GIRL FEELS CONFIDENT Dora Jennings Plans With Her Little Sister What ; They Will Do 'When She Is Declared ot Guilty. wr W. G. MAC RAE. GRANT'S PASS. Or.. Jan. 23. (Staff Correspondence.) There Is yet an other night of agony and suspense for Dora Jennings. Ail day sne nas neen listeninc: to the words of condemna tion which fell from the lips of Dis trict Attorney Reames in torrents and to the arguments made in her favor by Thcr attorneys, Colvig & Durham, witn the hope that the case -would, so to the jury tonighU All through the trial there has been something splendid in the girl's con fidence that the jury will find her not guilty. This afternoon on her way from the Courthouse during the noon recess she was planning with little Julia the good time they would have as soon as she was free. The delay In sending the case to the jury was a disappointment to her, but it was unavoidable, for three of the jurors who have heard the evidence during the trial arc indisposed and ex pressed a desire that Judge Hanna postpone giving them instructions un til tomorrow morning. The jurors who arc ill arc C. J. Howard, II. S. "Woodcock and J. P. Kenney. The fetid air in the courtroom, due to the large crowds who pushed and shoved their way into the small au dience chamber, is in a measure re sponsible for the jurors" illness. The illness is not of a serious nature, how over, and Judge Hanna believes that with a night's good rest the jurymen will be able to take up their delibera tions in the morning. Arguments Occupy the Day. The entire day and evening sessions were lajtcn up hi. hearing the ar guments. District Attorney Reames ppoko ror two nours this morning, three this afternoon and an hour this evening. He was followed by G. H. Durham, junior counsel for Dora, and he in turn was followed bv V il. Colvig. The argument made by the District Attorney was a masterful and cleverly conceived arrangement of the testimony. He wove the circumstances surrounding the murder and the slender evidence which he had. twisting and adroitly turn ing me wnoie. until in its presentation it became formidable Dora's motive for havlnc a hand in iiin killing of her father. Mr. Reames con- i"naea. was tor ills- money. He defended the imputation that Blanche Roberts' story of Dora's confession was ? fabri cation, and declared that the girl told the truth. This -ivag in answer to the charge made by Attorney Durham thnt Rinnii Roberts' motive in trying to place the murner on uora was to aid her swect- ncari. District Attorney Scored. Mr. Durham made a forcible argument, and he was followed by Attorney Colvig. nno. aiinougn almost too ill to appear in court, delivered a stlrrl behalf of his client. Attorney Colvig severely censured the methods of the Dls- inct Attorneys olilce, and his arraign ment of Mr. Reames was extremely bit ter. Iafe this afternoon H. D. Norton, attor ney for Jasper Jennings, tiled a motion to sot aside the verdict, for a new trial. No date has been fst for the arguments! but it is believed the motion will be taken up as soon as the jury reports on Dora's case. Attorney Norton bases his motion upon failure of the court to ex clude the statement made bv Jasper. In which he said that it was Dora who com mitted the murder, and the one accusing his mother. The impeaching testimony of Dr. Flan agan, the Coroner, in regard to the testi mony given by John Evitt is another point raised. The main point raised is the refusal to allow Blancho Roberts to testify in behalf of the defendant, Jasper regarding the confession that Dora made to her.

Huntington had not signed the bond hlmTlf. and only the name of Brown had been entered therein. Brown and Fleetwood had not qualified The trial resulted In a verdict against the defendants and they appealed, alleg ing errors in instructing the Jury relative to the right of Huntington to deliver the bond to the County Court In Its Incom pleted condition. Tho Supreme Court noias tnat Huntington bad no "appar ent authority" to deliver the bond, for Its uncompleted condition refutes that, and the question to be decided Is whether. In reality, he was given authority. Says the court: It Is not necessary for tho plaintiff to snow express authority from tne derena ants to Huntington to deliver the bond. His authority may be Implied by their acts ana conuuri. nut ne must nave au thority, either express or implied, to make tne delivery before It could become or fective.
