Johnson
Denied
The Crime
EVIDENCE THIS MORNING TEND
THE CONFESSION.

The confession of Frank Johnson,
strengthened very greatly by evidence
given before Judge Robinson in the ef-
fort of the defense to have it kept from
the jury, was allowed to go in this
morning. Deputy Sheriff Oscar Cox
continued is testimony, telling of how
Johnson, on the Friday morning fol-
lowing the killing, knelt in his cell and
said God help me- l murdered Simeon
Wharton"
Several witnesses were called by
Harrison to search into the method by
which the confession was obtained.
Some sensational reports have been in
circulation of cruelties practiced upon
the defendant, but they were not made
good. The only time they were refer
red to was when Harrison asked Sheriff
Brown whether any electrical appara-
tus" was used on Johnson. Brown re-
piled that there was none. The de-
Tense expected, it is said, to show that
Johnson was tortured by electricity,
but strong accumulation of evidence
this morning appeared to shut out the
possibility of such a proceeding.
Sheriff Brown testified to having two
interviews with Johnson on the day be-
fore the confession, in company with
Chester Doyle, at both of which the
defendant denied that he had commit
ted the crime. Brown said that many
times Johnson was questioned and that
he repeatedly denied knowing anything
about it.
The other witnesses, including the
jailer who had the only key and who
admitted Brown and Doyle, all testified
substantially that there was no i'll
treatment Of Johnson. The jailer and
another native, who saw Johnson af-
ter Brown and Doyle left, said he was
''maikai" at that time.
Cox during his testimony told in great
detail how Johnson had explained the
crime to him. once more the jury
was taken through the horrible scene,
as Cox told how Johnson had led him
over the ground and related the story
of how he killed, mutilated and buried
Simeon Wharton.

LINDSAY ALSO FOLLOWS THE
POLICY OF FORCING THE LAW

Judge Lindsay this morning called
the civil calendar Of the circuit court
setting cases for trial by jury. He was
just as stern as De Bolt in insisting
that trials must come off according to

point during the session. THE court
will insist that these cases be set and

AS usual, attorneys were in numerous
cases either unready, had other engage

witnesses. Lindsay, however, was
exceedingly unwilling to grant con-
tinuances, and he dismissed three cases
because the parties did not answer

GALILEE REACHES
TANNING ISLAND
CARNEGIE SURVEY VESSEL IS
MAKING LONG CRUISE ABOUT
PACIFIC OCEAN.

The brigantine Galilee has started
on her extensive cruise of the Pacific
ocean for the purpose Of determining
the magnetic deviation of the COM
pass. She came to Honolulu some
months ago on such a trip and after
cruising about the islands went to San
Diego California. She left San Diego
on March and arrived at Tanning
Island March 3O She was reported
arriving at that place by the S. s..
Moana which arrived at Honolulu this
morning, from Tanning and the colo
nies.
The Galilee made Tanning the day
before the Moana arrived at that island
port and was standing off and on. The
Galilee is to go to the westward after
leaving Tanning island. Her itinerary
will eventually take her to islands in
the south Pacific, the Philippines, up
along the coast of Asia and across the
Pacific by way of the Aleutian Islands
to America. She is sent out by the

Here is a scientific description Of
the kind of maniac Frank Johnson is,
in the view of the defense in his trial
for the murder of Simeon Wharton, the
description being a quotation from an
authority on medical Jurisprudence,
read to the jury in the opening state
ment of defendants attorney Harrison
this afternoon:
"The last and most important form
of moral maniac that will be noticed
consists in a morbid activity of the
propensity to destroy, when the indi-
Vidual without provocation or any
other rational motive, apparently in the
full possession of his reason and often
times, in spite of his most strenuous ef-
fort to resist, imbrues his hands in the
blood of others, oftener than otherwise,
of the children of his own affections,
of those. in short, who are most dear
and cherished around him. The facts
here alluded to are of painful frequency
and the gross misunderstanding of
their true nature almost universally
prevalent, excepting among a few in
the higher walks of the profession leads
to equally painful results. In the alb
sence Of any pathological explanation
Of the horrid phenomenon, the mind
seeks i'm vain. among secondary causes,
for rational mode of accounting for
it, and is content to resort to that time

Harrison said he would introduce evi-
dence to bring Johnson i'm the class of
maniacs described by the writer of
these words, DIR. I. Ray, author of a
work on the subject. The attorney
said he would show that Johnson had
exhibited the symptoms of the mania
referred to, and that evidence would
also be adduced to show that the crime

eNy w OOys
Chicago. Aug. .27.-The Standard OIL
company has taken steps toward &C.
Quiring ownership OF all the principal
distilling plants in the United States,
according to special dispatch from
Peoria, ILL.,. to the Tribune. A confer
euse was held Friday last In Chicago
between representatives OF the distil-
ling interests and the Standard Oil
company.
A price has been set ON every dis
tillery in Peoria and indications are
that deal will be Effected and the
plants will pass into the hands Of the
Standard soon.
1t is said the price asked was con-
sidered too high by the Standard Oil
people and the latter threatened II
suitable terms could not be reached to
build distilling houses Of their own.
The chief reason Of this action %
the part Of the Standard Oil company
was the recent passage Of the alcohol
bill by congress. Experts employed by
the Rockefeller interests. after expert
menting, reported their product cannot
be manufactured cheaply enough to
make 1t serious competitor Of gaso-
line, but that 1t could be used In the
manufacture OF mercerixed cotton and
other fabrics and would be an extreme
ly favorable product to control.
