r 3 THE MORNING 0K1SG0NIAN. TUESDAY, JUNE 23, 1903. EUGENE LIBERTY GUILTY JCR.T KETURJiS VERDICT CONVICT ING HIM OP ASSAULT. A. Family Hovr Over a Water Faucet Led Him to Stab B. L. Rcddeix In the Eye. Eugene TV. Liberty, who assaulted B. Xi. Redden with a table-knife, causing the latter to lose an eye. "was tried and con victed In Judge Sears' Court yesterday, on a charge of assault with a dangerous -weapon. The crime was committed on Hay 17 last. The evidence disclosed that Redden and his wife and children rented two rooms in their cottage at North Portland to Mr. and Sirs. Liberty with the privilege of their obtaining water from the kitchen faucet. The two women did not get along very well together, and as a result of this Redden fastened the door leading to the kitchen, compelling the Liberty family to go around the back way to get water. Liberty objected to such treatment, and removed the naltoiwhlch secured the door. On the day on which the trouble occurred Liberty proceeded to enter the kitchen. carrying a. water-bucket, and Redden says with a revolver In sight. After a war of words the men clinched, and Redden testi fied that ho got the-worst of it, as Liberty proved to be too strong for him. He stated that Liberty picked up plates from a table in the room and broke them over his head, and afterwards grabbed a knife. Redden said he made an unsuccessful at tempt to take the knife away from his assailant, and that Liberty thrust the knife into his loft eye. injuring the optic so badly that a surgeon had to remove it. He also testified that the defendant knocked him violently against the table. Redden's wife, William Roberts, and Dr. Fred Glllet were witnesses In his behalf. Liberty appeared In the court-room with his right hand In splints and bandaged. The main ligament on the back of his hand was cut. For the present, at least, he has lost the use of the index finger. He testified that Redden cut him with a knife as he entered the room, and that 'Redden used vile language to him, and was the aggressor In the light. Liberty de nied that ho drew a revolver, or that he cut Redden In the eye with a knife. He eaid ho did not know what caused the in jur to Redden's eye, but it probably re sulted from his falling and striking the corner of the table. Dr. S. C Slocum. who attended Liberty, testified that the wound on the man's hand appeared to be the result of a knife thrust On cross-examination by District Attor ney Manning the doctor admitted that the sharp point of a plate or saucer might have caused the cut. Mrs. Liberty and several other witnesses testified for the defense. The jury took but a short time to agree upon a verdict. SIX MOXTUS FOR THEFT. Robert Greenivnld Will pny Penalty for Stealing Cartridge!. Robert Greenwald. charged with steal ing boxes of cartridges In the store of Meier & Frank Company, pleaded guilty in the State Circuit Court yesterday and was Sentenced by" Judge Cleland to six months in the County Jail. Greenwald is a young man. and states that his mother, who resides In the East, Is wealthy, and that he has no occasion to be a criminal. It appears, however, to bo a weakness with him. Some time ago he falsely rep resented himself as agent for a .well known Eastern weekly Journal and col lected subscriptions from people on the strength of his alleged agency. He was arrested and served time. On obtaining his liberty he applied for and secured a position in the store of Meier & Frank Company. He was there but a short time until the firm missed articles frem the store, and Greenwald. who was. after some Inquiry, suspected of being the thief, was detected, and stolen goods were found In his possession.

