and Dissenting Opinions.

How the Justices Prepare Decisions
and Dissenting Opinions.
On Saturday evening each justice re-
ceives from the chief justice an en-
velope containing the names of the
cases the chief justice has decided to
allow the justice 10 write the opinions
on, and the chief justice also notifies
the justices of the hour Of the confer
ence on Monday morning. The confer
ences are usually held in the confer
ence room under locked doors. The
chief justice presides, and cases are
taken up or postponed according to the
wishes of the justices or their readi-
ness to consider them. Each justice
is furnished with lock book, in which
he may enter the stails of case, the
record Of the vote on conference and
the final disposition. On a case be-
ing assigned by the chief justice to
justice to write the opinion of the
court the opinion when written must
be agreeable to the justices. If not
the dissatisfied justice will promptly
write a dissenting opinion. In some
instances four Of the justices have
each written a dissenting opinion, but
the usual custom is for one to write
1t and announce that the others con-
cur.
Before a case is reached for argu-
ment the justices familiarize them
selves with its records and briefs. and
when one is directed to write the opin-
ion he makes Il study of the case. long
or short as its gravity demands. This
may take n few Days or months. The

the opinion. locks them in a safe. and
after the opinion is set up he adds
them to it, takes two proofs and for
wards them under lock and key to the
Justice. 1t is again read and revised
and sometimes completely altered and

the latter and nine revises sent to the
justice.

700 MEN
JOIN STRIKE
IFrom a SIAN correspondent. !

From stan Correspondent
PERTH AMBOY, June 1S.-Believ-
ing that strikers have in their pos
session two hundred pounds of dyna-
mite, and fearing an attack will be
made on the several large plants
affected at any time, armed deputies
are patroling the streets In the strike
zone. They are under orders to shoot
at the first sign of trouble.
More than 700 employees of the De-
timing Company and terra Gotta
works, in Woodbridge, went on strike
today in sympathy with the men out.
This increases the ranks of the strik-
ers to more than 1000, not including
the several hundred who returned to
work in the American Smelling and
Refining Company.
1t Is feared that there will be vio-
lence worse than any thac has yet
taken place. Adjutant- General Sad
Ter has returned to this city. He has
been sent here by the Governor. This
is taken as an ominous sign. 1t was
believed that when the adjutant-gen-
eral left here Friday afternoon the
backbone of the strike was broken.
His return, it is said, means that
fresh trouble is brewing.
When the men in Woodbridge
walked out the superintendents called
them together in front of the fac
tories The men were asked what
their demands were. No reply was
given.
I'VE are going out in sympathy
with the men in Perth Amboy,' was
all they would say
Renewed violence in the strike
seems certain today. The return of
Adjutant- General Sadler and the ON
ipous quietness of the strikers during
the last two days have given a sinis-
ter aspect to the situation.
General Sadler, who left here Sun
day confident that 1t would be un-
to call out the militia. has
been called hack by the Governor
when he learned that the strikers of
the American Smelling and Refining
Company had refused to return. des-
pite the firms offer of an increase of
lh cents an hour.
Although a few men returned to
work at that plant today, the strikers
are more bitter than ever. The
armed guards patrolling the factory
district are prepared for the outbreak
Of rioting at any time.
The restraint which the strikers
have been showing is considered 40
peculiar by the authorities that they
are afraid a storm is brewing In some
unexpected quarter.
No demonstration was made even
when the funerals Of Stephen Preho-
Ia and Stephen Dudock, who we're
filled in Fridays riots, took place.

medley of errors over his identity

county physician, Morguekeeper Null
lin and Undertaken Mooney.
Mooney has the body in his estap-

Joseph Keogh. But he does not

though the report at headquarters
was changed from 'Daly" To
"Keogh." Every attempt to straigh-
ten out the tangle has made 1t more
absurd, despite its tragedy.

bathing his feet. If he e3cried out, no
one in the house heard him. Con-
nelly was passing the open door OF
Daly's room and saw the body, up
