Should Mr. Cotton definitely de cline the Judgeship, the friends of Judge Lowell of this city, believe that his chances for the appointment are excellent, as It was reported from Washington, before Cotton's appoint ment was made, that Judge Lowell had been named. Friends of Mr. Cotton say that he has not Intended to accept the ap pointment at any time, but allowed his name to be used since he had been recommended, as the suggestion of his name for the place added weight and dignity to his career and fitted him for promotion to other positions In the railroad service.
