Oct. &§—The Court of Ap- 1 pealg adjourned this afternoon without handing down the much-expected oo cision In the Molincux cone. It was learned last night from several quarters of the most reliable nat that not only had the Court agreed fully on the opinion to be rendered, but that the decision In Its final form had left the stenographer's hands. The strange delay of the Court of! Appeals is a profound mystery to all. | for It had been confidently expected to- day, and there were many who awaited | ft with Intense Interest. Much significance 9 attach>4 to the fact that the Court to-day handed down no decision whatsoever, neither tn the Molineux case nor in any other. It Is an extremely unusual occurrence for the Court of Appeals to adjourn on “de- cision days" without handing down at Ieast one decision. As a result’ muny are asking the, question: | Court of Atmel Ad- journs Without Act- ing—Delay Mystiftes All—Many Ask: ‘‘Was Opinion Ready and Was It Changed at the Last Moment? ——— Was the decision changed at the Inst momentt Not until Friday 4s there a possibility that Roland B. Molineux, the New York clubman who was convicted of the mur- der of Mrs. Katherine J, Adams, will know whether or not he ts to have an- other chance for his life by being grant. ed a new trial. No decision will be ren- dered by the Court of Appeals until that day. It ts sald, however, that the opinion! | whose long stay may not be rendered until Tuesday, which is the next “decision dey" after Friday. This further delay would seem to bear out the contention of-those who belleve thut the Court changed thelr | minds at the last moment, as the writing of a ne» decision 1s a laborious and lengthy procedure. The counsel and friends of Roland B. Molincux, the condemned murderer, in the death cell in Bing Sing has broken the record, believe that the new trial asked for will be Kranted by the court. They base their hope on the case pre- sented Instead of encouraging informa- tion from any source near the judges, On the other hand the attorneys: w heard the arguments of David B. Hill, epecial counsel for the State, and saw the evidence submitted by District-At> torney Philbin against the granting of a new trial, belleve that the judgment of the lower court will be affirmed. Sympathy |s strong for Gen. Molineux, whose brave fight for his son has con- fined without abatement ever since he latter was condemned to the electric Shalt by the lower court .BIS 3 Judge Lacombe, in the, United S Circuit Court to-day, handed down order dismissing tho writ of habeas| corpus in the case of Wardman Bissert. | ‘The order of the court reads as follows: | “The writ of habeas corpas 14 dls missed and the prisoner is remanded | ¢o the custody whence he came.” | Fred House, ¢« r the convicted policemun, will appeal the case to the!
