Lawyer's Kindly Act Moves the Judge This tearful tale was borne Attorney John G. McGInniss, who amazeo an ana sundry when he plained that the prisoners scraped together a fee of 120 to him to represent them, and that he had applied the fee toward redeem ing the stolen articles and making step overcame Judge Hylan. promptly decided that Florenco released her on suspended sentence after a few admonitory remarks wnicn were iree irom an attempt at theatrical or profoundly sorrowful world or the next. It was very done and was decidedly better for not ocing overdone. The erring band was remanded for trial Perhaps the most distinguishing bench and the only one especially proceedings was a certain When cross ouestn defendants ho had a habit of delaying tor a noticeable period between tions, but the question was always very mucn to tne point.

Hylan Far from Spectacular. It would he hard to say whether the delays were due to slow mental processes or were the result of an assumption of the Judicial habit. Probably it was both. A man who re quires tlmo to make up his mind does not necessarily come to a weak false conclusion. That would be utterly mistaken idea, and the fact that judge iiyian is essentially decisions or his questions as a machine gun fires bullets, does not militate against him in the least in the mind ol lead lo any Intimation that he is lack ing in brains or knowledge of the law.

HIS style is admittedly far from spectacular, and It may even become wearisome, but the substance of his remarks Is what counts, and that sub- If Judge Hylan carries his methods of the court into the chair of Mayoi of a city of six million people, an out skier would draw the inference thai ho would bo a difficult man on whom to put anything over. The average busy person with a potential graft uf his sleeve is an exceedingly fast and alert conversationalist. Mooting met of his own sort, ho is at his best in the verbal sparring, but nothing discon cert; him mch a Judge Hylan The pauses and tho cogitation by the hearer throw the rapid-fire hustler off his mental and linguistic stride, and when that happens he loses about 50 per cent, of his effectiveness. The rapid-fire party is unconsciously affected by the idea that the party oi the second part can neither he smothered nor bluffed by a torrent of language, and that, every point will have to be demonstrated before the object can be achieved. As the potential grafter invariably has points which he is eagerly anxious not to explain, the chances are he would ultimately begin to stumble and halt before he got entirely through with his carefully elaborated line of chatter.

That's the way Judge Hylan struck us today, and the inhabitants of Greater New York will hope that his deliberative slowness win succeea in blocking or exposing all designs upon Father Knickerbocker.
