12 THE MOKNIN'G OREGONTAN, WEDNESDAY, JULY 22, 1903. NO EXPENSE FUND DeteGtives Hampered.in Run' ning Down Murderers. THEY KNOW WHO KILLED CALOF Two Frnit Vender Accused of Com mitting Crime, bnt the Suspects Did Not Stay to Be Ar , rested. Max Calof was murdered Juno 22. On the following day Detectives Snow ana Kerrigan secured evidence tending to Iden tify the murderers but In hope of locating them kept the information to themselves. By July 1 the detectives had secured evi dence enough to warrant them In trying to capture Leo Griggs, also known as Toughnuts," and Charles Leslie, two fruit venders, whom they believed guilty of murder. .... Under date of July 1, tho following let ter was sent to Chief of Police George W. "Wittman, of San Francisco, by Chief Hunt: , "During an 'attempt to hold up two fruit peddlers, father and son, in their own barn in this city on June 22, 1902, two highwaymen shot and killed the father and made their 'getaway As far as the case stands at present, we suspect two ' hobo fruit peddlers, Tvho were in our city but a short time, and If captured I think we have a good case against them. If they are in San Francisco they will be found among peddlers and commission houses. One Is well known to some of your detectives. His description 13 as fol lows: "Xieo Grlgge, alias 'Doughnuts;' 22 to 24; 5 feet 7 or 8 Inches; weight, 150 or 155; dark complexion; smooth shaven at the time of the murder. Home, San Francisco. "Worked as fireman and water tender on transports between your city and Manila. He Is also a fruit peddler. His people live around Burnel Heights and Is known around Twenty-fourth and Folsom streets. I am Informed that District De tective Graham knows him well. His people sent letters to Portland lately, but as he left our city Immediately after the murder, the letters were returned to your city. Leo Griggs will undoubtedly cpm munlcate with his people. Kindly watch his mall. Can you get his photo? Leo Griggs is supposed to have done the shooting. "No Two: Charles Leslie, Home, Pitts burg, Pa.; 28 to 30; 5 feet 4 or 5V6 inches; weight, 120 to 125, sandy complexion; may wear mustache now, which would be sandy, small and thin; middle finger of left hand clear off to joint; Is a peddler by profession, and a heavy drinker. At the time of the murder he wore a brown coat and vest, which are well worn and coat hangs on him, striped trousers; stripes hardly noticeable as the trousers are old. "Kindly use your utmost endeavors to locate this man Leo Griggs, by Hvatchlng his mail, as he will no doubt communicate with his folks and In that way you may be able to get some Information of his whereabouts. Also make Inquiry among the fruit peddlers In your city, as that is his business. "We have had a number of hold-ups here lately, which has ended in the killing of this old fruit peddler and I think we have a good case against the two fruit peddlers described above. "Thanking you for.your best endeavors in the apprehension of this man Griggs, and that I may he able to reciprocate In the near future, I remain. Yours truly, "CHARLES H. HUNT. "Chief of Police." Offered a- Reward. Later a reward was offered by the city for their capture, and thq, following com munications was sent to the various po lice departments: "July 10, 1903.-Chlef of Police: Dear Sir 5300 reward fof both, or $150 each, for the' arrest and conviction of Jerry, alias Charles Leslie, or Lesly, and Alex, alias Lee Griggs, for attempt of robbery and the murder of one Max Calof in this city on the evening of June 22. 1903, "No. One. Jerry, alias Charles Leslie, or Lesly, supposed to be from McKey port, O.; fruit peddler, and will be found around fruit peddlers and around commis sion houses, buying cheap fruit to sell out through the days as never does anything but peddle fruit, as that Is his business. age, 30; height, 5 feet 5 Inches; weight, 120 to i2o pounds; sandy complexion; some times wears mustache, which will be sandy; middle finger of the left hand off no to hand. sSo. 2. Alex or Lee Griggs, born and raised In San Francisco. Age, 23 to 24 years; height, about 5 feet 6 inches; weight, 150 to 155; dark complexion. smooth face; parts hair In middle; wears hat back on head. Has peculiar dark eyes; has some sort of a tattoo on one of his arms, do not know which arm. "While in this city was In company with Leslie peddling fruit, it being his' first experi ence in mat line or work. Griggs worked as fireman and water tender and oiler on a transport between San Francisco and Manila, and may endeavor to'shlD atraln His partner Leslie will be likely to be found In your neighborhood, as he was neamng that way. ""We have an exceedingly strong case against tnese two men as belntr the tur tles who committed this murder and are very anxious to apprehend them. "Kindly do everything possible to locate them and if successful, arrest and