rendor him. tn tlio est itnuf ion his fi ie ids. as peculiarly qualified as the Moore. Mr. York is to In jarlge and is not above sayttu' so.

oattvo of Brooklyn, was educated ioT, and has always lived here. to about t. years ago he resided in tho Fifth ward. v. 'he re he took an active part in politics.

He now has nil home on the park slope. Mr. Vtirk studied law under a former county judgo, Troy, and was admitted to practice in 188S. has never complained and never will complain. He did want to be a Judge of the supreme court and he went about In the good old Democratic' way of asking the people to support him.

He has not yet made known whether he still cherishes the ambition or not; his friends are making him a candidate. Mr. is not unlike other men. lie may desire another chance. Whether he does or it the fact remains that he cuts quite a figure In tho consideration of candidate: and he has many frinecls who will advocate his cause lo he last.

General Almet F. Jenks has come to the front in the gossip lately. The general Is among the most accomplished lawyers of the city and otherwise one of the best read and most highly 'cultivated men. Since he left the corporation counsel's office in February, lKii. lie has built up an extensive practice, having figured in some of the largest cases which have engaged the attention of the courts.

his prospects In this relation are very bright. While the ambition for a seat on tho supreme court bench is a very laudable one the acceptance of It by some lawyers would mean a great personal sacrifice. In such a category is Mr. Whitehouse, whose professional engagements net him an income far In excess of the salary of a judge. Mr.

Whrtehouse represents professionally railroad and other corporate interests of great magnitude. He enjoys a practice surpassed by few other lawyers in this city. It will be readily seen, therefore, what an election to a judgeship would mean to him pecuniarily. Mr. White house is not seeking the nomination, hut If the party should, In its wisdom, decree that he should be a candidate, he might be Induced even at the sacrifice of income and personal convenience, to accept, feeling that It would be only his duty so to do.

Mr. White house is still a young man. being only about 40. Personally he Is extremely popular and 9'V year, with the idea that defeat Is Impossible. They regard the Judgeships as no different from any other positions.

Thev do not apparently believe that the votora weigh tho Judicial ticket any more than thev do the legislative or aidcrmanic ticket. They might receive an instructive lesson bv studying the vote for Justice Gaynor In thi very district which they seem to think alreadv secured for their party. The Gaynor election in also an object lesson for tho Dcmocrac v. The Democracy has learned much In tile past two years, not only from tin. Gaynor campaign, but also from local results, and all the Indications are that it will act wisely this year.

Every sagacious observer must "admit that without Democratic unity there can be no Democratic success, and that Democratic unity can only be attained by clean methods and the nomination of capable and upright men. This Is, perhaps, particularly tnu; in respect to tho judgeships, and Is so generallv recoguized that unless the machinists have entirely lost their heads, election dav will see a union ticket In the field. There should be no mistakes made. There Is plentv of available material from which to make selections, and the chief aim should be to so act that the approval of tho people may be regarded as almost a foregone conclusion. The supreme bench of the second department is an honor to the state, and any attempt on the part of either political organization to impair It by the addition of unfit and unworthy men will be unmistakably resented at the polls.

Because a man is successful In the practice of his profession is no reason in itself why he should be singled out for judicial distinction. So it should be the duty of each party to closely scrutinize the character of the practice of the men who may aspire, or who may he proposed for nomination, as woll as to examine' their general reputation. The fact that a lawyer has. for example, become conspicuous for his success in what are known as damage suits, is not regarded as a recommedatlon for judicial advancement. Lawers, and many laymen, know the methods upon which such a practico is sometimes built, and they know that those methods are not such as should be approved by men who are anxious to maintain the honor and dignity of bench and bar.

The same general comment may bo made in respect to the county Judgeship. This position has been long and honorably filled by Henry A. Moore, who Is about to retire. The Importance of the office cannot be overestimated. The county Judge stands between the criminal classes and the people, anil upon his interpretation and enforcement of the law THE DAILT BAOLiBi is published every after oon on the working days of the week and on SUNDAY MORNINGS.

i Soores of Candidates for the Judiciary Nominations. THE SITUATION AS ANALYZED. Three Supreme Court Justiceships, Two County Judgeships and the Sur rogaoy to Be Filled at the Corning Election Party Lines Will Probably Be Drawn A Union of Democratic Faotions Possible. Among the candidates to be voted for In this county at the coming election will bo men named for three supreme court justiceships, two county judgeships and the surrogacy. The number of.

supreme court judges in the second department, or district, of which Kings county is a part, has been Increased by three under the new constitution, and a successor to Justice Calvin E. Pratt, who retina because of age limitation, will be elect JAMES 11. BELL. ed. There is an additional county Judge to be provided, and a successor to Judge Henry A.

