TJIE MORNING OREGONIAN, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 16, 1907. 3 li'S BLUNDERS BADLY Testimony Implicates Many More and Indicates Work for the Grand Jury. STORY OF PLOT LAID BARE Ruef to Be Seized and Taken to a Cabin in Mountains To Be Held There Till tiro Statute of Limitations Kxpircs. fiAN FRANTISCO, Oct. 15. (Special.) More details concerning the history of the various kidnaping plots and the under hand methods of the detectives, tlniKs and rounders in the employ of Patrick Cal houn, were developed during a long after noon Investigation by the grand Jury to day. K. T. Newsome's account of the des perate scheme to abduct Abe Ruef through the' forcible overpowering of his guard, and of the plan to tuke another important witness to a miner's cabin in the mountains, 25 miles from Chtco, was verified through the testimony of several witnesses, and evidence was obtained of more, recent attempts to suborn perjury in the caso of witnesses called before the grand jury and to place these witnesses in hiding outside the jurisdiction of the authorities. Calhoun's Hirelings Poorly I'ald. So tangled has been the skein of in criminating evidence against Calhoun's poorly organized and inefficient crowd of hirelings that the next return of indict ments Is likely to cause some large gaps In his working force. The testimony to day Involved Luther drown, J. C Brown, A. B. Spencer, James McDonald and Erne Noon, of the private detective force, and possibly a chauffeur or two. The facts concerning the disappear ance last Saturday of Chauffeur Pete I'al lander at the time he was wanted as a witness before the rrand jury wTere brought out during the afternoon, and it was shown that Callander's story of a duck-hunting expedition to Marys VlUa was merely a fantasy, and that he was actually registered in an Oak land hotel under an assumed name while efforts were being made to And him, and while those in the secret of ills whereabouts were denying that they knew what had become of him. Moreover, Callander was cornered into an admission of an attempt on the part of Luther Brown to cause him to give false testimony similar in every re spect to the attempt made by Brown on Chauffeur Wyman, which i to Brown's Indictment a week ago.. Miner Tells ot Plot. y R. Montgomery, the Chico miner, was the most important witness called to substantiate Newsome's story of the plot to kidnap Ruef and another wit ness early in July. He verified in every particular Newsome's statement of what occurred at Chico, and Identified J. C. Brown as the man he had seen at the Park Hotel In that place. He said Newsome had told him that the whole ihlng was to bo a bluff so far as ac tually taking the man to his cabin was concerned, and that he had entered Into the agreement with this under standing. L. Westbrook, a clerk at the Park hotel in Chico, testified to the fact that on the date given by Newsome, J. C. rown registered at the Park hotel under the name of C. J. Morgan, and that he received a telegram addressed to C. J. Morgan. C. W. Isaacs, assistant to General Manager O'Brien of the Webtern Union Telegraph Company in this city, produced a duplicate of the telegram which was sent from Luther IJrown's ofTice to C. J. Morgan on the dato mentioned. The telegram as well as the signature were in cipher. Only One Witness Disagrees. -Charles R. Cooper, manager of the Oxford hotel in this city, produced the register of his hotel, showing the sig nature of J. C. Brown under his own name, and also under the assumed name. "Mr. Morgan." the signatures of James McDonald and also that of New some. James McDonald, who was implicated by Newsome as one of the principal conspirators in the early kidnaping plots, was the one man of all the wit nesses called who denieu the particu lars of Newsome's statement, but his story, which was intended to absolve him of all blame, was worn and patched In spots. He asserts that Newcome was at tile bottom of a conspiracy to injure him. According to the evidence developed, the scheme was to overpower Ruef's guard, carry Ruef to the waterfront, take a boat up the Sacramento River and disembark at Chico, take the pris oner to a lonely cabin in the mountains and detain him there until the statute of limitations should have run against the indictment. CHURCH HOSPITALITY. Experiences of a Stranger Who Goes Out us a Visitor. New York Evening Post. In one of thn popular magazines Miss Laura A. Smith gives an account of visits paid by her to some of the prin cipal Protestant churches of New York. J lev .object was twufold: First, "to test the welcome given a stranger in the average church, to see what was meant y the invitations 'Strangers Cordially Welcome'; " second, "to see how many of the clergymen or the members of the congregations would, after tiie services, speak a word of en couragement or greeting" to her. In order not to make too dazzling an Im pression, sho laid aside, as it were, the uniform of the fashionable world, and went :is a pialri-clothes woman on her detective errand. In only four out of twenty-one churches visited in the Rorougii of Manhattan was she cour teously treated or made to feel that she was welcome. . At several of them she met with actual rudeness. At one Kpiscopal church she "did not encoun ter a friendly glance or smile," nor did two men and a lady who left when she 3 id', offer her an umbrella, although it was raining. At a fashionable Baptist rhuich, possibly because she was "wet and shabby." she remained unnoticed. "1 thought," she declares naively, "all would rush forward and shake my hand to gather me In." At a well-attended Presbyterian church, while a printed programme told her how cour teous the "iiRheVs" were, she "received not a nod of recognition, not a smile, not a passing word." At a Congrega tional tabernacle, where "the bright sunyhlne accentuated' her shabby at tire, no one smiled or spoke to her, nltliough, as she went out. one woman took her hand. In some places where CALHQU the seats were free and nobody mo lested her, she still felt aggrieved be cause she got no welcome from clergy man, usher or woman. Every one should sympathize