wire at my expense and I'wlll send an officer for them. Tours truly, "CHARLES H. HUNT. "Chief of Police.' "We have evidence enough to convict these men if they are caught." said De tectlves Kerrigan and Snow yesterday In talking- of the murder. "And we have known who did the work since the day alter it was committed." "And you have not located or arrested tnem In all this time?" "We have not been able to do anything. they said. "We begged to be 'sent out after them, but were met with the excuse that there was no money on hand with which to pay our expenses. If we had gone after them ourselves the exnense money would have had to come out of our own pockets. The matter was laid before tne Cnlef and before the Mayor, and we were not allowed to go after the men when we had proven beyond a doubt that they were guilty. Communications have been sent out giving a description of the men, and there Is some chance of locating tho men in this way." Evidence Against the Men. Asked for their evidence the detectives replied. "In his haste to escape Lee Griggs lost his hat. We found it the next morning and It has been Identified beyond a doubt Leslie at one time worked for Nathan Calof, and his voice was recognized by him during the robbery. "A neighbor named Tom Duffy saw Doughnuts running from the scene and can identify him as the man. that did the shooting. Doughnuts was also chased for some distance by Sam Kafke, and was aeen by Mrs. Brown, a colored woman. "Both men had been hanging around Portland for some time and doing no work. It was known that they were both 'broke,' and the next morning they were both gone. We found the room they had occupied and It had not been used the night of the murder." As final convincing proof the detectives say that they can produce evidence to show that the two men accused had planned to hold up and rob a peddler by the name of Goldblatt on that night. Gold blatt did not come home on the 'regular time, and they turned their attention to arouasr Calof. Colors father ran out, and was shot three times by them In their effort to esca.se. Owing to tho fact that the detectives were not allowed to follow up the crimi nals they are still at large and their whereabouGrare a mystery. They think that Griggs went South, and that Leslie went North, but have not heen able to prove this fact. They are sure that both men disappeared directly after the mur der and that neither has been seen since. AT THE HOTELS. THE PORTLAND.

German Ship Emllle to Return to. the Con.it With General Carjpo China Steamer In. A report became current on the beach yesterday mornlniy that the Grande Duch esse Olga had arrived In the river. Those mostly interested In the safety of the over due French bark breathed a sigh of relief, but they were doomed to disappointment when It was learned that the rumor was without foundation. It Is now a year and ten days since the vessel left Shields; with general cargo for this city, and 125 days since she put in to repair damages caused by storms on the first part of the passage. Unless the vessel, or some other, soon reaches port, -the Saxon wll be left the sole gralncarrler In the river, as the Arctic Stream and the Rhuddlan Castle are both ready to depart. The latter vessel cleared yesterday, for Algoa Bay with 114.930 bushels of wheat shipped by T M. Stevens & Co. The value of her cargo is $91,941. The Arctic Stream did not get away yesterday, as expected, but will probably leave down today or tomor row. The Saxon Is still disengaged, as ef forts which were made to secure her a lumber charter fell through and there Is no prospect of grain business in sight at a figure that wouKLsatlsfy her owners. In the meantime, Captain Smith is put ting his ship in first class shape and sup plying himself with a new set of false teeth for a long stay in port. While the arrival of some of the long list of cargo vessels is anxiously awaited, additions are being made to the fleet at the other end. The latest to go on the list is the German ship Emllle 'which will load general cargo at Antwerp. The Em llle Is one of last year's grain fleet from Portland. She left here February 14, with 31,000 bushels of wheat and 8S.000 bushels of barley and reached Ipswich on the 6th just. The big German ship Alice Is also reported to be en route .to Portland from Hong Kong for wheat loading. "WAXTS CANADIAN REGISTER. Application "Will Be Made to, Trans fer Finn: to Lord Teiupletown. Captain Horse, of the former Canadian ship Lord Templetown, which was regis tered at "Victoria until in the effort to get her under the United States flag with the expected transfer of the Pacific West In dies to Uncle Sam she was made a Dan ish vessel, registered at St, Thomas, D. W. I., Is In "Victoria to make arrange ments to have the vessel again registered as a Canadian vessel. The Lord Temple town Is now loading lumber at Port Gam ble for Cape Town, and when at Port Townsend Captain Horse endeavored to Induce Collector Ide, of Port Townsend, to allow him to tak to "Victoria the Danish register which was surrendered to tho Collector when the vessel arrived and en tered on June 20. and this the Collector would not do unless the vessel cleared from Puget Soundr The Lord Templetown, which, Is owned at San Francisco, was formerly flying the Union Jack, but In the effort to get her under the Stars and Stripes she was given a- temporary Danish register when at New York on June 15. 