Stensland and the prisoner was hur-

presence After the conference Healy
said:
"Stensland made a full confession OF
everything connected with the affairs

acts and of the acts of others. What
he has revealed makes the bank affair
less dark for himself.

shaken with emotion and he kept a

Mrs Inga Sandberg, as he left the
courtroom. and after having had din

day who complained of the violences
daily committed by members Of the

that the preservation of order was q

WEBER HOPEFUL ON
EVE OF DOOM.
spEcrAa DISPATCH TO THE CALL.

FOLSOM Sept. 26.-Adolph Weber
spent a most comfortable and enjoy
able evening He played chess with
his good friend, DR.. Gladding, the
prison physician. They waged a keen
contest apd the condemned matricide
occasionally chuckled in triumph A
warm cotnraderie has sprung up be-
tween the two and Weber was de-
lighted when the doctor agreed to play
with him until midnight.
At 9 o'clock the chess game was in
terrupted by the appearance of Acting
Warden Cochrane. The opening of the
cell door revealed the hideous shape
of the gallows In the darkened cor
ridor without. Tomorrow is the day
set for the young prisoners execu-
tion.
No word has come from the Gov
ernor, and it looks as IL there is no
help for you," announced the bluff cap
tain of fthe guard who is in charge of
the prison during the absence of War
den Yell in the East.
That's where / differ from YOU. :,
spoke up the youth cheerfully, and he
at the same time bent himself over a
problem of the chessboard again
There was no note of hesitation. no
sign of quaver. Instead the voice
was strong with assurance. Weber's
manner indicated that he did not want

all points upon which no agreement
was reached to arbitration of the
American commissioners. The assem-
bly, directed that Secretary Taft be
requested to notify the Liberals of this
action of the Moderates, to arrange for
the appointment of q similar committee
by the Liberals and to fix a time and
place for the meeting.
1t was agreed that at the extraordi-
nary session of Congress called for next
Friday the resignation of President
Palma would be tabled pending these
negotiations. with the hope of obviat-
ing the necessity of his leaving Office.
It was the ultimatum issued by Taft
and Bacon that brought the Moderates
to agree to those conciliatory methods.

farad with

his enjoyment of the chess game inter-
fered with
Monstrous as was his crime in taking
the lives of father. mother sister and
brother equally nonstrous is his char
acter as well as when the moose is
dangling overhead. Not thought OF
the morrow gives him concern. His
supper tonight was eaten with relish.
He wanted to know IL political affairs
were shaping we'll for Bryan's nomina-
ton for the Presidency. Always of
serious temperament, his spirits were
genuinely buoyant tonight The death
watches say they have never before
seen such disregard.
IT don't fear death; it is only a long
sleep. no different from nights uncon-
sciousness except that it is longer" de-
clared the phflosophic murderer in con-
versation yesterday.
Attorney May of Auburn brought
with him when he visited the con-
demned youth this morning Attorney
Tuttle, who had pleaded with the Gov
ernor for another reprieve.
You may hear good news before
night" said the lawyer.
Weber was perfectly confident
throughout the day that he would be
reprieved before nightfall.
The prison authorities looked for a
breakdown when the night came with
out news from Sacramento, but their
expectations were not realized. Weber
was as strong as ever with assurance
that the good news would be forth
coming in the morning
The boy will have none of religious
consolation
Il don't need it, he said.
Protestant minister and priest
were turned away unceremoniously.
II have absolutely no statement to
make" was his response to newspaper
men.
weber will step on the trap in re-
stored health and with nine pounds
added to his weight. He has had much
enjoyable diversion in chess playing
with the good fellow" as he calls DR.
Gladding.
At midnight Weber had beaten DR.
Gladding at four games of chess and
declared his success to be an absolute
dent of reprieve in the morning. He
was yawning and preparing for bed
when the doctor left him.
Attorney May was accompanied on
his visit this morning by F. S. Stephens,
the attorney in fact for the condemned
man. The prison officials say Weber
signed over his property to Stephens,
and asked, the attorney to come in the
morning and prepare a will fer him to
sion. He says that a communication was
expected from the Governor and that
Weber signed some papers to straight
en- out his affairs before he became
civilly dead, as would be the case If
Governor Pardee commuted his sem
tence.
About 10000 is all Weber has of the
$37, 900 worth of property he inherited
from the father he slew. About se5.-
600 has gone to attorneys and defense
expenses. 1t looks as if there will be
scramble among the Auburn attor-
neys for the remaining $4,000.
No one is giving any concern to the
burial of the remains Of the condemned
man. Acting Warden Cochrane looked
for his solicitous friends and lawyers
TO make some arran gements for de-
cent interment, but at a late hour to-
night he decided that some coavicts
must be sent out in the morning to
dig a grave on the hill, where lie the
friendless convict dead.
