than the British ambassador. Mr. Bryce,
who will. I'm all probability. conclude this
year his term at this capital and who
comes next to the French ambassador In
length of residence Former Austrian
Ambassador Baron Hengelmuller was
lean of the corps off and on since 1902
He was frequently abroad the dates OF
reremonious occasions here. so that his
distinction in the line was far from con-
tprous. HE successor has not yet ar
lived here.
Absence from the capital illness, mourn
.ng and various other reasons prevented
several Of the diplomats or their wives
from attendance at the reception. The
Italian ambassador IL still abroad The
Countess Won Bernstorff Is recovering from
a recent severe illness. The minister of
chile has also been quite Ill and is not
vet able TO go about. The Argentine min

RECEPTION OF CITIZENS.

The reception of the general public fol-
lowed Among these were Indians from
the far reservations and a great part Of
resident Washington. The line was moved
as rapidly by the Presidents aids as
comfort permitted, that as many as
possible might shake hands with Mr.

the line passed him Mr.. Taft had a
hearty grasp and a pleasant smile for
each visitor Many hung for an in
slant to say a word or two to the
President, and in each instance the
President acknowledged the visitors
greeting with a word or a smile before
the pressing throng behind hurried him

LIQUOR LICENSE CASE
IN TECHNICAL TANCLE
Counsel for Grand Hotel Pro-
prietor to Take Advantage of
Wording of Courts Decree.

Judge Pugh of the Police Court said to-
day that he considered the mandate from
the Court of Appeals. intended to amend
the sentence imposed on the proprietor OF
the Grand Hotel. Edward j. Gardiner. t.
be enormously worded, i'm that il appears
to reverse the verdict Of guilty returned
by the Police Court jury instead of
amending the sentence imposed by Judge
Pugh.
#. On the first page of the mandate
which was received yesterday. n resume
of the Police Court record of the ease
is printed. Ii declares that Gardiner
was charged with dispensing liquor la
a girl under twenty-one years of age.
and adds--"Judgment guilty on the

Counsel Will Take Advantage.

Charles W. Darr. one OF the attorneys
for Gardiner, said today that he had
noticed the wording of the mandate
and that he most certainly would take
every advantage it offered his client
eff the mandate indicated one thing"
Mr. Darr said although meaning some
thing else nevertheless I should feel
compelled to do everything possible in
the interests of my client.
Another point we intend TO make"
Mr.. Darr continued. lis that the Court OF
Appeals ordered the revocation of Mr..
Gardeners license, when, as matter OF
fact. he had no license at the time the
court rendered Its verdict.
THE license expired on the first day Of
November. We shall apply to the
Equity Court for an ordnr restraining
any one from closing Mr.. Gardi-
ner's place of business until the
final settlement of this litigation In adj
dition to this, We intend to apply to the
Circuit Court tomorrow morning for a
writ of mandamus. which. IL we are sue
cessful, will enable Mr.. Gardiner to re-
open his place OF business, which was
closed yesterday.

Directs Verdict of Not Guilty.

Judge Pugh's contention is that this
seems to him to make the Court Of APP
peals in the Gardiner case really direct
a verdict Of not guilty.
Harry w. Hodges. clerk of the Court OF
Appeals, who drafted the mandate. ex-
planned to a Star reporter today that the
opinion of the upper court was to reform
the judgment of the Police Court only
i'm regard to the revocation OF the license
"The mandate and the appeal should
be considered together" Mr.. Hodges said.
THE Judgment of guilty was not re
versed BY Chief Justice Shepard. But, TO
protect the mandate from any wrong in
depreciation, ] will make any changes in
the wording of the mandate which might
be interpreted in the wrong way"
Mr. Hodges also said he intended TO
go over a copy of the mandate with
Judge Pugh in order that he might
understand the ground on
which the judge objects to the present
form of the mandate
