Senator West found objection in the
clause which designated as judges OF
the primary two democrats and one
Republican. 10 Republican, he thought,
should be permitted TO take part in

suggested the plan OF permitting each
party to designate three judges OF It's

cd upon separate primaries In The
event Of both parties holding their
primaries at the same time. he con
coded. there would be no objection TO

PLAINTIFFS IN $4,000 SUIT ARE
ORIGINATED.
Dismissal Based on Manner in Which
Money Was Received, Accord
ing to Bill Of Particulars

A surprise was sprung among the
legal fraternity and the court at
taches yesterday afternoon when At
torney John A. Howard. counsel for
Attorneys O'Brien & OBrien and
Boyce. In their suit against John o.
Schenk for $4,000 fees for defending
Mrs. Schenk In the famous poisoning
trial, appeared before Judge Hervey
and asked for an order OF dismissal.
The motion was made on behalf OF
the plaintiffs, and the case was dis
missed without prejudice TO the bring
ing of another action.
The move upon the part OF the
plaintiff was the cause OF much con-
lecture, and many wondered why such
a step was taken. in view OF the fact
that 1t was only a few days ago that
the case was continued until the next
term OF the Circuit Court upon the
motion of the defendant
Attorneys interested in the case
were seen and Mr.. Howard stated the
action was taken merely for the pur-
pose OF instituting a new suit and pur-
suing different course. ]. J. p.
OBrten was non-committal.
Attorneys for the defense were jubi-
liant over the action which they claim
is a great victory for them. They
expressed no surprise over the out
come and said that 1t was anticipated.
One OF the attorneys stated that the
recent ruling OF Judge Hervey put the
plaintiffs in a hole and they couldn't
deliver the goods md simply had to
throw up the sponge.
The Bill Of Particulars.
He further said that when the case
was recently argued Judge Hervey en-
tered an order instructing the plain
TINS to file a bill OF particulars item
ling the amount OF monies received
and the money paid out and for what
purpose. This placed the complain
ants In a peculiar position. II was
proven that Mr.. Schenk that would
end the matter. Then the order com
PEELED tnem to state for what purpose
money was paid out and such a state
ment might have been prejudiciaI TO
their case.
Judge Hervey placed the burden OF
proof upon the plaintiff in his ruling
in the case. when ne stated that II
was not necessary 20 prove the woman
guilty OF the poisoning charge bur II
was only necessary 10 prove that the
police we're Justified In placing her
under arrest 10 prevent her from
pledging her husbands credit This
