THE MORNING OREGONIAN, WEDNESDAY, JULY 18, 1906.
MAY PLEAD GUILTY
TO BIGAMY CHARGE
Lorenzo Joseph Dame Would
Like to Escape With
Light Sentence.
SON VISITS HIM IN JAIL
TJncle of Dame Says Nephew's First
Wife la Living in Seattle.
Prisoner Has Two Wives
in Portland.
Lorenzo Joseph Dame may plead guilty
to polygamy on the condition that he be
given a light sentence In the penitentiary.
Dame was visited in the County Jail yes
terday by Deputy District Attorney H.
B. Adams, and the prisoner talked as
though he wanted to have the trouble
over as quickly as possible. Dame
declared that his last wife would be true
to him, and that they would live happily
together after he had served his sentence.
While the Deputy District Attorney was
talking to the prisoner. Dame's 12-year-old
son called to see his parent. Tears came
to the eyes of both when they met. The
little fellow said that he was to stay at
the Boys" and Girls' Aid Society for a few
days until his grandmother (Dame's
mother). In Walla Walla, could be writ
ten to.
Dame avers that his first wife, the
toy's mother. Is dead. A new phase is
put on this story by a letter recently re
ceived by Mr. Adams from Albert John
son, ot Walla Walla, who announces that
the mother of the child Is now living lh
Beattle. and should be made to care for
her son, as the grandmother is old and
Incapable of working for the lad. John
son promises to secure the address of
Mrs. Dame No. L It Is thought that this
subject will be Investigated before the
prisoner is tried or sentenced. Johnson
states'that he is Dame's uncle, and avers
that his nephew's grandfather died while
Insane. The uncle is of the opinion that
Dame's married life, or lives, has unset
tled the prisoner's mind.
During his conversation with Mr.
Adams, Dame admitted he had served a
term in the Washington penitentiary, but
refused to tell the crime that caused his
arrest. The fact that Johnson says Mrs.
Dame No. 1 Is In Seattle, while Dame
declares she is dead, adds an air of mys
tery that makes Mr. Adams wonder
whether or not Dame had a legal right
to wed his second wife.
The prisoner was arrested July 9, Just
11 days after his third marriage. He is
only 30 years old. June 28 last he mar
ried Myrtle B. Kelso while Mrs. Marie
Rosetta Sutcliffe Dame, who married the
arrested man April 25. 1904, was living in
this city and undivorced.
EHICKSON DIVORCE IN COURT
Lane County Couple Make Counter
Charges Before Judge Gantenbeln.
"A woman can look up and down, and
then tell 10 lies right away afterwards."
This was the startling new theory ad
vanced by Frank Garry yesterday after
noon while he was acting as a witness
In the divorce suit of Carrie Erlckson
against Erlck Erlckson. Garry testified
that he had often heard Mrs. Erlckson
say that she was going to secure a di
vorce and then she would have several
thousand dollars to buy a cigar store.
When asked if the reason he had wanted
to testify for the defendant In this case
was because he wanted to marry Elsie
Barber, daughter of Mrs. Erickson, and
was refused, Garry became very excited
and yelled:
"I did not, I tell you, I did not! She
must- be crazy If she thinks so."
The actions of the witness and the
answers given by him were so unusual
that the bailiff had to rap for order con
tinually, and even Judge Gantenbeln
could not keep from laughing.
Mrs. Erlckson is suing for a divorce
on the ground of cruelty. Her husband
is a rich rancher living near Eugene, and
he filed a counter charge, alleging that
his wife deserted him last August and
came to Portland. He says she has been
intimate with other men. On the witness
stand he said she had been untrue to
him but that he had always been kind
to her. Garry, Mrs. May Loman. Charles
Decker and Mrs. A. T. Workman testi
fied that they had seen Mrs. Erlckson
with one N. J. Sullivan.