Moore will be chosen, so that with the office of surrogate, thero will be six judicial candidates of each party before the people. The second judicial department Is made up of the counties of Kings, Queens, Suffolk, Richmond, Westchester, Rockland, Orange, Putnam and Dutchess. Four of tho present justices are residents of Brooklyn. They are Pratt, Allen, Bartlett and Gaynor. Justice Brown lives In Orange county and Justice Dykman in Westchester county, while Justice Barnard, who is serving temporarily at circuit I and special term under assignment by the governor, is a resident of Dutch ALMET F.

JBXKB. ess county. Of course, the great bulk of the more than two thirds, is done in Kings county, and the demands upon the Justices have grown so that an Increase of the bench Is absolutely necessary. There Is a universal opinion in this county that at least two of the new judges should be selected from It, and In all probability both parties will nominate Brooklyn men for the positions. Among Democrats, tho consensus of opinion is that It might be well to nominate the third candidate from Suffolk county, which has never had a representative upon the supreme bench, and the lawyers of which are compelled to come away down to Brooklyn or Long Island City even for so small a purpose as that of having an order signed.

Candidates for tho supreme court bench THOHAB E. PEAIISAI.I. are nominated by conventions which are composed of one delegate from each assembly district of tho department. In the second department there are thirty six assembly districts, twenty one of which are in Kings county, so that this county will have a majority of six in the nominating convention. With this control, and recognizing the necessity of having the Long Island end of the district properly supplied with judicial material, there would appear to be no doubt that Kings county will take two of tho candidates, and in the case of the Democracy, favor the selection of the third from the easterly end of the island.

It has frequently been the custom for the Republicans to Indorse Democratic candidates for the bench, but those were THOMAS f. MAGXEB. mainly cases of renomination. Xow, there arc new judgeships, and the presumption is that party lines will be drawn upon them. The Republicans will probably fx? the more anxious to pursue this course because of their confidence that they can carry the county and the district this year.

The successes of 1SS3 and 1894, although attributable to other than purely partisan reas ons. have filled the Republican politicians, the men who boast that they jvill make the nominations this From the Eagle Paris Bureau, 2S Avenue de l'Opera, through the courtesy of Abraham Straus.

Then, again, thero is considerable legal business in Suffolk county and the lawyers say that thore should be a resident judge, because as things are now It is necessary for them to travel away down to Long Island City or Brooklyn, when the Journey Is often merely to obtain a signature to an order.

Mr. Whltaker Is a resident of Hampton park, Southampton. He was educated at a German university and studied law with Judge Thomas F. Blsgood at Sug Harbor, studying later with Charles (Vary. In New York.

He was admitted to the bar In 1ST and served as deputy attorney general of the state from ISM to IM'1. In lbSH he was appointed by the legislature, together with Robert B. Roosevelt and the lute General Sherman, commissioner to codify the general laws of the state. He is the author of the Whltaker game code. While deputy attorney general he was connected with most important litigations the state has ever had.

such OjtOItGE AUnilTT. as the Broadway railroad cases, tho North American sugar refinery, anti trust cases and the enforcement of tho corporation tax laws. His opinions while deputy attorney general have become established precedents In the state departments. He served as chairman of committee on law reform of the State liar association for several yeara, and as such was the author of and together with David Dudley Field and J. Newton Flero, procured the establishment of the present reform system of reporting tho court decisions.

This system. In addition to saving every lawyer at least JoU a year In getting the reports and statutes, enables hlm to have every decision and new statute upon his desk weekly. It has also done away with a large number of superfluous periodical law books. Mr. Whltaker Is now chairman of the executive committee of the SAMUEL T.

MADDOX. State Bar association and the author of the present reformed system of examination and admlsBlon of students to the bar. Among the Republicans the men most talked of are W. W. Goodrich.

Hugo Hirsh, Charles H. Russell, Edwin H. Hobhs ami Joseph A. Ran. Mr.

