HOWGATE'S TRIAL.

May Be Set for the 9th of This
Month.
District Attorney Birney, who has been
confined to his home for about two weeks,
suffering from appendicitis, was sufficient
ly recovered today to resume his official
duties, although still quite weak from the
pain he had suffered. The second trial of
Henry w. Howgate set for today, was
Indefinitely postponed, although, explained
mir. Birney, he would endeavor to have the
trial set down for the 9th of this month.
The trial, said Mr.. Birney, would be had
on the two indictments which, respectively,
charge Howgate with classifying an account
and with forging the same, the account
being one of $1,000 with the American
Union Telegraph Company.
The Howgate trial, thought Mr.. Birney,
would not consume more than a week S
time, and upon its conclusion he will take
up the case of Broker Elverton X. Chap
man, one of the indicted sugar trust con-
tumaciouS witnesses. AS it is the intention
of Mr.. Chapman's counsel to carry the case
to the United States Supreme Court in the
event of a conviction, stated Mr.. Birney,
the other sugar trust witnesses will not be
placed on trial until after the Supreme
Court has passed on the law points in the
Chapman case, which are practically the
same as those arising in the other cases,
explained Mr.. Birney.

NOT SO BALMY.
The Weather Man Thinks 1t VIII Bt
Fair Tomorrow.

Forecast till 8 pm, Tuesday: For the
District of Columbia, Delaware and Mary
land, fair today. increasing cloudiness with
showers tonight, probably fair Tuesday;
warmer tonight northwesterly winds, be-
coming southeasterly.
For Virginia. fair, except showers in
western portion tonight; warmer tonight;
northerly winds, becoming southerly.
Three storms appear on the weather map
this morning. One, the storm which caused
the rain and subsequent cool wave in the
middle Atlantic and New England sta .es,
occupies New Brunswick; the second las
developed suddenly over the western lake
region, and the third storm is central north
of Montana. The cool wave which over
spread the eastern part of the country dur
ing Sunday and Sunday night has been at
tended by exceptionally low temperature
for the season and by frost in parts of the
middle Atlantic states, extreme north parts
of the gulf states, Tennessee, the upper
Ohio valley and the lower lake region. AT
Washington the minimum temperature this
morning was 40 degrees, but the fresh
wind which continued during the night
contributed to prevent the occurrence of
frost in this locality. Snow, with tempera-
ture slightly below freezing, is reported
this morning at points in the upper lake
region. The indications point to slowly
rising temperature and probably fair
weat her Tuesday. The weather outlook is
however, uncertain, as the lake storm may
move eastward and cause rain in this
ton within the next tWenty-four hours.

The Story TGld by an American Sailor
Who Says He WINS HypnOtized.


Who Says He WINS HypnOtized.
SAN FRANCISCO, May 13.-Robert Oh
man, passenger on the City of Pekin
which arrived from Hong Kong yesterday
tells peculiar story of hypnotism said to
have been practiced upon himself and a
number of others while confined in Rus
sian prisons N Siberia. With nine Others,
who composed the crew of the schooner
Emma, which sailed from Douglas City,
Alaska, in 1893, on a sealing voyage, he
SAID he was seized by Russian officers on
the Galne Islands. Gilman said he did not
Know what charge was placed against
them or what crime they had been guilty
Of, but nevertheless they were locked up
in a Jail OH the island and kept there for
sew eral weeks. They then were taken to
some place on the coast, where they were
supposed to stand trial for their offense.
All the proceedings were conducted in the
Russian language, and no defense was Of
fered. Just what the proceedings were
that shortly after the court adjourned he
was placed IN a cell by himself and made
to work apart from his comrades. Every
effort was made to get him to betray his
comrades, but he had nothing Of a GRIM
inal character to divulge and at last he
was sent to the prison at Viadivostock
There, he says, he was hypnotized by the
government officials. What he did after
that he does not remember until he was
placed on steamer for Nagasaki, in the
care of an Englishman German, and
handed over to the American consul at
Nagasaki who secured transportation for
him to America. The unfortunate man
could not tell what had become of his ship
mates, whom he left in the Siberian prison,
but he believes he was the means of send
ing them all to the gallowS by the stories
he told about them while under hypnotic
influence.

pounds, overweight allowed. The entries

way the foUner winning by three lengths,
