Altogether the chances of his recov- cry are believed to be favorable. The date of the examination of Conductor Butler, charged With the shooting, will probably be fixed today. 1t is doubt ful if any other testimony than thas of Mitchell and John Grimes can be adduced in support of the charge. A couple of men at Tempe who said on the night of the shooting and the morning after, that the shot was fired by t[he conductor, have since modified their statements, saying they thought so, but could not swear to it. There were two or three Indians on the car from which the shot was fired, but it is doubtful if they can be located.

Senator Morgan will leave for San Fran

and after a brief rest the senator will
leave for Washington, hoping to arrive
there about the middle OF November.
He states that he has been strongly con-
WINGED In his own mind that annexation
OF the Islands is the right thing. He
is happy that his visit to Honolulu has
given him such a fund OF Information that
he can debate with intelligence on the
question when II comes up In the senate
this winter. He said his previous inforIna-
ton was CLEANED from islanders who he
CHANGED to meet and from what books
he could get hold Of He has now been
on the ground and ascertained for him
self the conditions Of things, which will
have important bearing on the debate that
Is to ensie. While no is considered an
authority OIL Hawaiian matters by his
colleagues. his right to the position will

stated that all citizens OF Hawaii Will

Those people, he continued. who hold

congress will take some measure to give
them tho full privileges. The Portuguese

taken will become citizens OF the United

MOTION IN THE MOBILES CASE.

ynnccl Ii pOsNihlc.


Atlanta. Ca, October 16.-Attorney Cen
eral Terrell has made motion for an
advance upon the docket OF the case of
Elizabeth Mobiles by the United States su-
preme court.
The Mobiles case Ia one that all Geor-
CLANS are familiar with. The old woman
Is under sentence OF death, charged with
has been in court times innumerable and
has travelled from the superior court to
the supreme court OF Georgia several times.
When the defense lost its case before
the supreme court the last time it was
heard there II was at once carried to the
United States supreme court. AS the case
now stands on the docket 1t would prob
ably be two years before II is reached and
for this reason a motion for an advance
ment was made by Colonel Terrell in order
that the case can be heard some time in
December. In his motion for advancement
Attorney General Terrell contends that the
process OF Justice In the State is delayed.
The Mobiles caee was carried 10 the Fed
oral courts through tho plea that Mrs. Mo-
bles Is Insane and that her execution
would be a violation OF the fourteenth
amendment Of the National constitution.
1t will be remembered that Gus Families
WAS tried ms being Mrs Mobiles assistant
IN the murder and met the same fate In
the courts us did the old woman. He has
been respted time and again, the govern

Mrs. Mobiles case is settled.
When tho Mobiles case Is heard ly the
United states supreme count 1t will Iroba-
bly, be the final hearing and wsll finally
decide what Will become OF the old woman.

preston on her face, Miss Cisneros bowed
to her audience, for hers it was, and then
turned to Mr.. Decker indicated that she
wanted him to understand that the APT
