SHOT TO DEATH IN
(Awwvlatwl PreM LoawX Wire)
CHICAGO, Auff. 21. Bernard
Huberry, known to police as a mys
terious power In the Chicago
journeyman plumbers' union, died
today from bullet wounds Buffer
ed late yesterday at the time his
union superior, Chas. Mulcahy,
was killed.
Mulcahy, nationally known labor
figure and business agent of the
plumbers" union, had gone with
Ituberry to the site of the new
Inne technical high school, os
tensibly to call a strike because of
the failure of a plumbing contract
ing company to discharge Its sup
erintendent, Charles Courchene,
from the high school Job.
Police are seeking Courchene
and Charles A. Stein, son of Carl
Stefn, who heads the contracting
company employing Courchene.
The elder Stein, chairman of the
arbitration committee of the Build
ing Construction Employers asso
ciation, told police Mulcahy and Ru
berry came to his loop office yes
terday and demanded that Cour
chene be discharged. Stein said
lie refused to do this and that Mul
cahy then threatened to call a
strike on the construction job. The
younger Stein then went to notify
Courchene.
Shooting Not Seen
No one at the construction Rite
ntiw the shooting. One workman
Raid he now the union leaders en
ter Courchene's office and that ten
minutes or so later he heard shots.
The workman said he went to the
office and saw Uuberry lying out
side, bleeding from wounds In the
stomach. He found Mulcahy In
side, dying.
A youth at a barbecue stand
nearby heard the shooting and
said be saw Ituberry Btagger from
the office. Two men ran from
the office, the youth said, and
drove away.
Ttuborry. at a hospital, refused to
say who did the shooting.
The Slein compnny head told po
lice that Mulefihy had once threat
ened to kill Courchene during the
construction or the Slevenn bo-"
tel.
Police could offer no reason for
enmltr between Courchene and
Mulcahy, but said the plumbers'
union had often used "strong arm
methods to Intimidate plumbing
firms.
Grnft Complained of
Alderman Arthur F. Albert and
Kdear Cook, coitnel for (he plum
bers' union, said that Mi'lcnhy had
a renutntlon ns "one of the few
lionent lahor leaders In Chicago"

Multnomah Club Rapped
The governor raps the "organiz
ed minority" of Oregon sportsmen.
particularly the Multnomah Angl
ers and Hunters club.
'By far the greatest voice In
both approval and disapproval of
the commission in dismissing Clif
ford and Clark has come from the
organized minority," he says. "PaBt
experience has demonstrated that
the majority of the troubles of the
game commission has r emanated
from Multnomah county, and prin
cipally all from the members of
the Multnomah Anglers and Hunt
ers club. So far as I know the
history of this state no game war
den has ever been able to please
the various factions of this club
and I doubt whether one will ever
be able to do so.
'I did something no governor has
ever done before when, at the time
of Commissioner Miller's term ex
pired, I offered to appoint one of
a list of five to be suggested by
the sportsmen of Multnomah coun
ty, that county being entitled to
the commlsslonershlp. I soon dis
covered that I made a mistake be
cause the gathering from which
the list of five was named turned
out to be purely a political affair.
However. I kept faith and appoint
ed one of tho list of five as a mem
ber of the commission."

called at the executive department
yesterday in connection with the
controversy was Senator B. L.
Eddy of Roseburg.
Senator Eddy told newspaper
men that while the sportsmen of
Douglas county apparently had not
taken any active part In the con
troversy, there was a feeling there
that the governor should support
the game commission. Eddy made
it plain that this statement did
not mean that Clifford was with
out friends among the sportsmen
in Douglas county.
It was pointed out that In case
Governor Norhlad desired to rein
state Clifford as state game war
den it would he necessary for him
to remove at least one of the three
members of the game commission
who voted for his removal. .

Two coast guardsmen bravely

a woman, apparently imprisoned

The first actual sight of human
life aboard the yacht was obtained
when the coast guards, who were
still trying to reach the vessel,'
saw a man dive off the deck and
attempt to swim for the shore.
The savage seas were too much
for him, however, throwing him

swimmer gave up the struggle.
