the auditors office, and H. A. Miller,
assistant county counsel. have devoted
considerable time to this problem and

PITNEY NOT
YET READY
TO RESIGN
From a stan Correspondent. ]


TRENTON. March 14.-Chancellor
Pitney, who was yesterday confirmed
by the United States Senate as associ-
ate justice of the United States Su-
preme Court, called on Governor Will
son today and had a chat with the
chief executive of the State, thanking
him for the interest he had taken in
his confirmation. The chancellor told
the Governor he would not Immediately
resign, as it is important that there be
no vacancy in the office of chancellor
even for day. because of the fact that
no one else may sign orders and de-
crees emanating from the Chancery
Court.
Chancellor Pitpey will leave this
afternoon for Washington, and tomor-
row morning will call upon President
Taft and thank him for his appoint
ment.
The chancellor. after calling upon
the President, will call upon Chief
Justice White to arrange for his being
sworn in. Justice Pitney expects that
he will probably be sworn in on Mon
day, although he has no specific in
formation on that point
There Is strong conviction here
that Supreme Court Justice Charles
Garrison will be named by Governor
Wilson to succeed Mahlon Pitney as
chancellor of the State.
Today Justice Minturn. OF the Su-
preme Court, representing the entire
membership of the Court o.. Errors and
Appeals except Justice Garrison. him

told him it was the earnest wish of
the court that Justice Garrison be

MURDER CASE IS
 READY FOR TRIAL
CLARENCE SGHIMANN. WIFE SLAYER WILL GO BEFORE
 u RY THIS MORNING.
Both t':e St:te snd the Defanse An. noHnca That They Sec no Reason
 fer Further Delaying Case,

Hot Springs, Oct. 24.-Clarence Schumann, self confessed slayer of his wife, Lula Schumann, will be placed Cn trial in c rcu.t court in this city next Friday morning, un- der tac intic ment for first degree murder, as returned by the present grand jury.
 Prosecuting Attorney J. B. Wood had previously indicated desire to try th.s case before :. h S tenure of office expires, and as thst expires on Novembe. i. fe is no doubt anxious that the case should be called. q can see nc reascn why theer should be fur;her delay Judge Wood said yesterday
 We will be ready to enter ini 0 the trial Of the case when it is call cd Friday said w. G. Bouic, counsel for the defense, yesterday. q have been at work on our case, and have made marked healway. Appo nted by the court rather late in the case, at firs l expected there would be a 1ostDonement necessary in justice to the accused man. hut l think now we are ready for trial
 The defense will no doubt be the condition of mind of Schumann at the time he picked up a pistol in the homo of Mir. and Mrs. Seg Hildreh and stepped out of the back door, r. ing several shots into the body of his wife. Schumann and his wife had many viccisittudes in their marital relations. and were separated. Mrs. Schamann had applied fer divorce from him, and then had withdrawn it. She had two divorced husbands living in this city now, and it is said that Schumann was her fourth hus- band.
 The history of the dead woman will be laid bare n the trial, as will the history of the accused man be barred for critical survey by the jury. Schu- mann is said to be a morphine fiend, and has history here iii connection with the use of 8. local patent med icine that will be exploited in he trial to show physical condition that prevailed such as is said to be bound to have had bearing on his mental condition at all tines.
 Whether Schumann will take the stand or not will be an important feature of interest in the trial. If he does, he will nc doubt open the story of the life he lived as the husband of Mrs. Schumann in detail, and there Will be some rather sensational q S. clos tres. according to the theory of the defense.
