MAMIE WALKII IS THE VICTIM.
Tun Iliad Unity Found ('umraled In
the Hi ttli four Men Are
I'nder Arrest.
In view of the many Incorrect and
Incomplete accounts of the atrocious
murder at Milwaukee that have gone
broad the KT.ri correaion lent at
that place baa prepared the following
a accurately detailing the clrcum
etancea so far as known :
Wednesday morning of laat week
Mamie, daughter of Michael Walah,
aged thirteen and a half year, left her
home to atny a few duya with the family
of Alfred Lewelllng In tlm absence of
the anrvant girl who waa attending
camp meeting at Uiia place. Alter the
dinner work waa Aiiialied e!a worked
for awhile at pact lug cherries, Then
aha aaid aim would go and gather some
wild blacklwrilc where Mia Kane bad
found some a (ew day before, Mr.
Luelllng got a tin pall for her and tried
to remove a wire honk that was (unlciuil
to the bail but ceuld not. Mamie took
the pall and went out into the Held ad
joining Mr, I. nulling' orchard and
only a abort dhilance from the boiie.
This waa at 3;45 o'clock.
Cbarlea Wilton ) that be saw a
girl and three Chinamen picking Iter
ries but did not pay any attention to
thrill more than a vlanca.
Mrs. Luelllng expected Mamie to re
turn In time to help prepare uper and,
knowing her to be a very duiiful girl,
waa nurpriwil that aba did not come ami
Mr Luelling went to Inol. fur her. Not
finding her in the berry patch be rode
to Iter borne to Inquire. Nut rinding
her there, surprised turned to alarm and
the neighbor were r tiled out to aid in
tlm search. Mr. Heating went to the
ramimieetlng and made impilry but no
one knew anything of her whereabout.
A number ol the young men who
were not taking part In the service at
the m.eeting started Immediately to join
the aearvhing party. The berry patch
and vicinity were thoroughly gone over,
the people living on all (be neightmring
road were called out and questioned
but no trace could be found of the mim
ing girl
The members of the crowd, think
ing that the mom log would make
all right, gradually dropied away until
the father, brother and four other were
left to watch over the indewribahlv
lonely and lonenoiue scene.
At alKiut 2 ;ItO a. in . two of the crowd
went to Milwaukee and rang the school
bell and aoon bad a crowd ready to re
new the aearch aa aoon as the day be
came light enough. They recognized
the necoftity of eyateniic work and the
whole field was gone over very careful lv.
the neighlmriug barn were warched
and then the crowd cnwwd the county
road and began to aearvh the denne
wooda on that aids. The flrnt thing
noticeable waa a sort of trail through
the wooda, which wa followed for a
short ttixtance and a girl' collar was
hanging on a buh.
The mother was called and ahnont
wild with anxiety and grief the recog
nised it a the one her little vlrl had
worn. All then started to follow the
trail and about 5 .15 found the body ly
ing In a slight depression of the ground
covered with small slick and piece
of ferna. Her brother Richard was the
first to see her and he wa nearly over
come by the eight of hi dead timer, but
when a minute later, the lather and
mother appeared he met them with a
noble composure that would have done
credit lo any man of mature yearn. The
wild grief ol the lather and the broken
heartedncaa of the mother can be better
imagined than dencrihed. They were
ermiltod to scrape away the stick and
kiss their dead child . Shu wh lying on
her leftside her beautiful, brown, curly
hair covering her face, her right hand
reeling on her hip. left hand in front
and alinoKt under her body, nether
limb partly bent, clothes slightly disar
ranged there hnimr a Mpuce of about
three inches between her blouse waist
and the top of her skirls where her
under clothes could he soon. There
were also a few small torn places in her
akirta, everything indicating that she
bad boon carried and carefully kid where
she was found. One cruel mark on the
tipper right hand part of the forehead
and several minor cuts and scratches on
bur bands were the only marks of vio
lence noticeable on the person as she
ay.
