Call on Chief Justice.

AT the clerks Office an appointment was
made by Mr. Miller to lay the matter
before Chief Justice White at his resi-
dence at once. 1t was decided to take the
entire record of the habeas corpus pro-
ceedings to the Chief Justice and to delay
the formal docketing of the case until
after the application for delay in the trial
had been presented The intention of
counsel for the packers was to notify
Attorney General Wickersham of the in
tended application to the Chief Justice.
When 1t was learned. however, that the
practice did not call for this at the first
application for such a stay it was decided
to go before the Chief Justice without
further ceremony.
While Mr.. Miller was communicating
with the Chief Justice Mr. Mayer was
drawing up the order staying the pro-
Justice would sign.
The Chief Justice took the position that
although the Supreme Court is now in
recess, until a week from next Monday, it
was In fact sitting, and that any appli-
cation of the nature presented should be
to the whole court
Acting upon the indication of the Chief
Justice, the attorneys filed with the clerk
of the court motion for stay, so that
the matter is now officially pending be-
fore that body.
Now in Judge Carpenters Hands.
The effect of the determination of the
Chief Justice not to grant stay at this
time upon the trial proceedings against
the packers In Chicago is to vest in the
discretion of District Judge Carpenter the
-qHestion whether not the trial Of the
packers shall begin before the Supreme
Court acts on the application for stay.
This is the view here today of able law
yers. AT the same time it is admitted
that new complication has entered into
an already complicated situation and.
should the Supreme Court finally grant
the stay, an embarrassing situation might
ensue should the lower court proceed with
the trial at once.
turn to Chicago this afternoon on the
first train. They indicated that efforts
will be made to have Judge Carpenter OF
the United States district court at Chi
cagO, before whom the indicted packers
have been summoned for trial Monday, to
grant a further poStponement until the
Supreme Court passes on the application
for stay.
Trial Monday Expected by U. S.
CHICAGO, November 23.-United States
District Attorney James II. Wilkerson,
when informed Of Chief Justice Whites
decision, said:
II cannot comment on the matter as l
am not fully informed of the details in re-
lation to the order. However, l am in
clined to think the trial of the packers in
Judge Carpenters court will go ahead
On Monday.
Counsel for the government expected to-
day to complete final details for the be-
ginning of the case Monday.

Says He Solicited Business.

1t is also alleged in the petition that
since the said George j. S. Hunnicutt has
been authorized to celebrate marriages he
has by his agents. commonly called
'cappers,' intercepted parties on their
way to the clerks Office to obtain mar
riage licenses. and solicited of such
parties intending to become married the
privilege of performing the ceremony.
The allegation is made that he pays a
portion Of his fee received for perform
ing the ceremony to the agent or cap
per- who induces the parties to allow
Hunnicutt to celebrate the marriage.
The petition was today presented 20
the court by Assistant United States At
torney Hawken, and Justice Barnard
issued rule against Hunnicutt requir-
ing him to show cause December I why
the authority he has to solemniZe mar
riages should not be revoked.
The question of the right of Hunnicutt
to have the authority of the court to
solemnize marriage was raised by COM
mttee of ministers who complained to
Chief Justice Clabaugh of the alleged
Gaping system. The court referred
the clergymen to United States Attorney
Wilson, and the latter designated Mr..
Hawken to investigate the organization
of the church of which Hunnicutt claimed
to be pastor, and also to make inquiry
into the alleged Gaping" system.
