take immediate steps to have C. R.
Moore removed from the Oregon
penitentiary and taken to Sacra
mento to be tried for the murder
of Harry Brown In that city Sep
tember 18, 1923. says a letter re
ceived by Warden Dalryniple to
day from Bernard McShane, chief
of police at Sacramento.
The letter from Chief McShane,
which incloses a statement from
Miss Florence Pries, who was with
Brown at the time he was killed,
tends to corroborate the confes
sion signed by Moore and his wife
at the Oregon prison on May 1.
Her story of the crime and also
her description of the slayer tally
with the Moore confession and
with his physical appearance.
Miss Price says that a woman
was in Moore's automobile wait
ing for him after the crime was
committed, and in their confession
Moore and wife claim that the lat
ter was in the car waiting for him
with the engine in motion so there
would be no delay In the escape.
The confession mentions a lawyer
who chased them after the shoot
ing. They did not know his name,
but knew from newspaper articles
at the time that he was a lawyer.

'SACRAMENTO, Cal.. May fl
Two men who wrecked a stolen
automobile here this morning are
believed to be Joe Tanko and
Floyd Hall,- escaped murderers
from San Quentin prison. All
peace officers in this city have
been ordered out to hunt them
dawn.
The automobile was stolen early
today from a farmer and hlo wife
near Auburn. It was wrecked In
front of the Sacramento county
hospital on the southern edge ol
this city.
Two men, one with a rifle, held
off would-be pursuers and disap
peared on foot in the direction of
Oak Park, a suburb.
They were last seen at Forty
Third Street and Fourth Avenue,
in the same locality where the con
victs disappeared three weeks ago
after shooting Clyde Nunn, a mem
ber of the police force, who was
pursuing them after they had
stolen a car and kidnapped Hb
driver. One woman, seeing the
men with the rifles this morning,
became hysterical. Bystandors who
saw the men declared they resem
bled Tanko and Hall, escaped con
victs. A half hour after they had
wrecked their stolen automobile

way, both of Reedsport were fined
$250 each in the local justice court
this morning, charged with selling
a pair of elk horns.
"Evidence obtained by this of
fice," District Attorney Cordon
stated this morning, "indicates that
these men have been making a
business of selling elk horns. The
hums were obtained from the elk
herd ranging between Douglas and
Lane counties ln the roast district,
and we believe that they have had
a cache of these horns some place
near Reedsport. They sold a set
of these horns for 125, but made
the mistake of selling to a game
warden. We also have evidence
of the sale of dver skins and boms;
but the complaint piled again
them wna for the sale of elk horns,
a very serious offense under the
state law."
There Is a large herd ol elk rang
ing In the western end of Douglus
and Lane counties, and these ani
mals are protected by law, and
during certain periods of each
year are guarded. They have been
multiplying quite rapidly, and every
effort haa been put forth to pro
tect them as much as osslble.

GENEVA, May 14. The American
delegation to the League of Na

the control of traffic ln arms and

amendment to divorce the arms
convention from the League of Na
tions. The presentation of the Ameri
can amendment, although expected
In many quarters, caused some
thing of a aensation.
The convention, which It propos
ed to amend, provides that a cen
tral International office shall be es
tablished by the council of the Lea
gue of Nations for the collection
and publication of documents of all
kinds relating to traffic in arms.
The amendment by Representative
Theodore E. Burton, head of the
American delegation, provides for
a central office, but omits the
specification that It be appointed
by the League's council.
It differs also from the confer,
ence convention by saying that a
certain number ot states to be de
termined later shall nominate rep
resentatives to the central office
and these representatives shall de
termine its organization and func
tions. Including the method of
electing their suocessors.
The Burton amendment will be
discussed later.

and although tire American dele
