SDDONS STILL IN RACE

Nomination to NIL a vacancy on the
District Supreme bench is expected
from the White House shortly. President
Wilson hopes to consult Attorney Gen
eral McReynolds on the subject before
the latter resigns his Cabinet portfolio
to assume his duties on the United
States Supreme bench. The vacancy was
caused by the resignation Of Justice Job
Barnard.
District Commissioner Frederick L.
Siddons has been prominently mentioned
for the vacancy, despite belief that
Mr.. McReynolds would prefer to recon-
mend another. Some time ago Mr.. Sid
dons' nomination was expected within a
few days. The tendency OF the suit to

was ascribed as the cause Of the delay,
the assumption being that in the event

vacancy, the name of Representative

mentioned. Mr.. Mccoy Is a New Jersey
man of recognized legal ability. a men,
Der Of the Judiciary Committee Of the
House, and chairman of the subcommit-
tee which is hearing charges against JUS
tice Wright. 1t is believed that the At

to present the name of Mr.. Mccoy to the
President Friends OF Mr.. Mccoy who
went to the White House to urge his
cause refrained from doing so when the
President informed them that he virtu-
ally had closed his mind on the subject
An unfavorable outcome for Mr.. New
man in the pending suit might change
the status, however.
The vacancy caused by the death of
Chief Justice Clabaugh has been filled
by the nomination and confirmation OF
Representative Covington. Of Maryland.
but Mr.. Covington has not as yet as
sumed his new duties owing to important
legislation which has required his con-
tinuous service in the House. Mr. Cow
