THE -MORNING OKEGONIAN, FRIDAY, JANUARY 24, I90S.
PLANS ARE RADICAL
Experts Give Farmers of the
Valley Advice.
RENOVATE OLD ORCHARDS
scheme Is to Cut Down Old Trees
and Graft Yellow Xewtowns on
Xew Wood Will Eradicate
All the Pests.
A movement has been Inaugurated in
:very cMnty of the Willamette Valley for
the renovation of the old apple orchards
by cutting them to the ground, or within
about two feet of the ground, allowing
them to sprout out from the stump and
then to top-graft with Yellow Newtowns.
The movement is inaugurated by the
State Board of Horticulture, and the Wil
lamette Valley Apple Growers' Associa
tion, which give the following advice:
If the three-trunks are sound and it Is
desired to graft during the current year,
a perpendicular cut should be made,
through the bark and a small section of
wood, almost paralleling the bark and
scions inserted after being shaved" thin
and cut chiefly on the side nearest the
bark of the tree. Scions may also be
Inserted under the bark and through a
slit cut as If for budding.
"The bark-lips should be trimmed to
fit snugly around the projecting scion
and should be tied down and the wound
well waxed, especially behind the scion.
In the latter method scions should be in
serted 6 to 12 inches below the top of
the stump and should be placed where
limbs are desired. The stump should not
be spilt In any method of grafting.
"All trees should have their tops re
moved before March 1. Cut off the Whole
top with a cross-cut saw, taking care
that the remainder of the stump be not
split or its bark loosened. At least two
men should do the work. If scions are In
serted on the top of the stump several
Inches" of the stump will have to be taken
off again in April or May when the
grafting Is done. These methods require
somewhat more skill than to allow the
trees to grow a year and then to graft
Into the new wood.
"Any of these three methods will be
successful if carefully done. Jn three or
four years these trees will commence to
bear again and, being low, can be
sprayed easily and the fruit cared for
economically.
"I'ndcr present conditions It Is not pos
sible to spray old orchards successfully,
and a! I such orchards contain too many
varieties, few of which are of any com
mercial value. By the method proposed
the Willamette Valley can be made a
groat Y-?llow- Newtown orchard and will
handle its output through the Willamette
Valley Apple Growers' Association, air
ready formed.
"For many years these' old orchards
have been of no value to their owners,
and in their present form will be con
demned as public nuisances. But by
top-grafting with Yellow Newtowns they
will, at a very slight cost and a minimum
of labor, become most valuable assets to
their owners.
"This matter has been very carefully
considered by the leading horticulturists
of the state and the plan will be carried
out under the direction of the State Board
of Horticulture and through the Inspec
tors of the various counties. These of
ficials hope that every person in the Wil
lamette Valley owning these old trees
will adopt the suggestions made and in a
remarkably short time these brushheaps
that are eyesores all over the valley will
become sightly as well as profitable."
STEIWER PLEADS GUILTY

