Standard Stocks in Demand.

The standard stocks. especially the
eoalers and the Hartman issues, were
in better demand, and prices advanced
generally. Some issues developed pro-
nounced strength, apparently as result
of covering of short contracts The weak
spot in the list was the tobacco group
but the continued decline in these stocks
was of no effect upon the general mar
ket. ana various specialties advanced
easily.
Increased January gross earnings of
number of railroads helped to stimulate
the market. The coal stocks became
buoyant, and their strength diffused
strong tone throughout the entire mar
ket. Central Railroad of New Jersey,
which was :s35 bid at the close yester-
day. was in scant supply, and although
bids were raised steadily there were no

Washington, June -19.-(Special.)-
The Committee on Judiciary of the
House of Representative has decided
that the subcommittee to Investigate
the charges made by Representative
Berger against Federal Judge Han
ford shall be composed of Representa-
tives Graham, of Illinois; Mccoy, of
New Jersey, and Higgins, of Conn.
The first two are Democrats and Hig-
gins is a Republican. Graham, who
is slated for the Craftsmanship of the
subcommittee, conducted the recent
investigation of the Controller Bay
scandal.
The affidavit filed by Attorney John
H. Perry, of Seattle, with the Com
mittee on Judiciary, is said to be the
most sensational that has ever been
presented in any impeachment pro-
ceedings before Congress. In addi-
tion to the charges Of business i'm
prophecies and Legitimate relations
with corporate interests, Hanford is
accused by Perry Of being libertine
and drunkard.. Perry says:

Judge Moral And
Judicial Pervert

"Cornelius H. Hanford has on many
and divers nights remained out in
various SALOONS and bar room in Seat
tie indulging in drunkenness and i'm
moral dissipation to such late hours
after midnight that he rendered him
self unfit morally, mentally and ply
sically to perform his judicial duties
the following day; that he is tyranni-
cal, impatient, intolerant, unfair and
unjust towards many clients and at
torneys who have business before him.
"He is now and for many years last
past has been a grossly immoral and
dissolute man; that he is libertine. f"
Perry goes into detail as to Judge
Hanford's indulgenecs and recites re-
lation with woman, who for legal
purposes is named as Jane Doe. These
details, of course, are unprintabIe IN
der the federal postal laws.
In one of the specifications made
out against Hanford, Perry shows that
this Judge treated workingmen unjust
iy and contemptuously. He cites the
case of Eli Melovich, workingman
who brought suit against the Stone
Webster Engineering company, on &C
count of the loss of an arm while
working about the machinery of this
company. Melovich had won judg-
ment of $12,262, but firm of attor-
neys working in harmony with Han
ford moxed to set aside the judgment,
and during the argument Judge Han
ford said:
81 would not hesitate to grant the
non-suit in this case were it not for
the number of times this court has
been reversed by the Court of Ap-
peals."
Another time during the trial Han
ford said:
"He (Melovich, the workingman) }.
was able bodied and lost his arm it
is true, but in keeping with other
causes, he got five times as much as
he should, and the verdict is unjust"
Needless to add Judge Hanford
granted this company a new trial, ex-
planning the use Of the word "any"
by himself in a previous trial as a
reason, Hanford said: "The fact that
from WEAKNESS my mind was not as
acute as it should have been at the
time, and although no exceptions were
Wheeling majority. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1907-192?, 1912-06-27

taken at the time, It is matter thai
appeals to my discretion and justice
requires the granting of new trial"
A photograph of Melovich> with his
arm ground off at the shoulder has
been furnished to the committee.
In one of the concluding paragraphs,
Perry characterizes Hanford as "a
moral bankrupt by night and judi
cial pervert by day" Evidence Of this
nature, with a long list of witnesses,
are at the disposal of the judiciary
Committee.
