M'rtANUS IS SILENT
"I have been instructed by my attorney,
Judge Fee, not to talk regarding my case,
and so I can say nothing now excepting
that when I am brought to trial I will tell
the truth about the whole affair and take
the consequences, whatever they may
be."
Tne above brief statement was made
to the Pendleton East Oregonian Monday
morning by John P. McManus, who shot
to death Bob Estes in the rear of the
Pullman saloon Saturday evening. The
statement was mads through the barred
door of the county iaii, where McManus
has been confined since his arrest immed
lately after the tragedy. Although still
suffering from the effects of his terrible
experience McManus was comparatively
composed this morning and apparently
had recovered from his intoxication. To
the writer he expressed deep regret that
the affair had happened, but his sorrow
is not that of one whose conscience is
burdened with the thought that he killed
a fellow being in cold blood and withou
provocation. He bears up well consider
ing the crime with which he is charged,
and but for the instructions of his lawyei
would have freely told all of the circum
stances in the case. He says he had
never known the name of the man he
killed and knew him simply from the ex
perience he had with him while here upon
his drunk. The only Estes he could re
call personally was the one who had
conducted a saloon at Pilot Rock.
As to when McManus will be brought
to trial nothing has yet been settled. The
jury term of circuit court is now on and
so, if desired by both sides, the case could
probably be fought out at this time. Other
wise it will go over to a later term.
Pendleton E. 0.
AMUSEMENT
ESTES TUNER Al WEDNESDAY
No definite arrangements have yet been
mad for the funeral of Estes, but it will
probably occur on Wednesday, said the
Pendleton East Oregonian of Monday.
The wife of the dead man, who lives
in North Yakima, has been notified and
it expected to reac1) there by that day.
Tht body is now held at the Baker
Foltom undertaking parlors. Th dead
man was on of six brothers, the others
being Charles Estes, Green Estes, John
Estes, Lou Estes, and Claud Estes of
Athena.
Today a post-morten examination of
th body was mad by Drs. McFaul and
Bes'. It was found that the bullet had
struck the spinal column, from whence i
had been deflected to th point where ii
cam out under the left nipple. Some of
the large arteries were severed by the
ball.

PARISH PRIEST POPULAR
There was beautiful little story related
on th stage of the Steward Opera House
last evening when local talent, under the
direction of C. M. DeVer presented the
pastoral drama entitled A Parish Priest.
There was a marked absence of rough
languag., the blood and thunder, which
amateurs usually resort to. but instead
of these undesirabilities, there was a quiet
little story told, which could not help but
interest the hearers. Rev John Wnlen j
was the title role, and was deoicted H E
Coolridge in a playing manner. During
the four hours which the play was sup
posed to consumed the priest in his am
iable manner straightened out the leve
tangles with a master hand. E. L. Eck
lev as Doctor Cassidy won applause for
the numerous inerpretation he placed on
the old doctor's character.
If the play has such a thing as a villian
it was Dr Edward Welsh.
This character was impersonated by
C E Gillilan. At all times was his acting
and enunbiation excellent but especially
so in the last act where he and Ethel
Stewart Da Vere did a pretty little turn
By skillful manipulations Father Whal-
en had all but healed the erupiiuo 6iUt
ing between the two and as a final close
to the temporary rupture, the two men
tioned enacted the prettiest turn of the
play. G. M. Richey acted his part to the
satisfaction of all.
A. B.Rogers, as the main source of
humor mad a decided hit with his Irish
brague and makeup. C. M. DeVer as
Frank Dougher maintained his usual high
reputation.
Agnes Cassidy, the girl without
temper was Lillian Bates Richardson. No
criticism could be mad of th way she
rendered what is no doubt th most diffi
cult personage in th story. Date Corri
gan, with her "Irish" was ably taken by
Mrs. Maud Simpson Scroggin. Her ap
pearance always called for laughter. Nell
ie Durkin, a niece of Father Whalen. was
carried by Ethel Steward De Vere in a
winning manner.
Mrs. Scroggins captured the audience
with song specialty between the first
and second acts, while Mrs. Richardson
pleased the audience with two beautiful
solos between th second and third acts
The ntire performance went off smooth
ly and without a hitch.
