BILL TO RETIRE
JUSTICES OFFERED
Move Might Reshape Su.
preme Court in New Deal
Controversies.
By the Associated Press.

4y the Associated Press.
A Supreme Court justices retirement
bill, which might, conceivably, reshape
the high tribunal in the midst of the
"New Dea." law controversies, was in
troduced yesterday by Chairman Sum-
ners of the House Judiciary Com
mittee.
The Texas Democrat proposed that
O Justice who has reached the age of
eligible retirement may retire upon his
current salary, but instead of resign
ing be subject to assignment by the
Chief Justice to help out in various
circuits when needed.
II was the understanding In at least
one quarter on Capitol Hill that the
legislation would not be opposed by
President Roosevelt. Several of the
justices are eligible to step down from
the bench now.
Summers made clear the bill was not
an administration measure, although
it was understood he had informed
Mr.. Roosevelt of his intention to in
troduce the bill.
The proposed legislation would not
increase the size of the Supreme Court
because the "on-call' retired justices
could sit only in the lower circuits.

WRITES ABOUT LFFROM THE
 PHILIPPINE IS.

Marshal Thomas Gaffney is in re- ceipt of a letter from Ed L Mack, a former Nome miner and prospector, dated at Zamboanga, Mindanoa, Fil- ipinas, P. l. January 1895 where he is prospecting the rivers and creeks for gold but states that he has had about all he wants of that country and longs to get far enough ahead to enable him to get back to Alaska, which he claims is Gods country compared to the Philippin- es. MT. Mack says in his letter he had just received two issues of the Nome Daily Nugget printed since the fire of September 17th and was very glad to get them as he had not learned of the Nome fire because he had been back in the mountaia regions for several months. He wishes to be remembered to all of his old sourdough friends, and says to tell them to stick to Alaska.
 Mir. Mack concludes his letter with his latest poem entitled from "A to z" which depicts his roamings from Nome to the Philippines and is as follows. being signed by "The Lone Wolf of the Tundras":
 From A to z" I cast my lot in the P. l.; Far away from my Arctic home, And settled in old Zamboanga, Never more to roam.
 But the gods of fate were 'gainst me III fortune followed apace; For I was not in my element And woefully out of place.