During the rebuttal testimony Sullivan
said that he had simply roomed in a flat
that had been rented by Mrs. Erickson
and her daughter and son-in-law. Hugh
Barr. a Eugene merchant, was another
rebuttal witness for the plaintiff, it hav
ing been brought out by the defendant's
nttorneys that Mrs. Erickson has spent
a great deal of time in the Barr store:
the witness said that the only times the
woman had been in the store was to pay
some lodge dues. Mrs. T. Black, of
Eugene, said that Erickson had mis
treated his wife.
During the forenoon two sons of the
Erlcksons, Fred, aged IB years, and
Charles, aged 12 years, declared that their
father had always been kind to the
mother. The boys both stated they
wished to live with their father, because
they said "he was the best."
All of the testimony was presented last
night, and Judge Gantenbeln will an
nounce his decision today.
Lawyer's Fee More Than Sum Sued
G. A. Vehr was yesterday made the de
fendant in a suit In which the sum sued
for is the smallest asked In any case
begun In the Circuit Court here during
many years. Mr. Vehr is sued for 120.
the plaintiff being J. L. O'Donnell. In
his complaint, which was filed by 'Attor
ney A. T. Lewis, O'Donnell declares that
last Spring he graded two lots belonging
to the defendant and located on the cor
ner of Tenth and Harrison streets. The
grader says his work was worth $20. but
that the property-owner has not paid the
bill. Mr. Lewis asks the court to allow
him J25 attorney's fees, which is one
fourth more than the sum sued for, while
It cost $10 clerk's fees, one-half the
amount sued for, to file the complaint.
Mining Company Incorporates.
Articles of Incorporation for the Page

of County Clerk Frank S. Fields vester

Appraisers File Report.
D. S. Starnes, W. P. Slnnott and George
A. Brodle. appraisers of the estate of the
late Matthew O. C. Murphy, made their
report to the County Court yesterday.
They aver that the estate left by Mr!
Murphy Is valued at $52,500, and consists
of real estate located on Fourth and Tay
lor streets.
last night, while people thought to
themselves, "It certainly has been."
And every one seemed to be in par
ticularly high spirits because of mod
eratiou of the temperature.
The arc lights scattered throughout
the park grounds were late in being
turned on, arid when they glared forth
rather suddenly they were the cause
of a commotion among spooning cou
ples seated on the benches.
W. E. McElroy acted as director. The
atteniance was unusually large.
H0GE IS 0NJHE WAY.
Unless He Appears His $4000 Bond
Will Be Forfeited.
Unless Martin G. Hoge, one of the
principal defendants in the land-fraud
case now on trial, appears In the Federal
Court this morning at 10 o'clock and
answers to his name, his bond of $4000
will be declared forfeited. Such was the
order of United States District Judge
Hunt yesterday morning, and it was
given with unmistakable emphasis.
In fact, Judge Hunt made it plain to
all within hearing that he will not tol
erate any nonsense, and that he has ex
ercised a certain amount of leniency in
the Hoge case because of the fact that,
under the impression he was talking with
a Juryman over the long-distance tele
phone last Sunday, Instead of the de
fendant, he gave the latter a sort of
quasl-promise to excuse him from attend
ance at the trial, providing he was ill to
the extent claimed.
At the. opening of court Special Assist
ant to the Attorney-General Heney called
the attention of Judge Hunt to the fact
that he had caused a telegram to be sent
yesterday to one of the most prominent
ctizens of Medford, requesting advices as
to whether or not Defendant Hoge could
with safety be brought here for trial,
and that the following reply was received:
"From my best information he is able to
come ehere." Deputy United States
Marshals had also visited the defendant,
and Dr. E. B. Pickell, a reputable physi
cian of the place, had made a diagnosis
of Hoge's case for the Government and
reported that he was not suffering any
serious ailment. Mr. Heney stated fur
ther that Dr. Pickell had corroborated his
telegraphic report of Hoge's physlcial
condition with the telephonic information
that there was not the slightest danger
in his appearing for trial . ,
Mr. Heney read a letter which he
had sent to Hoge last Friday, notify
ing him that he must appear for trial
on the following Monday. At the bot
tom of this notice was a pencil mem
orandum from Mrs. Hoge to the effect
that her husband was ill and could not
appear at the trial. This letter d'd
not reach Mr. Heney until after the
court proceedings of last Monday.
