health officers of the United States

NO SNAP JUDGMENT.
Attorney General Knox Will Weigh
Evidence Against Humphreys,
Especial to the Advertiser.)


WASHINGTON, d. G.. Aug. 24.-The
case agains, Judge A. S. Humphreys,
accused of unbecoming and harsh con-
duct on the territorial bench, is drag
ginS along. Attorney General Knox
granted two interviews to Judge Hum
phreys, when he was here some time
ago. and also has granted interviews to
Mr.. Frederick w. Hankey, the repre-
sentative of the Hawaiian Bar Asso-
citation, who is still guest at the Eb-
lbitt In the absence of formal charges
| the Attorney General grew somewhat
impatient of the proceedings, and Judge
Humphreys went away to New York
and subsequently to Chicago to await
| the decision. There is no doubt the
delay in presenting the charges has ma
terially injured the Bar Association S
case.
| Mr. Hankey said today that he eX-
poets the formal charges, which he un-
derstands will fill a book of over 3oC
lpages, will arrive in Washington some
time next week. Il believe that the At
ltorney General is disposed more favor
ably towards us than he was,' said Mr.,
Hankey today. Il have refrained from
pressing the case lately till the papers
and proofs could be made up and for
warded to me. You see ! left imme-
