Doubt Extra Session Brig Cost Not Warranted
Beverly July 6 There were no developments in the Supreme Court vacancies as calls at the summer White House found no change in President Taft's stance. Gov Hughes of New York is likely to be the successor to Chief Justice Fuller, with no appointments expected until late fall. The idea of an extraordinary Senate session to confirm court appointees met with no encouragement. The trust cases involving Standard Oil and American Tobacco loom in November, making a rush unlikely. Taft aims for a full bench and careful consideration before choosing new members. Gov Hughes will attend Chief Justice Fuller’s funeral in Sorrento, Maine, but no call on Beverly is planned.
