WAS HE JUSTIFIED?
The Examination of Robinson Shows a One-Sided Senti- m mt Against the
 Deceased.

Robinson, who shet and killed West at the Lone Star ranch on the night of the 2lst of the present month had his examination today before Justice Duncan.
 Both men were colored soldiers in the same company. Mrs. Ellen Reilly, at whose place the affair hap pened, was present and say the kill ing. She testified that Robinson and West were in the bar room. West had been of on furlough for a few days and had been living with one of the girls at her ranch, negress named Jennie Gaut.
 Robinson was a quiet, sober man, while West was a quarrelsome, drunk en fellow always seeking fight, near ly always packed a gun and was an abusive fellow.
 West called Robinson a foul name Robinson retaliated by saying that he did rot know whether West was the same kind of freak, but his mother might have been a COW. This angered West, who started toward Robinson. The latter made for door and tried to get out but could not, owing to the peculiar lock on the door. West ap- preached within few feet of Rebin- son, when the latter fired and West fell.
 Jennie Gaut, the negress, who was Vests paramour, testified that she knew nothing of the occurrence of the night as she was "full." When asked what that meant she stated it meant livery drunk" Sl.e had been drink ing all day and was in the act of drinking when the shot was fired. She didn't remember chasing Robinson around the house with razor.
 Sergeant Brown and other witnesses testified about the same as Mrs. Riley. All gave West bad name and Robinson a good character.
 Brown said that West advanced on Robinson with one hand on his hip pocket. He would have acted as Robinson did had he been in his place.
 One witness gave West a good name. Robinson was held over with bonds fixed at Sl.000.

Edwin Booth, who was brought back from Texas by Tom Howarth of Wilcox, charged with the seduction of one of his pupils, Minnie King. while teaching school at that place last April, is now in the county jail in Tombstone awaiting the action of the grand jury.

He replied that he had noth- ing to say except that the matter would come out all right in the end, and that he had no apprehension of the result. He seemed to keenly feel the position in whic hhe is placed, and stated that it was the first time he had ever been in such a place.
 The papers from the justice office in Wilcox were filed with District Canrt CIark Emaruel today The complaint on which he was arrested was made by the girls mother, who swore that the accused had had sex ual intercourse with her daughter with the latter's consent.

worst. The sentimental female who
worships a hero In curly wig and a

upon the stage, to become anything
from a tray carrier or high kicker to
a great tragedy actress. Is an extraor-

struck girls who are yearly making

cannot be drawn from her retirement,

defense Of the Sound is a matter OF
great concern, that Is, unless we are
prepared to act on the theory that we
need no defenses at all. There has been
a great deal Of talk as to the advantage
Of Hawaii as an outpost to protect this
coast, but we fancy that its value
largely exists in the imagination of the
writer's who tell about 1t.
In the event of a war with England,
says the Seattle Telegraph, of what
value would Notifications and naval
station on Hawaii be to us here on the
Sound? The British fleet would sail
down from Esquimalt and we could
do absolutely nothing to keep 1t from
taking possession Of the whole Sound
country, and the western termini of
several transcontinental railways. In
the event of war with some other for
eign power Hawaii would not be OF
much greater value than in that just
supposed. We hope that we will never
need Notifications against any power,
but unless we are banking on the early
dawn Of the millennium, or are to adopt
a policy Of non-resistance, 1t is time
that Puget Sound was rendered i'm
pregnable to any foe. It would be an
easy thing to make 1t so.

When economy runs into downright
stupidity 1t is time to seriously consid-

of good thing. At the meeting Of the
city council last night there was put
forth one of the most insane PROPOSE

The gem came In committee report,
and It was to the effect that, II the
Telephone Company didn't choose to
give the city its telephones free, all
the instruments except that In No 2's
engine house should be thrown out and
discontinued. After some discussion
the matter was referred to the COM
mittee on fire and water. Let the gen.
tlemen forming that committee deal
with it very promptly and send it back
to the council with the statement that
q more absurd idea was never promul-
gated. Here are men VINO IN the IN
terests OF what they choose to term

lars for the purpose of saving SO per
month, the cost of two telephones.
We do not believe that the council
men who advocated this measure gave
It the least consideration. They are or
all occasions level-headed and sensible

able that in a matter of such vital i'm
pqrtance they should have so slgnally
failed to rise to q sense of their public
