who had interviewed him for last
Friday's paper that he was taking out
a marriage license that afternoon nid
would wed Mrs. Jory Tuesday (today)
at 8 o'clock. This morning Mrs. Jory
denied any engagement. County Clerk
0, K. Mccormick said no license was
Issued. Several La Orande men said
he sought to borrow money from
them during the day.
He was In good spirits while ne was
In La Orande, according to those who
talked to him.
During the evening he had been
with Mrs. Jory at dinner at the homo
to Adrian Ooodbrod. They naa re
turned home at 11 o'clock.
Officials at Union said they had
wired Yellowstone park for Informa
tion about the dead man and In re
turn received word that nothing was
known of him there. However, sev
eral people, both In La Orande and
union, who had known mm previous

had worked In that region as a gume,
In his Interview with the Observor
he described his part in Wyoming

rodeo training from John and Fred
Spain, of Union. He also said he had
been a guide for many noted Ameri

his time In La Orande.
The conclusion made at the autopsy
follows: "The autopsy disclosed a

touched the liver, cut through tho
spleen and then had gone outside the
thoracic cavity between tho ninth and

Dr. Ralston said at noon toaay no

Oarncr's statement was regarded
by his friends as In the nature of a

Lator. Representative McDuffle, of
Alabama, the Democratic whip and
staunch supporter of 8pcaker Oar-
ncr told newspaper men prohibition
should be submitted to tho people
on the straight question of repeal.
"I believe there Is sentiment
enough in this country to justify
submission of tho straight quoatlon
of repeal," said McDuffle, long count
ed among Southern dry forces.
I think the spoukor's statement
is honest, straight-forward, manly
ond courogcous. In these days and
times tho American pooplo are not
Interested In pussyfoot on any
question.

as I have ascertained how President1
Hoover stands on prohibition."
Walter Nowton, ono of the presi
dent's secretaries was shown a copy
of tho Garner stutement while stand
ing In the spoakor's lobby. He had
no comment.
Oomer's declaration for repeal
brought widespread comment from
other Democratic leodors.
Senator Shcppord (D.. Texas) said
that though ho disagreed with Dar
ner on prohibition, he would con
tinue to support him for tho presi
dency. Tho co-author of tho 18th
amendment said:
"I do not agree with Speaker Oar-
ner on repeal, but this docs not
affect my support of him for the
presidency. I regard him as sound
on all other vital questions,
other comments follow:
Sonator Wagner (D N. Y.): "That
shows tho drift. I hopo the con
vention will recommend repeal. A
declaration that a repeal amendment
should 'bo submitted would, how
ever, bo froo from ambiguities and
could bo understood by tho people.'
Sonator Plttman (D Nov.): "I

popular majority at the convention."
Sonator Copeland (D N. Y.) :
"That's good." I'm glad to hear It.
It is vory significant that a man who
has occupied tho position he has
should express himself as he has.

Representative Howard' (D., Neb.)'
one-time secretary to William Jen
nings Bryan: "The speaker's state
ment will make a repeal plank la

Representative Cullen. leader of the
Tammany delegation: "That la great .
language. There Is no evasion there,
It Is the kind of a statement the
people expect and demand from every
man In public life."
Representative Bankhead (D., Ala.)
another house leader, said:
"It Is a good statement. AU of
It Is In accord with good, sound .
Democratic doctrine. Any Democrat
can support It." ' ' $
Representative Ralney, the Demo- f
emtio leader: "I voted In the house
to resubmit the 18th amendment

WASHINGTON, June 21 OP) Speak
er John N. Gamer, In a statement
today, said the 18th amendment
"should be repealed."
Returning to the capital after sev
eral days Illness, the speaker handed
newspapermen a statement saying: i
"When the prohibition amendment
was proposed, L bs a member of con
green, voted against It. I have never
believed It should be workable, and
It should be repealed." .
Gamer added that although he had
not solicited support for the Demo
cratic presidential nomination he la
"willing to serve my country ana my
party to the limit of my capacity." .
This later statement was interpret
ed by Garner's friends as a guarded
announcement ox his availability for
the Democratic nomination, he said:
"The Democrats of California and
of my native state, Texas, are send
ing delegations to the national con
vention In Chicago lnstruoted to vote
for my nomination for the presi
dency. ... ,
"This has been done without my
