The preliminary examination of Otis
Savag-t began yesterday before Justice
Davis. Unlph ii)ona w as also present,
though bis examination will not begin
till Savuge's ends. All day crowds
hung around the justice's ollice, await
ing the appearance of the prisoners.
The attention of the justice w as occu
pied until 4 o'clock with the extortion
case against II. Uaedicke from Dufur.
It was I! o'clock before this was con
cluded, and then the crowd was reward
ed by hearing the robbery cases called.
The throng in the small oflice was eo
great that a suggestion was made to ad
journ to the courthouse, where the trial
was held. The circuit courtroom was
completely filled w ith spectators. The
state was represented by Pros. Atty.
Jayne nnd Deputy i. W. Phelps.
There appeared for the defense Messrs.
Huntington and Wilson nnd A. S. Pen
nett. The prisoners have secured a fino
combination of legal talent, and a bitterly-fought
cast? can easily be foreseen.
Much deiay was caused by witnesses
not being present. The prosecution was
somewhat taken aback when if. S. Wil
son asked for an order from the cuurt
excluding from the room all witnesses
except the one on the stand. Mr.
Jayne didn't have all the etato witnesses
subpienaed, and had to ask for time.
Mr. Wilson insisted on the rule being
enforced, but Mr. Jayne made an es
pecial request that Mr. Gen Inch, the
superintendent of the express company,
be allowed to remain in the room, as it
was necessary to consult w ith bint. Mr.
Wilson suggested that they put Mr.
Geutsch on the stand first, and obviate
the difficulty in that way. Mr. Jayne
didn't wish it done that way, and finally
Justice Davis allowed the request and
Mr. (ientscb staid in. The other ex
press officials and detectives filed out.
More time was then taken in waiting
for witnesses.
Savage seemed the coolest nnd least
concerned person in the room, lie read
the newspaper and seemed only casu
ally interested in the proceedings. HiB
self-possession will go a long ways w ith
the jury. He was naturally the object
of all eyes, but be didn't seem to know
it, or if fie did gave no evidence that it
bothered him in the least. Finally all
the subptrnas were served and the first
step in the most important and sensa
tional trial in the history cf Wasco
county began. The prominence of the
parties, the confession of Klein, and the
ability of the lawyers in the esse, all
tend to make the interest intense.
THE EVIDENCE.
Kdwin Kurtz, the first witness on
the part of the state, was the messenger
that brought the money from Portland
Octolter 13th Received two sucks of
gold and three sacks of silver from the
Portland office ; made onr way bills and
placed the money in the treasure box.
At The Dalles the train pulled some dis
tance past the depot and the express
was slow in being transferred to the
wagon. Agent Hill came and receipted
for all express matter, including the
money. A special receipt form was
made out for the banks to sign. Wit
ness stated the coin was all consigned to
French & Co ; the amount was $15,000.
Witness is now agent at The Dalles
office, and succeeded F. E. Hill. Mr.
Kurtz was shown the eacka which were
said to contain the money, and identi
fied some of them. The seals were torn
off and they were muddy and otherw ise
damaged. As given to the agent the
tw o sacks held 7 ,500 and $5,000 each ;
the three sacks of silver contained
1,000, $500 and $1,000 respectively.
Pros. Atty. Jayne conducted tho direct
examination and Hon. II. S. Wilson
did the cross questioning. The testi
mony of this witness was merely to lay
a foundation, and contained nothing
startling.
THE AUENT's STOKY.
F. N. Hill was the next witness called.
In anawe to questions by Mr. Jayne he
stuted be had lived in The Dalies since
November 1, 1887; been in the employ
of Pucific F'xpresa Co. during that tint;
previously ran three years as messenger
from Portland to Huntington: took out
the first express run on the O. K. & N.
On the 13th of October Chas. Tibbets,
the express driver, wished to go to the
dance ; gave him permission. Was
busy making out reports till nearly train
time; about ft r. m. was told by Vivian
French that money would be up from
Portland on the midnight train. Hill
went up Second street and saw Otis Sav
age and Ralph Giboua sitting on the
aidealk rail by John Hertz'a store; he
called Gibona aside and told him about
the coming of the money. On this point
Mr. Hill waa closely cross-examined by
Mr. Wilson, and stated that it was pos
sible for Savage to have heard what he
said. In response to questions Mr. Hill
said that Mr. Crum also beard Mr.
