the rule ever since the court was es-
tablished.
Each justice and commissioner in
the past has read the decisions pre-
pared by him, often requiring much
time for explanation, giving history
of the case. This part of the proceed
ing is done away with under the new
rule, which was made with the view
of expediting business.
The Supreme Court, with only Chief
Justice Mayes and Justice Smith pres
ent, handed down rulings on three mo-
tons at Mondays sitting, as follows:
Ollie Owens VS.. state, Chickasaw
county: motion for court overruled.
John T. Carter vs.. state. Monroe
county; motion to affirm overruled
and appeal dismissed for want OF
prosecution.
The court took up the criminal dock.
ct after the rulings were handed down
the case of c. W. Hyatt VS.. state, from
Newton county, being the first ar
gued.

Believed That Decisions In Trust
Cases Are at Least Year
Distant.

Washington, Jan. 3.-The Supreme
Court of the United States resumed it's
sittings today, with Chief Justice
White acting as head of the court for
the first time. The Tobacco and
Standard Oil cases are on the calen-
dar for today and one of Justice
Whites duties will be to decide which
case shall be heard first, and how
much time shall be allowed each side
for the presentation of oral argu-
ments.
Other important cases to come be-
fore the court this month are fifteen
suits attacking the validity of the cor
poration tax law, these to follow the
tobacco and oil cases, and the case of
Samuel Gompers, president, and other
officers of the American Federation
of Labor, in connection with the boy
colt of the Bucks Stove and Range

hung from the trolley wire in lace
like sheet. A second car came up
and the double-header, after several
attempts, made the grade slowly

reaching the city on early trains. The
car tops were covered with sleet and
snow and long-ingered icicles hung
from the roofs.
Hardest For Years.
"Old settlers" and there were a few
of them on Hattiesburg' streets dur
ing the day, agreed that the combina-
ton of cold wind, blowing 20 miles
on hour. with the mercury at "a and
ice to be seen on all sides, was a
record-breaker.
While it had moderated at noon, the
weather report predicts another freeze
up tonight. OF course, the coal man
and the plumber are busy. while the
ice man is unusually prompt today in
making deliveries.
In the railroad yards the raw cold
wind worked hardship on the men
exposed to the weather. Where 1t was
possible, much work was put off until
the weather moderates.
Workmen on the public building
called halt and took half-day's
rest.
Fortunately for the firemen, no
alarm was turned in during the night.

Although the Supreme Court with
its new chief and other members will
hasten decisions on the important
cases before it, as much as will be
possible to be compatible with fair
ness to all concerned, it is predicted
that a decision in the trust cases will
be at least a year in forming. 1t is
believed that the changes necessitated
in the personnel of the court by the
death of Chief Justice Fuller and the
retirement of Justice Moody will de-
lay decisions.
