Salem CitixqnHr Spend Their Money, Then Cry Robbery. SALEM, Jan. 5. (Special.) Many times during the last six months the Salem po lice have been much annoyed by persons who claim to have been robbed, when an investigation leads almost conclusive ly to the belief that the stories are un true.. Several times when investigations were" made it has developed that the men who claimed to have been robbed , had in fact spent their money In drinking or gambling and were putting up the rob bery story to explain the loss of their money. These stories have been annoying to the police because they are sent upon a search for thugs who do not exist, and also because the stories give Salem a bad name. Since those who concoct robbery stories always designate a time and place for the occurrence at which no other persons were present, the police have been un able to assert and prove that the stories are false. There is nothing for them to do but make a search and accept the i&ssertion that a robbery was committed. "While a few robberies have been commlt ied here In the past six months, the police tare satisfied that Salem has had alto gether too much notoriety along that line land that.lt ,1s not such a rendezvous of Vtoughs as the criminal news reports would Indicate. Probably not half of the hold rap stories are true. DDES IN PENITENTIARY. "TtTHllam Heitmlller Another Victim of Typhoid Epidemic. SALEM, Or., Jan. 5. (Special.) William fHeitmiller, who was received at the peni tentiary in November, 1901, on a five-year veentenco for assault with a dangerous 'weapon, In Tillamook County, died at that Institution at 2:10 A. M. today. The cause of bis death was chronic cerebral meningitis, followed by typhoid lever. He was &i years of age. Relatives In Tilla- - mook County will take charge of the re- mains. This is the third death at the prison resulting from typhoid. Superintendent Clark, of the State School for Deaf Mutes, says that there has not been -a case of typhoid fever at this institution this season. At the Re form School, a mile distant, there have been many cases. The immunity of the pupils of the mute school Is supposed to be due to the fact that the drinking water at the latter institution Is drawn from a spring in the hillside. Superintendent Bickers, of the Reform School, will ask the Legislature to provide for bringing water to the Reform School from the spring above the mute school. The rec ord of sickness at the two Institutions seems to Indicate that the Impure water at the Reform School has been the source of the many cases of typhoid, ATHLETIC COUNCIL NAMED. t'nivernlty Alumni to Assist Faculty and Stndcnts.

TIT -T T 1 T t 1 1 . I iv rvpw other vear. and that under the present system is possible for fraud In .vin .lKurinf nf trlnl iufors or trrand Jurors. rJrnrtv the first evil, it was proposed tllBt th orlrfnal list of Jurors for the year be drawn by chance, so that no favoritism would be possible. The bill prepared by the special commit tee to govern the manner of making Jury lists provided in substance that every year when he assesses the property In his m,nv th Assessor shall ascertain the name of every taxpayer in each precinct between the ages of 25 and GO years who i a,ttta hv law for iurv duty, and on the assessment roll place the letter "J" nfBr fh nnmos of such taxnavers. That un(jer the supervision of the County Court at Its first term In each year the County Clerk shall write the names of an qualified Jurors upon slips of paper uni form in size, color and texture, the names for each precinct being kept separate. On the first day of the term of the County Court the court must cause all the names for a precinct to be placed in a box and thoroughly shaken, after which there shall be drawn out 10 per cent of the nam'es In each precinct, entering the names drawn Miss Minnie Ensminfrer, vrho was killed Christmas eve by her jealous lover. upon a list; provided, that a greater per cent shall be drawn, if necessary, in ordei to make a total of 4C0 names for the coun ty. The names for each precinct are to be drawn separately in the same manner. ine names mus aran uy pretiuuia are then to be placed ail together in a box and 250 drawn therefrom by chance. At the first term of the Circuit Court the Clr- cult Judge. County Assessor and Cqunty Judge, composing the Jury Commission, i u - 1 . snall select from this list of 250 the names or sw persons, wno snau compose me jury j iisi ior me county uuui u uc i.su a mn us uruwii iui me iicai jcai of 50,000 inhabitants the jury list must con- tain not less than 500 names. From this jury list the regular term panels of 31 names are to bo drawn. Th. winn ni:.ri to t-h tmc- ure was that it prevented men under 25 years of age from being drawn on juries. It was said In answer to this that the ii.. ,t,M i!,it0 in t,w nnri that this can be best secured by placing an age limit upon jurors, since the best Jurors are over 25 years of age. It was also stated that under the present system it is very seldom that men under 25 years of age are placed on the jury lists, so that the proposed law would not change the system in its practice. It was argued that drawing by chance will secure Juries regardless of politics and when one attorney scouted the Idea that politics had anything to do with making up the list, another attorney said VICTIM OF BAKER COUNTY J j TRAGEDY. j that after practicing in Marlon county for many years he could say that politics does have a great deal to do with it, for he has observed that comparatively few Democrats have been drawn on the juries. An attempt was made to amend the bill by substituting a plan by which the attorneys would take a leading part in selecting the Jury, and also to substitute the Iowa system of having the list formed by precinct officers. After nearly the entire afternoon had been spent In thor ough discussion of all phases of the jury question, the bill outlined above was adopted and will go to the Legislature with the earnest support of the Marion county bar. The bill adopted describing the man ner in which trial juries shall be drawn provides that the jury panel shall be posted In the court room In a conspicu ous place, with numbers preceding each name. In the box provided for that pur pose, the clerk shall place spherical balls not exceeding three-fourths of an inch In diameter and bearing numbers corre sponding with the numbers opposite the names on the Jury list. The balls aro to be thoroughly shaken and drawn out one at a time, when the number on the balls shall be. announced and tho corresponding name entered on the trial Jury list. Other bills indorsed by the association were a bill making exempt firemen liable for Jury duty. This bill was favored be cause some of the best men In Salem are exempt from Jury duty under exempt firemen privilege; a bill providing that costs and disbursements shall be taxed by the court or Judge Instead of by the clerk; a bill making appellant's filing fee In supreme court 510, and respondent's $5; allowing the clerk of that court 5 cents a folio for making copies and requiring him to mall free of charge to attorneys on both sides of a case a copy of the opinion of the court deciding the case; a bill requiring the State Printer to print the supreme court reports from stereo typed plates which shall be deposited with the Secretary of State, and to be property of the state, the printer to receive $2.50 per volume for printing the reports. A bill abolishing the trial fee in theSu preme Court and fixing the maximum al lowance for printing briefs at 50 cents per page. A bill authorizing a Judge to make ex-parte orders and orders which parties are entitled to as of course, out of court with the same effect as though he were sitting as a court. The bill published in today's Oregonlm providing for assessment of franchises of telegraph, telephone, express and oil com panles, was amended by inserting railroad companies. Two attorneys were added to the Legis lative committee, which now consists of the following gentlemen: W. H. Holmes. i chairman; Judge George H. Burnett, W. T. Sliter, George G. Bingham, John A, i Carson, W. M. Kaiser. John A. Jeffries, . This committee will appear before the proper committee in the Legislature in the interest of these measures. Vancouver Barracks Nq(ck.

