KAKK'S TRIAL ON
Libelous Charges Denied By
Judge Hamilton

ed Prosecution
That ho wiih not connecti'd. oithir
directly or Imlirwtly, with the in-oii-aration
nf tlie'liiHtniftlotis submit! ti
by JudKt' Coke to tlie jury in the
Mi-Clullen-Muhun homicide trial ami
that h was too ill to preside: over
the case at the tituo it was in court,
were the emphatic declarations of
Judge J. W. Hamilton this nioriiinp:
in the pielimiiKii y examination of
Jesse O. lirake, charged with crimin
al libel.
The examination was held in Jus
tice K. V. Marslevs' court. Drake
was represented by Attorney r. S.
Jackson, who was retained by the
defendant in place of K. L. Cannon,
who voluntarily withdrew front tin
case before the hearing began. Dis
trict Attorney Brown represenled the
Btute. Court adjourned at 11:I!0 o'
clock until Saturday morning at 9
o'clock, when the state will inlrodU"e
the testimony of Dr. A. F. Sether,
who attended Judge Hamilton during
hiH Illness. '
Drake's prosecution is the scqu'l
to his communication to the Port
land Oiegonlan, charging, aiming
other things, that Judge Hamilton
feigned Illness to avoid trying the.
McClallen case and that he collabor
ated with McClallen's attorneys in
preparing the instructions to the
jury. Witnesses called to the stand
tills morning besides Judge Hamil
ton were W. V. Cardwell, one or
McClallen's attorneys; Assistant Dis
trict Attorney li. L. Kddy. who aided
Brown in prosecuting the case; John
Hunter, a local contractor and .plan
ing mill operator; . Sheriff tleo. K.
"Qulne, County Clerk K. H. Lenox and
W. A. Pettlt. a locnf newspaper re
porter. Another phase of Drake's alleged
libel with which the hearing 'had to
do related to bis censure of the Dis
trict Attorney for not placing on the
witness stand at McClallen's trial
Lillian Speicher. the woman who
figured so prominently in the tragedy.
Kvidence adduced in regard to this
was that the woman was too ill to
appear. In court or even give a depo
sition and that her testimony would
have been detrimental rather than
helpful to l)ie state's .case.
With the introduction of Dr.
Sether's evidence tomorrow, the state
will probably close. Then it will he
incumbent upon Drake to prove the
contents of his open letter. If he
rails, in the opinion of the magis
trate, he will be bound over to the
grand jury. A justice of the peace
has no punishing power In a case
of this nature.

"I did not assist Attorney Card
well In any way In preparing the in
structions to the jury in the Mc

