There v.-.-i-e several ' legal manoeuvres'' yester day in tii caso which led up to the iii.viitutlt n ui the habeas corpus pro- ling- ehif among which was an order by a magistrate postponing a trial of the two men uutil November 27 and declining to release the prisoners on bail. Renders of The Post will recall that Criilin was shot and killed near the Falls of the Neiwe, October 7, by Mangum. who submitted himself to the officers of he law, and, after an investi gation by the coroner, was released, the cowuer deciding that the evidence aU avowed that Mangum was justified iu fcli.iotintr Grifn ii. However, about two weeks ago Mangum was re-arrested, an4J ffiiso one - ar U Aeal, w no was present, when the Killing occurred. The latter is charged with aiding and abetting Man gum in the malicious killing of Griffin. The-e warrants were issued by Justice. Rarbee, and the hearing was to have been in his t-ourt, on Martin street, ye-terdiy at 11 a. m. The .warrants v. ere isi:.-,l ua thv ground that evidence shewing m:;!h e and criminality on the part ol V.'rigr.m and O'Neal h:ul devel oped iiiv the investigation and dismis sal of Mangum by the coroner.

Justice Marcom, how ever, continued the hearing until 1 o'clock noon November 12 and declined to allow the release of the defendants on bail. Thereupon their counsel gave notice that they would institute habeas corpus proceedings before Judge Mont gomery nt once. It was found, how ever, tii.tr the judge was out of the city and would not return until late in the cvelung; so that it was not possible to fc.ne the ease heard last night. Quite a number of witnesses and inter ested parties were anxious to return to their hon es last night, but were obliged to remain over night to attend the trial today. , The witness whose absence is th? ground on which ? -utinuance of the trial was asked -:day is Charles byman. who was the only - per-on pres ent when the killing occurred except the two defendants in the proceedings now pending. He ran away immedi ately after the killing and has not been heard from since, so far as is 'known outside of official circles.

Representatirve James D. Richai'dsxm has made the fol lowing statement orf hia views of the !iheme otf Damoerati-c reorganization: "A political post niorttsm is usually profitless. In this inta.nce the; is mo advantage in discussing the jjresuimptdve reason for -a falling off here and a ga.n there, and "why ;this .Stat wn't lie publican and some othor State did not ero Demooratie. The Democracy is strong and time. Its .principLes are au chauged .and unehangeaibile. (No tempor ary defeat can oboure its brilliant ree wd. The genius of Jefferskm created it. His spia'it animates it. It cansot die. Today it is as dajuntless as in the days ?f its greatest tiiu-mh, &ni it ad vocates piuposy to go ahead as unfal teringly as they have .gone in the past. "Its future will 'be as creditable as its past. It oannoit change with every shifting wind and tide. The present or ganization has done effMen,t 'and faith ful -work. It has tbeeu free from the spirit of comimenciiail'iam. It has per formed its duty in a way thtat, in nvy jiulgmerrt, has Avon for it the respect and admiration of the people. The preseat organization will continue to control, iis it very properly should. "As to this scheme of re-organization, I can say that the party wants ail the supporters it can get. livery ,man who believes in Democratic princrpUs is welcomed into the (foil. But the Deano'crptie party fan nvake no suireu der of princi'pile for expeidien'cy's . aake. it caii lnalce no yurrenvler to the ' feoaa mercialism of the moment. When it nioes that it ceases to be. Democratic, and if it veers to -catch every favwing breeze it will soon be as far fmm its oiigiii'al moorings as the Republican iKirty is from its. Seven million voters revere the doctrine of Jefferson .and tadv-jcate his principles. These men will not aban don their IbelieC to please a minority erf the party. The majority rules in a Re public and in our .party. The majority will continue to ml e. "No one can say on what issues the next battle will be fought. The.princi ples of our party are immutable',.' issuers are created by conditions. The Repub lican party has been invested with a solemn trust. It will be held to the strictest accountability. It has the President and both branches of Con gress. It will make the laws and exe cute them. Upon its wisdom and upon the economic conditions that .develop will the issues of tho next battle de pend. "The next Democratic convention will consider all pending issues and sub jects and frame a platform. It will be a Democratic, a JeJiersonian one, and all true Democrats will stand Upon it. Those who do not wish to do so can stand on the Republican platform. Un doubtedly the men who call themselves Democrats, but who have been: Repub licans during the last two national cam paigns, wiil not be permitted to define the issues and shape policies for the Democratic party. I believe the present organization will control. It exists in every hamlet, town and city in the na tion. It is honest. t It will go right ahead, just as it has done during the last four years. .