1902, and her home port was given as St. Thomas. In the effort to secure a permanent Danish register at that time agents were sent to Copenhagen and St. Thomas. BIG DREDGE FOR SNAKE RIVER, Five Carloads of Partu Shipped by Joseph. Stipple. Josenh Sunple has sent off five carloads of parts of the big gold dredge ho is build ing for W. Ttaber and others to be oper ated on Snake River. The parts are sent knocked down, and Will be put together at Glenn's Ferry. Mr. Supple will start a crew of men up there today, who will put the dredge together In a short time. Mr. Baber is In the East at present look ing after the machinery, which has to bo manufactured largely for this dredge, which will be tho most extensive mining machine ever built for the Snake River. At Supple's boat yari a small stern-wheel craft 1b being bullty'40xlo, which Is for this same company, and will be a tender for the big dredge. Supple Is building a private bath house for Fred Morris, the banker, which will bo used In- connection with his handsome boathouse, anchored near Boss Island. It will be S6xl6 feet, and will be protected by an awning attached to stanchions. The Ailnle Comings, formerly the Will lam M. Hogg, has received a new wheel house at Supple's yard. Repairs to Joseph Paquefs plledriver have been completed and last evening the driver was launched. CAPE HORN SEALERS. Els' Catches Made by the Several Schooners, The fleet of seven schooners operating off the Falkland Islands and Capo Horn, which were dispatched from Victoria and Halifax by "Victoria sealers, have taken 20,960 skins. Some have been hunting two seasons, others hut one. The catches are reported by one of the sealers in a tetter as follows: Edward Roy, Captain Baker, 3.9S5; Florence M. Munsle, Captain Rob bins, 3,780; Ola 'M. Balsom, Captain R. Balsom, 3,500; Florence M. Smith, Cap tain Ryan, 3,300; E. B. Marvin, Captain Anderson, 2,400; Beatrice L. Corkum, Captain LeBlanc, 2,300; St. Clair, Captain Gilbert, 1,700. These catches represent the total catches since the vessels have been on the southern hunting grounds. A letter from one of the hunters of the Florence M. Smith says a cable has been received from the "Victoria Sealing Com pany, of "Victoria, ordering Captain Ryan to take the vessel to Halifax, and similar Instructions have been sent to Captain Andcxson. The schooners can be outfitted creaper in Halifax. ASHORE IN STRAITS OF MAGELLAN. Kosmoji Liner Theben May Become a Total Loan. For the third time .since the Kosmos line has been running Its steamships from Homburg to San Francisco disaster has overtaken the fleet and the big Theben, which left April IS for the German home port. Is hard and fast ashore near the Straits of Magellan. The cabled report of the disaster is meager, but contains the satisfactory Information that passen gers and crew are safe. The vessel and cargo, It is thought, will become a total loss. The place where she struck is de- scriced as Gray Channel, In Smyth'3 Channel, near the Straits of Magellan. The Theben has ,a net registered ton- nace of 2963 tons. She-is 368 feet long 45.9 feet in beam and 27, feet deep. She was built In Germany In 1S97 and is com manded by Captain A. H, Schultz.. She was a splendidly equipped vessel, with comfortable quarters for passengers and plenty of room for carrying all klnnds of freight. Large Center Damp Scow. MARSHFIELD Or., July 21. Special.) Shipbuilder Knlse expects to be ready to launch the large center dump scow. now on the way3 at the Centerville ship yard, In about two weeks. This scow Is being built for the Pacific Coast Con tracting Company, of San. Francisco. It will be the largest ever built ori the bay. The dimensions are 200 feet long and 50 feet wide and she will draw ten feet of water. Her earning capacity will be 1500 tons. As. soon as completed she will be towed to San Francisco. To Raiiie the Theben's Cargo. PUNTA ARENAS, Chile. July Con tracts have been made with local salvers to raise the cargo of the German Bteamer Theben for 10,000, and the ship at 5000, on the principle of "No cure no pay." The German steamer Theben, Captain Schultz, sailed f.rom San Francisco April 16 for Hamburg, and, as before reported, grounded In Gray Channel, but afterward got off badly damaged andsubsequently was run ashore at Cunningham Island July 14 to prevent sinking.