"This is the third attempt of de
fendants to evade trials upon this
plea,'' said Mr. Heney vehemently, "and
1 desire at this cime to announce that
hereafter when defendants fail to put
In an appearance upon the date set for
their trials. I shall move to forfeit
their bonds, and I now move that an
order of forfeiture be entered against
Hoge in this case. I know of no other
way of preventing these defendants
from entering pleas of sickness at the
last moment without notifying the
Government. As a result the Govern
ment is put to heavy expense on ac
count of Issuing and executing bench
warrants, and making , medical exami
nations." Upon adjournment Mr. Heney ex
plained that he had referred to the
cases of Marion R. Biggs last year.
coupled with that of State Senator F.
r. Miljs aim tiiin idlest. cfiauuu nucu
he called attention to the three at
tempts that had been made to evade
trial, on the plea of illness.
After listening- to a recital of the
facts relative to Mr. Heney's efforts to
ascertain the truth concerning Hoge's
physical condition. Judge Hunt made
the following statement:
"In view of the fact that this was
undoubtedly the person who tele
phoned to me last Sunday, I will not
order a forfeiture until tomorrow
morning. A bench warrant is out
standing for Defendant Hoge's arrest,
and I understand it is the Intention to
produce him in court tomorrow morn
ing. We will defer making the order
until then, but I want it understood
distinctly that I will then enter the
forfeiture unless he Is In court. It Is a
reprehensible thing for defendants
charged with a grave offense to inter
fere with the operations of the law in
this way, and I consider it a peculiar
practice where men who are accused
of crime do not make their appearance
at the time set for trying their cause."
Calling attention to the hardships im
posed upon Jurymen by taking them away
from their industries during the busiest
season of the year, and noting that the
Government was at large expense In
cident to delays, the Judge in plain lan
guage warned all defendants not to under
take to trifle with the ends of Justice by
such tactics of delay. "I am here to
proceed with these trials," said he, ,"and
am anxious that the cases should go
ahead without unnecessary hindrance.
That is what we are all here for, and if
It becomes necessary the exceptional ex
penses must be met by such fines and
forfeitures as the court may find it neces
sary to impose. In this connection I
wish to state for the benefit of all de
fendants that they must be on hand at
the time set for their trials."
Hoge's bondsmen are Isaiah L. Hamil
ton, William H. Bradley and Washington
Rawlings, but It is cot likely that they
will be called upon to face any forfeiture,
as reports reeclved from Medford last
night Indicate that Hoge is on his way
here, and should reach Portland In ample
time to appear at the opening of court,
his train being due to arrive at 7:25 this
morning.
At the opening of court yesterday morn
ing District Attorney Bristol presented
the pardon granted to Judge Albert H.
Tanner by President Roosevelt, releasing
him from further concern In connection
with his plea of guilty to a charge of
perjury, committed before the Federal
grand Jury last year while testifying In
behalf of Senator Mitchell relative to
their partnership agreement. The docu
ment was entered of record, thus clearing
Judge Tanner of all criminal proceedings.
Upon motion of Mr. Bristol. Judge Hunt
ordered a bench warrant to be issued
for Edwin T. Whitney, who pleaded guilty
May 14 to the commission of perjury by
falsely swearing before United States
Commissioner A. C. Palmer that he had
not exhausted his homestead right. For
this offense he was fined $250, giving
bonds in the sum of $2000 that he would
abide by the sentence of court. After
giving the bonds he is alleged to have
fled to Idaho, and now James Rafter, of
St. Joe. and William M. McCarter, of
St. Mary's, Idaho, will have to pay the
amount, as Judge Hunt declared the bond
forfeited In addition to issuing the war
rant for Whitney's arrest.
