CARSON, Nkv., April 5.—In the United States District Court tc-day £ wbat is known as the Muzzer case was disposed of by Judge Hawley. 4 The case is of considerable importance, as it entails a decision important to many Washoe Valley settlers.

Olney added that his betrothed was 24 years old and that she was of a lawiui age when she could choose 2 husband without consulting anybody. He further stated that he did ‘not require assistance of any kind from the voung lady’s family, as he had means and ability enough of his own to comfortably sunport a wife. Olney has a stack of gushing.love letters from his seaside sweetheart, which, however, he declines to exhibit uniess they are neces- sary to strengthen his cance in conrt. Fitzgerald declined to act in the mat- ter—first, because he is not engaged im tne private practice of law at present; econd, because he did not believe that Olney bad good ground for action; and, iurther, because of his aversion to bring- ing a respectable family into notoriety where the public good is not involved. Olney will, however, find no difficulty in engaging other Jegal assistance to create a sensation in local swelldom.

The Phenomenally Busy Scene at the Palace Hotel Yesterday. This is the height of the tourist season, and throngs of visitors from different parts of the East are acriving here every week. rly every day sees tourists reach here, and the attaches of the hotels, especially those of the Palace, to which most of the Raymond and Whitcomb totrists are ticketed, have all thep can do to attend to them. The United Carrisge Company has for some time past, owing to the extra demands because of increased travel, had some difficulty in suppiying the needed carriages. The tourist season, which opened earlier this winfer than usual, ana which has now reached such & point that it has not been equaled for three years, will last for probably a mouth more. Yesterday for several hours there was a crush and jam at the Palace that made the drive- way and office Jook like a section out of the neart of Market street, 5o many people here there to Jook aiter. At81n the morning a special party of Eastern people known as the Penmsyl- vanis excursion, which bas been here for several days, got their traps together and started eastward. The Golden Gate excursion and a large number of Raymouds yet remained. At 2 in the aiternoon another party of Raymond and Whitcomb tourists, who required four pages of the register for tneir names, reached the hotel. Carriages had been busy with the other tourists, and when these folled iuto the hotel about all the available vehicles liad peen brought into service.

CRAEMER MAY YET ESCAPE THE NOOSE Judge Jacobs of Seattle Raises the Condemned Man’s Hopes. State’s Attorney to Show Cause Why a New Trial Should Not Be Granted. Ex.Chief of Police Rogers Accused of Having Manufactured Evidenc. SEATTLE, Wass., April 5—Upon the strength of numerous sensational affi- davite setting forth that Bolton Rogers, manufactured evidence upon wtich a con- viction was obtained, Judge Orange Ja- cobs this afternoon directed the State’s attorney to appear and show cause why Henry Craemer, found guilty of having murdered Mrs. Philippena Mueller and her babe on August13, 1894 and sen- tenced to be hanged on the 23d of this month, should not be granted a new trial, Robbery was set forth as one of the mo- tives for the commission of the crime, one of the foulest in the history of the North- west. Rogers testified to baving found $200 in gold secreted in Craemer's wood- the then Chief of Potice of Seattle, had | 1 shed. The affidavits allege that the money bad been placed in the shea by some per- son other than Craenter, and that the chief’s testimony that he discovered the money in a mitre-box was ialse. This box, they assert, occupied a most con- spicuous place in the buiiding. The piece {of wood found behind the shed and iden- tified as a piece of Craemer’s bammer | bandle was, the affidavits assert, placed there after the arrest and could not possi- bly have been sawed off by Creamer. Fur- ther on in the affidavits the allegation is made that the handle was sawed and olaced behind the woodshed by Rozers aifter the arrest. Kogers is.also charzed with having made away: with certain - evi- dence favorable to the accused. . - There are likewise “several affidavitd showing that “Jack” Quincy, wbo'ihe police asserted was s myth, was (as con- tended by the condemned man) with Craemer in Tacoma on the day: of the murder. By hotel registers it is shown that subscquent to the murder Quincy stopped in Victoria and Monte Christo and that some years prior to the crime he lived in Los Angeles. The case has atiracted widespread at- tention and many Germans in San Fran- cisco and other cities throughont the United States contributed money at the solicitation of O. F. Wagner to the end that a new trial might be obtained. Aside from the affidavits the motion is anovel one, being a revival of the old writ of coram nobis, The questions upon which the granting of the writ may turn are whetner or not itis the common law in the absence of the statute in this State, and whether or not the statute has ab- rogated or supplemented this proceeding.
