The refusal of the court to make a decision with only a partial bench, however.

Of all, however, the one most mentioned Is Charles E. Hughes, Gov ernor of New York. President Taft will make the ap pointment before rongresB adjourns, and. It Is said by those In the confi dence of the administration, that the governor of New York may be named If he wishes to accept the Judicial po sition. He has already renounced he will not be a candidate ^r governor 'again. Six men are known to have been moat favored for the appoint ment.
