The trial of YIki' for the murder of his mother will begin Monday, January 2 Si!. Weber's attorney argued for a later date, but Judge irewett thought that the date sei would give ample time for both the firvHecullon and the defense. Weber was hIho arraigned on the indictment brought in by the grand Jury for killing his father. He will plead next Monday. The indictment in the bunk robbery case was not brought up. Welier appeared in court wearing a streamer of white ribbon on his coat liiiiel. He seemed to be In good spirits and chatted freely with his counsel. The contest for the administration of the Weber estate came to a sudden close, a compromise having been effected. Public Administrator Shepard takes charge of the estate of Bertha and Karl Weber, and John Adams, young Wfebers guardian, administers on the estate of Julius and Mary Weber, the father and mother. This will result in the use of the fortune left by Julius Weber for the defense of the son. Weber has become very saucy and independent to the officers of late. When Sheriff Ketma went into the Jail Welter Jumped into his bed and covered his head up. Kenna struck a match, whereupon Weber uttered an oath and demanded whut authority the sheriff hud for lighting matches in his cell. The sheriff gave the prisoner a severe reprimand, mid later made an order thut no one should see the prisoner unless in the cniitpnny of a deputy sheriff and that Weber would hereafter be treated the same as any other prisoner who was in Jan on a similar charge. Weber's counsel made an appeal to the court, but Judge Prewett upheld the sheriff. In conversation Sheriff Kenna said: "lit have been too lenient with Weber. He has had too many visitors He and too many extra attentions. Imagines himself a hero and haa become dlctntorbil and Impudent." It haa leaked out that during the Inveatlgatlon before the grand Jury it was ascertained that Julius Weber had frequent dealings with the bank in carrying on his business of loaning money, and thnt a short time before the murder he borrowed quite a sum. This is thought completely to dispose of the theory that the money found behind the burn was burled by him. 15.
