T|LLMAN'S HEARING
WAS CONTINUED
His Attorneys Say Two Important
Witnesses Will Be Unable to
Be Present Until the July
Term Of Court.
IT IS ALLEGED THAT CON-
zALES MADE THREATS

Columbia, s. c., April S.-Following
yesterdays indictment by the grand
jury of former Lieutenant Governor
Tillman, for the murder of Editor Con
zales in this city last January, and the
fixing of today for the arraignment of
the prisoner, the counsel for the de-
fense this morning asked for contin-
uance of the case until the July term
of court and the request was granted.
The grounds upon which the contin-
uance was requested by the defense
were the absence Of two witnesses who,
the defense allege, are of great import
ance to the case. 1t is stated that one
of the witnesses, Captain W. j. White,
is expected to testify that Mr. Gonzales
went to the state house before the
tragedy and inquired for Tillman, stat
ing that he had once made Tillman
'show the white feather and would do
so again." The defense also claims
that a Miss Roper. trained nurse who
claims that she had heard Gonzales bit
terly denounce Tillman could not be |
present for testimony today.

JUDGE POPE At WORK.
Sentenced a Ladron Chieftain to Death
Heavy Blow to the Lawless Element.

A recent issue of the Manila Ameri
can published at Manila, Island O.
Luzon gives an interesting account o.
the situation in the Island of Layte ant
mentions the work of Judge w. H. Pope
of the court of the first instance, who is
we'll and favorably known in this city
The American says:
Supervisor of Fiscals, Trent, return
ed from Samar and Leyte this morning
| where he spent one month investigat-
ing the affairs of the two islands.
"Mr. Trent reports conditions on Sa-
mar and Leyte exceptionally quiet. The
ladrones are on the run, the sentences
received by the captured outlaws hav-
ing frightened the others so that those
who are remaining in the field are not
in evidence.
"Simon de Pardera ladone, political
agitator, Americana amigo presidente
of Jaranguan, on the Gandara river,
and notorius ruler of the lawless ele-
ment Of Samar, was arrested and was
tried by Judge Pope. His arrest was a
big surprise and a heavy blow to the
lawless element in that section of the
country. He offered $4,000 to any Am
erican who would defend him at trial.
His remarkable control over ladrone
bands was due to his unlimited wealth,
which he very freely gave out for the
purchase of supplies and arms with
which to carry on the lawless work. His
guilt was manifested by the evidence
brought out in the trial. There is no
question but what death or long term
sentence will be given him.
