Young Langley says that he tired
of his studies in the Chicago high

coming here he looked up a cousin,

CALLING GRAND JURY IS
UP TO JUDGE P0|NDEXTER

Up to noon today Judge Poindexter
had given no indication of what his
opinion would be in regard to the
calling of a grand jury to investigate
the purchase of the Decarie crema-
tory by the city and the muddle
growing out OF the charges of County
Commissioner Connolly. that a graft
existed in the purchase of county
supplies and the counter charge that
Connolly Is riding on q pass and
charging up railroaod fare.
The general belief Is that Judge
Poindexter will yield to the pressure
brought to bear and issue a call for a
grand jury some time next week.
For week past efforts have been
made to have one of the Judges call
grand jury. Judge KEENAN,. when
approached, refused to discuss the
question at all. and Judge Huneke,
asked to issue CALL declared he
knew of nothing to warrant such ac-
tion.
Judge Poindexter made his first ap-
pearance In court this morning and
was unable to spare time enough to
devote to the question other than to
confer with Judge Huneke.

year each for expenses.
The old commissioners admitted
that they turned in the flat $25 ac-
count each month regardless of ex-
penses incurred, but Mr.. Connolly has
been turning in an itemized account
for his meals, railroad fare, etc.
1t developed that Mr.. Connolly paid
his stage fare from Waverly to Fair
Held. but used pass from Fairfield
to Spokane. This Mr.. Connolly adj
mitted to be fact and, based on this
admission, the tall tower delegation
of the county board sought to make
out a criminal case against the man

Prosecuting Attorney Barnhart will
frame an opinion to be presented to
the board next Tuesday.
1t is understood that the opinion
will not take cognizance of any alleg-
ed criminality. but will merely pass
upon the question of what the county
commissioners are entitled to under
the construction of the law regarding
expenses.
The calling of grand Jury will
be welcomed by the people who have
long suspected the existence of graft
in both the city and county admin
istration
The Spokane press. [volume] (Spokane, Wash.) 1902-1939, 1905-06-03

Prosecuting Attorney Barnhart this
morning stated that it would be up to
Judge Poindexter, as judge of the
criminal court, to decide whether a
grand jury should be called.
"The superior court has the ex-
elusive power to call grand jury"
said MIR, Barnhart. "The prosecuting
attorney has no more power than any
private citizen, although as an Of
flcial his word would have weight"
The general opinion among the Of
fcials and attorneys is that Com
missioner Connolly has not done any
thing criminal in putting in his ex-
pense account and that If n wrong
has been done 1t has been through
word expenses" For this reason
the mistaken construction OF the
not much is expected to result from
the attempt to even up" with the
commissioner who exposed the graft
In the purchasing of county supplies.

Arao spent yesterday and last night
In comparative quiet Four of his
countrymen visited him last night
and stayed for over an hour The
visitors have been Christianized and
they made an effort to convert the
little murderer, but without success.
Arao was in a happy frame of mind
and occasionally broke into laugh
at some remark. Arao retired at
1880 last night and was sound
asleep when the death watch woke
him at $3.50 this morning. He hoped
out of bed and smilingly greeted
Warden KEGS. He refused to eat any
breakfast, merely drinking a cup of
coffee before starting for the scat
fold.
Yesterday afternoon Arao wrote a
long letter to his mother In Japan,
but he exhibited no sorrow as he
turned the missive over to the death
watch. On the scaffold the prison
officials worked swiftly and nothing
occurred to mar the proceedings.

Henry Arao murdered Sam Chong
In the latter's bedroom at the Chong
home, 725 Main avenue, early in the
morning of December 20.
There were five stabs with a knife
in Chong's head and dozen gashes
on his body.
Chong was in bed when attacked
by the murderer and his wife was in
the kitchen adjoining. Chong fought
hard for his life and struggled out
of bed, being found dead on the
floor
Arao denied that he was in love
with Mrs. Chong and declared that
Chong was prosecuting him in order
to collect a debt.
The murderer escaped, but was
caught later by country constable.
Conviction followed an early trial
and, although efforts were made by
charitable people to carry his case to
the supreme court, nothing resulted.
Arao could understand but little
England and never appeared to realize
that he was on trial for his life.

RAIN SPOILED
FLOTO SHOW

Rain interfered with the attend
ance at the Floto circus last night
and a reckless cutting of the program
interfered with the enjoyment of the
hundreds who braved the storm to
witness the performance.
It was a poor return of the show
management to the people who went
out in the wet to see what had been
advertised as a good thing.
The acts put on were fairly good
and one or two were excellent, but
so many numbers were omitted that
the whole show was over by 9:20
o'clock.
The. afternoon performance was
well attended and the full program
was hugely enjoyed.
But the abbreviated night bill made
no friends for the Floto shows.

afternoon. The team owners asked
