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.

This is the suit brought to recover on
Huntington's bond as Tax Collector of

was fixed at JlO.OjO. but Huntington had
trouble In getting sureties and nftr se

to limit their liability so that In the ag

bond was delivered to the County Court
and received by it. Huntington had not

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

The Instructions given by the lowe:
court were not In harmony with the viewg
of the Supreme Court, hence the case goes
back for new trial. Justice Halley took