TRANSMITTER OF METALS Clever Woman in Jail Who Changes Gold Into Silver. Josle Wheeler, a noted pickpocket was arrested Sunday afternoon by the police, and is awaiting her trial In the Municipal Court this morning under a ball of 51000 cash. A well-known business man, John C Preamls, a member of the North Pa cific Lumber Company, was her victim, and it cost him 513 to learn the ways of pickpockets. He reported the matter to the police, but was not willing to make a complaint or be known in the case. Chief Hunt however, was not content to work under such disadvantages, and made the complaint against the woman himself. Preamls was notified to appear against her yesterday, but failed to be on hand. A bench warrant was issued for him, and he will bo compelled to testify against her today. The woman pickpocket worked a smooth game, and the shrewd business man fell an easy victim. He was walking up Mor rison street when he met the woman. She was well dressed and had every appear ance of respectability. "Can I speak to you a moment?" she asked, stopping him and addressing him In pitiful tones. He thought at once that she was In trouble and stopped to listen. "You look so good and kind," she said in an assuring tone, "I know that I could ask you to help me out" Ho did not see why he should not do what he could to help a fellow-creature In trouble, and listened to her tale ot how she had been. deserted by her husband and left penni less and alone In a strange city. But he only had a 520 gold piece in his pocket and did not want to offer that As she told her story, she became very familiar and gradually she began to think that she admired her newly made ac quaintance very much. Ho had not bar gained to comfort her or to return her signs of affection, and In a moment learned that he had been fooled. He fidgeted uneasily as he realized the true character of the woman, and felt In his pocket for the gold piece. It was still there, and he decided that It .was time to get away before It was gone. The woman seemed very sorry to lose him but did not insist upon his staying longer; He was still uneasy, however, and as he passed under an electric light he took the coin from his pocket and found that It had changed to a plain ordinary silver dollar. Mr. Preamls' first Inclination was to keep the matter to himself and not to let his friends know how he had been fooled. Later, however, he went to the police station and reported the affair. "I thought you ought to know that there are such people about" he said. Even before he had left the station a woman was brought In for being on the streets and exciting suspicion and he recognized her as his friend of a few nights before. Accordingly she was 'locked up and her ball fixed at $1050. Business must have been good with her, however, for she promptly furnished the ball and was allowed to go. The police do not know her to be a noted pickpocket, but since the case has been pending they have found out that her work Is such as to make her famous In the "profession" If she Is allowed to work at It unmolested. ADMITTED TO FELLOWSHIP Baptist Council Pronounces Ccntrnl Church Entitled to Recognition. At the conclusion of nearly three h.ours deliberation the Baptist Council, which met yesterday afternoon In the First United Brethren Church. East Fifteenth and East Morrison streets, recognized the Central. Baptist Church as a regularly established Baptist church, sound of doc trine and able to maintain Itself. Rev. William E. Randall; pastor of the Central Church, on request of the council, submitted the constitution. After it had been discussed and slightly criticised by Rev. C. A. Wooddy as to Its wording, It was passed as regular. A communication was "received during the session from Rev. S. C Lapham, pas tor of the Second Church, but the council refused to consider It or to make Its con tents public It is supposed to have been a protest against recognition of the Cen tral Church. Last night a'public recog nition service was held. Rev. G. H. Learn preached the sermon, and Rev. Henry A. Barden delivered the charge to the church. Probable Cause of Accident. A Jagged piece, of steel picked up by Harry Stutsman, engineer on the Burn side bridge, from the groove of the rails on the east approach, may have caused the derailment and accident to the open, street-car Sunday forenoon. The" piece Is triangular in form and about half an inch thick, and the sides are about two Inches long. It has the appearance of having been run over by a carwheel, and could very easily derail a car. If the flange should strike It It was picked up soon after the accident by Mr. Stutsman. If the carwheel did strike this piece of steel. It probably caused the derailment It Is much larger than the spike which caused a recent accident on the O. R. & N. Rail way. East Side Notes. A neat Baptist Church was dedicated Sunday afternoon at Cottrell with appro priate ceremonies.' It cost 51000, moat of which was provided for. C. A. Nutley is pastor of the church, it being part of his circuit The Sellwood School Alumni Association will hold Its semi-annual meeting and re ceive the new June class Into Its ranks this evening In Firemen's Hall.

