Judge Cook Alone MURASKY AND TROUTT CONCLUDE NOT TO SIT CONTINUANCE GRANTED ON ATTORNEY GENERALS ACCOUNT THE Attorney Drum Does Not Intend Carry On the Controversy for Members of Wld Board to The hearing of the Board of Health case was postponed yesterday until July 21st by Judge Cook as the attorneys were not ready to proceed Judge Mura3ky and Judge Troutt were to have sat with Judge Cook but Judge Murasky concluded to not take part In the determination of the case and on that account Judge Troutt thought that he al should not sit Judge Cook therefore will decide the controversy The case was originally assigned by presiding Judge Cook to his own department but when the attorneys for the old Board of Health objected to this assignment he laid the matter before tne otner superior juuges ne other Judges thought that the usual course should be followed in dealing with this case and that the presiding Judge should act on hla own Judgment In the matter but as Judge Cook was desirous of having other judges sit with him Judge Troutt and Judge Murasky consented to do so It was then agreed that the hearing should take place In Judge Troutts courtroom at the City Hall instead of Judge Cooks courtroom at the Hall of Justice Judge Cook made his arrangements accordingly and so all the business on his calendar was transacted yesterday at the City Hall Judge Murasky on reflection made up his mind to not sit in the case He had no reason to give for his disinclination further than that he did not see any necessity for having three judges deliberate over the case In his opinion no

days ago saying that he had concluded not to sit in this case No reason was assigned by him and 1 have not had an opportunity to see him I met Judge Troutt before entering the courtroom and he gaid that as Judge Murasky was not going to take part in the case the conditions had changed and he felt that he should not sit When he agreed to sit he said it was with the understanding that three Judges would act and he thought that nothing would be gained by two Judges sitting for if they disagreed there would be no decision Judge Cook added that he would consequently have to try the case alone Attorney Huef representing the new Board of Health appointed by Mayor Schmttz asked for a continuance of two veeks saying that while he was prepared to go ahead at once the AttorneyAttorney General with whose consent thi6 quo warranto proceeding was begun desired a short delay Judge Cook responded that he could hear the matter at once but not two weeks from the present day He said that the continuance would have to be until July 21st and Ruef stated that the date would be agreeable The old Board was not represented in court After Garret McEnerney and Gavin McNab withdrew as attorneys

interesting production of Faust with the Brocken scene especially very effectively presented The noteworthy point was the first appearance of Morgan as Mephis topheles It la said that Mr Morgan took
