SHOULD
DECIDE MATTER
Sane View of California Judge
Concerning Los Angeles
Recall Election.

Los Angeles, March 4.-In his decision,
rendered yesterday. refusing TO grant on
Injunction to prevent the holding of a
recall election to choose a successor TO
Mayor Harper, Judge Bordwel sets forth
that the theory OF compliments against
the recall is that by the resignation Of for
mer Mayor Harper the objects of the re-
call election have been attained, and that
the city council having appointed q sue
cessor 10 the former <or, there IS no
further need for an election. and that the
people have no right TO name a successor
to Harper since the city council already
has done So Judge BOrdweu says that II
is clearly contemplated by the recall sec
ton of the charter that the successor to
him whom the recall proceedings seek o
remove from office, shall be elected BY
the people. and that the court should rot
lay down ruling denying this right. Fur
Their ne says. the judiciary must not in
teTfere with the political branch Of the
government Moreover. any party ques-
tiouing the result Of the election has his
remedy in law.
Therefore the defendants demurrer to
the complaint I'm each of the two actions
brought is allowed and the action dis
missed.
An appeal with but two days 10 perfect
il in will be almost an impossibility.

PREFERS DEAD
TO THE LIVING
Widow of Murdered Man Is
Brought Up for Hearing
on Ground of Insanity.

Whether or not Mrs. Hattie Hunter
Buetler is insane remains to be de-
teTmined by the department of the Dis
trict court over which Judge Lewis
presides. Yesterday Mrs. Buetler was
before the court on complaint of her
daughter, Mrs. Mary Maycroft 1t was
the testimony Of Mrs. Maycroft that
her mother was given to the habit of
eommuning with the spirits, that she
was morose and wanted only to dwell
alone. But. said Mrs. Maycroft this
was inpracticabie owing to the fact
that the mother insisted on wandering
about. and was not infrequently found
in dark and isolated places, sucn as Va
cant lots.
Mrs. Buetler insists on being Mrs.
Hunter, for the reason she evidently
does not believe in the guilt of murder
that attached to Hunter when, four
years ago, he confessed the crime. The
woman was the wife of Fred Buetler
an umbrella mender. and the divorced
wife of man named Abe Hunter One
night in 1897. so the story runs. Buet-
Ter was murdered by three men, who
employed the most inhuman and afro
cioUs mean in accom- lishing their end.
They choked the unfortunate umbrella
man 10 a state of suffOcatiOn which
proved fatal with fragments of the
covers which he put on the skeleton
frames of the articles which ne re-
stored. As a reward for their industry
they secured $1,000. it was said This
sum had been carefully boarded by the
frugal Buetler.
The horror of the tragedy disaT-
ranged the mind Of the woman. so runs
the tale. The result of it all was that
she was advised by the spirits never TO
reveal anything that happened in con-
nection with the gruesome affair. IF, in
deed. she knew anything about it.
The confession of Hunter q few
years ago was not substantiated by the
states attorneys and the reOpened trial
failed of result so far as conviction
was concerned. Hunter was released
Meanwhile the woman has been liV-
ing an unnatural life. according to the
story of her daughter, and it was at
last deemed best to ser her to the
hospital at Provo. if ial action
were such as to put pi- into ef-
feet. Mrs. Hunter lives alone I'm a
house in the vicinity of Tenth South
and Eleventh West
The hearing will be resumed at 10
o'clock this forenoon.
