fused to stay the execution of W. H.

Pacific time. Directly after the as
sembling of the Supreme Court, Mr..
Louis p. Boardman, counsel for Dur
rant, rose and made an application for
an original writ of habeas corpus. The
courtroom was crowded ash has rare
ly been before and death-like stiffness
came upon the place as Attorney
Boardnaan read his application for the
issuance of the writ. He concluded at
1928 and the court retired for consul
tation.
During the time they were out the
suspense was trying to those people
directly Interested in the case and this
was in some measure communicated
to the idle attendants at court. As the
minutes wore away, many people said:
This looks a little favorable" At Los
o'clock the spectators stood and the
judges solemnly filed in. Taking their
seats. Chief Justice Fuller said in slow,
clear tones:
In the matter of this application
for an original writ of habeas corpus
this court has given the most careful
consideration. But il is the unani-
nous judgment of this court that the
application be denied. The application
is denied
People almost held their breath
pending the delivery of the opinion
and at its conclusion there was an au-
dible relaxation of the strain. Attor-
ney Boardman was congratulated by
Senator White of California and many
others on the earnest and able fight
which he had made for his client

UNPRECEDENTED PROSPERITY AHEAD.
Major J. T. Haraham of the Illinois
Central Railway, in an interview in
the Commercial Appeal of last week
gave it as his opinion that as soon as
the war is brought to an end period
of unprecedented prosperity will set
in. The opening up of Cuba and
Porto Rico to American capital and
labor will provide for each remuner-
ative fields of industry. Cuba, though
rich beyond computation, is a desolate
land to-day, and it never has been
more than one-third developed. 1t is
governed by customs and sentiments
that belong to the remote past, and as
soon as American push, energy and
genius are given play it will become,
indeed, the Gem of the Antilles
Porto Rico is more advanced, and has
suffered less from Spanish rule. The
people of the island are more progress
sive and intelligent. As soon as they
have modern laws and modern business
methods introduced they will leap for
ward along the lines of progress
American capital is already preparing
for the invasion of these islands,
