MONEY AND BUSINESS.

The speculative stock market during

broadened To n degree not shown be-
fore this season. The early part Of
the week was "A period OF depression

loss of money by the New York banks

OF price movements, and stocks showed
daily gains In an active market, with

COURT OF APPEALS JUDGES.

AS the Republicans hold their stat"
convention week In advance Of the
Democrats. the duty falls on them this
year, as it did two years ago, to take
the initiative in dealing with the two
Court Of Appeals vacancies which are
10 he filed at the November election.
AS both Of the retiring judges have
be selected The question arises
whether a partisan contest IS To be
avoided by each party putting up one
unimpeachable candidate or each party
will seek 70 grab both positions
Ii happens that Judge Nann and
Judge Haight, who retire, are both
Republicans, but happily the Repub-
lican party has heretofore shown no
disposition 10 make such situation
an obstacle to bipartisan action. Two
years ago il was necessary to choose
successors to two Republicans, Judge
Vann. whose term expired, and Judge
Edward 7. Bartlett, who died, and the
Republicans. In state convention
dominated by Mr.. Roosevelt, renoml-
mated Judge Vann and offered the
other place 20 Democrat. II the two
Supreme Court justices sitting IN the
Court Of Appeals were not both He
publicans an easy solution Of the prob
lem would doubtless be found az when
Judges Cullen and Werner were elect
ed in 1901 As it is. probably no bet
Ter course is open than To follow the
nrecedent set BY Mr.. Roosevelt AZ the
last state cOnvention-name one Ike

committee with power 10 lndorse Il

names Democrat whose character
and ability justify Republican support
This plan has been urged upon Doih
narties hv the state Bar Association,
the Association OF the Bar Of the CITY
Of New York and by twenty-eleht
other city and county associations. 1t
| Is obviously In harmony with the pest
| sentiment Of all who are familiar with
the work OF the court. Some poilu-
clans in both parties are opposed to the
plan. but they should not be allowed

sudden discovery that bipartisan noIni'
nations are wrong entitled to weight
He himself two years ago set the eX-
annie which the bar associations are
asking the parties to follow.
