Cousin Says Gun Found Near
Carey Was Not His.
DEAD MAN A ROMANCER
Tried to Make People Believe lie
Was a Trainrobber and a Hold
I'p Man Told Stories
to His AVife.
KANSAS CITY. Mo.. Oct. 9. (Special.)
George Perry, who lives in Independence,
a suburb of Kansas City, denied today
the assertion of Mrs. Carey M. Snyder at
the Coroner's inquest that the revolver
found beside the body of her murdered
husband was one that Snyder had traded
to him. He told something more of his
relationship with Snyder on the latter's
ranch near Portland as follows:
"When I was standing the week with
Carey he wired his father for $300. The
money came, and Carey told his wife that
he and I had held up a man in Portland
and got $600 from him. He flashed $300
before her. and said that it was his part
of the haul. I never knew anything
about it until his wife asked me what I
had done with my share. I told her the
truth that there was nothins to the
story.
"Another time while I was there Carey
read in the paper of a train robbery. 'I
knew all about It.' he said. 'I could
have Rotten you in on it too. but there is
a fellow down town who didn't like your
looks."
"Carey had introduced me to a clerk In
tho pawn-shop a few days before I sus
pected him ns the friend who didn't lik
my looks. That is how my name has
become connected with this affair. It
was Carey's way of making people be
lieve lie was a thoroughbred tough, a
trainrobber, and a hold-up man. But he
must be dead now. He surely would not
live and lot all this unpleasant notoriety
fall on my shoulders without making
some effort to clear things up. Yes, he
must be dead."

MKS. SNYDER UNDETERMINED
She May Go to Hillboro Today, and
She May Not.
Although a summons ha.s been served
upon her to appear before District Attor
ney Allen at Hillsboro today and testify
concerning the facts surrounding the mur
der of her husband, Mrs. Madge Snyder
stated last night that she had not con
cluded whether or not to obey the man
date. Site was speaking over the tele
phone from her room in the Hotel Port
land, and again declined to make any
statement for publication.
"No, there is absolutely nothing I wish
to say in regard to any phase of the
case." was her only reply. "I really do
not know whether I shall go to Hillsboro
tomorrow or not."
It is hardly thought, however, that Mrs.
Snyder will fail to appear before the Dis
trict Attorney and testify in response to
the sufopena which has been served upon
her. The officers hope that she will be
able to tell more than she has yet made
public concerning the case, and feel that
her evidence may add enough to what is
already known to afford grounds for the
issuance of warrants for suspected parties.
STURDY OREGON PIONEER
i -' i
The Late J. Porter Wilson.
MARSHFIELD. Or., Oct . 9.
(Special.) J. Porter Wilson, whose
death occurred on his farm near
Sumner, Oct. 1, was one of Ore
gon's early settlers. He was born
In Georgia, November, 19, 1S2S, go
ing thence to Indiana, whence he
came to Oregon across the plains
in 1S50. He settled on a farm on
Day's Creek, where he lived until
1873, taking an active part in the
early history-making of that sec
tion. He served in the Indian war
of 1S55-6. for which he received
tardy recognition from the Gov
ernment a few years ago, in the
shape of a pension.
In 1S64 he narrowly escaped death
at the hands of the red men, while
attempting to take a drove of cat
tle from Douglas County to Canyon
City, where a mining excitement
was then in full blast. One of his
drovers was Tcllled and his cattle
were all captured. In 1873 he sold
out and went back to Indiana.
There he was married in 1S74 to
Mary A. Humphrey. The next year
he re-crossed the plains with a
mule team, to get back to Oregon.
He then came to Coos County and settled on a farm at Sumner; where
he has resided ever since, prosperous and well-to-do, rearing a family of
two sons and two daughters, who, with their mother, still live on tho
home place.
Porter Wilson was a man of sterling worth and one of the solid citi
zens of the county. He was a life-long Republican, of the old stock, and
had taken the Orcgonian since its Infancy. He retained good health and
strength to his old age, together with the full command of his faculties.