with Miss Smith and all other strangers, within our gates who go seeking the bread of the usher's smiles and words, and who receive only the stone of back seats and cold silence. But Rev. Dr. Akcd Beeraa to have been somewhat nettled at the account given by this lady of her reception at the church of which he Is the minister, and he spoke In his sermon of Sunday with some rudeness of her quest after politeness. He' called her "unpleasant." said she "rushed 'around like a mad person," and furthermore Intimated that she was one of those who are forever telling us how oad things are, without making any effort to improve them. For these accusations. Miss Smith in her narra tive gives no ground whatever; on the contrary, she seems to have acted with civility, and the fact that she wrote the article proves that she is doing what she can to correct the evil if evil It be. Moreover, we think that Dr. Aked meets her criticism mistaken ly when he says that she expected too much and was properly disappointed for teat is virtually his reply, ous. It is hoped that Miss Smith may try her experiment again. She has adminis tered a sharp. If undeserved, "reproof Doubtless the next time she goes to church, even If the day be wet, the pas tor will shake her hand and ask her to Sunday dinner, the ushers will Invite her to the young ladies' sewing society and the Lookout committee will not let her leave until her hands are filled with "leaflets" and "special appeals." In short, she will be treated almost as well as If she wore an Easter bonnet. WIELDS POWER OF MOSES RABBI WOLMSAY, OF NEW YORK, IS FAMOUS MAX. Still Keen at 105, Has 54 Descend ants, Eats One Meal a Day and i Smokes Incessantly. NEW YORK. Oct. 9. (Special Cor respondence.) Nltjety-five years ago Rabbi Barnett Wolnisky, now in his 106th year, saw the broken columns of Napoleon retreat from Moscow. Last Sunday night he was present .at the marriage of his great-granddaughter and took as keen an interest in the ceremony as any of his 54 descendants who were present. He is a remarkable man, is Rabbi Wolnisky. perhaps as remarkable as any resident of this big town, while in the East Side he wields a power over his people as great as that exercised in the days when, the prophets were supreme and were the absolute rulers Of their tribes. Sharp-eyed, vigorous, mentally active, learned In the Tal mud and all the sacred writings, mas ter of seven languages, the rabbi, al though no longer practicing his rab binical duties, save the performance of marriages, is the spiritual father to thousands of the followers of his faith. He is the Moses of a great faction of his people in New York, and "is decis ions draw acclaim for their shrewd ness even from those who find defeat in his Judgments. Born in Kobrine, in the State of Grodno, Russian Poland, he moved about with his parents in early youth and so came to see the ice-beaten regi ment of the little corporal falling back from Moscow. Marrying early, he set tled in Antipole and traded in liquor, most of his life in Russia being spent in the wholesale liquor business. He prospered and 12 children were born to him and his first wife before he left Russia for America some 25 years ago. His wife dying and his business being destroyed, he and his two sons sought these shores. Wolnlsky's business ruin in Antipole began when Alexander II was assassi nated in 1881. Alexander III, who was by nature Inclined to mild . measures, fell under true influence of the leaders of the old regime, and in a period of repression which the activity of the revolutionists seemed to demand the Russian soldiery were more aggres sive than ever. Cossacks broke Into Wolnlsky's es tablishment In 1S81, drank all they could swallow and opened every barrel in his well-filled cellar. When they went on their way he was ruined. He at once determined to leave the coun try. In the East Side here he was Immedi ately recognized asa person of extra ordinary learning ana he was elected rabbi of the Eldrldge-street Synagogue,! which place he held for many years, retiring only two years ago, upon the death of his second wife. He removed at that time to the residence of a son, who lives at 238 Thadford avenue, East New York, and now lives there. Wolnlsky's second wife was 22 years old when, at the age of 65, he married her. They had 15 children. He has 92 living direct descendants, of whom 54 are in this city or state or in New Jersey. The others are in Russia; His descendants have been increasing at a rate of 12 a year for two or three years. He knows the name of every one of them, and never forgets their birthdays. He rises every morning at 4 o'clock and has a few glasses of tea and a pipeful of Mohoke tobacco, imported from Russia, for breakfast. He uses three pipes one for the street, one for the house and a third for smoking In bed. This last has a big bowl and a long stem, the bowl resting on the floor. He has never been 111. but eight, years ago was run down while cross ing Canal street by a Fire Chief's bug gy. A wheel passed over his ankle, breaking the bones, and when it healed that leg was a trifle shorter than the other, making it necessary to wear on It a shoe with a very thick sole. Rabbi Wolnisky is an inveterate pipe-smoker. He smokes before he arises in the morning, he smokes all day and he smokes again before he re tires for the night. He drinks daily about 40 glasses of strong tea, and takes it without milk. Hi drinks neither water nor liquor, as a rule, and Indulges In but one meal each day. This consists of soup, bread and a little meat, and is eaten at noon. Steel's Output Climbs Up. Wall Street Journal. Here are a few steel mileposts: In 18S0 we were consuming a million tons of steel, and thought we were doing big things. Twenty years later the needs of this country required 14,000,000 tons, and this year will call for 25,000.000 tons. In twenty-seven years the country's steel demands have Increased 23 times. The railway mileage of. the country alone now eats up 2.000,000 tons a year, whereas a quarter of a century ago the annual steel consumption of the United States for all uses was only half that amount.

