NEW RULES IN FORCE
Designed to Expedite Business of the
Supreme Court.

Washington, Jan. Lawyers prac-
ticing before the supreme court of
United States will be forced hereafter
to give helping hand to the court S
movement to facilitate business. Ac-
cording to the new court rules, which
went into effect today, attorneys for
the plaintiff before the supreme court
must file their briefs three weeks be-
fore case is to be called for oral
argument. The defendant attorneys
must file their brief one week before
the arguments are made.
In all cases, the clerk of the court
is instructed to receive no briefs
where counsel have not served copies
on opposing counsel. The latter pro
vision was designed to put an end to
counsel appearing before the court
unprepared to answer arguments on
the opposing side and delaying the
court by supplemental briefs, dealing
with the opposing argument. The
court has announced its determination
to receive no briefs after a case has
been argued orally
The new rules will not be enforced
rigidly at once As yet printed cop
les of the rules are not available and
time will be given to the bar to ac-
quaint itself with the new require

FAILS AT SUICIDE
Bert BowIus, sued for Divorce, Seeks
Wife and Takes ChIoroform.

When Bert Bowlus read in the State
Journal Saturday night that his wife
had filed suit for a divorce, he walked
hurriedly to the home of A. B. Winant
1905 East Eighth avenue, where he took
a quantity of chloroform in an effort
to end his life. His attempt to commit
suicide occurred in the presence of Mrs.
Bowlus and her parents.
Mrs Bowlus fled suit for a divorce
Saturday in the Shawnee county dis
trict court. She charged chat her hus-
band failed to support her and that she
was compelled to earn her own living.
In her petition she asked the court to
restore her maiden name, Cora Winant.
Since the fling of the suit the wife
had lived with her parents on East
Eighth avenue. Bowlus lived with his
mother on Jefferson street. Saturday
night he read of the petition for di-
worse. He then went to the home Of
his father-in-law, where he attempted
to commit suicide. The prompt inter
ference of Winant probably saved the
mans life. When BoWlus was. restored
TO consciousness, he was taken to his
mothers home.

GOES OUT OF BUSINESS
United States Circuit Court Passes
Away With Old Year.

The western division of the United
States circuit court, formally went out
of business today and the affairs OF
the office were transferred to the office
of the United States district court:
George Sharitt, the veteran clerk of
the circuit court stepped from Office
this morning and his work ended with
the obolition OF the court under the
recent act of congress.
All of the records from the circuit
court will be remove to the district
court and in the future all cases will
be handled through the Office Of Mort
Albaugh. district clerk. There was no
Formally surrounding the closing Of
the circuit court. Dockets and records
were removed to Albaugh's office and
arrangements made for the handling of
all federal court business in the one
division.
Miss Nellie CIough. for several years
an assistant under Mr.. Sharitt, will go
to Albaugh's Office, where she will as

WAS A BAD YEAR

LAMBS WERE SCARCE
They Refused to Come in and
Be Sheared.
No Enthusiasm Displayed When
Year 1911 Ended.
LAMBS WERE SCARCE

New York, Jan. 1.-Wall street will
begin the new year with the wish that
II may be a more prosperous one than
was 1911. When bushes is resumed
tomorrow in the financial world after
the holiday, brokers will greet each
other with Better luck this year y
rather than the usual Happy New
I ear. The last twelve months has
seen hard times in Wall street.
Business was poor most of last year,
except for a few of the large houses
a broker who has been in Wall street
Tor twenfy-one years said that last
year was the dullest he ever had ex-
per1enced- Some brokers were forced
to quit the street to earn a living
One such former broker is selling
automobiles Another is New York
representative of a Southern cotton
concern Trading in stocks fell far
below that of 1910, itself not a good
year. Not only on the stock exchange,
but other exchanges and in the curb
market the depression was felt. All
through the year the public refused
to buy stocks. There was active spec
ulation at times among Wall street
traders, but there was no general
participation by the public. 1t was
this which was felt most keenly.
Some brokerage houses were COM
PEELED to reduce their expenses large
" Employees were discharged. pri-
Tate telegraph wires were discontinued
and expenses were curtailed wherever
possible. A few Of the larger houses
with the best connections were able to
do large business but for the major
lily conditions were unfavorabIe. The
years poor business conditions were
generally regarded as responsible for
the slump in trading.
When Wall street shut up shop for
1911, with the ringing of the gong on
the stock exchange at noon Saturday.
q feeble cheer was given by the brok-
ers on the floor. That was the only
tribute to the passing of the year. and
in falling to observe the day with
hilarious celebration a tradition of
many years standing was shattered.
1t is customary to celebrate the turn
of the year by decorating the exchange
with evergreens and holly, and by
bringing in a band. The younger
members are expected to make
noise. But the old year ended in such
deep gloom that nothing of the kind
was attempted.
On the consolidated stock exchange
or Little Board as it is known there
was a Christmas celebration and the
produce exchange provided a vaude-
vile entertainment and a square meal
for some of the city's poor children.