CUTS THROAT WITH KNIFE DAVID ULIN COMMITS SUICIDE IN ALBANY. Picks Up a Butcher Knife, and, After Dcspernte StrnRgle "With His Brother, Gains His End. ALBANY? Or., Jan. 5. (Special.) David Ulin, foreman in Smith & Howard's rock quarry at Portland, committed suicide in Albany today at 12:33 by cutting his throat with a butcher knife, ulin, in company with his brother Charles, was on his way from Portland to San Fran cisco. When the train, stopped at Albany for dinner, the two men went into Pom eroy's saloon, near by. Ulin had been actinjr queerly all morning, and as he started for the rear of the building his brother followed him. As Ulin passed into a back room ho seized a butcher knife about 15 inches long, which was lying on a box. His brother grappled with him and called for help. Robert Pomeroy rushed to tho room, only to. see the desperate man thrust the knife Into his throat, cutting a gash from back of the jugular vein to the larnyx in front, severing the jugular, all the cords and cutting into the windpipe. When Pomeroy came upon the scene the two men had grappled and were struggling desperately, Dave Ulin en deavoring to get the knife to his throat, while Charles Ulin was working ju3t as hard to prevent It. Dave had hold of the knife with both hnnds, with the blade pointed toward his throat. Before Pome roy could reach the struggling men. the knife shot upward, with the result as stated. When Dave Ulin had accomplished, his end the struggle ceased, the dying man seating himself on a chair In tho oppo site end of the room from where the melee began. He soon fell forward upon the floor and breathed his last, soaking in a pool of his own plood. Besides the death-dealing gash in the neck, the dead man had severed the ar teries and leaders of his right wrist. Thli may have been inflicted during the strug- Rl". Charles Ulin received a severe cut dur ing the struggle, the knife penetrating between the thumb and index finger of the left hand, severing the cords and ren dering the finger useless. Charles Ulin said his home was in San Francisco, and he had been spending the holidays with his brother in Portland. When asked If he could ascribe any cause to the sui cide, Charles said he knew of no reason for the desperate act. His brother was very talkative and restless, but beyond that was all right, so far as he knew. The verdict of the Coroner's Inquest held over the body of David Ulin this afternoon Is as follows: "We, the Jurors, being duly sworn, find that David Ulin came to his death by cutting his throat while temporarily insane, at Albany, Or. Fred Dawson, foreman; Jerome Williams, W. E. Fronk, Carter Lee, G. C. Moon, W. F. Reed." At the Inquest Charles Ulin testified that his brother was very nervous. Be fore leaving Portland they called on Dr. Panton. who prescribed for tho sick man. and the prescription was filled In a drug store at the corner of Fourth and wash Ington streets. On the way up from Portland David Ulin was taking the med icine and spilled some of it over his face and clothes. Charles Ulin said he thought his brother was temporarily insane. He gave David Ulin's Portland residence as 890 Thurman street. Dt'-ceased was a single man and had no other relations. Charles Ulin said he and his brother stayed Sun day night at the Barr Hotel in Portland, and that his brother had two months' wages, ?200, coming from Smith and How ard, which money had been ordered sent to San Francisco. The Coroner's jury failed to find a piece of coin or a scrap of paper of any kind on the dead man's person. There were a few matches in his vest pocket. The brother Charles had both tickets to San Francisco and all the money In his pocket. David Ulin will be burled In Albany tomorrow morning at-9 o'clock. Charles Ulin. the brother of the sui cide, came from San Francisco several days ago with the news of the death In Germany of the mother of the two men David Ulin was foreman for Smyth & Howard, and the men with whom he worked say that the ead news seemed to shock him so that he paid little atten tion to his work. His brother persuaded him to accompany him back to San Fran Cisco, and the two men left David's home on the St. Helen's road, near Guild's Lake, Sunday afternoon and roomed at a down-town hotel that night. Apparently they got no further on their Southern trip than Albany, where David In a mo ment of mental aberration committed sui clde. His employers know of nothing but the death of his mother that could hav prompted the act, and say that he had their entire confidence ana was a tnor oughly efficient foreman. He had lived In Portland nearly 10 years. He was known variously as Uhlen. Uline, Ulin and Yulene. and was 33 years old and un married. ADOPTS STRINGENT LAW.