(his petition, which was circulated by
K. A. Putnam, the Government will in
sist that the investigation of alleged un
lawful fences in Wheeler County by Kd-'
ward W. Dixon, a special agent, in 1903,
. was made In response to the Putnam pe
tition and not on the application of Hall,
as will be alleged by the defense. The
text of the petition to Hermann follows:
To lion. Blnifr Hermann, V. S. Land Com
missioner. Washington. 1). C. :
Whereas. The Butte Creek Land. Live
stock & Lumbar Comnany. of Fossil.
Wheeler County. Oregon, and other rich
corporations are fencing up the public do
main and enclosing; thousands of acres of
Government land and driving the people's
mock from said enclosures, forcing them to
range upon barren tracts of rocky ridges
and desfrt-llke land, which at the dry
season of the year. Is almost destitute of
grass and water, thereby comnelllng- many
nettlers to dispone of their stock at ruin
ous prices, or move them to other sections
of the country.
Therefore, we, the undersigned citizens
and legal voters of Wheeler County. Ore
gon, ask that you take this matter in hand
and at your very earliest opportunity com
pel all companies, syndicates, land trusts
and private individuals to remove all fences
that encloso Government land within the
bounds of this county.
Furthermore, we ask that a special Gov
ernment official be sent into this - county
that all fraudulent land filings and land
entries may be Investigated thoroughly.
Defense Wins a Point.
Heney objected seriously to the exam
ination of Hendricks by J,udge Webster
on his crooked work in approving fraud
ulent homestead papers while serving as
Vnlted States Commissioner, contending
that Hendricks should be permitted to
stand on his right as a defendant and
should not be required to give testimony
that would incriminate himself in view
of the fact that he had appealed to the
Supreme Court the case In which he had
been convicted of subornation of per
jury. - Judge Webster asserted his right to
interrogate the witness as to his offi
cial acts Inasmuch as they related to the
homestead claims In which testimony had
shown Hendricks was directly interested.
Judge Hunt sustained the position of
Judge Webster and held that since Hen
dricks had voluntarily offered to testify,
the questions by defendant's counsel
were within the range of proper cross
examination. In the course of his cross-examination
Hendricks denied that he had told his
brother. R. J. Hendricks, of Salem, that
Hall was "hard and unyielding'" and
could not be tnduced to become a party
to any conspiracy. Hendricks did admit
that when he saw Hall in May. 1900. the
attitude of the District Attorney appar
ently was that of an officer who insisted
on performing his duty, although on re
direct examination by Heney he supple
mented this by saying that Hall seemed
more "tractable" after that Interview.
Zachary Promised Immunity.
C. B. Zachary, foreman for the Butte
treek Company, followed Hendricks and
testified that he had never received any
notice from Hall to remove the unlawful
fences by which the company had ille
gally inclosing public land. He also told
of making overtures to the Government
official and agreeing not only to plead
guilty to the Indictment charging con
spiracy, but also to take the stand and to
tell the truth of the fraudulent opera
tions of the Butte Creek Company. He
said that in consideration of his confes
slon and testimony for the prosecution
he was to be fined $250 and sentenced to
one day tn the llqiinty Jail.
in discussing the ease during the after
noon recess Heney declared that when
the trial began the Government was pre
pared with about 75 witnesses to prove
the conspiracy charge against every one
of the defendants that had been indicted.
This array of evidence served to take the
"fight" out of Hendricks and Zachary,
who had already been convicted, the for
mer on a charge of subornation of per
jury and the latter for perjury, and were
awaiting sentence, and they did not wish
to make a further defense of the con
spiracy charge. For -that reason they
had sought the Government officials and
requested an opportunity to plead guilty
and escape with a light sentence If pos
sible. Heney contends that' the Govern
ment had abundant evidence to establish
the conspiracy charge without any testi
mony from the three co-defendants who
have pleaded guilty, but admits that the
testimony of these three witnesses has
simplified the Government's case and ex
cused the necessity of examining many
of the witnesses that were originally
subpenaed in the case. It is denied by
Heney that either Hendricks or Zach
ary have been promised Immunity or any
other consideration In connection with
the charges on which they were convict
ed in 1906.- For those crimes Hendricks
and Zachary are liable' to terms in the
Penitentiary and will probably be sen
tenced when the pending trial is conclud
ed, or as soon as Hendricks' appeal has
been decided.

FRIGHTENED MOTORMAN SEXDS
CAR FULL SPEED AHEAD.
A. Sorenson Thrown in Mud, Then
Arrested and Kept in Jail
Over Night.
Arthur Sorenson, a mechanic, had his
clothes ruined, his face and hands lacer
ated badly and was compelled to spend
the night in jail under suspicion of being
a desperate criminal all on account of
the vivid imagination of Fred Loy, a
streetcar motorman. Not until the open
ing of Police Court, yesterday forenoon,
did Sorenson succeed In dispelling suspi
cions which Loy's groundless charges
brought on. Loy mistook a shadow on
Sorenson's face for a mask at an early
hour In the morning, while the latter was
attempting to board a car. ,
The car was going to the bams and was
crossing Alberta street and Williams
avenue with Loy at the controller, when
Sorenson stepped out to get aboard. Loy
thought -he saw a mask and put the car
ahead full speed. Sorenson, who lives
near the end of the line, attempted to
swing aboard and was hurled out into the
middle of the street, landing in a pool of
mud. .
Loy ran at full speed unt.l he encoun
tered a policeman. The officer induced
him to turn back with the car and make
an effort to find the masked holdup. As
they neared Alberta street a limping form
came out and hailed the car. The offi
cer induced the trembling carman to stop.
Instead of a robber he found a hapless
homeward-bound pedestrian covered with
mud and blood. A search of Sorenson's
clothing Tevealed no mask or even a
handkerchief which might have been
used as a mask. Nevertheless he was
taken to the city Jail and held on a
charge of being out after midnight. His
absurd detention was brought to an end
when the case came up in the Municipal
Court.
STATE OFFERS BIG REWARD
Four Thousand Dollars" for Arrest
of Casteel Murderers.
SALEM, Or., Jan 23. (Special.) Gov
ernor Chamberlain today offered a reward
of J4000 for the arrest and conviction of
the murderer of the Casteel family at
Macleay, about two months ago. The
offer of the reward came as a complete
surprise in official circles and can be ac
counted for only upon the supposition
that the Governor has been informed by
private parties that they have a clue and
are willing to follow It up with an in
vetigation if a reward shall be offered.
Sheriff Culver made a very exhaustive
investigation at the scene of the murder
and also secured a complete history of
the family affairs and relations of the
Casteels and Mort Montgomery, the hired
man. Culver was thoroughly convinced
that Montgomery killed the Casteels and
himself.- probably because he was in love
with the daughter, who was about to be
married to a man at Roseburg. The Di
strict Attorney is also satisfied this is
the correct theory of the crime.
CLEVER FORGER IS ARRESTED
Walla Walla Police Believe They
Have Old Offender in W. Foley.
WALLA WALLA, Wash.. Jan. 23. (Spe
cial.) A man giving the name of William
Foley is under arrest here for passing a
forged check for J148 on K. Falkenberg.
a local Jeweler, In payment for a gold
watch and diamond ring. He gave a check
on a Salt Lake City bank and showed a
bank book in which he was credited with
nearly $S500 In deposits. He also tried to
pass forged checks on other business
houses. Falkenberg took his check to the
Baker-Boyer Bank, who found upon tele
graphing to Salt Lake City that Foley had
no money on deposit there, and checks
bearing his name were being returned
every day to some place. When arrested
Foley bad in his possession other forged
checks and a telegram from a confederate
In Seattle warning him to get out of
Walla Walla.
Foley was arrested by Chief of Police
Davis after midnight last night. Foley
had been making himself a good fellow
about pleasure resorts. Police believe he
is an expert forger and an old offender,