or. the witness stand. "I have never
even spoken to Mr. Cardwell ahoat
the case. It was my Intention to pre
side at the trial, but 1 was deterred
by the adxersc advice of my physi
cian. Dr. Set her. Three d:iya before
the May term of court opened 1 was
strlckvn with la grippe, and I secured
Judge (ianteuhein, of Portland, to
hold a session here, convening the
grand jury and Using the date for
u special term one week later. 1
thought that 1 might be able to pre
side at the special term, but I had
not fully recovered from the effects
of a high fever und !r. Set her warned
mo that If I attempted to resume
work 1 might Buffer a relapse that
might result bitnlly. It was May 30
before 1 was uhle to leave my home.
"1 eonsider"it my duty to prose
cute Mr. Drake," continued the Avit
ness, "not because 1 have any ill will
toward htm, but for the ruuson that
the judiciary should be cleared of the
aspersions caBt upon it by his letter.
If .Mr. Drake entertains the opinion
that 1 was not 111 during the McClal
len trial 1 would like to have him
produce the evidence upon which that
opinion is based.
Lrnox Corroborates.
C'ountv Clerk Lenox testified that
he visited Judge Hamilton at his
home twice berore the opening of
court and a week after it had co-i-vened.
On all three occasions lie
found the Judge sick In bed. with his
throat so badly affected that he
talked with dllliculty. Mr. Lenox
then related In detail the steps that
weie taken to secure some other
Circuit Judge to take Mr. Hamil
ton's place on the bench. Judges
(iautenbeln. Harris, Calkins and
others declined, explaining that busi
ness in their own courts demanded
their attention. Finally Judge Coke,
after having once refused to pre
side, was prevailed upon to try the
case.
CaidweM's Kvldouce.
"Judge Hamilton did uot help lo
prenare the Instructions to the Mc
Clallen jurv. lie did not see thein
beforehand, he did not know of them
until thov were of general puli'ic
knowledge after Judge Coke de
livered them." Such was the state
ment of Attorney V. W. Cardwell at
the examination. "The' instr.ic
Hons," Cardwell explained, "were
prepared bv myself and my asso
ciates. McKnlghl and Watson. They
were written in my office and I
placed them In my pocket and gave
111111 to Judge Coke personally. I
did not. see Judge Hamilton for two
or three weeks before the trial and
at no time during the trial.
"Judge Coke did not give all the
Instructions requested by the defense.
He gave only those of statutory es
tablishment. These were taken fiom
the language of Supreme Judge Ilean
In the case of the State against
Morey. found in the 2Mb Oregon.
We submitted them to Judge Cuke
because we believed that they applied
to the McClallen case."
District Attorney Brown took the
opportunity of proving by Cardwell
that the state would have been the
loser, instead or gainer, by Insisting
on Miss Speicher's presence on the
witness stand at the McClallen trial.
"The state certainly had no use
for Miss Speicher's testimony," said
Cardwell. "She would have cor
roborated McClallen and streng
thened our side of the case. She was
proBtrated by the shock or the homi
cide and from high nervous tension.
Dr. Miller, as yon will remember,
testified In court that her tempera
ture was 102 and that her presen -e
iu court was a physical impossibility.
We wanted her testimony badly. We
asked Judge Coko to grant a con
tinuance of the trial, but there was
no certainty as to when Miss Speicher
would be able to come to court and

Attorney Kddy, associate of the
Distii.t Attorney, testified tliat Mss
Speicher was not wanted as ii witness
by l hi nl all because her story wag
decidedly In favor of the tl i "ma. Mr.
Kddy gained this knowledge from his
examination of the woman at tho
Coroner's inquest. Her story, kWvii
ou that occasion, was read front tin
tiansiipt of the court reporter at
the request of the District Attorney
and substantiated the claim of the
prosecution as to which side it
favored.

by heroic efforts.

Rents' furnishings. C. II. Arundel s
music store, Myrtle Creek Malt otlic;
and F. A. Adetton s harness shop
escaped destruction, although some
of them caught Ore several times and
most of their windows were hrok-u
by the heat. The big livery barn of
CTeat and Ike Weaver wan saved by
almost superhuman efforts. A mam
moth oak tree was a material factor
iu shielding this building and two
others did good service in protecting
the I. (. O. F. building which also
Includes V, A. Strong's furniture
store.
Across the street to the sou thw ht
every pane of glass In the big from
of Kice Ittos. & Adams' store was
broken, the damage here being fully
$1100. Adjacent structures also suf
fered hioken windows and ruined

Of the buildings In the block de
stroyed, four were owned by Weaver
Mros., and four by Sam K. Moore.
The postottice building was owned by
Miss Amy Pruce. I'he postoihee fix

Individual losses ;tre severely lo' I .
there is a general feeling ol thank

was not far greater, with everything
so dry as ui present and "wr; limited
means at hand with which to combat

of the contents of any or the build

citement, accidents were compa ra
ti vely few. Ike Weaver suil'ered a
knife wound iu the leg while slashing
the halter ropes of horses ill his liv
ery barn In his haste to get the unl
ninis out. He will be laid up for
only a few days, however. As usual,
some of the horses alter being taken
out, tried haul to re-enter the struc

from burning.

Mr. HuusakM will open anolhei

This is probably (he worst fire in
