'BRIEN is DISCARDED
awyer Disbarred by Supreme Court
From Practice Before Vermont
Courts

Supreme court Friday afternoon,
<efore adjournment, disbarred Ernest
s& O'Brien of Rutland, making the
abl lowing order on the records of the
8eAlrt: "On facts found, judgment
Il that said Ernest H. O'Brien is re-
oved from the office of attorney-at-
5EN and from the Office of solicitor
81 chancery," which means that
Brien's name will be removed from
e roll of men who can practice be-
re the courts of Vermont.
j. Ward Carver, as attorney for
Brien, appeared in the court in the
fternoon. Upon the court conven-
zIg, Mr.. Carver asked permission of
De court to be allowed to have his
hme entered as attorney of record
the case. 1t appears that while
+. Carver had been assisting in the
hse, he has not been an attorney of
pcord at all. The court granted his
pplication and allowed him to be-
pine one of the attorneys of record,
Fter which Mr.. Carver retired with
. ut further reference to the matter.
4 he court then directed the order
n the clerk, as stated above, and the
latter apparently terminated, for
e present at least. M. G. Leary,
is original attorney of record, did
- appear in court. He is in Mass
husetts taking dispositions in the
stman case.
& During the afternoon the court oc-
pied most of it's time in studying
atters before it, and about O'Clock
nne again to the court room, inqtir-
"a if Hale K. Darling had filed any
otion with the clerk relative to adj
tting Anna Felch Dexter to bail
he clerk replied that nothing had
81 n filed, and the court directed that
clerk notify Mr.. Darling that he
Id have five days III which to file
eh motion following the adjourn
ent of court. The court further or
Jed that the relator, Anna Felch
Ster, be and remain in the custody
George A. Tracy at Chelsea Jail
Orange county, until further or
of the court. This does not dis
Be, it was stated last evening, of
habeas corpus proceedings. 1t is
aerstood that the petitioner asks to

ION of the court on the habeas cor
Il proceedings.
After the order in the above mat
Sheriff F. H. Tracy adjourned the
Druary term of court without date.

MESSENGERS PROTEST
BAN ON ELEVATOR USE
Those in the State, War and Navy
Building Object to Arrival,
Lunch, Departure Rules.

Messengers in the State, War and
Navy building are up in arms against
an order just issued by the superin-
tendent OF the building prohibiting
them from using the elevators dur
ing three periods of the working
day.
The restricted periods are from S:45
TO 9:15 from II so to 1905, and from
APO to 4:40. The orders are designed
to give the officials and other en-
ployes of the big building exclusive
use of the elevators on their arrival
in the morning, during the lunch hour
and on their departure for home in
the afternoon.
In their plant the messengers say
they are employed during the periods
specified on government business and
that it is unfair to compel them to
climb five flights of stairs to accom-
modate other employees who are COM
ing in or going out on private bust
ness.
They represent also that it was not
deemed necessary to enforce such
rules during the progress of the war,
when the business of the three de-
partments was much greater and the
elevators much more in demand than
at present.
An appeal from the action OF the
superintendent has been taken to the
secretaries of State, War and Navy
in the hope of having the alleged dis
elimination" removed.
