Meeting on Itttles Expected Soon. It Is expected a meeting soon will be called to consider the court rules proposed by members of the Multnomah Bar Association.

Judge Gantenbein appeared on the bpnch last week, but will not formally open his docket until today. Judge Morrow for the past two weeks has been hearing a few cases and dispos ing of odds and ends of business. Judge McGinn is expected to return to tiie bench today, but no word has been re ceived from him for several weeks. Judge Davis has appeared at the Court house occasionally in the past two weeks. Judge Kavanaugh will not resume his docket today, but will begin active work on the famous Dodge timber land case, which he now has under advise ment. It took 34 actual trial days to hear this case, which involved several million dollars' worth of Skamania County timber land. There was no jury. lorul-Squod' Suit Begins Todar. One trial of interest that' will begin today is the $20,000 damage suit to be heard by Judge Gantenbein against TVill II. Warren, private secretary to Mayor Albee, and three members of the police "moral squad." The suit was brought by Mr. and Mrs. .A. K. Ingersoll, who were'arrested in the Minook Hotel last February and lodged in jail on a charge of immorality. Several days later they were absolved. Deputy District Attorney Collier has Just arranged a schedule for several criminal cases of importance. Today Mr. Collier will go to Salem to argue the Douie Hing murder case before the Supreme Court. Charles Hayes will be tried soon for assault with intent to kill. II. C. Behnke, a former real estate man. will be tried on a charge of ob taining the signature of Gottlieb Han hart to a mortgage by false pretense. His previous trial on a forgery charge resulted in a hung jury. Fred Skogseth. driver of an auto truck, the only man ever convicted under the "involuntary manslaughter" act of will be tried again. The Alhin L.. Clark case, resulting from the wholesale election frauds in Precinct 37 at the last general election, is still hanging fire. CTT-'l'r In! Action Is lendlnic. Clark's first trial on the charge of changing 120 odd ballots in favor of Tom Ij. Word, Democratic candidate for Sheriff, resulted in a hung jury. On the second trial, before Judge Gatens. he was convicted. The sentence was delayed for some time, and the sudden death of A. M. Butler, court reporter, intervened. Although Deputy District Attorney Collier ofrered the affidavits of two stenographers that they could make a transcript from Mr. Butler's notes, and offered to stipulate a bill of exceptions with the attorneys for 'the defense. Judge Gatens set aside the verdict and ordered a new trial. Mr. Collier said tho state already had been put to tiie expense of two trials, and he was not sure another would be ordered. And there the case stands today. When court opens today a new face will appear in the courtroom of Judge Kavanaugh. George C. Graham has been appointed clerk of that depart ment by County nerk Coffey. He suc ceeds Sanfield MacDonald. who was discharged by Mr. Coffey while the Dodge trial was in progress.
