THE MOItXDCG OHEGOITLUT, SATURDAY, JUIrT 23, 1905. STBLiD TO THE END Norman Williams Does Not Ad mit Murder at Scaffold. ONLY A FEW AT EXECUTION Slayer of Alma Nesbltt Goes to Death With Lips Sealed Two Women See Execution From an Upper Window. THE DALLES. Or., July 2L (Special.) . Stubborn to the last, Norman 'Williams went to his death on the scaffold this morning -with the story of his crime un "told to the world. Accompanied by Sher iff Sexton and Father Desmarals, the con deroned man left his oell a Jew minutes after 6 o'clock, and walked unassisted up the stairs of the scaffold. Tho trappings were adjusted, the lever sprungand within 15 minutes -the heart-beats of the dead man were 310 longer noticeable. A successful execution had been completed. Placed In a plala pine wpoa coffin, the body was conveyed to St. Peter's Church, where Father Desmarals held mass. Only a few early-morning attendants were present. The services over, burial was made In the Catholic Cemetery at tho ex pense of the county, there being no friend or relative to receive the remains Williams arose at 3:30. and spent his time In prayer, the priest joining him at 6. He refused breakfast. In a voice that grew husky toward the end, Sheriff F. C. Sexton read the death warrant, and a few minutes before 6 o'clock several news paper representatives were admitted to the cell. Williams anticipated them with the curt remark "I have nothing to say; my Hps are sealed to the world." Would Is'ot Speak. These were practically his last words. Last night he assured the Sheriff there would be nothing to say on the platform, declaring that he would not even reply should he tie asked If there was anything be wished to s&y. "Do you wish to make a statement?" asked Sheriff Sexton, a mo ment before Sheriff Thomas Llnnvllle, of Clatsop County, adjusted the black cap. re came a faint "No from Hps that parted. iOMPiied the stairs of the scaf- rwtck.js. fknA -ead. He avoided look "tw&rA s Jra audience. SteDDlmr juarely In the middle of the trapdoor, he j stood here without the slightest sign of nervousness, wnue deputy bneria .naisni and Marshal Wood adjusted the straps. Barely two minutes after the prisoner left 1S cell. Sheriff Sexton pulled the lever that sent the condemned man to his doom. Not the twitching of a muscle was noticeable. Within 15 minutes Drs. Reu ter. Ferguson and Poane pronounced Williams dead. Coroner Burget conveyed the body to the Catholic Church. After ascending the scaffold with Will lams, Father Desmarals immediately left the scene, retiring to the corridor of tho Courthouse with Jailer Fitzgerald, who, too, did not care to witness the execu tion. About 100 men wer contained with in the enclosure, and the rooms of the Courthouse facing the yard to the north west. Two women saw the execution from a second-story window. rNo Sentlmentalism Shown. 8k ewnp!etelyj eenaratM from the daily ltf of tjierpple here was the carrying vuv 17a. p uutrc una iuui mug in the Courthouse yard that visitors to The Dalles noted nothing, out of the ordinary with the citizens as they wont about their business. No maudlin sentlmentalism to--ward the murderer was ever shown here. On the other hand, Williams conducted himself In such a manner as to give the officers no trouble. So contradictory have been the few statements made by Wlllisuns that the general public cannot believe him other than guilty. Notice the date of his birth as given to the Catholic Church. Born In 1S67. He looks to be cvry bit of 55, and the records of the Nebraska peniten tiary make him over 38. A dark criminal record has been established behind the man. Yet Father Desmarals. who has been with him a great deal of late, has come to believe implicitly in his lnnocenco of the Nesbltt murder. That the father is honest In bis conviction on this point Is evident at once from his manner of con versation. Sheriff Sexton performed' his duty In a beflttise manner. The execution Is snokon rjfTwMue osfjfccoesf ul of any ever con 'ducted In tie sime. The rope ued on the scaffold came from the nenltentlarv at Salem, where this hanging would have taken place, bad not the crime for which Williams has paid his life been committed prior to the enactment of the statute ordering all executions to take place at the state capital. This is the eighth time this one piece of rope has been used for this purpose. TOWN OP JIUMP 4 BURNS. All hut Brewery and One House Destroyed., GRANQEVILLE.