Goodrich is so well known that he does not call for more than passing mention. He is a Piatt man. As a lawyer, he has been practicing for thirty years or longer, and has conducted some of the most Important litigations before tho state and the Cnitcd State" courts. Mr. Goodrich Is less active politically than he was fifteen years ago.

ilr. Hirsh is a S3, i i I EDWARD H0HHS. his friends say that ho is in every respect equipped for judicial position. William D. Veeder is a man of rare Judgment and discernment; a lawyer of acknowledged ability and much experience, and a man of attractive personality.

He was surrogate of Kings county for several terms, retiring from that office with honor to himself. He was a member of the late constitutional convention. Some years ago. when Judge Brown was nominated. Mr.

Veeder was a candidate before tho convention, the local delegation being divided between him and the late Winchester Britton. Mr. Veeder has always been a Democrat. Of lato years he has not been on good terms with some of the Willoughby street bosses, and their Influence, whatever it 1. T.

JtAHEAN may be, would probably bo exerted against him now. He was formely active In party affairs, but for a long time has devoted himself exclusively to the practice of his profession. William B. Davenport made an excellent run for controller In last year's election, which was sii disastrous to tho Democracy. The presentation of his name for judge is entirely the work of friends who think that tho nomination would be advisable.

Mr. Davenport Is now out of the country, hut will return In a few weeks. For several years Mr. Davenport has held the lucrative office of public administrator. A story has been going tbo rounds to the effect that tho Influence of the Brooklyn club is being used to procure iiKRXAHn j.

yoittr. a nomination for judge to Mr. Abbott, so that Mr. Davenport may be named for the surrogate succession. Upon the authority of Surrogate Ahb'jtt it may be said that this story is tho idlest of gossip; that he Is a candidate only for surrogate and has never had aspirations in any other direction.

Mr. Magner Is a fair representative of the young Democracy and for one of his years he has been highly honored by tho party.

depends In a large measure tho safety of the community. The office requires a man" of firmness and determination, one who is thoroughly familiar with criminal law and who Is a keen judge of character. Such a one is Judgo Moore, and his successor should be an equally worthy man. As to the office of surrogate, how important it Is that It should be administered by a man of ability and probity, for he deals with the Interests of widows and orphans, and many delicate and complex questions come before him for settlement. It is an office of much honor and responsibility.

The City of Brooklyn has been fortunate in having surrogates who have reflected credit upon the community, upon themselves and upon the parties which elected them. In the front rank has stood the present Incumbent, Judge Abbott. A HUGO Htnsii. high standard has been set and the people will insist that it shall not be lowered. The candidates for these six jiuliriai offices number twenty five or thirty.

Some nf them are avowed candidates, others are candidates in tho sense that their friends are urging them for the nominations, and while they themselves do not wish to appear as se king the offices they would esteem it great fortune and great honor to be chosen. It is not proposed to discuss here all of the men who aru talked off In connection with the offices. In all probability the most of them will not he heard of in the conventions. What the Eagle proposes to uo is to ten wno are tne men most prominent In the current gossip among the politicians of ootn parties respecting those nominations. There is no use of attempting to foreshadow the results of the conventions.

Political jire diction is proverbially perilous, and especially W. W. GOODRICH. is this true of the situation as it exists tp day. all of the men conspicuous In the discussion of candidates for the supreme court are well known in this city.

On th Democratic side of the house, the list includes James D. Bell, Aline: F. Jenks, Thomas E. Pearsall. S.

S. Whitehouse, William li. Davenport, Thomas F. Magner, Charles J. Patterson and William IJ.

Veedor. It is possible that two of the men in this list will be the candidates. It is likewise possible thai none of them will be selected. Convention time is two months off yet and many things occur between now and then which may bring other men Into prominence. Mention of names must not be regarded as prediction.

A candidate of August may be dead to the political world in October. The friends of Mr. Pearsall are emphatic in their expressions of opinion that he should receive a nomination. They contend that tho fact that he was ofeatoil two years ago should bo no bar to him now They point to the fact that in New York the policy of the Democratic authorities has not been such as to shut out defeated candidates. Thoy show that in several cases men who have run for Judicial office and been defeated have been renominated anil then elected.

They say that the defeat of Mr. Pearsall was not due to any personal objection him. but that Mr. Pearsall was a victim of a general political wreck under which some of the best men went down. Mr.

Pearsall Is among the must Industrious and successful lawyers in Brooklyn. Immediately after his defeat in 1R93. crushing as it would have been to other men. he pulled himself together and resumed his professional with his old time energy and skill. He i itfiimi mem mm mm.
