JUDGE WILCOX TO HOLD NO
EXAMINATIONS.
While Grand Jury is in session-Jury
Says However That it viii Not Con-
slider New Cases.

Defendants i'm commlttal cases are
apt TO find themselves In the predica-
ment OF being between the devil and
the deep sea. Judge Wilcox announced
this morning that he did not propose Co
conduct any examinations OF defend
ants on committal cases, when the
grand jury was in session and the mat
ters could be laid before that body.
This decision would not be especially
hard on the defendants, were 1t not for
The fact, that the grand jury has an
nOunced that ii will consider no more
cases.
Judge Wilcox announced this ruling
in three cases. The first occurred in
the cases against . couple of japanese
who were alleged to have thrown an
empty oil can at a horse driven by Mrs.
Dr. Atcherey thereby endangering her
safety. The court expressed the deter
minatiOn not to bother with examina-
tons when the evidence could be laid
before the Grand Jury, so continuanees
were granted.
The other case was that against
Mary Bento charged with larceny in
the second degree. She was accused
Of stealing some gold rings, ear rings
and other articles of jewelry, intrusted
to her care last year. Charles Creigh-
ton and G. c. Biting appeared for the
defendant. During the course of the

The court expressed the opinion that
the evidence could be laid before the
grand jury as that body was in session.
A continuance was taken until Wednes-
day morning.
we shall demand" said Mr.. Creigh-
ton that our client be given an exam
lnation by this court. Does the court
refuse to give such examination? I
would like my motion to this effect
to be entered on the records of this
court"
"You make your motion in writing
and file it, sir" replied Judge Wilcox.
1T will be time enough on Wednesday
morning to determine whether there
will be an examination or not"
well, this is a new rule" answered
Mr.. Creighton. referrino to the admoni-
ton to file a written motion.
"Oh new things are happening all the
time" observed the court.
AS a matter OF fact, it is doubtful if
these cases can be heard by the Grand
Jury. That body has, ii is stated, re-
fused to- consider anything new so it
looks as If the three defendants would,
after all, have to fall back upon the dis
trict court and be given examinations.
Beside the Grand Jury will probably
adjourn on Wednesday, so there will he
no chance for it to consider the cases
which came up this morning in the po-

CAPTAIN soDERGRENs MOVE FOR
A PARDON.
Remanded TO Jail This Morning to
Serve His Time-Baird Made a
Protest.


After a long legal fight and an effort
Co secure a pardon from the President,
Captain n. O. Sodergren of the bark
Hesper is now serving his time In Oahu
jail. lie appeared in court this morn
ing. represented by S. M. Bauou, and
asked that he be committed, as the re-
mittur from the Circuit Court of APP
peals of the Ninth Circuit, San Fran
cisco had been received. showing the
dismissal OF the appeal. J. J. Dunno ap-
peared for the Unitd States.
Let the prisoner be remanded to
serve the balance of his time, dating
from October 3, the day i'm which he
appeared and offered TO give himself
up" said Judge Estee. When a man
comes 1000 miles TO surrender himself
and cannot do so because the authori-
ties are not ready he ought to be given
the benefit Of the time lost by the au-
thorities. He is entitled to be allowed
the 81 days already served"
Sodergren was sentenced TO six
months hard labor. for assault on sea-
man between here and Newcastle. His
mate was sentenced with him, and
served his time. The captain, however,
made a fight on the Mainland, going to
the Ninth Circuit court of Appeals, af-
ter some delay in being admitted to
bail, during which he served the 81 days
now allowed him.
While Sodergren was on the coast
news came to the United States Attor-
ney here that he was appealing to the
President for a pardon. Baird wrote
the following letter on the subject, un-
der date of August 81:
"The President, Washington d. c.: I
have been informed that one Frank o.
Sodergren, a sea captain who was re-
Gently convicted in the United States
Court here for assauting a seaman on
his ship, is about to make application
for pardon. | wish to suggest that to
my mind there is no ground on which to
base the application. and ! respectfully
ask that I may be given opportunity to
be heard in opposition, If the request be
made.
Your obedent servant,
JOHN C. BAIRD,
United States Attorney for Hawaii"
The reply came from j. S. Early
Smith, Pardon Attorney of the Depart
ment of Justice. 1t enclosed a copy of
the rules for applications for pardon,
under which such applications are al
ways referred to the United States At
torney of the district in which convic-
tion was had, for report. The views OF
the trial Judge are also asked for. Spe-
cial attention was directed to rule a.
under which there was evidently very
little chance for the application in the
| Sodergren case to ever reach the Presi-
dent, judging by Biard's letter on the
subject. The rule is as follows:
when both the Attorney and the
Judge advise against the application, OF
when recommendation is made by one
and that is adverse, the papers are not
sent to the President, except in capl-
| tai cases, or upon his request, but wher
/ al aH HNrig In, Of Ia
| ton the papers are submitted to the
| President"
! Sodergren was duly taken to Oahu jai
| this morning by Captain Henry after
! the adjournment of the court. He has
| about A months to serve.

VICTIMS OF PICKPoCKETS.
EpwOrth Leaguers, En- Route to San

in Colorado.

Glenwood Springs, Col, July 15.--
The thoroughly-organized gang of
pickpockets operating at Colorado
Springs is responsible for a party of
about twenty Epworth Leaguers be-
coming stranded here. Men and wom-
en- alike have been robbed, not only
of every cent they had with them, but
of railroad tickets as well, and unless
the railroads will issue tickets back
home on their proof of having pur-
chased and paid for rides to- San Fran
cisco and back they will be compelled
to ask aid from the county authori-
ties.
In at least ten instances thieves even
secured their victims trunks on the
stolen baggage checks.
Among those robbed are DIR. j. II.
Wilson, wife and daughter and Mrs.
II. r. Harrington, of Dover, Del; DR..
Wilson's wallet, containing tickets for
the party, drafts on San Francisco
banks and baggage checks, being
stolen in the crush at the depot in

ger agent of the Denver & Rio Grande

Her Attorneys are Preparing to Car

San Francisco, July 15.-The attor-

been granted a new trial by the state
supreme court on the charge of muir
dering Mrs. John Z. Dunning, of Della
ware, are preparing to carry her case
to the United States supreme court.
They will file a petition in the state
court for writ of habeas corpus. 1t
is expected that the application will
be denied, in which event the case will
be carried to the United States SUI
preme court on a writ of error. In
the petition for a writ of habeas cor
pus two new points on the question of
jurisdiction will be raised. First, that
the sending of a box of poisoned
candy through the mails which caused
the death of Mrs. Dunning and her
sister, Mrs. Deane, was not a crime
in this state; second, that the cOnsti-
tuition of the United States prohibits
the trial of an accused person except
in the state where the crime was actu-
ally committed.