Experience During the Past Few
Years Has Been Very Annoy
ing to Citizens.
ROSEBURG, Or., Oct. 9. (Special.)
There has been, perhaps, no one question
that has for years caused so much dis
cussion and feeling as that of the grant
ing to the Willamette Valley Company a
franchise to Install and operate a system
of waterworks and electric lights. Form
erly there was one company, and the
service in both water and light was sat
isfactory, only that tho quality of the
water was poor and the schedule of prices
was too high.
Another company came in and put in a
light and water plant. The usual result
followed, and the two plants became one,
and then came tho old story poor lights
and insufficient water. Then the city de
termined to bond itself and put in its own
plants, a sale of the old plants followed
and wonderful promises, but the city was
tired of promises, so when the Willamette
Valley Company came in and promised
to" put in a plant and to take a franchise
cVly hedged with restrictions, the people
rallied to them and were ready to see
them go to work, if they meant busi
ness. One week ago, when .the City Council
took up the matter, there were demands
for delay and amendments and other
claims to stave off the franchise. It was
deferred to last night. In the meantime
friends of the old company and of the
Willamette Valley Company resorted to
all means to bring the Council over to
their way of thinking.
Last night the ordinance came up for
final action. The franchise was granted
to the Willamette Valley Company bv a
unanimous vote. "Unless the Willamette
Valley Company can buy out the old
company there will be two companies in
the held, ir the Willamette Valley Com
pany absorbs the old company ,then
Roseburg will be at their mercy, the same
as now to the old company.

Jackson County Court Will Not Re
duce Railroad Assessment.
ASHLAND. Or., Oct. 9. (Special.) The
Jackson County Board of Equalization, in
session at Jacksonville last week, had few
complaints before it for consideration, the
only objection of importance raised to the
current assessment Deing lodged by the
Southern Pacific Railroad Company,

roadbed assessment fixed by the asses
sor at J1S.000 per mile be reduced to $14,
000. This the board decided not to do,
leaving the assessment Just as returned
by Assessor Peter Applegate.
Until last year the assessed valuation
of property in Jackson County ran from
$4,000,000 to $5,000,000, when Assessor Ap
plegate was among the first in the state
to make a double and treble horizontal
raise in assessed values, bringing the to
tal up to about J13.000.000. This year the
increased values and the knockout of the
exemption law bring the total assessed
valuation in the county up to about $14,
000,000.

All Schubert Pianos Now in Portland Will Be Sold by the

You know the Schubert Piano it has been represented here for years it

a piano on no other basis. V
The Schubert people understand this, and hae allowed us to make the reduc

For your own sake look into the merits of this ad. If it is the truth you can't
afford to waste your money buying a poor piano a magnificent Schubert Piano

ASHLAND. Or., Oct. 9. (Special.)
Ashland has prospects for the early es

by the Council and final action will soon
be taken, granting the franchise for a
term of ten years, with provisions safe
guarding the interests of the city.
Wood has risen in price In this section
of tho state, owing to the great demand
on the forests for lumber and for other
causes, including the scarcity of labor
for cutting it, that coal hauled many
hundreds of miles has come to be used
largely for fuel here, and it is believed
that a gas plant here would do a large

Tacoma Millionaire AVins Suit
Against the Company.
TACOMA. Wash., Oct. 9. (Special.) For
over two hours Judge Llnck, six Jurymen
and a half dozen lawyers and experts
were engaged this morning in finding
out whether Henry Hewitt, Jr., the well
known millionaire, really owned the Ta

Hewitt need not pay the bill.
Mr. Hewitt says he ordered the meter
out last February. He testified that the
bills were getting higher and higher
every month until he could no longer
afford to pay them. The last bill was
for $30. The company threatened to take
out his meter if he did not pay that was
by letter and he telephoned that it could
take it out as quickly as it desired; he
did not care. He says he never used
any gas after that and a few days after
he informed President Seymour that he
wanted the meter removed.
