 of His Guilt.

 from further practice by Judge R. " Jennings, as the result of charge; which were filed against Young re gently, and on which hearings have been held during the greater part o last week.
 In making the order this morn ing, Judge Jennings reviewed the tes timony at length. He said: Hi: whole manner on the witness stan( was indicative of guilt His review ing at great length minor details, his putting up men of straw and ther knocking them down himself were indications that he was trying tC lead the mind of the Court and his hearers from the main points of the charges against him.
 "I owe it to myself, after having been imposed on in the way l have owe it to the community and to the other members of the bar that the profession of law, which is an hon orable profession, be not prostituted in this manner.
 "I shall therefore make an order disbaring MT. Young. The formal or der will be prepared and signed at Ketchikan.
 Tn his statement, reviewing the charges against MT. Young and the evidence, and giving fs5 conclusions drawn from the evidence, Judge Jennings said:
 "The first charge against MT Young were filled by Harry Again sky, and before the case was fin ished other charges were filed, name ly, that he took the money of Fan nie Miller with the understanding that he was to appear for her at her trial Instead he had important business below, and left her and re fused to return her money after he did not appear. She paid other at torneys, who appeared for her and who were engaged at the recommen dation of Mir. Young. Another charge was that he was guilty of improper conduct relative to his deal ings with John Stiff; and another was that he endeavored to tamper with government witnesses and tried to get Jacob Remmert, the witness in the Annie Jones case, out of the jurisdiction of the court. All these cases were tried at once, at the suggestion of the Court and the con sent of the counsel.
 Misconduct in Aeainsky Case
 'I think the evidence as to the Againsky matter is clear against Young It shows that Againsky was a man in durance vile and that he trusted Young as client usually trusts an attorney. He trusted Young with the balance of his funds to keep for him. acting on the sug- gestion of Young that the govern ment was making an endeayor to get his money. When Againsky asked why the government was af- ter his money, Young replied, Don't should go to Seattle and get a man named Rose, friend of Againsky, and go to McNeirs Island to make a settlement instead of doing it here before Againsky left. l can't see. think it was the intention of Young to take the money and keep it" the Court continued.
 Guilty in Miller Case
 "In the Fannie Miller case l find that he did take her money on the lo, ha ho tn T for her at her trial, It frequently happens that an attorney is unable to fulfill his obligations but in that case the least he can do is to SC cure another attorney in his place or return his clients money. Young did neither"
 Stiff Not lnsjured
 "In the Stiff matter l don't see anything very reprehensible in his conduct toward his client said tho Court "Stif agreed to pay Youns $75 for his services and Young re turned the balance of the money tt Stiff with the exception of the $2o' taken out for bail. It is true tha the receipt for this money was is sued in the name of Young, bu since he has stated on the witness stand in this Court that the none. should be returned to Stiff. tha young man is not injured as tn matter now stands.
 Tucker Told Truth
 Tn the matter of offering Mr Tucker an attorneys fee if he woul' get Jacob Remmert. the principa government witness against Anni Jones, to leave the city, l haven doubt that the statement of Nil Tucker is correct.
 This order is also made on ae count of formed disbarment in tn state of New Jersey for repreher sible practices in dealing with hi clients. The same matter was Il in the state of New York and wa 1 let 20 by default Mir Young maxim