GLADSTONE PARK, July 21. (Spe cial.) This was woman's day at Chau tauqua, and one of the most successful of the season In point of interest and at- tedance. It required two long trains to bring back to Portland the people who remained through the evening musical programme- The chief Interest of the day centered around the grand concert tonight, the ad dress of Mrs. Robert J. Burdette In the afternoon and the address In the forenoon of Rev. E. "W. St. Pierre, of the Salem penitentiary, on "Prison Reform." There was a noticeable Increase In the attend ance of women from Portland, many of whom brought lunch baskets, while others were entertained by friends camped among the 250 tents on the ground. Tho announcement was made during the day that the Chautauqua Association was out of debt The musical entertainment of the eve ning Is said to rank with any ever given in the state. It was under the direction of Mrs. "Walter Reed, of Portland, and was certainly enjoyed by the several thousand people In. the big wigwam. The audience started in to encore every thing on the programme, but after the fourth number the directors announced that no more recalls would bo responded to. The singers participating wore Mrs. Albert Sheldon, Miss Mabel Johnson. Miss Edna Gates, Miss Agnes "Watt,- Miss Rita Hansen, Mrs. E. E. Channan, Miss Ruth Hoyt, Mrs. Reed and Messrs. Dom Zan, J. "W. Belcher. N. C. Zan. Rush Drake, with Edgar E. Coursen at the piano. The selections were excellent. Those which geemed to strike the audience with greatest favor were the quartet from Rlgoletto, the ladles double quartet from Treble Cleft Club "Carmena," and "The Month of Maying," the sextet from Lucia dl Lammermoor. and Mrs. Sheldon's rendition of "Irish Folk Song," In which she made an extraordinarily fa vorable impression. Another hit was made by Melvin Dodson in the recitation. "A Turkey Bath." "When Mrs. Burdette spoke on "The Care of the Junior Citizen" she had a fine audience. Among her auditors were Gov ernor Chamberlain and ex-Governor and Mrs. T. T. Geer, who are camping on the ground. x The Jnnior Citizen. In outlining that which must be done for the junior citizen by public opinion Mrs. Burdette urged upon women the cre ation and maintenance of high personal standards of the sacredness of true wom anhood, the sanctity of the marriage tie, the effort for uniform divorce laws, one and the same moral standard for both men and women. She made an earnest plea for simpler living. In order that chil dren might be saved from an Inheritance of extravagance and display. "I wish to decry," she said, "the tend ency of. parents to put upon the schools all the responsibility of the education of the child, upon the church all the moral training, and upon the state, through leg Islatlon upon certain evils, all the dis cipline of the child. You cannot dele gate to Institutions and to government the duties of parenthood." In SDeaklne of uniform divorce laws. Mrs. Burdette said: "It Is an appalling fact that divorces in the United States are increasing three times as rapidly as, the population. If that ratio continues, by the close of the century separations by death will be fewer than separations by dis cord. The first remedy Is a high standard to be held In the hearts of our women, that they will not be on with the new love because they can. so' easily be off with the old. But until all women shall be thus, protected by this safeguard of their own determination we should set about weak or thoughtless women the restric tions of uniform divorce laws for the pro tection of society. "We have come to an acute stage In this social disease and nothing but national legislation will stay 1L And no one but the women of this country of your own state, of your own community and of your home, can arouse tho public sentiment. And I lay upon your sleeping consciences this burning coal from the pure altar of mother-love, and plead with you for the lovo of the children, the junior citizens of the repub lic, that you act for the preservation of the home. The diversity of laws In the different states makes It quite possible for a man or woman to be single In one state and at the same time married In another. A man may legally change his wife, the wife can legally change her husband, but there is no process of law by which they can change their children. And thus the sad condition exists of children liv ing In the home with one parent who holds