Messengers hastened away to notify
the coroner and friends. All tho morn
ing sympathizing Irieuds came, viewed
the snot and went quietly awuv. Few
tears were shed hut many shudders of
horror run through the souls of those
who have children of their own when
they realised the horror ot tho situation.
Coroner Sullivan arrived and after
impaneling a jury and viewing the body
ordered It taken homo, where they were
met by Dr. J. B. Ray of Sullwood, who
gave the body a thorough examination
revealing tho fact s as follows :
She was struck twice on tba forehead
with a weapon evidently a hammer.
Mark on her throat show that she was
choked. She was then horribly out
raged and afterward washed, both her
person and parts of bar clothes. No
evidence baa been loiind at to where this
work was done but all seem to agree
that It wa before she wa corrled scroa
the road,
The coroner's lniueal waa a loosely con
ducted affair. .The Jurors talked freely
with outsider and In the afternoon left
the eourt room to mingle with the crowd.
Frank Wilton baa been severely cen
sured for "chipping In," but a consider
ate mind would see nothing more than
the natural action of ao Impetuous man j
when hi brother la accused ol crime
ol which he believes him Innocent.
Others w'e permitted to "chip in,"
why not bet The juror's verdict was
that the girl waa outraged and murdered
by some unknown person.
The people ol Milwaukee have done
all that they could do to help ferret out j
the truth but have tailed to learn any
thing definite.
The funeral proeaion waa one ol the
largest aeeu In Milwaukee lor many
day, The service were held in the
Catholic chapel.
The flrtt arreat made for the Milwau
kee murder was that of Thomaa Hullivan
at Hillahoro Friday. It waa claimed
that be had made a confession but when
he wa lodged in the jail in th't city Katr
urday it was loun.l that he waa a chronic
drunkard who waa a hanger-on about
I'ortlaiid and there waa no evidence
agalnt him. Instead of having made
a coiifewion while drunk he denied any
knowledge of the crime. His examina
tion before Justice Fonts was set (or
Thursday afternoon. Nothing impor
tant I likely to result from it.
Friday night A. A. Iemulet, an itiner
ant piano tuner, was arrented at Oswego
on suspicion and be wa taken to Port
Unil. lln wa brought to Oregon City
the next dv. A physical examination
hnaed him to be Incapable ol commit
ting the crime but be is still held in jail
here to await dvelopinciits.
F.rne"t li.ihw' a (iermnnof socialistic
pioclivttie, waa locked up in Portland
Saturday and brought to Oregon City
Monday, He occupied the bark cabin
near where the body ol the mur lerod
girl wa found, and pred to be a
crank. lie claimed to be a political re
former and fanner' alliance advocate
and to have had bis temporary abiding
place in that uncouth cabin in order that
he might lietier amplify his theories
; and wiite them out for the papeia. He
! I. ulitl in l-il lw....,l, 111. ..,.1 I,-..,l.l
not have committed the ciime.
Tue.dav morning George Wilson, the
man to whom suspicion had been di
reeled during the coroner's inquest, was
arrested a id taken to the Portland jail
and Wednesday morning he wa brought
up to Oregon City. He had resided in
Milwaukee but a few daya when the
crime waa committed but hi apparent
anxiety and evident deire to tlx the
deed iisn aome one else made the peo
ple strongly suspect him. He wa the
last one who claimed to have seen the
girl and he said he saw thiee China
men near her in the berry patch. The
idea ia quite strong that Wilson is the
guilty person but there appears to be
no positive evidence lo that effect yet.
It it prohable that the examination ol
all the suspect nuw held will throw
tome light upon the commission of the
crime. The temper ot the cople is
such that if guilt can be positively
fastened upon anv one the case will
probably not be permitted lo trouble the
courts.
At the examination of Thomas Sulli
van Thursday afternoon he proved an
alibi and was discharged from custody.
The examination of George Wilson will
occur on next Wednesday.
