ARCHBISHOP IRELAND
EXTREMELY RETICENT
DECLINES TO BE INTERVIEWED
Refuses TO State the Object of His
Visit 10 Washington or Discuss
Prominent Subjects.

Archbishop Ireland is at the Ebbitt
House
1t is presumed that his mission 20 Wash
ington is in connection with the interests
of the Catholic Church in the Philippines
though the prelate declined to answer
questions along this line.
why have you come to Washington
inquired the reporter.
That is a question ! do not propose 10
answer. ] will not tell you why ] have
come 10 this city said the archbishop,
with his blandest smile and peasant in
cllnation of the head. Taking the arm Of
the reporter, he said: 4 would like TO ac-
commodate you by giving you good,
long story, but ] am not to be interviewed
today"
When Archbishop ireland comes %
Washington many persons take ii for
granted that he has come to see the
President" said the reporter.
Everybody has a right to guess about
the intentions Of other people. The Presi-
dent is not the only person in this city
whom one might wish to See replied the
archbishop.
How do you stand on the question Of
annexation" queried the reporter.
Il don't want TO discuss that matter
now. Wait till you hear from Congress.
/ have gone over that ground long ago,
and / believe that my views would not be
especially interesting"
''Will the Catholic Church thrive more
under American government than under
Spanish control?'
You ask very direct Questions. Wei,
now I don't believe ! can enter into
q discussion of that proposition either"
VIII you go out to the university"
Yes, ! expect to, if 1 find time.
Then you expect to be kept quite busy
during your stay in Washington
We'll, 1 don't know. 1 expect TO have
some leisure"
Il viii tell you what I want To discuss
with YOU" said the archbishop.
Well said the reporter.
4 would like 10 talk about the weather
and about the beauty and the growth
and the hospitality of Washington. This
is really fine day, and this city is par
ticUlarly handsome"

CLOSING ARGU MENTS
In THE BARRON TRIAL
MAY pE CONCLUDED ToDA,
Former Senator Eiuckburn. of Ken
tuclSy, Began His Plea to the
Jury This Morning.

Rockville, Md, Dec. S.-This is the
fourth day of the Barron murder trial,
which viii be entirely consumed by the
closing arguments by the counse.s for the
State and the defense.
The court room was filled to overflow
ing this morning with curious and inter
ested spectators. largely made up of la
dies. The prisoner was more nervous this
morning, but his general bearing up to
this time has been remarkable In its
calmness and dignity. Mrs. Barron, his
mother. sat by the prisoners chair and
remained at his side the entire day She
was nervous and anxious throughout the
argument. Mr.. Wells closed his argu-
meut in short and very strong appeal
TO the jury and gave way to former Sena-
tor Blackburn
Tie kentuckian's opening remarks 10
the jury were, in part, as follows:
Gentlemen Of The jury. you have lis
tened 10 the testimony given by witnesse $
in your hearing and We have now reach
ed the last stage in this important affair
and there is but one argument To fol ow
/ Will ask you TO go back TO the Begin
ming and consider this man on t-:al In
the light OF the testimony as t. Lis char
acter ii is beyond reproach He was
born and reared in the little village Of
Bladensburg. There in its valley a Ran
/ doiph and Clay met in mortal combat
/ l. II surprising if you hear of an ccc a
! sional death from deadly weapons? IS ii
correct gentlemen. for US to expect more
Of another man than We would do our
/ selves under similar circumstances?
As 10 the prisoners character, we
would not have put witnesses on the
| stand II we could not have maintained it.
We defied thr State 10 disprove it. Let
as come To The story. 1t would be sur
prising if there was no conflicting testi-
! mony. Barron and Parker left the post
office and went to Garges' saloon, when
Johnson was asked to loan Barron a pis-
! tol.
Few boys raised in Bladensburg COM
munity that do not carry a pistol"
] The former Senator made a strong ar
( Gument FOR the accused. He summed up
+ the case in a most concise manner. At
times he became eloquent in the extreme
/ Sentiment for the prisoner here is very
! much divided. II is doubtful if an ac-

NE HAS LOST WIS WATCH
Brammat Had Too Much Conf.
dence In His Friend.
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
Rooert Works VIII Learn His Fate
Nsx Saturday-He Insists That
He Hes Not Been Treated
Right.