the most sacred relation given to humanity with a man or woman not their parent, while- the real parent is some where out In the world, probably leading the same life. For statistics have shown that more than three-fourths of the di vorces In the United States are procured for Immediate re-marrlage to another person already selected. ""We must continue the denunciation of polygamy In Utah." she said. "There legal polygamy no longer exists, but consecutive polygamy, as carried on In all the states under sanction of the law. Is more productive of present evil and Im morality, and is more dangerous to the future of the nation, through these little citizens, than simultaneous polygamy that may bo carried on In violation of the laws. In Utah. Until there Is a .di vorce law in every state forbidding pre marriage of divorced persons, except un Jlrri Dumps, at Buffalo, went through Large mills, and. more delighted grew At every step. " How clean I " said he. He saw them mingle skilfully Malt, wheat and sunshine strength for him. 1 And that makes Force " nods " Su iy Jim. - 5 5 3 der strictly prescribed conditions, moth ers may well look with dread upon the future of their sons and daughters who have not within themselves the saving standard of true marriage In the sight of God a holy sacrament, and not a mere temporary business compact. "The junior citizen! The defense and glory of our country! 'Where are the wallsof your city?' the stranger asked the King of old Sparta unconquered and unlnvaded Sparta, whose proud , boast it was that her women had never beheld the smoke of an enemy's campflre. 'Where are the walls of your invulnerable city?' And the King pointed to the young men of the stato, standing in the serried ranks Of the citizen wilrllerv. 'Rphnlrl th wnlU Lbf Sparta,' 'Where are your Jewels?' Tho Roman society woman, bedizened and weighted with gems and ornaments, asked the noble Cornelia. The Roman mother drew closer to her Bide her two boys the Gracchi, the noble youth whose names live forever In history 'These are my jewels! "Let then your hearts," said Mrs. Bur dette in conclusion, "throb with the pride of motherhood, O women of America. The splendor, the strength and glory of the Nation Is yours, all yours. You are the mothers of the junior citizens!" Prison Reform Advocated. Tne address on "Prison Reform" by Rev. Mr. St. Pierre was delivered before the Pprtland Ministerial Association. He advised the graduation of prisoners Into various classes, and strongly mentioned the plan In use in Ohio penitentiaries. That state has three grades. Prisoners, on first entering the institution, are put into the second grade. Good conduct ad vances them to first grade, and bad be havior reduces them to the third grade. These grades carry with them various ad vantages and disadvantages. He also dwelt on the Importance of separating the young prisoners from the older and more hardened criminals. He also spoke on the great Importance of providing some means for the employment of pris oners on the expiration of their terms. Rev. S. C. Lapham, of Portland, presided at the meeting. , The afternoon's programme opened with a band concert of half an hour, Mrs. C. ,B. Wade, the retiring president of tho State Federation of Women s Clubs, later presiding. She presented Mrs. T. T. Geer, wife of ex-Governor Geer, the new presi dent of the State Federation of Women's Clubs, who delivered a brief Introductory address. Mrs. Walter Reed rendered the solo, "A Fireside Song," and there was a reading by Mrs. .Harriet Colburn Sander son, of Owen Meredith's "Aux Itallens." Vancouver Mnroonx Win. Later In the afternoon about 1000 people watched a well-played and exciting ball game between the Vancouver Maroons and the Sunnyslde Woodmen of the World teams, the former winning In the last half of the ninth Inning by one run. Score: Maroons, 5 runs, 8 hits. 4 errors; Sunnysldes, 4 runs, 5 hits and 3 errors. Umpire, Rankin. The batteries, respec tively, were: Faulkner and Bently; Van Nortwlck and Krietz. Robert J.

Burdette on the subject, "Good Medicine"; a game of ball between the Schlllers and Chemawas, In the afternoon, and In the evening Greek posing and dramatic reading by Mrs. Saunderson, and musical numbers by Mrs. Reed.

To celebrate its liberation from financial bondage a special fireworks programme will be given next Saturday night, $300 worth of explosives having been pur chased for the occasion.
