3 THE .MORXISG ' OREGOXIAX, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 20, 1920 WALLOWA SLAYER IS BELIEVED CAUGHT Angus McBain, Arrested in Canada, May Be 'James G.' MAN HELD FOR SHERIFF Extradition to Be Sought Slay Ins Committed Fifteen Tears Ago. KDMONTOX, Alt.. Feb. 19. (Spe ; elaL) Angus McBain. 45 years old. charged with the murder of two brothers named Trost in 'Wallowa ! county. Oregon, in 1905. and for sev ! eral years a rancner In the Grande ; Prairie district, was arrested by Con stable Powers of the Alberta provin- ! cial police yesterday. Just as he was aboot to leave Spirit river to Join bis family in this city. McBain's arrest was effected as a result of the work of Constable Powers, who has been in the north country for the last nine months. Aernard Mas Shadowed. Information received by Powers was to the effect that McBain was be lieved to be the man wanted in Wal lowa county for the murder of the two brothers no less than 15 years ago. A careful watch of the man was carried on. a full description as to bis general makeup being later forwarded to the police authorities of Wallowa . county by a return wire. Superin tendent of the Alberta police, W. C. Bryan, then received the following telceram: "Hold on a charge of mur der James G. McBain, whom you de scribe. Arrest, hold and wire me." Immediately following the man's arrest information concerning the action was sent to the United States authorities, the police asking that a sheriff be trent to Edmonton by the first outgoing train. Description Is Fitted. Although McBain denies be is the man wanted, the Alberta police here declare that the description furnished by the Wallowa county police authori ties confirms their opinion that they have the wanted man. The only action that the local po lice will take from now on will be to place McBain in the cells of the Ed monton jail to await the arrival of the Wallowa county sheriff, who will lnntitute proceedings for extradition. The police here state that McBain had been in the Peace river country for some time and that apart from dealing in cattle he had also been an ' employe on Northern Railway con struction work. Evidently the' alleged murderer is known in Oregon as James G. McBain. TROST BROTHERS MURDERED Two Indictments for Slaying Re turned Against Melialn. ENTERPRISE, Or., Feb. 19. (Spe cial.) James H. McBain is wanted for " the murder of the Trost brothers in Grossman, northern part of Wallowa county April 10, 1905. McBain came to this county from Grand Junction, Colo, in March of thai year and se lected a piece of government land in a district not yet open to entry. He then went back to Colorado, and in his absence Charles Trost came from Kentucky and squatted on the same land that McBain had wanted. A brother. Theodore Trost, had pre viously settled in the neighborhood. When advised that others had set- tied on the land, McBain came back from Colorado and hastened to Gross man. He found the two brothers on the disputed land and shot and killed both of them. When arrested hi claimed he had killed them In self defense after they bad refused to leave the land, but at the trial strong circumstantial evidence was produced to support the state's contention that he had hidden behind a loff and shot them from ambush. Two indictments were returned against McBain. one for the murder of each of the brothers. He was tried on one Indictment at a special term of the circuit court, and on May 20, 1905, was found guilty of murder in the second degree on a compromise verdict, and was sentenced to life 'm prisonment. After a few years, how ever, he was pardoned and imme diately disappeared. The second in dictment has remained on the county records and a search for the man has been conducted quietly ever since- LOVE COULDN'T BE BOUGHT (Continued From First Pag.) Schuebel's office and confronted with the complaint. They had had some words two days before the suit was filed and he complained, he said, when she would not get up and have breakfast with him, and told her she had two girls in the house and little to do. Girls Thea Are Dismissed. "I don't care whether the girls stav here or not." the witness testified his wire nad said, so he dismissed them. She asked, he said, what he would personally receive from the sale of his stock, in the event the mill should be sold, and when he told her the amount would be $110,000 she ap peared to be disappointed because it would not be more. His wife had told him, he said, that her father had threatened to "blow his bead off be cause he had heard that Willard had struck his wife at Los Angeles, so he went to Portland to see his father-in-law, C. E. Fraker. and brought him home to Sunday dinner, with Mr. and Mrs. Miles, the latter being his wife s sister. They had a fine dinner and everything was pleasant, said Mr. Hawley.