Futility Of Expensive Liti-

The gradual falling away OF court

the past few years and especially
lately has been the cause of comment
This Is admitted to be true by lawyers
who say clients are being made to see
the futility Of expensive litigation and

troversies In the law office.
With the exception Of divorce cases
there has been distinct decline in

filing Of q small per cent OF these
are alienation Of affection suits which
never reach the entry docket. In the
past year. ten or fifteen suits of that
nature are known to have been settled
in the offices of attorneys.
In regard to litigation .over money
matters, lawyers say the time they
would be required. to consume in court
IN such cases is too valuable to bring
the complaints there II there is any
other solution. Big law firms and the
leading lawyers of the county recon-
mend compromise in every case pos

At one time Wayne county had prob
ably the livliest court scenes of any
county Of the state. There was good
proportion of criminal business which
does not exist now and civil suits of
all kinds kept the judges busy. Pro-
bate business OF which there is little
now, once constituted a large part of
the court matters.
One Judge now has charge of the
probate. juvenile, civil, and criminal
court including the business which
comes under the court of domestic
relations In some states. There were
formerly three courts in the county
which now constitute the circuit court.

sassination of the heir to the Austrian
throne, which crime Austria laid at
Servia's door. The aftermath of this
crime was the serving of the Austrian
ultimatum on Servia, which Seryia
could not yield to.
Gets German Sanction.
Mr.. Dennis said that the German
white papers" clearly set forth the
fact that Germany sanctioned the &C.
ton taken by her ally, Austria, al
though Germany realized that the en-
forcement of Austrian demands on
Servia would undoubtedly drag Russia
into the dispute.
At this time England, he said, be-
gan to strain every effort to have the
dispute settled by peaceful methods.
England first suggested that the ques-
ton be referred to four powers not
directly interested. Both Austrian and
Germany evaded this proposal. 1t was
then suggested that the question be
referred to England and Italy for set
Element and this was rejected.
Then England, in a last effort, made
powerful representations to Russia and
Austria to have them settle the dis
pute between themselves through di-
plomatic channels. To this proposal
Russia agreed first, then Austria gave
her consent. But while these negoti-
atoms were in progress Russia, Aus
tria and Germany were steadily mo-
bilizing. Mr. Dennis said that just at
the time when it appeared as though
Russian and Austria would arbitrate
their differences, Germany issued her
ultimatum to Russia to cease mobiliza
ton within twelve hours. This de.
mand Russia refused, and the war
began.
Hopes for Disarmament.
Germany, which could mobilize its
forces in a week, had distinct ad
vantage over Russia, which requires
much longer time to mobilize hel
forces," Mr. Dennis said. Behind Ger
many's uItimatum was the fear that II
too much time was consumed in dis
putting this Austro-Servian question
Russia would be able completely to
mobilize her army, in which event
Germany would be robbed of all hel
advantages of instant mobilization
the advantage Of being able to strike
first. @
