In tb preparation of th caa and that,
th counsel' retainer - amounted to
117.000. Then there ar th dally "re

Volnmlaona Documents.
Th .document In th case ar eo
voluminoua that the court was not large
enough to bold them, and a special
room In th Law Court building had
to b fitted ud aa a library, and set
I aside for them. Ther a staff of clerks
la at work all day sortlna and classi
fying them, as they are called for by
counsel in th case, ana ar returned
after use in court.
Nothing could better illustrate th
difference between American and Eng
lish leaal practice than thla caae. in
America ther might be a couple of emi
nent lawyer engaged on each side, but
a case, of this kind would be quickly dis
posed of and moat of tha real business
would be done In conference between
the lawyer and their cllenta In this
caae. aa In-every other English lawsuit,
the lawyers who actually try th caae
frobably never saw their clients until
hey met In court, and even after the
caae Is finished It is auite possible that
thev have never SDoken to them excent
to address the formal question In court
when the cllenta occuoied the wltneaa
box, . .
The cual system which still Survives
In English law practice Is resDonslble
lor tnis absurdity. English lawyers,
of course, are divided into two claasea
I barristers and ao licit ora Tb solicitor
is the man who must be approached b;
the' clients and on whom devolves aJ
I the heavy work In the preparation of
the case lor trial. Yet the solicitor
who has the -case at his flna-era' enda
1 not allowed to ay a word in th
higher court. He must "brief a bar
rister to do tni and etiquette forbid a
barrister to have anything to aay to
the litigant Who is paying hi fee ex
cept through the medium of the eo
llcitor. If tb case la an Important
one b nuat have at least one king's
counsel. Th king's counsel are -the
senior members of the bar and they
ar distinguished from th Juniors by
the fact that their' gown are of silk
while those of the Junior are of "stuff."
They ar also compelled - by the eti
quette , of the profession to charge a
hlsher fee than the Juniors, and the
style of wig that they wear, in court la
a little dlfferentf rora that worn by
th' Juniors. -W;;: .'. s-vsf..."" .;'., . , ',
- ; Cannot gn foi JT.
Etloutte also Ignores the fact that
th barrister is entitled to receive a
fee. In fact the law does not allow
Mm to sue for his fees and he solves
this difficulty by lnsistinsr on a sub
stantlal "retainer" before be undertakes
the ease at all, and an : equally sub
stantlal "refresher" each morning be
fore he goe Into court. 1 He is not
permitted, again Dy etiquette, to receive
these fees ' for himself. Tbey are paid
to bis clerk and tbe custom of the
Srofesslon requires that tbe lees shall
11 be .estimated -in guineas instead of
pounds. . A guinea is on pound, on
shilling:, and th theory la that the
clerk receives the shilling and tb bar
rister - the pound.
There was a time when barrister
were not required to have clerks, but
ven . then they could not compromise
their dignity by - reoeiving money di
reotly. There is a .curious' survival - of
this time In th hood-shaped bag which
nangs irom tn oaca or me Darrisier
gown. It Is popularly supposed that
this la really a- hood, but it is not
In the early days of English litigation
the solicitor drotujed the fee Into this
bag as he followed the member of the
senior , brancn M.tns profession . into

Etiquette also prevents the barrister
from seeking cases In any way, but that
Is overcome by th activities of bis
clerk. A clerk with a large acquaint
anc among solicitors managing clerks
1 a valuabi aaaet to any barrister, and
there are hundreds or solicitors'-: man

think that times were very bard Indeed
