Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Charles E. Hughes, the Statesman: As Shown in the Opinions of the Jurist Charles Evans Hughes was appointed to the Supreme Court by President Taft on April 25, 1910. He was then nearing the close of his second term as Governor of New York, having been first elected in 1906. Before becoming Governor, he had been a practising lawyer in New York City since 1884, with the exception of the years 1891 to 1893, when he was a professor in the Cornell University College of Law at Ithaca. His professional eminence had received public recognition through his service in 1905 and 1906 as counsel to the special investigating bodies of the New York Legislature, known as the Stevens Gas and Electric Lighting Committee and the Armstrong Life Insurance Investigation Committee. In 1906 he had been designated as one of the special counsel of the United States Department of Justice to initiate steps for the prosecution of the so-called coal-owning and coal-carrying railroads for violations of the Anti-Trust and Anti-Rebate laws.
