BIG CIVIL S|OE

From a civil standpoint, the com

will be the largest in the history OF
this court, there being sixty-five cases
on the docket, and it is probable that
the court will be in session at least
week longer than usual. Some OF
these cases are very important and
involve large amounts
But the criminal docket is unusual
ly small-less than for many years.
The grand jury will be in session
and as that body invariably returns
