Present: The Chief Justice, Mr. Justice Field, 1\r. Justice Harlan, Mr. Justice Gray, Mr. Justice Brewer, Mr. Justice Brown, Mr. Justice Shiras, and Mr. Justice White. The Chief Justice said: The court reassembles again saddened by a vacant chair. Mr. Justice Jackson died at Nashville,. Tenn., on the 8th day of August last. This was followed by the death of Mr. Justice Strong on the 19th day of the same month, who, during his retirement, had maintained his companion- ship with the members of the bench he had adorned. It has been the immemorial usage for the court on the first day of the term-or first day upon which a quorum appeared-not to proceed in the transaction of business, but to adjourn to wait upon the President of the United States. The President is absent, and we shall follow the course pursued last year, namely, to dispose of such matters as may be properly brought before us. All motions not submitted to-day may be brought on to-morrow, and the usual order for the call of the docket that day will be entered. The Hon. Richard Glney then addressed the court as follows I ask the indulgence of the court while I present my successor in the office of Attorney-General of the United States-Mr. Judson Harmon. The Chief Justice responded: The court parts with the retiring Attorney-General with regret, and is happy to welcome his successor. Let the commission of the Attorney- General of the United States be recorded. Floyd Hughes, of Norfolk, Va.; Watson Andrews Sudduth, of Louis- ville, Ky.; William H. Middleton, of Harrisburg, Pa.; Charles A. Willard, of Minneapolis, Minn.; J. Nota McGill, of Washington, D. C.; Charles H. Bergner, of Harrisburg, Pa.; Morris D. Wickersham, of Mobile, Ala.; Abram Ralph Snow, of Washington, D. C.; and James A. D. Richards, of New Philadelphia, Ohio, were admitted to practice. 5042-1