HIS WILL-SET ASIDE Nelson Morris ' Heirs Ignore Trust Provision. DIVIDE ESTATE EQUALLY Edward Morris Yields After Stub born Resistance to Demands of Rest of Family Each of Five Gets $6,000,000. CHICAGO, Oct. 15. A JSO.OOO.OOO will contest that was argued and settled out of court was disclosed yesterday when the last testament of Nelson Morris, the packer, was filed for probate. As the result of this remarkable situation the principal provision of the will has befen nullHi' d Instead of carrying out an ar rant, ; . t which would have held the bulk o.r -he estate in trust for at least 15 years. . widow and her four children will di .".o the property equally among themselves at once. Instead of $500,000 and an annuity of J15.000 during the njxt 20 years, each ot the five principal heirs will receive at once JC,000,OoO In cash and securities. Furthermore, It became known that bj fore the will was tiled each of the heirs secured title to a fifth part of the es tate. This property was allotted in equal shares to the widow and the children in a binding agreement signed by the ex ecutors of the estate. When tha trust ar rangement had thus been wiped out the will was filed. Ever since Nelson Morris died, n?arly two months ago, a serious though friend ly debate over his will has been going on In the family. On one side, seeking to ahrosata the trust plan under which they would not have come into their inher itance for from 15 to 20 years, were ranged the widow and three of the children, Mrs. Maurice L. Rothschild, Mrs. Henry C. Schwab and Ira Nelson Morris. On, the other side, peeking to carry out the provisions of the will un der which he would have been In control of the estate, stood Edward Morris, tha eldest son and the present head of the Morris Packing Corporation. It was simply a case of divergence of opinion. The argument over the disposition of the packer's millions reached a point where lawyers were retained by the op posing factions in the family and a long drawn-out legal contest was threatened. Finally Edward Morris met the views of the rest of the family and an amicable agreement setting aside the trust plan and providing for' an immediate division of the property .was signed by all the heirs. The business, however, will be con tinued as at present, with Edward Morris in control. BENEFIT FROM FORESTS. Dalance Now on Right Side West Is Chief Gainer. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, Oct. 14. "Within three decades after the first Federal recognition of forestry, and sixteen years from the date when the first 'timberland re serve' was created, there have been established, in the interest of the whole people, 150,000,000 acres of National forests, effectively protected against fire and trespass, and thrown open on advantageous terms to the use of the public." Thus reads the annual review of forest work in the Yearbook of the Department of Agriculture.