French tell him about the money. Af
ter the train came in Hill and Gibona
rode on the wagon and got the express ;
Frank Connelly and VA Howell put the
treasure-box on the wagon. When they
arrived at the express office they carried
the express into the office, with the aid
of a Chinaman who happened along.
I They put the box liebind the partition
I and went to deliver the mail. As Hill
and Gibons were going to Pranner's
restaurant they met M. A. Moody re
turning from the dance. Hill told him
alsiut the money and be said lie would
le baclc quickly. After delivering the
oyetera Gibona remained in front ot the
restaurant while Hill went up Second
street. In front of Moody's hank he
met Jim Plakeney, and they together
went into the express oflice; Hill went
in first and came back exclaiming, "I
have been touched." The box w as broken
open, one sack of silver lay upon the
floor, and the way-bills were on top of
the box ; the padlock waa broken. Soon
afterwards Mr. Moody and Ralph Gib
ons joined them, and a search began.
The Chinaman who helped with the
packages waa first arrested and then re
leased. The alley was examined, and
footsteps were found and a tag from a
$1000 sa' k also. Mr. Moody measured
the tracks, and they were covered with
boards to prevent them being obliter
ated ; the search was continued till
morning.
IILAKENKY'S EVIDENCE.
City Marshal Blakeney was the next
J witness. His testimony was mainly
corroborative of Hill s; he covered the
tracks. Blakeney was at the dance all
evening and came down after the rob
bery. He went to get a "gun," while
the rest waited for him in the alley.
Blakeney had not seen either Savage or
Klein that evening.
W HAT MB. MOODV SAW.
M. A. Moody waa the last witness for
the evening. He came from the dance
and was told about the money coming
by Hill. After the robbery he joined
the searching party; he told about
measuring the footsteps ; he did it him
self and cut the size on a piece of paper.
He testified as to his acquaintance with
Savage and Klein, and that Savage was
at or:e time in business with E. Jacob
sen. Mr. Moody found the express tag
in the alley.
Today's Proceeding-"
Court resumed this morning at 9 a.
m. Mr. Zera Snow of Portland arrived
last night and was on hand to represent
the express company. The interest in
the case increased. There isn't a point
allowed to pass which isn't contested by
the defence. During the proceedings
Mr. Snow arose and asked that Sheriff.
Driver be allowed to remain in the
courtroom and assist in consultation.
Mr. Wilson and Mr. Bennett made earn
est objections, which prevailed with the
court, and Sheriff Driver bad to remain
out in the cold.
MB. T1BHETTS ON THE STAND.
L'baB. Tibbetts waa the first on the
stand. He testified to having come
from the dance and gone to the express
office; told about the various degrees of
excitement each one was in. His testi
mony was unimportant, and be was
soon told "That's all."
THE DETECTIVE NEXT.
Sam Simmons next took the stand.
Mr. Simmons is a detective, although
ho told Mr. Bennett be is not a cele
brated one. Mr. Bennett wished to as
sist bis fume, but Mr. Simmons wanted
to remain an humbledetective. His tes
timony was quite interesting in giving a
description of finding the money. He
traced the robbers from the express
oflice to where the money was hid, but
didu't find it. He also told bow be met
Ralph Gibous and Savage at the Co
lumbia hotel corner, and calling Gibons,
asked if that wasn't Savage. Gibons
said "Yes, but don't touch him."
Counsel for defence thought that was an
undetective way of going at it, but Mr.
SimmoitB said it was all tight. When
the witness waa asked if he didn't sus
pect Savage and Klein from the start,
the prosecution objected, but it was
overruled. After Sam Simmons was
through, Mr. Gentsch waa called, but
Mr. Jayne thought it would be better to
put Frank Klein on the stand, and so
be waa aent for.
THE PKINCll'LE WITNESS.
The spectatora crowded forward to
hear every word that Klein would say.
He appeared perfectly at ease and told
his story in a straightforward way. It
waa not hard to draw him out. He gave
a history of what he said were bis rela
tions to Savage and Gibons; bow they
went up on a hillside at Badger lake and
discussed the robbery scheme. Gibona
didn't want to go in it. Finally they
agreed and Klein made the key. Savage
took a pair of nippers lrom Gunning's
blacksmith shop and they got a steel bar
from the section tool box at the depot,
out of which the pry was made. They
hid the tools under the crosswalk near
the express office and waited the arrival
of the money. The night of the robbery
Klein went to bed between 9 and 10
o'clock. Savage was downtown. He
soon came and woke Klein, telling him
the money was coming. After dressing
Klein went with Savage down Third
street to the old courthouse and then
turned and went to Maetz A Pundt's
saloon. The train from Portland was
standing in front of the Umatilla House.
