His Motive for the Crime Was to Hash Forever tbe Lips Thut ' Could Tell of Perrv'e Guilt in Robbing the Forest Grove Bank. Portlnnd, Oct." 14 Portland JoiiiiimI: There was only one mo tive for tne murder of Carey M. Soydtr, tne myetery of whosedeath may yet be solved, and there is only one pi r-on who could have done the deed, sccordiog to Mrs. Madge Snyder, widow of the young man wbofe remains were found in aloDe ly thicket near Glencoe two weeks ago." Thai pereon was George Ptrry, Mrs. Snyder believes, and the mo tive for tbe crime was to lorever hush the story of his guilt in con nection with the Forest Grove bank robbery. Sj she told District At Un ey Harrison Allen, his deputy, T. H. Tongue, . and Detective Vaughn during the secret inquisi tion at the Portland hotel yesterday afternoon. Mrs. Snyder's assertions are cor roborated by A. E. Cooper of Kan sas City, personal attorney for R. M. Snyder, father of the murdered man. In an interview with the Journal yesterday Mr. Cooper, who has consulted with both Mrs. Sny der and the dead man's father with reference to the case, said: "There was only one , motive for the crime, and there is only one person who could have killed Ca rey Snyder. I . will not Bay who the persm was, or what tbe motive wa?, but Mrs. Snyder knows and she will tell." When shown the attorney's stata- mpnt last nigM, she expressed her othtf m Peiry's. guilt, and said that, so far as she knew, there could have been no other motive tnan a desire on the part of tbe robbers of tbe bank to close tbe lips of one who knew of their guilt, At yesterday's icquitition Mrs Snyder, whose sphynx-like silence durinp tbe past week has caused no end of worry to Washington county officials' relented sufficiently to ex press her belief in Perry 's guilt and at tbe same time gave her reasons for her belief. . Her testimony may be Sufficient to convict her husband's slayers. -. -, - . 'As a result of their efforts to ex tort tbe woman'a Etory from her, officials last night declared that they had by no means ended their investigations. Though no official elatemant was given out with ref erence to what transpired during the secret session, it is stated that a warrant is to be Issued for Perry's arrest. It is also said that instruc tions were wired to ; Kansas City last night to prevent bis escape from that city, if he has not already departed. The widow of the murdered man also expressed her belief that Perry had lett Kansas Uity on reading tbe newspaper accounts of the crime and his alleged connection with it. She declared the statement that Perry was Snyder's cousin was er roneous, saying that there was no relationship between the two men. He visited at their home near Glen coe before the bank robbery, she Baid, and had hot been seen since the! disappearance of her husband. In their efforts to clear away the mystery surrounding tbe double crime, officers have been unable gto establish the identity of the other man who is said to have taken part in tbe bank robbery and the mur der of Snyder. For a time it was believed that Leonard Bell, a noted nitroglycerine artiet, who has fig ured in numerous crimes, may have been here at tbe tirrje. Information from Kansas Citv, however, is to tbe effect that he was confined in tbe state penitentiary at tbe time ot the Forest Grove bank robbery and the murder of Snyder. - Officials who are conducting the investigation express themselves as fairly satisfied with the result of yesterday's interview with Mrs. Snyder. However tkey refuse to state just what action will be taken as tbe result cf tbe light the woman threw upon the crimes. A. L. Cooper, attorney for R. M. Snyder, denies that his client has f-ealed the lips of the widow. He declares that tbe elder Snyder is desirous of bringing the murderers to trial. The Journal received the following from Kansas City last nigbt: Kansas City, Mo., Oct. 13. R. M. Snyder is out of the city. A. L. Cooper, personal attorney for Sny der, also Carey Soyder's attorney in the robbery trials here, says he is assured no conditiens or restric tions were imposed on the widow of her telling the facts as she un ders'ands tbem before she left Kan sas City for Oregon. Cooptr and Snyder talked to the wlc!ow in Cooper's .office before she left. Snyder is desirous of -haviEg bis eon s slayer brought to justice Cooper-says that thera was only one motive and only one pereon who could have killed Carey. He wouldn't eay who the pereon was or what the motlvp, but eays the widow can tell, ihe lawyer eays Mr. Snyder beard of conversations between Carey atd a companion in which Caiey iefufed to enter into the bank robberw, although be was urged to do so. Cooper is sure Sny der didn't seal the widow s hps be fore she left Kansas City. He says that if sue restrictions have been placed on her ttev must be with