BY United Press eLased Wire.
SEATTLE, July 13.-That
Judge HanfOrd's drinking
was SO public and continual
that many bartenders knew
just exactly how to mix a
drink to suit his particular
taste, was the testimony be-
fore the congressional in
vestigation committee prob
ing the Impeachment charges
against Judge Hanford In Sc
attic.
Geo. M. Jacobs, a real es-
tate dealer, knew so much
about Hanford's drinking
that he bet a friend he could
go to any of nine saloons and
ask for a "Hanford cocktail"
and get a dry Martini with
am onion in it, or that il he
asked for Hanford's whisky
he would be served with
Monogram. The friend
took the bet, but paid

well as the habit of dosing on
cars and APPARENTLY doing on the
bench, were only peculiarities,
but that upon all occasions Han
ford's mentality was alert.
Frequently the Judge relaxes
his muscles when he walks SO
that he gives the appearance 10
strangers of being under some In
fluence, perhaps" said Gorham.
Gorham also said that he no.
ticed that Judge Hanford, during
the present proceeding, gave the
appearance of relaxation. Nc
Coy said that he had been watch

In answer to Representative
Mccoy, Baxter testified that he
had no profession, that he Is not
a lawyer, and that he has had
seven receiverships from Judge
Hanford in the past four or five
years.
Baxter could give the exact
dates and detailed facts in con-
nection with the receiverships
which he held, and was excused to
prepare the data by next Tuesday
or Wednesday. Kerr was ap-
e--snted receiver for the packing
companies by Judge Hanford,
March, 1908. In that connection,
Judge Hanford Is charged with al
lowing Kerr, as receiver and the
firm of Kerr & McCord, as at
torneys for the receiver, the ex-
cessive fee OF $4,000.
Kerr, 1t developed, was attor-
hey for the two companies up to
the time of their failure.
Kerr's examination was con-
tinued this afternoon.
The Seattle Bar association In
a meeting attended by only rs
lawyers, including Richard A.
Ballinger, his banker, Alfred Bak-
er, and every railroad attorney
in Seattle, last night by a divided
vote passed a resolution of en-
dorsement of Judge Hanford. At
the same time the association os-
tensibly complied with the re-
quest of Chairman Graham to ap-
point a committee of lawyers TO
assist the Investigators in getting
material evidence. The Bar as
sociation appointed the three law
yers who are now defending
Judge Hanford as its committee.
A letter written by Judge Han
ford was yesterday adm itted into
the record as an exhibit, showing
that the Judge was so biased
against the democratic party In
1896 that he made the general
announcement that he would not
>''appoint any man as United
States commiss iOner unless he
knew that he was not a supporter
of the Chicago platform of 1896
of the democratic party or of any
of its candidates."
Rep. Mccoy asked William H.
Gorham, ,ex-president of the Seat
the Bar association, witness for
the defense, whether that letter
expressed proper judicial attitude,
and Gorham was forced to admit
that he would not have written
1t.
'.:'If the attitude expressed IN
that letter." said Mccoy, Should
be followed, more than 100000
American citizens would be dis
qualified in holding any public

DECISION IN INDIAN LAND CASE.
Reimposing Of Restrictions Held to be
Constitutional.

Muskogee, Okla, Nov. 2.-Judge
Ralph E. Campbell of the United
States court handed down an opinion
today, in which he held that the act
of congress of April 26, 1906, provid
ing for the reimposing of restrictions
on certain Indian lands, was consti-
tutional. This applies particularly
to lands inherited by parents.
The constitutionality of the act was
raised in the 10000 land suits pend
ing in the court here, and the opin
ion is supplemental to one rendered
by Judge Campbell on Aug. IA last.
The court holds that congress
alone has the power to increase or
decrease the scope of the restrictions
placed on Indian lands and the secre-
tary of the interior could not declare
alienable or permit the sale of land
on which restrictions had been placed
by congress.