The appearance of W. D. and J. E.
Fenton was entered as attorneys for
Frank E. Alley, the Roseburg searcher of
records, who was indicted April 8, 1905.
in case No. 2940. for conspiracy. His
trial has been set for August 13.

IS THREATENED
Anonymous Letter Declares
She Will Pay for Her Sym
pathy for Esther Mitchell.

District Attorney Manning Is In
formed of the Threat; and Bur
gess E. Starr Declares He Will
Give Letter to the Police.
Another chapter has developed in the
sensational Cref field-Mitchell case, and
now Mrs. Burgess B. Starr bids for the
leading role. It has just come to light
that Mrs. Starr, who announced herself
as pleased at the death of George Mitch
ell, was the recipient of a letter, last Sat
urday morning from an unknown party
or parties, in which her life was threat
ened. The letter has since been in pos
session of Mrs. Starr's husband, and no
one was aware of its existence except
District Attorney Manning until The Ore
gonian secured the facts from the Starrs,
Immediately upon receipt of the letter
! Mr. Starr turned the letter over to At
torney Manning for action, but the dis
trict prosecutor preferred to make no
statement to the public, since Starr has
kept the letter, with the intention of turn
ing it over to the city police. He has
been too busy to do this, but says he will
today hand over the threatening epistle
to Chief Gritzmacher.
The letter was short, but decidedly to
the point. It was addressed "Mrs. B. E.
Starr," and signed Indistinctly "G. C. G."
I Its general tenor was that the author,
i with others, was determined, in view of
' Mrs. Starr's declared pleasure at the
! death of Mitchell, to kill her. When
i asked concerning the phrasing of the let
ter, Mr. Starr was very hazy. He only
remembered that it was couched in no
uncertain terms, and said particularly: "I,
or If I can't, some member will get you."
Xne husband of the woman addresseed
was surprised and entirely in the dark
as to who the author might be or what
his motives were. The postmark was
Station B, which is located in Albina,
but other than that there was absolutely
no clew on the envelope or letter sheet by
which the writer might be detected. The
handwriting was smooth and legible, and
an attempt had been made to make the
signature as indistinct as possible.
Yesterday Starr went to Newberg with
the body of Mitchell, accompanying Perry
and Fred Mitchell. All three returned on
the evening train, Starr to his home on
the East Side, the Mitchell boys to their
quarters, the whereabouts of which Starr
professed not to know.
"I gave the letter to Fred Mitchell,"
said Starr last evening, when requested
to deliver the threatening letter for pub
lication, "and I do not know where he 13
staying. I had intended long before to
give it into the hands of the police, and
shall do so tomorrow, or as soon as I can
see Fred. The letter was in vicious lan
guage, and, although It uses no improper
language and is not at all Illiterate, It
leaves no doubt of the author's meaning.
I cannot understand why it was sent or
who could have written it."
District Attorney Manning has known
of the letter ever since last Saturday,
when it was delivered to him by Starr,
and when asked if he proposed to take
any action in the matter, he replied that
he would not.
Mrs. Starr was seen at her home yester
day afternoon, and she appears deeply af
fected by the receipt of the threatening
epistle. She trembled when speaking of
it, and her whole manner was that of a
person in deadly fear of her life. The
late events seem a!so to have completely
wrecked her nerves.
Starr feels deeply his position. With
much feeling he said last evening:
"No one can do me any more wrong
than has already been done me. There is
one thing 1 want distinctly understood.
My wife is not in her right mind; there is
no doubt of it, and I will not tolerate any
more reporters about my house seeking to
question her for information when she is
in such a pitiable plight."

WILL GO TO HAWAII.
S. 31. Blears to Seke Trade for Port
land Jobbers.