- "Have you seen your baby since the suit was filed" asked Mr. Allen. "Yes; every day. About a month ago I went to the house and the baby was ill. I thoucht. so I called two physicians and found the child had a fever with a temperature of 103.8, and installed a trained nurse, who was with her nine days." How has your wife dressed sines this trial started?" asked tbe attor ney. Wife's Dram Criticised. "She Is wearing the poorest clothes She has," declared Mr. Hawley. glanc lng at the plaintiff, a few feet away. Shortly before court adjourned this afternoon C. D. Latourette commenced to cross-examine the defendant, who described his first meeting with Mrs. Hawley. He said he fell in love with her at sight and Induced Oscar Wood- Iin to introduce them at her home. After he had known her three weeks he told her he loved her, he saw her every day and In four months they were engaged and were married two months later. "Did you ever have any epats before you were engaged?" asked Mr. La tourette. "We had one just before Christmas and I debated whether I would send her a box of candy or not and I fi nally did. "It didn't cost much? suggested the attorney. "Oh. no, about US or $20,- replied v uiard. "You did your best before this suit was filed to patch things up with anarJorieT" said Latourette. 50-50 Proposal Too Macb- "Until this 50-50 proposal came up I did," answered Hawley. "When we were married I promised her I would never leave her and she promised she would never leave me." How strong were the bonds of af fection between bis wife and himself were related this morning by young Hawley on direct examination. "We always got along pretty well," he said. "We hugged and kissed every night and morning and when I would leave the house and when 1 would return." "It is a moot question," observed Harrison Allen, "as to what a soul kiss Is. Did these kisses denote af fection or were they a matter ot form V "Some of our kisses lasted longer than the board of censorship would allow," replied the defendant. "Then they were the real thing like Mr. Latourette experienced in the days of yore, observed Allen, refer ring to one of the plaintiffs attor neys. Kndearins; Terms Recalled. "Before we were married she called me Dear Heart and Lover Doll, and she called me Loveman after mar riage. I called her Baby Doll quite a bit on account of her round baby face." "Then you found her to be the real kissing: bug of all the girls you have ever had?" "Yes." "Did she ever object?" "No, except she did not want me to bite her tongue." Mr. Hawley denied that he had threatened to throw his wife out of the house and her trunk after her. as she bad charged. He added that his wife had never had a trunk, but she did have a hope chest. In response to an objection that his questions were leading, Mr. Allen said the defense was trying to show that the quarrels of the pair were such as frequently occur in many families, and that they were speedily forgiven and forgotten. The de fendant testified that after these in cidents he was penitent and thought them silly and trivial. Hot Tamale Case Cited. The "hot tamale" Incident was related from the standpoint of the defense this morning and Mr. Hawley stepped from the witness chair and gave an illustration of how his wife had "butted" him and that he had returned the compliment. This oc curred about a week before the suit was filed. He denied having threat ened to break down the door of their bedroom, stating that his wife had not gone upstairs at all after their row over the tamale can, Mrs. Hawley having testified that her husband TRADE ENDANGERED Secretary of Commerce Is Against Cut in Funds. FOREIGN ATTACHES TO GO United States "Would Be Badlj Handicapped in Commercial War, Declares Alexander. WASHINGTON. D. C Feb. 19. American trade with the world is en dangered by the action of the appro priations committee In cutting the foreign trade estimates of the depart ment of commerce from $1,658,000 to $490,000, Secretary Alexander declared today. "This Is , tbe most serious blow ever aimed from within at our foreign trade," the secretary said. "The sum allowed is only one-half of the appro priation now used. At the very time when European and Japanese governments are- striv ing strenuously to perfect their trade- promoting machinery through enor mously increased appropriations, this bill proposes to scrap the American machine, the most effective and smoothest running that any govern ment has ever been