The trustees of the Rochester Bar Association met yesterday and voted to hold A special meeting on Monday, August 5th, for the consideration of the special committee's report on the public attitude to toward the courts and of other matters. President R. E.

White instructed Secretary Homer E. A. Dick to send out the formal call. The secretary is having the committee report printed for convenience of discussion, Copies being sent to members of the bar. Besides the report and the invitation to participate in the city centennial, the association has another matter of unusual importance to consider.

At the request of the New York State Bar Association, lawyers' organizations are being put on record on the proposition of bi-partisan nominations for the Court of Appeals. The terms of Judges Vann Haight, Republicans, expire with 1912 and those of Chief Judge Cullen and Judge Gray, Democrats, at the end of 1913. The loss of these four experienced and able men will be seriously felt unless they are replaced by the best timber available, To prevent the politicinns from bedeviling the selections, the state bar committee has suggested that Republican and a Democratic judge be chosen this year and the method repeated in 1913. It is figured that this would give the least possible excuse for partisan polities in the selection of Judges to the four vacancies. On Monday the Rochester Bar Association will consider the proposition and act on it.

The two stations, one on each side of the river near the Lower Falls, will be connected by four cables of hard-drawn copper wire manufactured to the order of the company. These cables, three of which are seven-eighths of an inch in diameter and about half an inch, will have one, 600 feet and a strain of 30,000 pounds will be exerted on the two poles to support them. Figure A poles are to be used and the weight of the four cables will be about 2,500 pounds. Thomas Yawger, superintendent of the electrical department, said yesterday: "It would be impossible to stretch the cables from bank to bank so there would be no sag in them, as the great strain Would part the cables or pull down the poles. The greater the sax in the cables the less the strain, but since there would be a great amount of sway if they were very slack and the cost ef copper is high, we are required to compromise by increased tension and reduced 115e of cable.

The strain on the poles is about ten times the weight of the suspended cables. "When the connection between stations is made efficieney of the stations will be greatly increased. One will tend to equalize the other. changes are being planned. for bettering the service, but the one of spanning the river with 600 foot cables is the most difficult."
