other Spanish families arrived in this

Several of the children and one of

of them, lad of seven, is suffering

Bogart said yesterday that the con-

he would therefore place the matter
before the supervisors

WASHINGTON, May 31.-The dis
tinct Rooseveltians in office are rapidly
dispensing to private life. There is
panic among them accordingly. They
are seeing the handwriting on the wall
at least. And yet, such change is
nothing more than was reasonably to
be expected. President Roosevelt grad
ualy eliminated the distinguished Me
Kinleyites.
AS matter of fact there is little
difference in the practises of Presidents
about putting men of their own type
and following into office. While a
President is the leader of his party,
he stands forth almost invariably as
the representative of some particular
faction of that party. He wants men
Of his own faith at the helm. 4 Demo
cratic President puts in Democrats, a
Republican President, Republicans. But
the cHange III tenure Is almost as GER
tain when Republican President sue
ceeds a Republican President.
Roosevelt was not abrupt in displac
ing the McKineiyites Of course he
came in as President for the term FOL
which Mckinley had been elected and
did not feel like asserting himself
about appointments, as does one who
had been elected in his own right. Taft
came in in his own right and therefore
has been at liberty to make his owl
selections. He has not FASTENED abou
displacing Roeseveltians but he has pro
eeeded so steadily and unerringly thai
incumbents are no longer cherishine
illusions about what is in store fol
them.
Natural as such a development is, il
is significant of Taft s intention to bt
President himself A President must
have a large body of loyal men through

loyal machine it was. Roosevelt knew
how to build up an organization and
how to maintain if.
President Taft started upon distinc-
tive policy in the choice of his cabinet.
Only two Of the men, who have ever
sat with him in the Roosevelt cabinets,
are around his own council table. One
of them is Secretary of Agriculture
Wilson, who came over from the fe-
Kinley administrations The other is
Secretary of the Navy Meyer, who has
been placed in the most difficult of
cabinet positions and is believed in
Washington to be making good. Ex-
Postmaster General X. ]. Wynne, dis
tinctly identified with the Roosevelt
administrations, was dropped out the
other day as Consul General at London.
Assistant Secretaries in the Depart
ments have been gradually displaced
and the axe is hanging over the heads
of others. This is not necessarily
reflection upon the retiring officials.
Most of them have been fairly efficient.
A few have not been. But there were
other men, more closely identified with
the Taft campaigns for nomination and
election. True, President Roosevelt
was the great foreman in that cam
paign and his lieutenants were on the
wafehtowers for Taft. But the new
President had his own workers in near

Order Is Refused.

He then asked for an order directing
that Maxine s safe be not opened until
Maxine was present, and instructing
the return of the papers and seal of
the Nippu Jiji Company, Ltd, which
were obtained according to Lightfoot,
'by force of arms and contrary to
law -
Judge Robinson replied that he had
no authority to make such an order,
and that it was entirely outside of his
jurisdiction in the case. Lightfoot re-
piled "that in civilized countries such
proceedings are not common, and in
sisted that his clients had ''constitu
tional right of protection
Attorney Anderson resumed his argu
ment on the contention that the hear
ing on the petition for the writ Of
habeas corpus could not be properly
held on a legal holiday, making the
point that while the issuance of the
writ was ministerial act, the hearing
was entirely of a judicial nature. He
cited a number of authorities bearing
on the question and was followed by
Lightfoot who insisted that a return
upon a writ of habeas corpus can be
made upon any day. He declared that
no difference was intended by the law
in dealing with holidays and Sundays,
and that the contention raised by An
derson was simply designed to befog
the issue.
Judge Robinson looked over the sec
ton of the Revised Laws of the Ter
ritory hearing upon the point, and
without hesitation denied the motion
for continuance on the holiday
ground.
Points Out Flaws.
The motion to quash the writ on a
number of grounds was next taken up,
Maxine and Negoro taking their places
with Lightfoot at the counsel IS table,
and Ballou proceeded to pick flaws in
the technical construction of the petit
tion for the writ as presented by Light
foot.
Judge Ballou declared that the pc
tition did not set forth the place of
Imprisonment of the petitioners, and
that it simply embodied collection of
conclusions of law, the ex-parte state
ments of Lightfoot. He eontended that
the allegation that Lightfoot IS clients
were not incareerated under a valid law
OF the territory ala not constitute any
grounds for their release and simply
raised point of law.
Lightfoot defended the sufficiency of
his petition, and stated that the OBJ
jections raised by Ballou were trifing
and did not affect the broad issues of
the case, which were, in effect, that
the five men had been taken into Gus
tody without due process of law and
that as far as the court was concerned
no reason had been advanced for their
detention -

The attempt TO secure the release of

was resumed before Circuit Judge Rob

signal failure. The hearing was begun
promptly at 1870 clock and lasted UNI

until 9 o clock this morning, at which
time it is probable that the cases will
be disposed of one way or the other.
When the five defendants, j. Sega,

entered the Judiciary building in the
custody of High Sheriff Henry and his

that during the early morning hours
Maxine s store was entered and the

asserted that Sega had been taken into

bird. thought Of the robin red breast Of
Europe. and endowed this newly-discov-
cred bird with the name known to them