They then went to Harris' corner and
while there were passed by Mr. W. C.
Allaw ay. Hurrying towards the express
office they hid in the alley under on old
work bench and waited for the wagon.
The story of putting the box in the office
is the same as given by Hill. Wi.en
Hill and Gibons were gone, the two boys
hurried to the office, Savage carrying the
steel bar. Klein unlocked the door and
thev both ran to the treasure-box and

broke the lock. They first tried to pry
off the staple but failed. They then ran
out the front door and up the alley. Re
tracing their steps they went around the
back of the Cosmopolitan hotel, threw
the money under the shanty and went
home. The next dav they went and re
hid the money.
After the robbery Klein said Gibons
didn't wish to have much to do with the
other two. Klein and Savage saw him
frequently and Gibons told them they
were suspected but that if they stood pat
all would be well. The boys made up
the story that in case they were called to
account for their whereabouts that night
they would say they went up to the
dance to hear the music bnt didn't go
inside.
In this city, Thursday, Nov. 1st,
Henry Clerish, aged about 56 years.
Funeral tomorrow at 10 o'clock from
Crandall A Burget'a undertaking rooms.
Henry Clerish has resided in the city
for over .twenty years, coming herein
the early seventies. He had been a
soldier in the Twenty-third regiment,
U. S. Infantry, and came here from
Camp Watson. He kept a saloon here
for a number of years on First street,
two doors east of Frarer & Wyndhani'a
barber shops. Of late years the old
man has made a precarious living black
ing boots, having a stand nt the barber
shop named. He was known to every
body, and his funeral tomorrow w ill be
attended by many who were his friends.
In this city Wednesday, Oct. 31st,
Mrs. J. D. Lawson, aged about 4i years.
The funeral took place this afternoon
at 3 o'clock. Mrs. Lawson had been
under treatment for cancer for several
years, and returned only a siiort time
ago from Portland. She leaves, besides
her husband, three little children, aa
yet too young to realize their irreparabie
loss.
To Produce the Body.
Judge Bradshaw met himself in his
judicial capacity yesterday and listened
to some habeas corpus proceedings in
stituted by Attorney Riddell in relation
to Charles Deckerl, who had been com
mitted to jail by the justice of the peace
of Columbia precinct. Deckert was sent
to jail for thirty days, w ithout grace, for
the larceny of stern-wheel cayuse per
suaders, commonly called spurs. Not
withstanding the fact that they were
probably taken on the spur of the mo
ment, and that the offender waa only a
youth ot 10 years, the justice incarcer
ated him in the jail. The law provides
that the justice shall send to the sheriff
a certified copy of the judgment, and as
this waa not done, the proceedings were
begun and resulted in the judge decid
ing that there was no legal papers on
file on which the boy could be held, and
be was ordered released. As he had
been in jail for three or four daye, out
raged justice may be said to be satisfied,
and the boy is happy.

postoffice. The office here was robbed
the night of September 7th, but the
matter was kept quiet at the time at the
request of the postal authorities. The
mail sacks were found upon opening
the oflice in the morning, inside of the
office instead of in the hailway. The
thievea gained entrance to the building
through the back window, dragged the
sacks inside of the oflice from tho hall
way and cut them open. Four out of
six registered packages were opened and
$:18 in money secured. Mail belonging
to Tom Ward, Sheriff Driver and Regis
ter of the Land Office J. F. Moore,
and letters addressed to Mrs. M. Le
Ballister Mere opened. This is the
robbery which Klein now says was
committed by Savage, Gibons and him
self, and for which they have been ar
rested. j
A Jersey L.lly.
A Spokane deputy sheriff with the
coroner and a newspaper reporter or two
went recently to the northern boundary
of the county to open a grave on a farm
belonging to an old German named Her
mann. Hermann's boy, aged Hi yeara,
ran away some time ago and as the old
man used to thrash him occasionally,
the neighbors came to the conclusion he
had, in a fit of anger, killed him. The
discovery of a grave on the old man's
ranch set all tongues to wagging, finally
resulting in the visit above mentioned.
The old man sat by the grave while the
coroner and sheriff shoveled out the dirt
and when they reached a depth of five
feet and unearthed the decaying remains
of a Jersey cow, the old man laughed a
laugh that made neither the sheriff nor
coroner smile. And then be told them
the last he had heard of the boy he was
in Cheney, where they could find out all
about him.