MARCH THROUGH OREGON GEORGIA EDITORS IN A TOUR OF THE WEST. Southern Newspaper Men. and Their Wives Are the Gaesta of Port land for a. Day. "Marching Through Georgia" has been reversed, for this time the Georgians are marching through Oregon. A party of 26 members of the Georgia Press Association were the guests of the city yesterday. The Southern newspaper men and their wives are on their way from California back home to Georgia. They arrived In Portland Sunday evening, and leave this morning, bound for Yellowstone Park. The Commercial Club entertained the victors from the Sunny South. A com mittee from the club, composed of Colonel James Jackson. George W. Hazen, G. II. Durham. W. A. Cleland and W. E. Coman, escorted the editors on a sight-seeing, tour of the city. Assisted by wives of several clobmen the party was afterwards given a luncheon at the Commercial Club, and as a finishing touch to the day's pleasure a river trip was taken to Oregon City, re turning by car line. Every member of the editorial party ex pressed his appreciation of the reception tendered them, and the praises of Port land and its people will evidently be sung In the Georgia papers on the return. It was Portland's flowers, and particu larly the roses, which took the eyes of the Georgia people. 'I couldn't realize that all the flowers were genuine, when I first saw them," said one lady of the party. "We saw lots of flowers In California, but these roses beat anything we ever saw before." Those who arranged the luncheon at the rooms of the Commercial Club took ad vantage of Portland's flowers, and gath ered together an array to be placed upon the snowy cloth which aroused fresh words of admiration The Commercial Club, "both individually and as an organiz ation, laid Itself out to entertain the Georgia visitors In a way they would long remember, and they succeeded admirably. The Hood River strawberries which fin ished off the luncheon came In for their full quota of admiration. Berries of that exquisite taste were a novelty with the Southerners. The Chinook salmon was an other new dish much appreciated by the editors. A number of Invited guests were present at the luncheon, and aided in the enter tainment of the visitors. Among them were H. W. Scott and H. L. Pittock, C. J. Owen, C. S. Jackson, and Max M. Shlllock, Secretary of the Board of Trade. After the luncheon the party was hur ried off In a tally-ho to take a steamer provided by Captain A. B. Graham, of the Oregon City Transportation Company. Ac companied by the entertainment commit tee and John S. Plnney, manager of iho American Type Founders' Company, who assisted the committee in the reception, the party visited the falls and. after tak ing a spin to Canemah Park on a special car, donated by the Oregon Water Power & Railway Company, the visitors and their entertainers returned to the Hotel Portland. The Georgians start this morning for home, Portland being the farthest point from Georgia which will be visited. They go by way of Pocatello to Yellowstone Park, where a week will be spent Among the party fit editors are many practical newspaper men as well as sev eral proprietors and business managers of magazines. H. H. Cabanlss, the President of the State Association, looks the part of a Southern gentlemen of the old school to perfection. Ho was formerly editor of the Atlanta Journal, but Is now connected with the Augusta Chronicle. Following are the names of the editors who havo visited Portland: H. II. Cabanlss, president, and wife.

Equit able Life Assurance Society's business In Oregon, has Just been presented with an origin il bronze statue of Henry B. Hyde, founder of the Equitable Life Assurance Society. The elder Mr. Hyde died a number of years ago. The statue Is the work of J. A. O. Ward, one of the best known of the famous New York sculp tors. Mr. Samuel Is one of the few of the present managers of the Equitable So ciety In the United States who worked under the elder Mr. Hyde's personal di rection. Mr. Samuel's personal relations with the former president were cordial and of the most friendly character. It is In recognition of this old-time friend ship between his father and Mr. Samuel that Mr. J. IL Hyde, now vice-president of the Equitable Society, presented Mr. Samuel with this statue. Mr. Samuel prizes the gift as a fitting reminder of the old friend's great ablltles, and of his many virtues, and also as attesting the esteem of the younger Mr. Hyde, who has developed the character and the ability of his father before him. To Decide Fate of Candidates. Early this week the Civil Service Com mission will meet and pass on the bunch of examination papers passed in at the police examination held on Saturday. Ap plicants for positions as captain of de tectives, captains of patrolmen, patrol men, detectives, drivers, matrons, jailers and harbor-masters answered the quizzes, and they are anxiously waiting their fate. About 40 papers were turned In in all. and as a whole they show a marked Im provement over those submitted at the last examination, when the patrolmen were examined. The writing Is better all around, and there do not appear to be as many misspelled words as before. No Smallpox in Home. PORTLAND. June 22. (To the Editor.)