able to assemble. America Will Be Handicapped. "At the very time when our rivals have an almost overwhelming trade advantage in exchange'rates, this bill proposes to handicap American man ufactures by practically withdrawing the helping hand of the government Almost on the day when our merchant marine becomes a fact, it is virtually announced that foreign trade is not worth supporting.1 Funds for the promotion of trade in the far east are cut in half, he added stating that this means "a great slackening of effort" in a district where Japan, Germany and England are redoubling their efforts. "The great markets of the east will return a thousand-fold every dollar this government spends there, he said: "The effect of the bill is theabo lition of the departments commercial attaches and the reduction in the number of foreign trade commission ers despite the rapidly changing con ditions in Europe and the critical re construction departments with which they have kept American manufactur ers In touch. 'As a result of the cut in appropri ations," he said, "District offices must be abolished in New York, Boston, Chicago, St. Louis, New Orleans, San Francisco. Seattle, Baltimore, Phila delphia, Pittsburg, Cincinnati, Dayton, Los Angeles and Portland, Or." Commercial Attaches to Go. "The bill aims to abolish the com mercial attaches entirely," Secretary Alexander said. "This service was established in 1914 at the request of American business. It has won the approval and respect of American business. As now conducted, it costs $165,000. a trifling and inadequate sum. There is not an office in the service that does not turn in more than that every year in actual busi ness and the contracts by American houses through some of the offices run into the millions of dollars. That Is taking into account only the pro motion work that can be figured In us. largely account for the high total. The sub-treasuries which would be abolished at the end of this year are at Baltimore, New York. Philadelphia, Boston. Cincinnati, Chicago, St. Louis, New Orleans and San Francisco. The surveyors-general to be discarded on June 30 next would include those in Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico. Ore gon, South Dakota, Utah, Washington. Wyoming and Alaska. The assay of fices at Deadwood. S. D., and Salt Lake City would be closed June 30. Reductions made by the committee are general throughout the govern ment service and include some self imposed economies on the part of con gress, there being cuts aggregating $400,000 in the amount pent by con gress for miscellaneous services, in cluding employes. No new government services are es tablished by the bill, and the request of the department of commerce for enlargement of the foreign and do mestic commerce bureau by appoint ment of additional field agents in the far east.

Investigation by General Borree Reveals Startling Condition in Southern State. SACRAMENTO, Cal., Feb. 19. (Spe cial) That all revolvers and other firearms which it is possible to con ceal on the person are being bought up by "those who have allied them selves with the forces of unrest in California, to overthrow the govern ment and institute a reign of anar chy, was the statement of Adjutant General J. J. Borree upon his return to Sacramento today from a tour of the state. General Borree states that from an investigation of pawnshops where second-hand guns usually are easily acquired, he has learned that practi cally all revolvers In such places of business have been sold within the last few weeks, until it is now pos sible to purchase them only at pro hibitivo prices. "The conclusion Is self-evident,1 stated the commander of the Califor nia national guard. "Radicals in Cali fornia as elsewhere are supplying themselves with arms and spreading unrest while the officers ot the law have relapsed into an apathy which approaches indifference and threat ens the safety of the nation." The citizens of California do not realize the seriousness of the situation. Everywhere I am confronted with a cry for the abandonment of the na tional guard and the institution of universal military training, but it is my firm belief that it is Imperative that we have an efficient fighting force at home until tbe federal gov ernment acts."

"At least 15 trade commissioners who are reporting on rapidly chang ing trade conditions in European countries from Denmark to Austria, will have to be recalled by the first of May. For promoting trade in the far east the cut amounts to 50 per cent. "If this bill is passed as it stands ( I shall have to close up almost all tne district and co-operative offices in this country.

