by Mr.. Shapuey. In a general way the
objections to the indictments were
based on contentious Of insufficient
specifications, complete failure to
charge any unlawful act, and an alb
sence of allegation that the defendants
unlawfully obtained any money, either
from the bank or from any other
source.
If the defendants did as the indict-
ments charged, purchase stocks and
bonds through Cashier Hopkins as
agent, Mr.. Shapley claimed that no un-
lawful act had been committed. He
claimed that banks every day act as
purchasers for their depositors or GUS
toners.
Regarding the allegations respecting
the use of state moneys, he argued that
all moneys deposited in a bank go into
the general fund of the bank and there
fore the indictments are defective in
charging the misuse Of state funds OBJ
tanned from the Peoples bank, where
as, if any money was obtained from the
bank it was funds of the Peoples bank.
and not state funds.
Furthermore, the state funds were
deposited in the Bank by various state
treasurers in full authority of law.
Upon conclusion of the arguments Of
Messrs. Shapley and Shields and the
reply of District Attorney Graham, the
court took the papers under advise
ment. He did not intimate when he
would announce his decisions on the
motions presented.

It is probable that from 10000 to 10000
volunteers will be mustered out as soon
as selections of regiments can be made.
There has been quite a demand for
the return of volunteers from Manila,
but no troops will be brought from the
Philippines unless they are replaced
by others. Many of the volunteer regi-
ments in Manila have asked through
the governors and congressman of their
states, to be returned to the United
States, but the war department has not
been able to make any definite prom
ises, pending the peace negotiations.
With the acceptance of the American
terms by the Spanish commissioners,
any further possibilities of renewal of
hostilities with Spain are at an end,
and the only necessity now for troops
is to garrison the islands and preserve
the peace of our own possessions. 1t is
probable that the 10000 or 10000 men
mustered out will include large num-
ber organized for service in Cuba and
the force at Manila will be reduced
whenever General Otis reports affairs
in a quiet state in the Philippines.

COMMENT AT WASHINGTON.
Status of sulu Group-Negotiations
About Ended.


Washington, Nov. 2S.-The officials of
the state department without hesitation
accepted as accurate the Associated
Press bulletin from Paris announcing
that the Spanish commissioners had
accepted the American terms, although
official advices to that effect had not
| been received. Secretary Hay has been
confident from the beginning that such
would be the outcome, although at
times in the negotiations there were
signs of serious disagreements, that
might have led to a failure of the COM
mission.
Much remains to be done in execution
of the last instructions of the state de-
partment before the peace treaty itself
can be completed and made ready for
signature. The work may be hurried
materially, should the state depart
ment decide to permit the treatment Of
the remaining questions to be settled in
separate conventions
The instructions to the American
/ commissioners, sent last week, to ar
range for a renewal of the denounced
trade treaties with Spain, for the ac-
QUESTION of Ualan, for obtaining con-
cessions for cable connections in other
| quarters and for the procurement Of
religious liberation in the Carolines.
These things are not likely to be easily
| disposed of, so it may be that the
American commissioners will feel that
they have complied with the spirit of
their instructions if they succeed in in
eluding in the peace treaty a provision
binding the Spanish government to ne
gotiate thereafter on those subjects on
lines that may be very broadly defined
in the peace treaty. In this case, two
or three more sessions of the peace
commission should suffice to complete
the work of that body; otherwise, it is
dubtful whether the work can be com
pleted before Christmas.
The exact terms of the agreement
reached in Paris are not known in the
state department.
OF course it has knowledge of the
general terms of the agreement. Con-
sequently it is not possible at present
to obtain here a copy for publication
of this important document. Moreover,
it is suggested at the state department
that if the customary rules relative to
the publication of treaties be followed
this particular treaty must be withheld
from the public until the United States
senate, in its discretion, decides to
make it public. There is no rule or
law, however, on this point and the
practice is based entirely upon a rather
ol6-fashioned conception of the degree
of courtesy which should be exhibited
towards the senate by the executive
branch.
SULU ISLANDS.
The state department has not failed
to take notice of certain indirect and
suspicious attempts to ALLEVIATE the

this matter. It was recognized from
the beginning, and this lesson was
learned from the experience of other
nations that have gone to war in recent
years, that attempts might be expected
to be made by nations that were not
party TO the war to secure advantages
to which they had not the slightest
equitable claim. Japan was a notable

CONTEST AGAINST A WOMAN.
Mrs. Campbell May Not Go to the
Idaho Legislature.
(Special TO The Herald.

Boise Ida, Nov. 2S.-If women in this
state can be elected to Office, so must
they experience all the trials and trib-
ulations appertaining thereto. Mrs
Clara L. Campbell was elected to the
legislature from this county and has
been making preparations for her debut
in the law-makng arena, only to be
met with a contest and the possibility
of losing the prize for which she has
worked so hard.
John Whitlock, the Democratic-sil-
ver-Republican candidate, who was
beaten by sixty-four votes by Mrs.
Campbell, today served her with notice
of contest. He claims enough votes to
elect him were thrown out because per-
sons voted for him twice, his name ap-
pearing on the blaL,Set ballot in two
places Under the law each doublet
should have been counted as one vote
Mrs. Campbell is a goldbug Republican.

PURSUIT OF CURRIE GANG.
War Department Has Authority to
Act In Certain Cases.
Especial 10 The Herald.

Washington, D. c.. Nov. 2S.-Adjutant
General II. c. Corbin was asked by
your correspondent this afternoon
whether the war department had au-
thority to chase criminals, with especial
reference to the Currie gang in Wyo-
ming. He said the department could
not do anything in the matter unless
the gang tampered with the mails or
destroyed property belonging to the
general government. The federal troops
could, of course, be employed if the
governor would say that he had ex-
hausted his power and request aid of
the secretary of war.

1--WE decline to order a postponement
of the courtmartial, said the premier.
''To give such an order, even if we had

DO NOT WANT PHILIPPINES.
Volunteers at Manila Prefor to Come
Home.

Port Townsend, Wash, Nov 2S.-Cap-
tain Frederick Keye, company B, First
North Dakota volunteers, who arrived
here tonight from Manila on leave of
absence, reports that among both vol
unteers and regulars the feeling is
strongly against the retention of the
Philippines. The officers are all desir-
Gus of returning home, and a large
number have rendered their resigna-
tions which will not be accepted. Many
have asked leave of absence.
The insurgents are very insolent and
even refuse to obey the orders of the
American authorities. The insurgent
camp was ordered J move eight miles
further back from l.alate, but they re-
fused and the Americans were power
less to enforce the order. The Aneri-
cans and insurgents are not in close
touch and q distinction seems to be
made. Some insurgents are allowed to
come with their arms inside the Amer
lean lines, while others are disarmed
before they can enjoy that privilege.
