TAFT AND JOHN
HAYS HAMMOND
President Elect DESTROYS of
Getting information From
Mining Engineer.

Augusta, Ga, Dec. 21.-President-
elect Taft conferred today with john
Hays Hammond, president of the Ma
tional League of Republican clubs, ana
received suggestions which will be given
serious consideration respecting new
fields of future usefulness for that or
ganization. Mr.. Hammond arrived here
on the invitation of Mr.. Taft, who saIG
there were many things he wanted 10
talk over with the eminent mining en-
gineer, Including political conditions
and appointments
Mr. Hammond WAS emphatic in say
ing that he WAS not candidate foE
either the cabinet. the diplomatic corps
or any other position. If he mad any
ambition whatever he said, il would
be TO head d department of pubic
works, if such department should be
established.
In the organization of such. he be-
lieves, his engineering experience would
be valuable in perfecting "A branch OF
service having for its purpose the con-
seryation of the natural resources and
their administration.
Invitation to Knox.
Mr. Taft said tonight he had invited
Senator Knox to come TO Augusta
within the next two or three weeks,
if he could at which time a cabinet
conference would be held. Mr.. Tart
said he believed he was beginning 20
see where so many cabinet rumors came
from. The publishing of a name with
the Incorporation that its possessor WAS
being seriously considered for the cabi
net he found has followed the sugges-
ton of that name to him by some one
interested in the person. He aided
that he still believed that it would take
more than the suggestion OF name
and its publication 10 build The cabine;.
At dinner tonight the members of the
Taft family were the guests OF the
Country club. Mr.. Taft is vexed at
his golf score. He refuses 10 tell what
it is, but lays the blame to the sand

LIDDY HEARS FROM
INDIGNANT JURORS

Indignant objection was made by
court officials and jurors to the ac-
cusations and criticisms of the verdict
in the Wynne case made by Joseph L.
Liddy in his letter to Governor Frear
asking him to intercede with the Pres
ident to reprieve or commute the SEN
tence of Wynne.
Liddy was hailed before the high
court of Indignation in District Al
torney Breckons office yesterday
where more than half the jury that
convicted Wynne gathered, together
with Deputy District Attorney w. T.
Rawlins who tried the case. They said
things to Liddy. They said them SO
vehemently that long before they were
through Liddy declared he didn t
mean it at all; that the verdict was
entirely justified by the evidence, and
almost that if he had been on the
jury he would have brought in the
same verdict himself. The jurors told
Liddv they objected to being held up
as bloodthirsty monsters simply be-
cause they did their sworn duty.
Judge Dole, who, however, was not
concerned in the standing up of Liddy,
says that the jury were entirely within
the evidence and the instructions i
bringing in the verdict that they did.

ATTORNEY HARRISON
FILES PEACE BOND

The police court troubles of T. Mil
ner Harrison, the attorney, came to an
end yesterday morning when he came
into court and filed a $3.50 bond to
keep the peace. This ended the action
against him, and was an admission of
the charge, but it prevented the TAX
ing of testimony and bringing out in
open court the nature of the trouble
in which Harrison had become ip-
volved. Harrison brought the follow
ing letter to the Advertiser Office last
night:
Editor Advertiser:-Th Bulletin of
this evening states | was ordered to
put up a bond to keep the peace to-
ward some woman and her numerous
family. A number of stories-too
absurd to sustain an action for libel
have appeared in that paper recently,
concerning myself and this alleged
woman.
| can only say that I know of no
woman by the name mentioned; that
| have never been charged with any
offense against any woman; that [
have never been ordered to keep the
peace towards any woman, or given a
bond to that effect; and that if any
one is curious about it, at least so ia
as Honolulu is concerned. he may as
certain the truth of this statement by
examining the Court records.
Yours truly,
T. NJ. HARRISON.

Editor Advertiser-With reference
to the article in your paper of even
date, referring to my action in trying
to secure reprieve for John Wynne,
| wish to correct the statement that I
made to the effect that "everyone in
court was astonished at the verdict
rendered by the jury, even Z. S. Prose
cutting Attorney Rawlins.
Being excited at the time of writing
'e letter, as any man pleading for
the life of a fellow being naturally
would be, I unintentionally omitted to
state, what | only intended, that it ap-
peared to me that everyone was aston
ished, which apparently may have been
superinduced by the intense interest
| have taken in the case, and | want
it to be distinctly understood that I
did not mean to convey any lnsinua-
tions or criticisms either against At
tornev Rawlins or the gentlemen of the
Jury. who are all of irreproachable
character and citizenship, and [ sim
cerely trust that this explanation will
tend towards eradicating any erro
sneous impression that may have en-
tered the mind of any person regard
ing nv letter of thanks to Governor
w. F. Frear.
Sincerely.

FOSTER PARENTS
RETAIN THE CHILD
Little Elizabeth Harvey Still
Remains With Her
Protectors.

Little Elizabeth Harvey is to remain
in the custody and control of those who
took her when she was neglected and
almost naked and have taken care of
her since as tenderly as if she were
their own.
Judge De Bolt yesterday dismissed
the writ of habeas corpus by which Mer-
eedes Briggs sought to secure the child
she claims as hers, but which she aban-
doned at birth, and has never done any
thing for since. He remanded the child
into the custody of Frank R. Harvey
and his daughter, who have taken care
of her for the past four years and are
very much attached to her.
According to the testimony, the
mother, a single woman, consented that
her babe should be given away at its
birth in order to save herself from the
scandal and shame that she would suf
fer if her maternity were known. The
child was taken and left on a rubbish
heap along Ala Moana, native woman
named Maikai having been previously
informed of it and taking the child
She cared for the child for about two
years, when she died, and left it to her
niece, who cared for it as best she could
though, through her poverty, that was
badly enough.
Frank R. Harvey saw the child, neg
leeted and almost naked, and suggested
to his daughter that she provide some
colthes for it. This she did, and, becom-
ing attached to the little one, it's Gus
tody was given to her. The little one
has been cared for in Harvey s house
hold as one of the family for the past
four years, and it is only now that any
thing regarding its maternity has been
disclosed. The mother, though it seems
now that she has known the identity
of her child for some time, has never
done anything for it nor seemed to want
it until the present. BY habeas corpus
proceedings she has sought to secure it.
The case has been on hearing for two
days before Judge De Bolt, and yester-
day he decided that the child should re-
main with the foster parents, who have
shown real parental love for it.