NEW GAS-EU5CTRIC CAR IS jEXrECTKD TO KJEVOLUTIONIZK RAILROADING ON SHORT I,IJES.
SCHENECTADY. N. T., Jan. 15. (Special.) The new gas-electric car. which Is expected to revolutionize railroading
on short .lines was given an official test today In the presence of a party of representative men from the Delaware A
Hudson Railroad and American Locomotive and General Electric Companies. The car was specially designed and con
structed by the General Electric Company for steam railroad work and may be used on several of the branch roads
owned by the Delaware & Hudson Company, Judging from the success of today's test run.
The novel car left the new union station at 11 o'clock carrying the party to Delanson. From Delanson the test con- '
tlnued over the Susquehanna branch of the road to Albany, thence to Troy and home via Mechanlcsville. The test was
even -more satisfactory than was anticipated and the engineers were delighted with the performance of the car. The
machinery was given a thorough trial on all kinds of grades and curves and at times hit up a speed of 60 miles an hour
-r-whlch Is not its limit for speed under more favorable conditions.
This new type of gas-electric car takes the place of steam engines and trains on short-line work. It combines in
one the powerhouse, transmission lines, substations and all the benefits of the electric traction Without the costly and
cumbersome features of the trolley. A powerful gas engine drives an electric generator. The current obtained In this
way supplies power to the motors which drive the car. The gas engine, which consumes gasoline, runs very smoothly
and the electrical equipment assures perfect control of speed, even acceleration and as comfortable riding as Is enjoyed
In the modern lnterurban electric.
mis car represents tne highest
safety with the minimum of weight.
The car Is of the combination type and comprises one ordinary passenger compartment, a smoking-room, a baggage
room, an engine-room, a toilet and an observation compartment.
nance now being drafted. If he does, It
means the end of the Lambert device, for
the charter plainly says that the Mayor,
as well as the Council, must approve.
Mayor Lane has called the attention of
thepeclal committee of the City Council,
consisting of Councilmen Vaughn, Baker
and Drlscoll, to the fact that their action
on the selection of the fender so far has
been very irregular. This alone Is re
garded as most signitlcant, but it is
known that the Mayor favors the Liver
pool fender, believing it to be the best
manufactured today, and this adds to the
impression that he will veto the ordinance
now being drafted by City Attorney
Kavanaugh approving the Lambert
fender. , - '
When interviewed yesterday afternoon,
Mayor Lane admitted that he had not
been acting with the special committee of
the City Council in the selection of a
fender, and that he had not so much as
seen the Lambert fender. He would not,
however, make any statement as to his
Intentions. He admits that the Liverpool
fender should at least be given a fair
trial.
Another feature that is giving the offi
cials some cause for hesitating regarding
the Lambert fender is the fact that the
makers of the Eclipse fender, in use in
Los Angeles, have served notice that their
patent is infringed by the Lambert. They
threaten to enjoin the city from using the
Lambert fender, and to take the case
into the courts to protect their rights.
It was only after weeks of debate that
the fender committee composed of Council
men Vaughn, Baker and Driscoll agreed
upon the Lambert. However, it is an
open secret that Mr. Vaughn, who was
chairman of the committee, was not
favorable to the Lambert, as he desired
the Eclipse. He acquiesced simply for the
sake of arriving at an agreement on a
certain fender, and frankly said so when
the committee reported in favor of the
adoption of the Lambert.
Consequently, it looks as If the fender
problem were no nearer a solution than
it was a year ago. ,