Sheriff and Otvner Trace Them Through Oregon and Washing ton Down to Granite. BAKER CITY, Or., July 2L (Spe cial.) Today Sheriff W. B. McCoy, of Sherman County, In company with M. J. Finlayson, passed through this city on their way back to their home, having in custody a man by the name of George S. Carr, who, In com pany with Ed Gliby. stole Ave horses from Finlayson several weeks ago. Ed Gllby was apprehended some time ago and Is now lodged in the County Jail In Moro, Sherman County. He confessed his part in the crime, but refused to dis close the name or whereabouts of his partners. McCoy and Finlayson struck the trail of Carr near Moro, and with great per sistence followed it through a dozen counties In Oregon and Washington. In Klickitat County, Washington, they found where Carr had made another steal and lifted five more animals. They fol lowed him back Into Oregon and pounced upon him at Granite, Grant County. When captured he admitted his guilt. Carr had two strange horses with f him when the Sheriff gathered him In, but he refused to give any account concern ing them, how or when they came into his possession. The pluck and persistence of McCoy and Flnlajv-n In following the sinuous trail of the thieves and finally bringing them within the clutches of the law Is most commendable. STRIKERS CALLED SCABS. Said to Be in Disfavor at Gray's Harbor. ABERDEEN, Wash.. July 2L (Special.) The Indications at the close of work to night are that the strike has extended to its limit. The only demonstration today was at the Western Mill, where the own ers Insisted On keeping a few men at work loading the Gardiner City. According to promises, the strikers ap peared at the mill plant, some with clubs and others supposedly with firearms, al though no display of guns was made. Sheriff Graham and the owners of tho mill were on hand to guard the way If the strikers attempted to enter the mill property. After a parley and Intimidating threats, the Sheriff said any attempts to enter the yards would be met with armed resistance. The fear of shooting evidently kept the men back, nor did they interfere with two workmen who came to the mill arid passed through the lines, carrying rifles, ready to use them if interfered with. The strik ers afterward retired, and made no fur ther demonstration at any point. They held a meeting In the afternoon and re ceived accessions to their new union. There was a plan on foot among other mlllworkers who are not In sympathy with the strike to drive the strikers on a scow and maroon them somewhere, as a considerable number of them were "scabs" during: the trouble ofa year ago. Manager Mackot, of the "West Siade Com pany, today said that the mill ot this company will be started Monday, with a promise to met the 32 demand for good men on August "L There has been no meeting of mlllmen since "Wednesday, but it Is likely all the mills Idle will be start ed Monday on this basis, if not Interfered with'by the men who walked out.

Collins Calls Treaty Rights to Aid. BLOCK TO EXTRADITION Tawyers Claim, However, That He Cannot Make His Objections Stick and Will Be. Sent Back, to California. VICTORIA, B. C. July 2tl George D. Collins, on trial for extradition on a charge of perjury committed at San Francisco, continued his technical ob jections this morning before Judge Lampman',' fighting vigorously against being surrendered. He contended there could be no extradition without a treaty, and an extradition act going beyond the treaty was' void, that there can be no extraditable offense unless it was enumerated in the treaty and a statuto by the Legislature Is necessary to enforce the treaty. He held Canada went "beyond the scope of the treaty by the extradition act of 1SS6 and that act in which perjury Is made extra ditable is null because It went beyond the limits, of the treaty, which did not Include extradition for perjury. The act of 1SS9 omitted perjury from the list .of extraditable offenses and this act was consistent with the Ashburton treaty of 1442, which omitted perjury. He quoted numerous authorities In sup port of his technical objections, not only to the srepe of the treaty but as to whether the affidavit made by him at iSan Francisco In the maintenance sujV, constituted perjury. Misses a Point. Frank "HIggins, counsel for the San Francisco police, said Collins had omit ted to speak, of the Pauncefote-Hay treaty, ratified in 1930, which was the last treaty upon which an extradition act wa sbased. The acts of 1S86 and 1SS3 were to be considered together and they held that an extraditable crime may be any descrlbcdin the schedule of the act whether comprised In the schedule or not, which disposed of Col lins contention. His contention "was not new. A case bad been decided sev en years before and upheld In appeal In Quebec by Judge Wurtele, In which the same points as raised by Collins were taken and although It was then held that perjury was not an extradita ble crime because omitted from the schedule of the act of 1SS9, the Judge held that perjury was an extraditable offense, Mr. HIggins said as this ef fectually disposed of Collins conten tion there was no use discussing it further. Collins, however, went on to argue that this ruling did not cover