Most OF those present attended the
all-day conference at the library sat
urday and Sunday, and II is under
stood that another conference Is
PLANNED for tomorrow.
Concerning yesterdays meeting Mr..
Perkins said that il had been ar
ranged primarily for a discussion OF
the prospects of moving the grain and
cotton crops.
"A prompt movement Of grain and
cotton to the seaboard" he eddad,
"and its early loading aboard ships
for export means a great deal to the
present situation. indirectly because as
soon as our cotton and grain is loaded
we can draw against il, and thus re-
lieve the foreign exchange situation
materially"
At midnight William solomon. Isaac
Seligman and four others joined the
party I'm the library. These men came
from the Waldorf -Astroria, where the
directors of the Trust Company of
America has been in session for sew
eral hours. President Oakleigh Throne

been fitted out In elaborate style,
In addition to their regularly ac-
credited ministers To the United

been twelve days since Assistant At
torney General McHarg was called 10
Washington by wire, and up TO this
time no very definite Information as
TO the reason why he was called TO
Washington has been given to the
public. When II became known son
the afternoon Of che day that he left
for the national capital that he would
go that night. 1t was announced hN
some or the political Wiseacres that he
had been called back TO Washington
to explain matters In connection with.
the indictments which had been found
the day before. and IL was predicted
that he would not return. II was also
said that Assistant Attorney General
Gordon would leave IN a few days, and
that the land prosecutions would be
dropped, but Mr.. Gordon still re-
mains in santa Fe and there do not
appear to be any indications OF his
Intention to leave I'm the near future.
The grand jury which reasse mbled on
the 31st has adjourned from day to
day in view Of the fact that IL can
not sit longer than next Friday be-
cause Judge MeFie will leave for san
Juan county on Saturday to open
court there on Monday following, IL Is
likely that Mr. McHarg Will put In an
appearance within a day or two and
go on with the presentation Of cases
to the grand jury. 1t does not seem
probable that the grand jury would
be held here without having any busi-
ness in prospect. and some OF the peo-
pie who we're predicting ten days ago
that Mr.. McHarg would not come
back are sbeginning To wonder what

contempt proceedings viii be con-
fined to persons whom 1t Is alleged
have been too deeply Interested In
the deliberations OF the grand Jury.
Some OF the cases cited during rhe
argument Of the Alarid case cover
good deal Of ground. and 1t Is safe
to say that not only Will people re-

Jurors concerning matters under con-

.HARGIS INNOCENT
OFFOUL MURDER,
VERDICT OF JURY
Fcudist Judge Held Guiltless Of
Conspiracy in Murder Of
lanes Cockrill.

+ LEXINGTON. KY. May 23.-Almost
exactly three years after the shooting
Of Town Marshal Thomas Cockrill at
jackson verdict Of not guilty was
returned here to-day In the case Of
Judge James Hargis, the first OF those
who were jointly charged with that
murder, and another chapter In the IA
nous Brcathitt county feud annals was
concluded. On June 21, 1904, Cockrill
was shot in the courthouse at jack
son, dying later at Lexington, where
he was taken for medical ttention.
During the trial heveral witnesses
swore that Judge Hargis his brothers
and Sheriff Ed Callahan had entered
into murder conspiracy, promising
immunity to any one who would shoot
Cockrill, DR.. B. d. Cox and j. 3. Mar
cum, all three of whom have since been
killed. The defense, however, pre-
scented testimony tending to disprove
the conspiracy charge, and Judge Har-
gis. tcstifying on his own behalf, de-
MED all connection with the shooting.
Curt Jet, who confessed to killing
Marcum. for which he was given a
life-scntence, was witness against
Judge Hargis.
When the verdict was announced to-
day a great cheer arose from the
friends of Judge Hargis, who crowded
the courtroom, and 1t was necessary
for Circuit Judge Watts Parker to rar
repeatedly for order.
