BAKER'S MURDER WORK OF GANG Henry Rost, Companion of Dead Man, Tells Police Story of the Crime. STRANGERS FORCE FIGHT Party of Well-Dressed Young Men Accused of Following Inoffensive Pair Help Summoned and Relatives Notified. Th mvatarlous death of Adam Baker. which occurred shortly after he was taken to the Multnomah County Hos pital Sunday morning by a stranger who did not reveal his identity, has assumed the aspect of a Bang murder. After working- on the case unremit tingly since it was turned over to him Sunday forenoon. Detective Howell has succeeded in locating the man who took Baker to the hospital, and In determining the Identity of the dead man. which had only been suspected. Together with Howell. Detective Hell yer is endeavoring to disclose the identity of the six well-dressed young rowdies who beat and kicked Baker to death at Second and Yamhill streets, after following Baker and his com panion from a point near Third and Washington streets without apparent provocation. The man who took Baker to the hospital was R. Rost. a cementworker who lives at 99 Front street, and is now in the employ of George Lang ford, a general contractor. Baker was a painter, who. for the last two years, lias been a member of a painting crew In the employ of the Spokane. Portland & Seattle Railway and the Oregon Electric Railway. For the last few days, however, he had been working on a Job at the Courthouse. Baker Baa Relatives Here. Two rnusins of Baker live in Portland, N. A. Boody. advertising manager for a local mercantile establishment, and Dr. Fred F. Boody. a dentist. His mother, Mrs. J. E. Baker, lives in Oak land. CaL. and several brothers. Bisters and "other relatives live there and In other parts of California. According to the story told Detec tive Kellyer yesterday by Rost. he had been in company with Baker, with whom he was acquainted, since 10 o'clock Saturday night, and was walk ing along Third street wltn mm on their way home together at the time of the trouble. Walklnz along Third street, said Rost. they came upon a group of young m.n. wall dressed, in front ot House's Restaurant, between Washington and Alder streets, who accosted them in a rough manner as they were passing. Rost said that he and his friend tried to avoid trouble, but the gang per istci In following them. Rost and Baker walked to Morrison street, where Rost asked a passerby ir he nao seen a policeman In that vicinity. When the man accosted replied In the nega tive, the two walked to Second street, and thence to Yamhill, to catch a Ful ton car. but the gang persisted in ioi lowlng them. Victim Knocked Down. When they reached this corner. Rost told the detectives, the gang set upon them and succeeded In knocking Baker down. Rost. who Is heavy set, was busy defending himself. He was hit several times, he says, but managed to bold his own. and the hoodlums gave most of their attention to Bauer, iney kicked Baker when he was down, and then ran along Yamhill street toward First Rost told of the beating admin istered by the gang, their departure and the subsequent trip to Multnomah County Hospital. Here Baker's wounds were hastily dressed, and a Red Cross ambulance waa summoned. Baker died on the way to St. Vlnoenfs Hospital, about 25 minutes after having reached the Multnomah County Hospital. Relatives Are Informed. It developed yesterday that the per son who called up the Multnomah County Hospital In the evening. In quiring about Baker, was Dr. Boody, one of his cousins. Rost had gone to Dr. Boody Sunday and Informed him of the circumstances. He did not know that Baker was dead, and believed that his cousins would attend to him. Boody was not informed by the hospital at t.nflHntll of t he facts. They simply told him there was no one there of that name, and that a man HM Deen sent to St. Vincent's Hospital early in the morning that might have been Baker. They did not tell him the man was dead. The police are dissatisfied with the lack of concern that was shown by Multnomah County Hospital authori ties In the matter. Had they secured the name of the. Inquirer as requested, say the police, the relatives and Baker's companion could have been got in touch with Sunday, and the case would have been nearer solution by at least a day. Although the police are unable to understand why the members of the gang should have assaulted Baker and Rost without provocation, they are in clined to believe bis story, on account of other circumstances. The ract that Rost Immediately hunted up the rela tives of Baker Sunday also tends to substantiate his tale. They cannot understand how such an occurrence as related In that part of town could have escaped the attention of an officer, and that feature will be Investigated more thoroughly. Detectives Hellyer and Howell have good descriptions of several members of the gang, and, from Information se cured from other sources, are on a trail which they believe will lead to the capture of several of the members speedily.

Wood Likens State to Ex tension of Home Where Woman's Voice Should Have Equal Right With Brother. Speeches in which common sense and logical arguments blended harmoni ously with dry humor and occasional sarcasm marked the second of the pop ular suffrage luncheons yesterday at the Imperial HoteL Aside from C. E. S. Wood, the speakers were from the press, and their unanimity on the ques tion of equal franchise brought unal loyed Joy to members of the College Equal Suffrage League and their friends who had assembled In foroe. During the enrollment of new mem bers and the collection of subscriptions at the close, it was announced that "Bill" Hanley had sent 1100, with a re quest that all suffragists would call on him when in his partof the state. At the opening of his address. C. S. Jackson refused to liken himself to C E. S. Wood, who "talks whenever he gets a chance," adding this was the first occasion on which he had ever talked to more than one woman at a time. After declaring he put no faith in arguments, either for or against the movement he admitted that he had voted for the movement already, tnat he would vote for the suffrage amend ment again at the next election and added that In his opinion the women would win.
