thoriZed to so appear either by her or
by any one for her. He is further al
legged to have failed to advise Miss Bid
dick of her rights.
Buckley Is accused of having procured
for her the services of Hughes without
her solicitation or the solicitation of any
person authorized by her, and with also
having failed to appraise her of her
rights.
The afidavits allege that Buckley
signed Miss Biddick's bond and that
while in his Office Monday awaiting
some action by Police Court authorities
he brought a man whom she later

davit, Hughes told her that he was her

mind. but that he shook his head at
her to keep quiet.

Hughes recently came into the public
eye by his letter to the late Representa-
tive Gallivan following the latter's at
tack on Police Court Judge Gus A.

liquor case. when they brought In a
verdict of not guilty. Hughes, who was
