SINCE 1877 OF SOUTHERN OREGON SHERIFF i STAND Cinches State's Case Against Cardiner Minister PARROT f CORROBORATED Hearing Enlivened by Tilt Between Court and Lawyer, Resulting la Fine (or Contempt With the testimony of J. G. Sner- lock, Bheriff of Throckmorton county, Texas, introduced at the preliminary examination in Justice Long s court, this morning, the stnto welded Its last link In the clip-In of evidence around Rev. George Clark Summers, the Gardiner minister, who Is resist ing' extradition to Th-ockmorton. where he Is wanted cn ths charge of obtaining money under false pre tenses. Kev. M. u. Wire, or Eugene, district superintendent of the Meth odist Episcopal church, was placed on the witness stand by the defense, but his evidence, If anything, fnvored the state. The defense expected to have prsent Rev. T. B. Ford, pastor of the Methodist Episcopal church at Pen dleton, but he did not appear, al though he has been subpoenaed. At torney W. W. Cardwell, of the de fense, asserted that Rev. Ford's tes timony was Imperative In the inter est of his client and asked for a con tinuance of the hearing until such time as he could appear. Justice Long granted the request, adjourning tne hearing until next Wednesday. Sheriff Fenton was instructed to tele graph to Rev. Ford to come to Rose burg forthwith. Owing to tho large crowd of spectators that assembled to hear the cose. Justice Long held court not In hlB limited size otlice, but In the more spacious city council chambers in tho city hall. Ciirtlwell Fined At tho conclusion of the introduc tion of testimony this morning, Dis trict Attorney Brown requested., in view of the addltionnl strength given to the state's case, that the bond of the accused man be increased from $r,00 to $2000. as provided by the Texas statutes for a case of this char acter. . Attorney Cardwell Interposed strenuous objection. "This man," snld he, referring to the lefendant, "has made no attempt to get away, neither has ho any intention of going away. It s perfect nonsense to In crease his bond every time a new wit ness Is called. . Justice- Lone replied that ho did not care to be responsible In cose of nn escape and he considered that the evidence Introduced warranted a heavier bond. He placed the amount, however, not at $2000, as requested. but at one-half that amount. This did not sntfflfy Mr. Cardwell, and he repeated that It was "nonsense" to Increase the bond. Justice Long did not like to have his rulings referred to as "nonsense." and he told Mr. Cardwell If he Insulted the court he would be fined for contempt. To this the attorney replied that he wouldn't pay a fine. The Justice then wnrmed up.. "Mr. Cardwell." said Justice Long, with threatening gestures. "I want you to distinctly understand that you can't bull-dose this court, and if you don't ceaso your remarks you will be fined." 'Try It, was the defiant rejoinder. 'Mr. Cardwell, you are fined $2ri for contempt. Mr. Sheriff, take charge of him." Sheriff Kenton led Cardwell to one side and said something to him in a fatherly sort or a way. "I won I pay It," Cardwell was heard to re mark, and then he mingled with the crowd filing out of the court room. Turning to District Attorney Brown, Justice Tying directed him to pre pare the necessary papers for a eon tempt ease and then reached for his hat, with the remark: "He will either pay that fine or go to jnil." Up till 2 o'clock this afternoon, the fine had not been paid, neither was Mr. Card well In Jail. His client, however, In default of the Increased bond, again languished behind bars. Knew IMni Instantly. Sheriff Sperlock testified on the Rtand that he recognized "Clark as Summers the moment he saw htm at breakfast In the dining room of tho Roseburg Hotel this morning. Sper lock explained that he often heard Summers preach in TexaB and had met him innumerable times on the street or at residences. "Are yon certain the defendant Is Summers," queried Attorney Card- well on cross-examination. "I am positive," replied the wit ness, with emnhAsts. J. B. Mnssle. the father, so It Is alleged, of "Clark's" so-called wife at Gardiner, d!d not accominny Hper lock here from Throtk morion, ni expected. Ill health, attending his advanced age, would not permit him to make such a long trip. He told Sperlock, however, that If his erring daughter so desired she could return to her father's home. This fact will be communicated by Serlock to the woman probably today or tomorrow Parrott. Corrolorled. In every material letali, Sheriff Sperlock corroborated Jack Parrott'a testimony of last Thursday. He toh' tne minister s desertion of his wifi d three children in Texas and ol elopement with Bessie Mnssle I who was his church organist. He nl so stated that Summers Joined the Masonic Lodge at Throckmorton