Active efforts are in progress among
representative local bodies to culti
vate closer commercial relations with
the Hawaiian Islands, and with that
object in view a meeting was held
yesterday alteYnoon of Jobbers and
manufacturers of this city, with the
president and several directors of the
Chamber of Commerce, and President
of the Board of Trade. W. A. Hears,
for the past ten years secretary of
the transportation committee of the
Chamber of Commerce, and rated as
one of the best-posted persons on
transportation matters in the North
west, was selected to go to Honolulu
as the representative of this city's in
terests in the islands. He will leave
here for San Francisco July 28, and
sail for the latter place for his destin
ation on August 2.
The object of his visit will be to
show to the buyers of the islands the
advantages possessed by Portland, to
gether with its ability to take care
of any trade they have to offer, In ad
dition to pointing out the advlsability
of supporting the Matson line of
steamers.
An endeavor will also be made by Mr.
Mears to secure a portion of the
island trade for Portland upon the
plea that such a course would estab
lish a competitive market, San Fran
cisco having controlled practically all
their exporting and importing trade
for many years.
To this end it was the sense of the
meeting yesterday that inducements
should be offered the business houses
of Honolulu to appoint resident buy
ers for this city as well as San Fran
cisco. The situation was thoroughly
canvassed by those present, one par
ticipant in the discussion being of
the opinion that it would be better for
each local firm to send an individual
salesman. It was finally concluded to
have some one pave the way, and rep
resent all interests, and in this connec
tion the appointment of Mr. Mears ap
pealed to the body as If by common
impulse, on account of his well-known
ability to grasp commercial problems
of this character. He will be fur
nished proper credentials by the Cham
ber of Commerce, and expects to re
main about six weeks on his mission.
Mr. Mears is anxious that any job
ber or manufacturer who has an In
terest In keeping the Matson. steam
ship line alive should communicate
with him in order that he may be
able to keep in touch with the situa
tion as much as possible. Brickmak
ers and other manufacturers of build
ing material are especially Invited to
meet him.

SENDS WIFE TO THEATER
E. W. ROSS THEN COLLECTS HIS
BELONGINGS AND LEAVES.
Mrs. Ross says she Is glad to get rid of
him, as lately he has acquired a habit
of remaining out late at night on the
plea of having to work, when, as a mat
ter of fact, his employers told her he did
nothing of the sort.
Wife of San Francisco Refugee
Declares Her Husband Has
Deserted Her.
Edward W. Ross, an employe of the
American Type Founders' Company, who
until Monday night resided with his come
ly young wife at 261V4 Fifth street, has
hit upon a plan as novel in its arrange
ment as it was cruel in detail in his
efforts to get rid of her. Under pre
tense of being obliged to work late that
night, and in order further to lull what
ever suspicions she might have enter
tained concerning his fidelity, he accom
panied his note with a couple of tickets
to the Heillg Theater, telling her to take
a lady friend and enjoy the play while
he pursued his nocturnal labors. Accord
ing to the note, he was to meet her at
11 o'clock after the performance and es
cort her home.
After waiting at a friend's house near
Park and Morrison streets until well past
midnight. Mrs. Ross concluded that her
husband had missed calculations tn some
way, and returned to their residence
alone. She found the front door open
and ei'idence of a hurried flight on the
part of her husband, all his personal be
longings having been packed up and him
self nowhere in sight. Instead was this
short note, breathing of 'his stony-hearted
intentions: "Emma I am going to San
Francisco. If you love me, follow. If
you want money, telegraph to grandma
or your sister."
"I don't believe he has even left town,"
said Mrs. Ross last night while relating
her tale of woe to The Oregonlan. "He
shook me once before that way, but came
back after he got through chasing, and,
like a fool, I forgave him, but I am not
going to be such a chump again. I shall
secure a divorce, and it will be curtains
for him ever afterward," and Mrs. Ross'
big blue eyes snapped as if she really
meant It.
The couple have been married about
two years and a half, and came here as
refugees from San Francisco after the
earthquake. They have no children, and