drawn. Philadelphia, Oct. I3. Subway workmen digging a ditch in tbe atreet for the new tunnel station uncovered at a depth of 100 feet what clearly is an old slave prison. The pen is composed of narrow cells in three tiers, with three-foot corri dors between tbe heavy walls. Heavy iron bars covered the wind ows, and in each cell were manacle supports. Directly above the cells is tbe houee of Stephen Guard, the eccentric millionaire, who gave Gi rard college to Philadelphia, and whose estate is now valued at hun dreds of millions. It was in tear irg down the house, which the Trac tion Co.had bought from tbe Uirard trust, that tbe workmen cameacroes the prison. It has long been banded down in local history that Girard drove a brisk elava tiade and that some of his fortune came from dealing , in negroee. As soon, as the discovery was made the board of trustees pi Girard trust flocked down to the dungeons. They were not allowed to examine them, but will be per mitted to do so tomorrow. The cells run six to a tier, each is large enough to hold six men packed in closely. . Chitago, 111., Oct. I3. Capital punishment will be abolished in Cook county regardless of the law or jury verdict if John J. Fitzpat rick, the Progressive Alliance can didate for sheriff, is elected, for he made such an ante-election promiee. He is president of the Chicago Fed eration of Labor, which is on record against the death penalty for any crime, and announced his determ ination to refuse to carry out any death sentence if he became sheriff. "Organized labor everywhere," he said, "stands for the abolishing of capital punishment and if I am sheriff I will do my best to further continued on page 4. ' ... "J TRAGEDY IN SCHOOL YOUNG MAN SHOOTS A TEACHER THEN KILLS HIMSELF. Rejected by His Fair Cousin, Har ry Smith Takes Her Life Two Bullets Penetrated Het Brain Makes No Secret of Crime. Cleveland, O., Oat. 10. In the presence of 16 pupils in tbe South Euclid School, Harry Smith, 2? years old, shot to death Mies Mary Shepard, a teacher, 22 years old, this afternoon. . Cornered behind the barn in the rear of his home in Warrensville two hours later, Smith shot himself through the head, dving instantly. Four Cleve land policemen, with drawn revolv ers and under cover cf eight armed farmers, were about to rush on young Smith when he ended his life. . Disappointment in love ib said to have been the motive for the mur der. Socith, who was a fourthcout in of Miss Shepard,-bad wooed her for some time and recently was re jected. He brooded over the un happy en ling of bis courtship, and this afternoon, first quitting his po sition, bought a revolver and went to the South Euclid school. Miss Shepard responded to his knock at tbe door, lie walked in and tor a few moments talked to her in the hall. Suddenly be whipped out hi revolver, ehoved it against her head and fired twice in rapid succassion, both bullets crashing through her brain. Panic spread among the pupils, who rushed but of tbe buildinu ecreaming. Seme of the girls faint ed. i Smith leisurely walked out and boarded a car for Warrensville. The news of the crime spread like wild fire and in less than half an hour an armed posse formed and was in full pureuit. The identity of the murderer was quickly estab lished. On the suburban car Smith confessed to tbe conductoi that he had killed Miss Shepard, and re marked that "they will have to kill me to get me." ; Reaching borne but a few min utes before the arrival of the posse and police, Smith told his father ol the crime. When his pursuers came in sight tbe youDg man became highly nervous and ran from the house 'o tbe rear of the barn. A loaded double-barreled shotgun was leaoing inside of tbe house, but was passed by emith, who evidently bad determined not to put up a fight, but to end his life as soon as he wan surrounded. When the poeee got within a few feet of him, calling for bim to sur render, as the four officers were pre paring to effect his capture, he plac d the revolver against his bead end blew out his brains. Washington, D. C, Oct. 12. United States; attorney for the dis trict of Columbia has informed the department of justice that tbe Hyde Benson laiid fraud criminal cases cannot be beard before December. They were pet down for heering dnriDg tr e October term, but no ac tion will be taken by the govern ment in civil suits to cancel land natents until the criminal cases are, tried. f Binzer H-tmann, it appears, is about to have another lease on life, and the Hyde-Benson land fraud- ists are in all probability to enjoy a longer period before tbe strenuous days of the Washington trial come. The Oregon land case?", however, in the opinion of United States Dis trict Attorney Bristol, will not be delayed, langer- than has rlready been announced, by tbe new turn in tbe Hyde-Benson cases in Wast -ington.
