Expect to Return Direct.
There was an understanding today
among members of the presidential
party that the chief executive and
Mrs. Harding would return direct TO
Washington, leaving San Francisco
as soon as the physicians would give
their permission for the President to
begin travel. The route east was ex-
pected to be via Ogden, Utah: Omaha,
Neb., and from Chicago to Washing
ton.
Some of the Presidents advisers
yesterday indicated their belief that
1T would be best for him. during his
visiting with Mr.. william wrigley. jr..
on Catalina Island. off the Southern
California coast. Mr.. WrigIey has
asked Secretary Christian to take the
invitation to Mr.. Harding as soon as
the chief executive can be talked to
about such things. but it was under
stood later that there was no pos
sibility that the trip to Catalina
would be made.

Recovery Believed Sure.
The President seemed certain of
recovery barring improbable deveI-

illness or the equally improbable in

physicians on the Presidents case.
still was standing by his statement
of last night that the crisis had been
passed and that the President Is,
well on the road to recovery" Added
to this was the declaration from an
authoritative source that the only
reason for concern was because the
patient was the President of the
United States and not because of
any new symptoms or likelihood of
any.
Since we have our toxin we'll

summarized the situation in an in

Feeling Shared by All.
This feeling was manifestly shared
by all of the other physicians and
by members of the Presidents imme-
diate party. Mrs. Harding. who has
been by the side of her husband
throughout this fight. as she has
been in all struggles he has waged,

has been won, for he was quoted by
Secretary Work as having said late
yesterday:

The Presidents own feelings were
expressed at a time when his condi-
tion was not so satisfactory as 1t
became as the evening wore on and
in turn grew into the night. He was
said to be extremely cheerful when
he awakened at O'Clock last

MUNICIPAL court WORKS
RELAYS TO HAN DIE jam LIQUOR
CASES At LONG SESSION WE'D.

There was such a jam of liquor
cases to he heard at the session of
the Augusta municipal court We'd
nesday, that it was necessary for
the court to work in relays, through
the prolonged session from II A. NJ.
to mid afternoon. Judge Robert A.
CCny presided at the hearing of
two counts against Eugene Cline of
this city and as this case dragged
testimony was all in. Recorder Ar
thur Tiffin relieved the Judge at its
termination and heard the trial of
the two counts against Wallace Cor
mier of this city. In the afternoon
Judge Cony again took charge of the
proceedings and heard TWO other
cases resulting from the activities
of the Sheriffs efficient force of
deputies at Windsor Fair, and in Au-
gusta, Tuesday and Wednesday.
Two Counts Against Cline
The charges against Cline, who
lives near the National Home. were
on a warrant swore out by Deputy
Sheriff Ezra Jones, who was the star
witness for the state in the case.
One charge was for single sale of
one-half pint of intoxicating liquor
to Joe Christian a member of the
National Home, which was alleged to
have occurred Tuesday afternoon.
The other charge was for illegal
possession and was the result of the
successful efforts of Deputy Jones in
unearthing the clever natural hide
near the Cline home. Cline was
found guilty on both counts and in
each was sentenced to pay a fine of
$3.50 and costs of $50 and to serve
3 months in Jail with months ad-
ditional in default of payment of
fine and costs.
Cline was represented by Attorney
Burleigh Martin, and the witnesses
for the State were deputies Jones and
William A. Cole. 1t was brought out
principally through the testimony of
Deputy Jones that they started for
Windsor Fair. Tuesday in Deputy
Coles automobile, and had as pas
senger Christian, who had passed
the night at the Kennebcc Jail. On
reaching the entrance gates to the
National reservation, Christian
alighted. and Deputy Jones who was
suspicious of the mans actions. fol-
lowed him in a few minutes. Chris
tan was alleged to have gone to the
Cline house where he called Cline
out The latter went to place about
forty five feet from the house and
returning, Deputy Jones saw him
hand Christian the liquor and re-
ceive money in return.
Deputy Sheriff Jones stepped out
from his place Of concealment. took

A verdict Of 81 for the plaintiff
was awarded by the jury in the case
of Forrest Ware IN Replevine vs.. F.
E. Maddocks. which was taken up
with the opening of superior court.
Wednesday morning. This case was
one of disputed possession OF horse
and colt and occupied the larger
part of the day.
Forrest Ware of Whitefeld testi-
fed that the horse, which original
ly belonged to Charles McManus.
had been given to him by McManus
because 1t was sick and he could
not cure 1t. AS Ware was a good
man with horses McManus gave it
to him as he did not want to have
1t die on his hands. He stated that
had later had a colt. After he had
had the horse for four or five years,
both the horse and the young colt
disappeared from the pasture where
it had been placed and after diligent
search the horse was found at the
home of DR.. Maddocks. Ware there
fore took out a writ of replevin.
Rufus E. Fowles of North White
field, one of the selectmen of the
town at that time, said that he had
known of the horse both before and
after it was given to Ware and that
shortly after that, he had been told
by Ware that he had three horses.
including that one. and that he
should be taxed for them. After
they had looked the horse over they
had decided that it was not worth
taxing.
William Hickey of Whitefield tes-
titled that before the horse was TAX
en- over by Ware it was in bad con-
dition and that McManus had told
him that he had rather give 1t to
Ware. who is good horse doctor,
than have it die on his hands.
James McGraw, William Grady.
Lester Ripley and John Dunn were
placed on the stand by the plaintiff
and all testified to the giving of the
horse to Ware by McManus and to
the fact that McManus had acknowl-
edged this by things that he had
said at various times.
The defense first placed Mr.. Nc
Manus upon the stand. He testified
that the horse, which had borne sew
eral fine colts, had been in bad con-
dition and that he had not been able
to improve it's health. He had told
Ware that he would not sell her for
any amount of money but that if