"The old times when father and mother

False Alarm of Burglars.
The wind was responsible early yes

alarm from the fur store of Rummelin &
Sons, Second and Washington streets,
giving the police an interesting and ex
citing time for three quarters of an hour,
and arousing G. P. Rummelin, the head of
the firm, out of his bed at 4 o'clock. The
alarm is connected Vith all the windows
and other means of entrance in the build
ing and is part of a system operated by
the Western Union Telegraph Company.
At 4 A. M. the alarm started the operator
of the telegraph company, at Third and
Oak streets, who Immediately notified the
police and Mr. Rummelin by telephone.
Captain Bailey, accompanied by several
officers, investigated and found a loose
window catch to be responsible.
MAY INCREASE PENSIONS
Indian War Veterans Would Benefit
From Ankeny's Bill.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington, Jan. 23. At the behest of the sur
vivors of the early Indian wars in the
Northwest. Senator Ankeny has intro
duced a bill granting them an increase
of pension. Several bills for this purpose
are now pending in Congress, and it Is a
question which one, if any, will be taken
up for action.
The Ankeny bill provides that every In
dian was pensioner now on the roll, or
who may hereafter be granted a pension,
shall receive $12 Instead of $8 per month
from the date of filing his original ap
plication, provided he has not reached the
age of 65. Pensioners who are 65 or
over shall receive $15 per month, and
those who are 70 shall draw 130 per
month. As most of the veterans are 70
years of age or older, the bill virtually
increases the pensions of Indian war
veterans from $8 to $20 per month.
All members from the Northwest are
interested in securing an Increase of pen

HIGHWAYMAN SECURES $19
Knocks J. W. Hyde Down and Ri
fles His Pockets.
J. W. Hyde, who lives at 303 Fourth
street, was waylaid by a highwayman
last night shortly before 12 o'clock, and
robbed of $19.40. Hyde was on his way
home and was walking along the south
side of Jefferson street. Between Sec
ond and Third 'streets a man approached
him from the opposite directton and in
the middle of the block . paused and
waited for him. The man was very tall
and was dressed In dark clothes with the
ibrlm of his hat pulled down and the col
lar of his coat turned up so that Hyde
did not get a ghod look at him. A gun
was thrust in Hyde's face. Hyde reached
into his pocket to find his money and the
highwayman evidently mistaking It for
an effort to get a weapon, struck him vio
lently over the head with his gun and
knocked him down.
The footpad then rifled Hyde's pockets
and fled.

FIGHT AT WEDDING
Nuptial Party Finds Collector
Waiting at Church.
WITH BILL FOR CARDS

ments and Is Floored by Right
Fist or Best Man May Ap
peal to the Law.
Forgetfulness of an order for wedding
cards nearly broke up a bridal procession
in front of St. Patrick's Church on
Wednesday. It may yet break in on the
honeymoon.' For the man who failed in
breaking up the wedding procession in
order to collect for the cards declared
of power and
kind ever built.
his Intention yesterday of securing a war
rant of arrest for the best man if not
for the groom. He Is only waiting to
learn the Identity of the best man, an
athletic person with a fearful wallop in
his right hand, but otherwise unknown.
The wedding in question was that which
united Robert Cahill and Miss Freda
Grlschau, a young Portland couple. E. L.
C'antonwine, a printer, is the man who
tried to break up the bridal procession.
The wedding was on the verge of being
transformed into a boxing exhibition,
when a mounted policeman chanced to
pass, and he succeeded in restoring peace.
Cantonwine runs a printing shop at 210
Madison street. Early, last week the
young groom called on him and left an
order for wedding cards. He said all
was decided concerning the wedding ex
cept the hour. He would call later and
give that information.
The printer heard nothing further of
the groom. At the last hour he decided
to get the cards out anyway, and. doing
this, he sent them to the Cahill resi
dence. Guessing at the hour. Cantonwine
announced on the cards that the wedding
would occur at 8 o'clock. It did not oc
cur until an hour later.
Several times the printer called at the
Cahill home for his pay; He was not
admitted.. So he watched for the wedding
procession, and when the wedding party
reached the chapel they found the col
lector in waiting. Cantonwine tried to in
terview the groom, but was thrust aside
by the best man, a muscular youth, who
has doubtless been the best man at other
events than weddings, as Cantonwine was
soon to learn. Failing to collect, the
printer watted until the procession was
leaving the church. Then he made a
scene by waving- his bill in the groom's
face and demanding Immediate payment.

At this point that most serviceable best

abandoned all desire to make collection,
concentrating his attention on the more
immediate need of attending his damaged
pnysiognomy. Now he says he will take
the matter up with the law.