Xet it will always be the Western industries which will most proiit from the pres-. ence of the existing National forests, upon whose resources mainly wood, water and range they are largely de pendent. The Government always favors settlers and home-buildors and prior users, both by granting free use of timber and by encouraging small sales. The business of the National forests must increase largely; for so vast are the resources of timber and minerals, and the opportunities for various business enterprises and for the development of power and irriga tion, that the utilization of the forests can be said to have only fairly begun. - Yielded Profit Last Year. "Throughout the year marked prog ress has been made in securing the most prompt, simple, and precise busi ness methods, and in bringing the for est officers In the field and, through them, the public into closer touch with the aims of the Government in its for est policy. On January 1, 1906, the area of the National forests was 97, "tlZfiVl acres, and on December 21, 1906, 127.154,371 acres; but the receipts Increased in greater proportion from $273,6110 in 1935 to $1,004,185 in 1906. In addition, 1.300 permittees (near-by settier3 and ranchmen) were granted timber free of charge to the value of $75,000.

"In disposing of timber on the Na tional forests, every effort has been made to meet the local conditions in each forest and in the different' parts of each forest where the character of the timber and the market require special consideration. This has been done, not only by varying the size of the trees which are cut under the sales In ac cordance with the kind of timber and the situation, but also by supplying the needs of the people In each vicinity with the particular kind of timber re quired by them in their industries.- "The institution of a chargre for grazing In the forests, with the adop tion of regulations to prevent damage to the range, and with satisfactory al lotments of territory, both between the cattle-owners and between individual owners of the same kind of stock, were important accomplishments of the year. "Planting operations are at present centered in eight nurseries withfn or near as many different forests. There are now on hand a total of 6,000,000 seedlings, and 7."0 acres were planted in the Spring of 1907. Four of the nurseries have been established long enough to griw seedlings of size for planting'. ' Telephone Unes and Roads. ''Better facilities for communication, through public and private telephone lines now being constructed and the improvement of roads, will be of the greatest assistance in the conduct of forest business, and especially in the control of fires. The use of the for ests by the public will also be stimu lated by the marking of roads and trails, giving the direction and dis tance to the nearest town, ranch or camping place. "Tha record Of 1906 has confirmed the business success of the Govern ment policy, and thus given encourage ment to the development of the tech nical side of forestry.

NOT SO RUSTY AFTER ALL Old French Dredge Doing Good Serv ice on Canal. WASHINGTON, Oct. 15. Advices from Panama say: By the expenditure of $20,000 for labor and material an old French ladder or elevator dredge, which had been lying In the Rio Grande River, above La Boca, for more than 20 years, has been restored in every part so that it is now capable of excavating 120,000 cubic yards of material per month, an amount equivalent to that removed by fou- 95-ton five-yard steam shovels. This dredge, when in service at the La Boca entrance of the canal, will do more work than a modern dipper dredge costing $102,503." In reconstructing the dredge all the es sential parts used were French. These were round In the jingle or among other old French plants scattered along the line of the canal. The three boilers, which have been installed in place of the two original, ones, were found in the jungle near San Pablo, where they had been lying for more than 20 years. They were in excellent condition, free from corro sion, and all bearings and fittings were in good working order. The two cylin ders also came from the junrjle, and were si o - I - ....

Their valves had to be reset and new rings fitted, oth erwise they were In as good condition as when new. The engine, which had re mained in the hull, was In excellent con dition, and could not be surpassed by modern machinery, both as to adjustment and economy ot operation. The copper piping on all the machinery Is of very heavy design, and shows much more care ful workmanship than Is found in modern machinery. The remarkable preservation of this machinery was due in the first place to the high quality of material used In construction, and in the second place to the use of white lead and grease, which covered the parts and excluded the air. ' The dredge is of the ladder or elevated type, similar to the old Scotch dredge A2, which was reconstructed five years ago and was out of commission for repairs less than 40 days during that time. Another old French dred;re of similar type is now being reconstructed. Indlas Indigo Industry. London Echo.

Billions Drop In Stocks. Wall Street Journal.

Applying this to the entire capitalization of stocks and bonds of the railroad and industrial corporations of the country, and tha apparent depreciation in prices amounts to about five billions of dollars.

Albert Oleman, the 14-year-old boy who killed his foster-mother. Mrs. Sarah Ayers, December 26, 1906, en tered a plea of guilty in the second de gree when brought before Judge Mc Brlde late this afternoon. As the lunacy commission decided the boy was sane and responsible for his crime, it was thought necessary to place the lad on trial for murder in the first degree, but as it was the general belief that conviction would have been Impossible before a Jury, an agreement was reached between the Prosecuting Attorney and the defendant's council whereby a plea of guilty in the second degree was entered. Judge McBride will certify these facts to the County Judge and the lat ter will commit him to the Reform School, where he will remain until the age of 21. According to the expressed otylnlon of the alienists he will make a model inmate of that institution, but will always retain his murderous pro clivities and when released will be a dangeroue man, liable at any time to repeat his youthful crime.