li the spring of 1904. but was expelled after his elopement In tho same year. Sperlock produced the olllcial requi sition for Summers, Issued upon the Governor of Oregon by the Governor of Texas, also the original indictment against the accused man and an ex cellent photograph of him. Sperlock will not present the extradition pnp ers to the governor, of course, until nfler the testimony of Rev. T. B. Ford has been given. The desire of the defense to gel the testimony of Rev. Ford is prompt ed by a letter which he wrote to "Clark," and which was Introduced In evidence. Rev. Ford, who former ly lived In Toxos, says In the letter that he "Is glad to say that he Mite defendant) Is Clark and not Sum mers;" that he "knows the two Rev. Summers." In connection with this phase of the case. Sheriff Sperlock stated that he knew anothor Kev. Summers in Texas, but that he In no way looks like the man on trial. The other Rev. Summers, reforred to by Kev. r-ora, is neitoved by the state to be a minister who wns born in Coos county and has resided there all of hlB life a man whom Ford prob- auiy met while on the circuit as sup erintendent of this district. Whether, inererore, Kev. Ford can give any testimony that will shake the dam aging evidence produced by the stnte is problematical. , Rev. M ire's Testimony. Rev. Wire's testimony dealt ex clusively with the movements of the? accused man during Mb residence In Oregon. He produced a certificate showing that "Kev. George Clark" nan been transferred from the South Methodist Church In Texns to the church In the north. This document dated as far buck as 1900, four years nerore Hummers Is alleged to have lied from Throckmorton. Hev. Wire admitted on cross-examination, how ever, Hint he had made no effort to ascertnin whether the certificate wns genuine in all respects and that he had seen no other documents or let ters showing the holder to be "Kev Clark." Ho said that "Clark" told mm nis wife's maiden name was Elizabeth Massle, but he had often heard him address hor as "Bessie. This woman, he stnted, told him her father was John Massle, of Dallas. Texas, and that both of her paronts were dead. The witness attested his knowledge of this falsehood on part of the woman by slating that ho had received a letter from Miss Massic's father, acquainting him with the fact of her elopement with Summers, and asking llov. Wlro to give his daugh ter proper enre. Summers was re rerred to In the letter in very tin complimentary terms. Masonry Invoked. An Interesting hit of testimony came out. when the witness wns ox plaining the process of Investigation Into. "Clark's" past life nftor Jack Parrott made his charges at Gar diner. As the Accused man claimed to be a member of the Masonic lodge, J. S. Gray, who Is also a mem ber of that order, volunteered lo Kev. Wire to examine "Clark" Mnson- ically. Seeing Mr. Gray afterwnrds, Rev. Wire asked him about the ex amination. It was very unsatisfactory," piled Mr. Gray: "I couldn't even find out when or where he joined the order." Adultery Light Crime. If Rev. Clark Is proven beyond nny doubt to be Rev. Summers and is taken back to Texas for trial, he will suffer more for swindling for which he has been Indicted, than if placed on trial for adultery. In ex amining Texns criminal reports, Dis trict Attorney Brown found thnt the penalties for swindling have ranged from 2 to 7 years' imprisonment In the en!tetitiary. Out of about 20 case of adultery, however, the highest penally wor a fine of $200, while In the majority of the cases Ihe penalty was a fine of $;0. A decided con trast, In the eyes of Texns Justice, is shown In cases of horse stenllng. where the penalty ranges as high as 0 years imprisonment.

Miss Mary McDowell, of the Uni versity or Chicago Settlement, was observing a girl who was operating an unusually heavy and Intricate ma chine In n large hardware factory In an Ohio city. "Strong, clever girl," remarked I Miss McDowell, or words to that' effect. "She's doubled tho output of that -mnchiuu," said the superintendent. I "How did she get such a good Job?' asked Tviiss McDowell. ( "Her rather," Bald tho supt n tendent, "had the machine before1. had It. We just thought we'd t her," "How much?" said MIkb McDowell, being Scotch mid suspicious and not completely Sllllslled with tills proof of tho Advance of Woman, "how much do you pay her compnred witli wlni'. you paid her father?" - "'Half," Bald the superintendent.' This girl, therefore, silled lie was producing twice as milch, and earning half ns much, as her father had pro duced and earned, was selling hor labor nt one-quarter or the masculine market price, li doesn't seem exact ly fair, from the standpoint of so ciety, it doesn't seem exactly self respecting, from the standpoint or the. girl.
