Ask Judge TO Step Aside
In Trial OF Bridge Suit

situation entirely unique In the
Federal Cort of the Northern West
Virginia district since the oecupan
cy OF the bench by Judge Aston G
Dayton was presented To the court
yesterday afternoon. when n petit
ton. or affidavit, was submitted 10
Judge Dayton, in which 1t was asked
that he step aside In the trial of the
suit of the Pennsylvania steel Com
pany against the Washington & Der
kelley Bridge Company and permit
another Judge to sit In the ease In
his stead
The petition was submitted by the
attorneys for the bridge company
and declared that II was the belief
of the defendant company that II
could not secure a fair and impartial
trial before Judge Dayton, on nc.
count OF his alleged biased and pre-.
JUDGED attitude against the bridge
company.
This being question entirely new
to Judge Dayton. he heard extended
arguments on the point raised, both
sides giving their views at length.
AT the end of the argument, Judge
Dayton announced that the prescnta-
ton Of the petition, or affidavit, by
the defendant company raised the
question whether such action did
not automatically end Judge Day
tons jurisdiction in the matter, and
operate to make II necessary that
the case come before another judge,
or whether Judge Dayton would be
compelled to decide, himself, as to
whether or not he should step aside
in. favor of some other Judge
In order that this point might be
fully threshed out, Judge Dayton an
nounced that he would ask counsel
for both sides to submit briefs upon
the question raised by the petition.
These briefs will be Immediately
prepared. and the matter will be
taken under advisement by the court
