An adjournment was taken until next Tuesday mornin INHALING OPIUM FUMES. Distinctions Attempted to Be| Made by Wong Gwang’s | Attorney. Vieiting a Resort Declared to Be‘ a Crime by a Oity | Ordinanoce. { There was a sharp Interchange of repartee in Judge Troutt’s court yester- day, when the case of Wong Gwang was brought up on writ of hateas corpus. Attorney Newburgh, representing the prisoner, insisted that the ordinance is | unconstitutional under which Gwang was deprivel of his liberty, and cited the de- | cision of the Supreme Court of California in construing a similar ordinance passed by the Snpervisors of San Joaquin County, where he sald an attempt was made to cure some of the defectsof the Penal Code. The Supreme Court said the Supervisors bad no such pawer. Assistant District Attorney Hinkle re- sponded that there is a great difference betwcen the Stockton case and the one at bar. The ordinance here does not at- tempt to cure defects in the State law, but simply goes a step farther than the stat- The statute forbids the visiting of | an opium joint torthe purpose of smoking opium or inhaling the fumes thereof. The ordinance under which the prisoner | is being prosecuted makes the additional provision that any person visiting such a‘ pluce for any purpose whatever is guilty of a crime and is punishable for so coing. It was the same as a person visiting a gambiing-place. They could be punished if caught in thatkiud of company whether thev had ever wagered a nickel or not. Mr. Newburgh insisted that there wasno | material distinction between the Stockton | litigation and that now under considera- | tion and, laboring under considerable ex- | citement, made a personal appeal to Mr. Hinkle that aroused that gentieman to a | similar state of mental exaltation. | “Now, s=e here, if you go to such a| place don’t you remain to smoke and in- | hale the opium fumes?’’ blurted out Mr. | Newburgh. Mr. Hinkle--I beg your pardon, I have | bad no experience with optum. Ciearettes are good enough for me. Mr. Newburgh—One is as bad as t other. Mr. Hinkle—Permit to again say that my experience does not warrant me in dis- puting your assertions in this regard. The court—Gentiemen, let us not forget that there is a legal guestion involved here he | which cunnot besoived by personal sllu- sions. This brought both the lawyers back to their smiles and the matter was taken under advicement, with permission for the filing of briefs withn the next five days. — e —————— Stole a Rig.

If this information is true then the instruments must of necessity be fictitious. “We have been looking carefully into this marter,”’ said Chiet Lees. *I am satisfied we can make those two charges We have strong evidence to sup- port them.” When tne Chief speaks in such positive terms he usuaily is pretiy sure of his game, and the knowing ones preaict that it will be some months before | the glad sunlight of reedom glistens upon Cooper’s high silk hat. | oper mukes a determined but visible effort to maintain tne same nonchalance | that he has been striving for ever since bis incarceration.
