Vigorous Denials
in Court.

Worn at Point Iona
Explained.
Special Dispatch to Tn. Call.

SAN DIEGO, Jan. 5-Mrs. Katherine
Tingley had some sharp tits with Attor-
ney Shortridge to-day in the Tingley-
Times case and many of her denials Of
the charges made against her were
phrased in brisk words.
At the opening Of the court session Mrs
Emil H. Nereshiemer. wife of the chair
man of Mrs. Tingley's cabinet, was called
by the defendant. 1t is a part Of the al
legged libel that Mrs. Nereshiemer had
been required to eat at a table separately
from her husband and that she was not
permitted to enjoy his society. She was
not permitted to testify.
The defense then recalled Mrs. Tfngley.
same form of yesterday. her counsel read
introduced by the defendant. She denied
that she had been a magnetic healer or
that she had ever claimed that Nine.
Blavatsky and Mr.. Judge spoke through
her when she was in trance state.
Attorney Shortridge subjected Mrs.
Tingley to a sharp cross-examination as
to the orders referred to in previous evi-
dence as the Sons of the Rising Son and
the Daughters of the Rising Sun, at
tempting to show that they were sun
worshipers. Mrs. Tingley strenuously de-
MED that there was any part of the be
lief of the members of these organiza-
tions, saying that If they arose early and
went out to see the sun rise it was their
own personal affair. AS to the Greek
garbs worn, alluded to, she said that they
were worn at plays simply as costumes
and had no symbolic significance. An ad-
journment was taken at an early hour un-
til Monday.

SALINAS. Jan. 3.-All of the grim tes-

cause of the death of Charles Albrecht, the
ranch hand who was a victim of the muir

as to the identity OF the criminal, and a
verdict was rendered tonight declaring
that Albrecht ''came to his death at the
hands of persons unknown"
Mrs. Graves, who was injured by the
mysterious intruder, testified as to occur
rences up TO the time she was rendered
unconscious. She described the events of
the night of terror at her farmhouse, but
was unable to tell anything of value about

sage of December, 1870. President Grant
said: "As soon as l learned that a republic
had been proclaimed at Paris and that the
people Of France had acQuiesced in the
change. the minister of the United States
was directed by telegraph 70 recognize it
and to tender my congratulations and those
of the people of the United States" The
present republic of Brazil was recognized
without delay by President Harrison, who
said in his annual message of 1890: "Diplo-
matte relations were at once established
with the new government, but it was not
completely recognized until an opportunity
had been afforded TO ascertain that it had
popular approval and support. When the
course of events had yielded assurance of
this fact, no time was lost in extending to
the new government a full and cordial well
come into the family Of American common
wealths."
Existing circumstances fully justify
President Roosevelt in recognizing the in
dependence o. Panama and in establishing
diplomatic relations with the new govern
ment. No doubt Congress will ratify his
action and other powers will follow his
example.

NEW STATUS OF THE PANAMA
CANAL.

That the revolution in Panama puts an
entirely new phase on the Panama canal
question is very plain, but it is not so clear
what the outcome will be. The secession of
Panama from Colombia creates a situation
which. While it is undoubtedly now favor
able TO the United States in some respects,
IS by no means free from complications.
In the first place we may now count on the
bitter and INSCRIPTIONS hostility of the
Colombian government to the building of
the canal by the United States. Having
failed in her attempt to dictate terms to
this government regarding the construction
and ownership of the canal and having
played fast and loose Will the treaty for
months only to reject 1t finally, Colombia
now finds that she has lost a golden oppor-
tunity together with one of her states and
the Panama route with everything pertain
ing thereto. 1t does not require much
knowledge of human nature. especially of
Spanish-American nature, to know that the
Colombian government will be furious at
this turn of affairs and will do all in its
power to prevent Panama or the United
States from p~rofiting by il. How much she
can do in this direction remains to be seen.
The fact that the original concession to the
French Panama Canal Company was from
Colombia may give her vantage ground,
though II may prove that the concession
goes with the route, which now belongs to
Panama. The dispatches say the concession
will not suffer. This probably means that
it will be assumed and carried out by the
new Panama government. Whether they
would require a new contract with the
Panama Company or any action whatever
on its part is not known. The question of
title may nave to be gone over again, and
certainly a new treaty will AVE to be ne
gotiated with Panama In place of the one
rejected by Colombia. The settlement OF
these matters will involve delay, but they
do not seem to offer insuperable difficulties.
Their settlement will be facilitated by the
fact that the Panama Canal Company is
anxious TO close the deal with the United
States, and Panama is equally anxious to
have the canal built. 1t is quite possible
that under the new situation the United
States may be able to make even better
terms with Panama than those of the treaty
rejected by Colombia, though the Colom-
bian government will doubtless use every
effort to prevent any kind of a settlement.