He denied ever having demanded his freedom, but said he had suggested that they separate for a few days, "Maybe it would be better for" us to separate and divide the baby up," he testified to having told her. "On the night of the Price store fire we had" a spat and I suggested that we each go to our respective parents for a few days, and perhaps absence would make the heart grow fonder." he said He testified that they would have a quarrel and then would make up and that when the slate was wiped clean everything was lovely again. Hawley Kept "Strapped." The question of her allowance of $50 a month for clothes and spending money was taken up again, and the young husband said that before she was placed on an allowance bis wife had spent so much money on clothes and shoes that she kept him "strapped," so they both set the fig ure at $50. Numerous letters and telegrams were presented in evidence to prove their affection for each other. One of these was read. It having been written by Mr. Hawley at Oakland. CaL. July 18. 1917. as follows: "Dearest Baby Lover Doll : "Just got home a little before C from San Francisco and got your angel letter saying you tried to send my suit right and it is all right, dear. Why, honey, I was just thinking I could never have any more fun with out you. No matter what you did, I never could stay away from you, no matter how awful it was. for I would pine away without you. I worship you more than words can tell. I am so lonesome for you, baby heart. "I am all alone and am going to leave for the T. and D. theater in a minute, so you must forgive my short letter, but honey, this is the second letter today! Why, I am so wild about you I could crush you in my arms with hugs, and honey. I feel bad ev ery time I think you don't like my tongue any more. Oh. please, honey love, like it like you used to. I know I am not as good to you as I should be, but honey, I worship you so much I never could leave you in my life. "Well, good by, boney, and you will let me kiss your tongue just once when I get home, won't you? I em afraid my kisses don't taste so good any more. But you love me, honey. Always and always. Good by, angel love. All my love and I would give you anything I had. sweetheart dear. "Honey, don't think this letter is foolish, but I feel so lonesome I had to write it Lovingly, "LOVEMAN." One note of Mr. Hawley to hie wife concerns their dogs. It is ' headed "Special message note well," and says: "Honey: "Feed Dora and Prince well. Ton see to It yourself. Don't depend on anyone else. I want to see them nice and fat. Give them my regards, also to Tinnie and Miss Roberta. Willard."

Govern ment warehouses for storage of dis tilled spirits, as adjuncts to enforcing prohibition, would be authorized under a bill introduced today by Senator Warren, republican, Wyoming. WASHINGTON, Feb. 19. Bitter partisan debate on tbe fraud charges against Senator Newberry, republican, Michigan, took up much of the sen ate's time today as yesterday, pre cipitated by Senator Sherman, repub lican, of Illinois, continuing bis at tacks on Henry Ford, the defeated democratic candidate. Senator Watson, republican. In diana, called a meeting for Monday of the sub-committee appointed to recount the ballots in the contested election. Senator Sherman Included the mem bers of Mr. Ford's family, the auto mobile which he manufactures, and all his activities in his vigorous at tack. He declared Mr. Ford had furthered his financial and political fortunes by enlisting the services of the government. Senator Is Rebuked. The Illinois senator was taken sharply to task by Senators Stanley of Kentucky and Walcott. of Dela ware, both democrats, who declared he had violated senate decorum, the latter charging that Senator Sherman has been "addressing a jury in Michi gan," for which he would have been in contempt of court if done in that. Setting himself up as "one of those persons who knew everything instan taneously from birth." Senator Sher man said Mr. Ford had reared a "financial moloch," had obtained con gressional aid In .acquiring and im proving land for private purposes and had enlisted the services of the fed eral government in promoting his po litical interests in Michigan, while bis son, Edsel, was making good his es cape from the military draft. "And I may say," said the senator, "that I regard the Ford automobile as an international pest. It destroys more useful material than any other sinkhole In the world. It is a waste of time and substance." Aid to Ford Is Charred. "The government at best." he con tinued, "has become a philanthropic institution for the beneft of Mr. Ford. It continually is engaged in promoting his interests financially and politi cally." The senator declared Ford had found the federal government ma chinery inadequate, however, in pros ecuting the Michigan senatorial case and that "literally hundreds of Ford's private agents were swarming about the Grand Rapids trial "scrutinizing every nook and corner within a hun dred miles of the courtroom." In some ways. Senator Sherman said, he regretted that Mr. Ford did not become a senator, "for a greater refrigerator for his effervescent brain does not exist" than the senate cham ber adding that nothing would "cure him better than talking to empty benches." Impropriety Is Alleged. Senator Stanley, democrat, Ken tucky, replying to Senator Sherman, declared the Illinois senator had vio lated every propriety by some of his references. This brought a protest from Senator Townsend, republican, Michigan, who' said the facts in the Newberry case would be disclosed during the trial and that senators should refrain from any discussion of it. Senator Walcott, democrat, Dela ware, said Senator Sherman had made the first reference to the case and that throughout his talk had been addressing a "jury in Michigan." Such an address. If rendered in Michi gan, he said, "would render the sen ator from Illinois in contempt of court and liable to penitentiary imprisonment." Our Store Opens at 9 A. M.