Charles Brammat, a miner called at
h county attorneys office yesterday
with a complaint against one Jim Nc
MILAN. whom he accused OF making
away with a Sis gold watch and chain.
Brammat said he became hard up and
had to pawn the watch with a broker
for $22. Mcmillan. who was a friend
and companion of Brammat's, offered
to redeem h watch, and he was al
carry 1t until Brammat got employ
ment and could raise the money to pay
his friend. The two made prepara-
tons to &c to Granite Mountain yes
terday together. On Sunday some one
told Brammat that Mcmillan intended
skipping out, and Brammat hunted
him up and asked him about it. Nc
MILAN denied II, but Brammat was sus-
picious. and he wanted his watch. and
offered to get another friend to re-
deem 1t. Mcmillan said he had allowed
a friend OF his to carry il, but prom
ised to get 1t and turn Ii over to its
owner at their lodging house. That
was the last Brammat "a of him, and
yesterday morning he learned hat Nc
MILAN had purchased a ticket and gone
to Norris. Deputy County Attorney
Attorney Stivers listened to Brammat's
story, and then informed him that as
he had voluntarily given the watch
to Mcmillan no criminal charge could
be made to stick against him. and that
his only recourse was a civil action.
Robert Works. the murderer Of I'd
ward DAILY, who was found guilty of
manslaughter was to have been SEN
fenced yesterday, but on request of one
of his attorneys Judge Clancy post
49, ~ -~
Attorney McClernan stated to the court
that as Work had only been convicted
last Friday, his attorneys hardly had
time to discuss wha course 10 ur-
sue in the case. and therefore asked n
postponement Of sentence until they
had an opportunity to 10 SO. Works,
like most murderers, has an idea that
he was u~njustly convicted, and that
he should have been acquitted and voted
a medal. after the custom which once
prevailed in this community.
John w. Cotter yesterday had his
name entered as one of the attorneys
for NJ. l.. Wines and f.. s. Booth. who
are charged with subornation of per-
jury. There will be a formidable ar
ray of legal talent on the side of the
defendants when their case comes TO
trial. So far F.. r. Corbett. Emmett
Callahan and John W.Cotter have been
retained. and ii is understood other
rames are to be entered.
j. s. Galloway. the druggist who is
charged with forgery. was i'm court
again yesterday, and entered a plea of
not guilty to the charge. Judge Clancy
set his case for trial IN May 8.
Deputy Sheriff Sidley yesterday took
Nick Martelle to Deer Lodge to serve
five years for burglary. He also took
John Ryan to the asylum at Warm
Springs.
Judge Clancy yesterday made an Or
der appointing Mrs. Ida Livingston
guardian for her son.. Fred Livingston.

ANNEXED THE ISLANDS,
Unusual Honors We're Thrust On Messrs.
Newbro and Monteath.

Newbro and Monteath.
Those who ought to know say that
d. M. Newbro and j. H. Monteath of
this city were accorded unusual, II not
unwelcome, honors in their recent visit
to the Hawaiian islands. 1t seems that
on the same steamer on when the
Butte gentlemen went 20 the islo lids
the Hawaiians expected some annexa-
ton commissioners, who We're to an
mex the islands to the United States
right away. So all the citizens were
down to the wharf with bands. the mil
itary. etc. The Butte men were h
only ones among the passengers who
looked like commissioners. and 80 the
Hawaiian dignitaries Immediately
seized hold of them. made speeches to
them and marched them up through
the streets OF Honolulu with a ban
in front of them and a band behind
them. Children dressed in red, white
and blue dresses strewed the ground
i'm front of their feet with flowers, and
threw wreaths about h necks OF
Messrs. Monteath and Newbro. There
were cheering crowds all the way up
to the capitol and the bands played
only American airs.
Messrs. Monteath and Newbro were
surely in a bad fix. They tried to ex-
plain, but the Hawaiian dignitaries re-
fused to listen.
How about this, Monty" asked
Newbro.
"Oh. let's take them in: it's the east
est way out of the scrape,' said Monty.
In they go. them" said Newbro.
So they formally annexed the islands
to the United States. The people gave
them banquets. paid all their expenses
and never asked to see their commits
sions. They wanted to make them
the first United States senators from
the islands. They refused. but said
they knew some people In Montana who
had wanted TO be United States sen
ators for a long time. and would ship
the Hawaiians a choice cargo of them.
On these conditions the Hawaiians
finally allowed the distinguished Butte
gentlemen to return to America.