the point and continued his objection. Technicalities Weak. . Mr. HIggins went on to argue that Colllnr, In swearing to the false affi davit at San Francisco had committed perjury within the meaning- of tho common law of Canada and quoted au thorities In support- As to the objec tions of Collins they were merely tech nicalities which were absurd when fol lowed to a logical conclusion as all matters of procedure could not be Iden tical in California and Canada. For In stance a roan can be married by a Jus tice of the Peace in California, but not in Canada, and it would be absurd to contend if bigamy were an extraditable offense that the California ceremony did not constitute a marriage In Can ada and an 'accused be therefore not guilty of bigamy on that account. Mr. HIggins quoted numerous authorities in 'support. Including a case tried In California, which Collins had argued. In which the presiding Judge had de cided against Collins' contentions, which, "he held, were technical in the extreme and not by any means con vincing. PARTNER NOT FAIR. "Swlftwatcr Bill" Gates Accused of Avarice. SEATTLE. Wash,. July 21. (Special) "Ike" Maries, who Is well known In San Francirco. is after the scalp of "Swlftwater Bill" Gates, the' erratic miner "who has secured considerable notoriety since the first strike in the Klondike, on account of his many mat rimonial tribulations, and the fact that he has 'made and lost several fortunes. He accuses Gates of having broken faith with him in an Alaskan mining deal and levies on a fat bank account. Swlftwater Bill baa been accused of many things, but this is probably the first time that he has ever attempted to take advantage of a friend and part ner. "Whatever may be charged against Gates, he was always credited with being loyal to those who rendered hlsa assistance In time of need. The story 'which now comes from Fairbanks places Gates In a different light Last year "Swlftwater Bill then claiming to be in want of ready funds, although reputed to have Just previous ly located several rich claims In Alas ka, secured financial aid frosa Marks with whom he entered Into an agree ment specifically setting forth that Marks was to receive 20 per cent of whatever profits were derived from the development of mining properties. This! was of no avail, however, and he "brought suit In the Federal Court of the Third Judicial Division of Alaska fer a distribution of the profits of tie mines worked and also enjoined certain "banks from paying over to the defend ant $175,000 which they held on de posit to the -credit of Gates.

Witnesses In Captain Hartmann's Defense. Deny That Any Bev erage Was Sold Them. VANCOUVER. Wash., July 21. (Spe cial.) The court-martial resumed hear ing in Captain Hartmann's case at 10 o'clock this morning. The forenoon was taken up considering the admisslbfllty of documentary evidence. The afternoon .session was from 2 to 5. First Lieutenant William M. Goodale. of the Signal Corps, was on the stand, as a witness for the prosecution His testimony was corrob orative of Lieutenant Kent regarding Captain HartmannTs knowledge of the sale of beer in camp at Atascadero. Tho witness testified he saw an enlisted man purchase a quart bottle of beer at the exchange at Camp Atascadero, and also met Sergeant Latlmere, of the Signal Corps, with a quart bottle under one arm and drinking out of another. The Sergeant bumped Into Lieutenant Goodale, spilling the beer on him. On cross-examination the witness testified (that Hart mann ordered no liquors brought into camp or barracks, and the soldiers were prohibited entering certain saloons close to camp. Certain documentary evidence was in troduced concerning investigation by Ma jor WIsser, Inspector-general. The facts revealed that the bill sent -by McCafferty Bros, for Rainier beer should have been root beer. No beer but root beer was purchased by the -exchange at Benlcla Barracks or Camp Atascadero. Major WIsser in his report exonerates Hartman from making false answers. The prose cution closed the testimony in chief with Introduction of documentary evidence. The defense opened by calling First Sergeant A. S. Collins, of the Signal Corps, acting- First Sergeant at Benlcla Barracks and Atascadero. He testified that Captain Hartmann gave him strict special orders In addition to the general standing orders prohibiting- liquor being In quarters at barracks -or camp; that Hartmann confiscated liquor on the train and ordered the Sergeant to seach care fully for liquor. The Sergeant believed this applied to all intoxicating liquors, beer Included. He testified that men re turning from pass were often intoxicated much longer than It should take them to recover from sprees while absent. They raised a suspicion that they must have brought liquor to camp with them, and Hartmann ordered a careful search and Investigation, but wlthbut avail." Collins testified positively that no beer war. sold at the exchange as far as he could learn. Cross-examination of Ser geant Collins by Captain Sladen and mem bers of court was very rigid, but failed to shake the witness' evidence In the least. Caotain-Hartmann had taken the stand and commenced giving testimony when 'the court adjourned until 10 o'clock to morrow.
