Judge Hill has a- number of deci sions yet to write and there are .sev eral pending in which it is desirable that all three of the present judges should participate. The motion for a new trial for Leo M. Frank, convicted of the murder of Mary Phagan, is set to be heard be fore Judge Roan October 4. Judge Hill in his new position will receive a salarv of $5,000 annually. Judge Roan will receive $4 000 as a member of the appellate court. Mr Reid will get a mlarv of $3,000 as judge of th* 1 Stone Mountain circuit, end Mr. Napier, the new Solicitor General, will he paid in fees. Governor Slaton’s action set at rest a great amount of conjecture. Spec ulation has been rjfe since the crea tion of the new judgeship as to whe would get the plum. Judge Hill and Judge Roan were the leading candi dates. although several others had been mentioned. Judge Roan loses $1,000 of his present salary by the new arrangement. A«» judge of the Stone Mountain circuit he received r salary of $3,000, and for presiding over the criminal division of the Ful ton Fountv Superior Gourt he re ceived an additional $2.ooo. W«"s Federal Prosecutor. Judge Hill was Solicitor General of Fulton County from 1877 to 1885, a position In which his brother, Charles D. Hill, succeeded him Grover Cleve land, In his first administration as President, made him United States District Attomev for the Northern District of Georgia On the death of his father in 1882, Governor Colquitt tendered him the unexpired term of the elder Hill in the United States Senate. The posi tion was dec'ined in a letter that was wjdelv published with most favorable comments. He later was defeated for the unexplred term by two votes by Pope Barrow. After the expiration of his term as United States Attorney, he was ap pointed by Judge Newman. Justice White and Judge Pardee as Standing Master In Chancery in the Circuit of the United States for the Fifth Judi cial Circuit. He was elected to the Court of Appeals along with Judge Powell and Judge Russell, and upon the. organization of the court in January, 1907, he was selected as chief judge. Has Heavy Grind. The work of the Court of Appeals has been exceptionally heavy, the court deciding over 5.000 cases, re ported in twelve volumes. Judge Hill participated in the decision of every case and wrote many of the most im portant opinions. Inasmuch as the) Court of Appeals has exclusive juris diction of all criminal appeals, except where there is a conviction for a capital offense, Judge Hill has had re markable exuerienca in the Interpre tation and enforcement of the crim inal law. His duties in the new judgeship primarily will he to try all the fel onies In Fulton County, although his jurisdiction as to other matters will be the same as the other judges of the Superior Court. He gives up a place on a court of last resort with a term of six years, to which he was elected last October, for a lower po sition, with the necessity of going before the people for election next summer. The work, however, is less arduous and th$ salary is $1,000 more. Judge R. B. Russell will succeed Judge Hill as the chief judge of the Court of Appeals. Judge Roan Able. Judge Roan has presided over some of Georgia’s most famous criminal trials. He has been judge of the Stone Mountain circuit for a long term of years and has gained the reputation of being one of the most able criminal jurists in the State. Solicitor Reid lives at Palmetto.

FOliCY PERILS TD0USJDJ0B5 Assistant Secretary of Navy De clares It Vi/ill Soon Reduce Nation’s Fighting Strength* Gives Barber Ring; Finds He’s Married Handsome Jacksonville Divorcee Has Tonsorial Apollo Arrested When He Reports Gem Lost. WASHINGTON, Sept. 13.—The one- battleship policy of Congress will not only strike a severe blow at the de fensive power of the United States, but will throw’ out of employment thousands of men who depend upon navy yards work for their daily bread, it was learned here to-day. The dangers of a continuation of the policy were set forth as follows by Franklin D. Roosevelt, Assistant Secretary of the Navy: 1. A decrease of the fighting strength of the American navy by six first class ships by 1916. 2. The discharge of thousands of employees of navy yards throughout the United States* within the next four months. 3. The resultant loss of the Gov ernment corps of expert mechanics skilled in battleship and big gun con struction. "There are ten battleships sched uled for retirement from the ranks of the navy during the next four years,” said Mr. Roosevelt. “This is in compliance with the well-established estimates of navy experts that the life of a battleship is fifteen years. Four will go out of commission this year and two will pass the age limit each succeeding year until 1916. A continuance or the one-battleship policy, therefore, will mean the loss of six fighting vessels to the navy. “Repair of the battleship fleet has been practically accomplished by the navy yards, and from now on this work wi'l not rise above the normal. Also all of the large contracts for new’ battleships have been let, and unless Congress enacts a larger navy program, the navy yard forces must inevitably be reduced.” Mr. Roosevelt admitted that work row’ being done by private contrac tors should go to Government shops. "Money could be saved by this pro gram,” he «aid. “and the work would be as well if not better done. Bills providing for the building of big gun and armor p'ate foundries are now pending in Congress.” Navv yard employees have set afoot a petition to Secretary Daniels and President Wilson calling attention to the present state of affairs. They will present the. petition to the Secretary and urge upon him a four-battleship program. Commandant Jones, of the Washington Navy Yard, which was recently hit by the discharge of 40 expert machinists, predicted to-day that these petitions would come to naught. "It is up to Congress to give the men more w’ork,” said Jones. “We have all the men we can handle under the present battleship program, un less the Government wants to’ give them armchairs and newspapers and pay first-class machinists salaries for the rest of the winter.” The shock experienced by a hand some and wealthy divorcee of Jack sonville, Fla., when she discovered that a good looking barber on whose finger she had placed a $200 diamond ring was a married man was described tearfully to-day before Magistrate Gorman. The divorcee w’as Mrs. E. A. Her bert, the former wife of a rich Jack sonville real estate man, and the bar ber in the case was Howard Carroll, who has the figure and face of a mat- . inee idol. Mrs. Herbert had caused Carroll's arrest on the charge of larceny of the ring. Mrs. Herbert testified that when, j on the next day, she saw’ that the dia mond was missing from the finger I ,,f her barber, she asked him what had become of it, he replied that he I had lost it.
