HANFORD RESIGNS WHILE UNDER FIRE

Federal Judge at Seattle Quits as Inquiry Closes. SENDS TAFT WORD BY WIRE Jurist Threatened With Impeachment Says 111 Health Is the Reason for His Retirement From the Bench.

Seattle, Wash., July 23.—Judge Cornelius H. Hanford of the United States district court, whose conduct on the bench has been under Investigation for nearly a month by a subcommittee of the house judiciary committee, has telegraphed his resignation to President Taft. Judge Hanford gives ill health as the reason for his resignation. Socialist's Case Starts Trouble. The impeachment proceedings against the judge were the direct outgrowth of a decision rendered by him last spring declaring forfeited the naturalization papers of a resident of this city named Olsson because of his socialistic views. Hanford based his action on the ground that Olsson had deceived the court and that his radT leal opinions constituted a menace to the institutions of the country. The impeachment resolution was introduced in the house by Representative Victor Berger of Milwaukee and on its adoption a subcommittee headed by James M. Graham of Illinois was appointed to conduct an investigation in this city/ Charges Cover Wide Range.

In the hearings witnesses testified that Judge Hanford had been seen repeatedly in an intoxicated condition on the bench and in the streets; that the judge ’ manipulated receivership cases to the advantage of a favored appointee; that he had sought favors of the Northern Pacific Railroad company while that corporation was a litigant in his court and that, after he had been given an option on certain lands by the Northern Pacific, he rendered a decision favoring the company in a tax suit.

The judge was accused also of having a part in the wrecking of a business firm which was brought into his court on a claim by creditors. In connection with this particular case the name of Ballinger,, former secretary of the interior, was mentioned in the hearings. Hearing Is Closed.

The committee was ordered by wire by Chairman Clayton of the house judiciary committee to take no more testimony and to return to Washington at once. Taft Awaits Hanford’s Letter. Washington, July 23. —President Taft will take no action in connection with Judge Hanford’s resignation until he has received a letter which the judge has written him. “Judge Hanford has telegraphed me that he has written me a letter,’’ said the president, “and I shall do nothing until I have received it.”

DENEEN IS FOR TAFT

TELLS PROGRESSIVES HE WILL SUPPORT THE PRESIDENT. Other Nominees on Illinois Republican Ticket Take Same Position as Governor Does.

Springfield, 111., July 23.—Governor Charles S. Deneen and the other mminees on the Republican state ticket told the progressive party committee rot five they were first of all Republicans; that they expected to support the Republican national ticket, and that they would not indorse Theodore

Roosevelt and his new party. Governor Deneen made his position i clear to the committee. He said no ; one had questioned the legality of his nomination and the nomination of his : fellow members on the Republican state ticket, and that he could not appreciate the logic of the argument which would require, that he and the . others should resign from the nominations which had been given them by I the voters of the party because some of those voters believe the title to ! the nominations made by the national | convention is not clear. Discussing the possible effect of a ; third ticket in Illinois, the governor | said: '

Ihe utmost that could be hoped to be achieved by such a course would be the defeat of the Republican nominees for state-offices and the election of their opponents, and the election, under the cumulative system of voting, of a sufficient number of members of the Iwuse of representatives, representing your friends, to prevent any party from organizing a majority and assuming the responsibility for legislation.” According to the governor’s view, such a situation would necessitate a bipartisan or a tripartisan combination.
