THE CASE OF MISS HARVELLE. She Still Remains With Friends Away From Her Home. ‘Miss Marie Harvelle, an account of whose experiences since leaving her home, No. 1320 W street northwest, Thursday evening, has attracted considerable public notice, is sald by persons who are in a position to know’ 'to be at the home of friends in this city, and there she will re- main for an indefinite period. Miss Marie was ¥efused admission to the convent Saturday.’'She then found a refuge with a girl friend on K street, and there she remained untfl last evening, when she went to the house where she will make her home for the ptesént. Mrs. Harvelle Has, however, recovered Miss Marie’s trunk, which for a couple of days was stored in-an outbuilding belong- ing to William Farquhar’s parents, the lat- ter having refused on: account of the sur- rounding circumstances to allow the trunk to be taken into the house or in any man- ner be responsible for its safety. Last night a lady called at Mr. Farqu- bar's home and told him that she had a note from Miss Marie requesting him to deliver the trunk to the lady. Mr. Farqu- har replied that if she had a note from Miss Marie to that effect she could take the trunk. The lady then called a man, who took the trunk in a push cart to Mrs. Harvelle’s home. Mrs. Harvelle was quite sick at home today, her illness being due, it was stated, to anxiety for her daughter and mortifi- cation on account of the publicity given to the affair. Her friends all expressed them- selves as quite sure she had not used the violent language attributed to her in the interview at police headquarters. One who has known her a long time told a Star reporter that Mrs. Harvelle was of a mild and even temper, and it was only in a moment of strong excitement that she could give way to such a passionate outburst as that described. Her friends also insist that Mrs. Harvelle has never ill-treated her daughter. The Sisters of the Visitation, in charge of Georgetown Convent, write to The Star as follows: “‘The statement that Miss Marie Harvelle was taken to Georgetown Con- vent is a mistake. She is not there and never has been.” Mr. Farquhar, sr., was the victim of an unfortunate incident yesterday evening. During the day there were a number of visitors from out of town at his house, and while assisting them to the cars at 14th and U strcets, where there was a large crowd of persons at the time, some one in ‘the throng picked his pocket of $50 in money and several checks. The latter were not, however, indorsed, and payment on them’ was stopped this morning. Mr. Farquhar has ro clew to the thief. —_——__ THE STEAMER “THREE FRIENDS.” Argument in the Case Heard by the Supreme Court. The United States Supreme Court today heard srguments in. the case of the United States vs. the steamer Three Friends on the motion of the Attorney General for a certiorari for the circuit court of appeals for the fifth circuit to bring the case to the Supreme Court, the steamer having been libeled for condemnation on the charge of violating the neutrality laws controlling the relations between the United States and Spain. Assistant Attorney General Whitney made the first argument for the govern- ment. He began by stating the question briefly and then discussed at length the question of the nature of a recognition of . He. ed. the effect of the act of 1817 inthe use of the words He sald it clear that the; steamer had been owned and equipped to be employed against the 9; ,authorities by the . He read extracts irom the President's it message to show that sufficient recogni “of the Cuban bellig- erents had been given’ by the executive to justify the coi in giving them their at- tention. The Florida district court had taken the position that it could not, under the statute, take #uch'icognizance, but Mr. Whitney argued toi the contrary. The cnly question, he said, was whether the statute was applicable for the reason that belliger- ency of the Cubans bap not been formally recognized. It was true in the technical meaning of internatipnal law that the Cubans had not been recognized as bellig- eFents, but even if:this' was the case there were other statutes concerning piracy and enlisting men fog ‘hgstilities against a friendly power whieh. appilcable. . As & matter of fact, there was nothing In the statute to requireva recognition of bellig- erency to set the taw'in motion. —-— Himess of Mr.\Sam j. Onbell, Mr. Samuel G.

The excise board Saturday heard argu- ments for the reopening of the case of Richard Hall, 3254 M street northwest, whose application for a liquor license has refused. A number of promi- men in Georgetown joined in @ petition to the excise board for a rehear- ing in the case. One of the charges was that he had sold liquor to minors, and this was based upon letters written to the board by Mrs. Mary Simmons. At the hearing Saturday morning Mrs. Simmons retracted the charge. The board took the case un- der consideration. See ANNEXATION SENTIMENT IN HAWAII Growing Number of Those Favoring Political Union. ‘From the Honolulu Commercial Gazette. Constant additions of prominent Hawa- flans to the list of active annexationists shows what a little sober thought and care- ful study cf what annexation means will do. Political prejudice has caused many to hold aloof, but the petty barriers are being broken down by this movement, carried on the broad lines laid down by the Annexa- tion Club. Throughout all the districts of the islends the steady growth of the annex- tion sentiment among all clans and class- es, irrespective of nationality or previous condition of political servitude, demon- strates that the s Opposition exists only umong a few persons capable of talk- ing vociferously, but really saying very little, and unable to present any sound arguments.
