ments Begin Today.
HENEY FIRST TO SPEAK
iovornmcnt Prosecutor Will Be Fol
lowed by Judge 'Webster Case
to Go to Jury Thurs
day Afternoon.
IOOAVS PKOVRAMMK IN THE
HALF, TRIAL.
Final arguments in the John H.
Hal! conspiracy case will begin at 10
. o'clock this morninfj. At 3:25 o'clock
yestenlay afterncon Francis J. Honey
announced that the Government rested
Its cape, and one hour later Judge

fendant. Heiley will make the opening
address to the Jury at 10 o'clock this

Judge Webster, who will not conclude
until late ttila afternoon or tomorrow
nvminK. when Heney will finish his
address. Judge- Hunt will give his
Instructions and the case will probably
go to the Jury early Thursday after
noon. Before closing the Government's case
against Hall yesterday, Mr. Heney called
a number of witnesses to prove that
United States Attorney "W. C. Bristol was
mistaken in the testimony he gave for
the defense in an attempt to impeach
H. H. Hendricks. ex-United States Cora
mlssloner. In addition. Heney took the
stand also and testified to an interview
with Bristol regarding the facts to which
Hendricks had testified. Afterwards
Judge Webster for the defense recalled
Kristol but the cross-examination uy
Heney left the Impression that the United
States Attorney -was mistaken in dates
md circumstances on which he had gtven
testimony for the defense.
In his direct testimony, Bristol declared
that he never had held any conversation
tvith Hendricks or considered any propo
lal by which Hendricks in August, 1006,
asked for immunity or any consideration
Irora the Government should he testify tor
the Government against Hall and Her
inanu. . Bristol further repudiated the
telegram signed by himself and forwarded
to Heney in San Francisco on August 10,
l!K)fi, following his alleged interview with
Hendricks, In which Hendricks had asked
that the pronouncing of sentence against
himself, which was set for the following
day, be postponed for a week that he
might confer with Heney as to tnc test!
mony he could give in the other cases to
be tried. Bristol insisted that tne tele
gram was sent by Irvm Rittenhouse, pri
vate secretary to Heney, without any
authority -from Bristol.
T. B. Neuhausen, Special Inspector to
the Interior Department, and Miss Flex
ner. stenographer in the United "States
Attorney's office, testified that they saw
Hendricks and Bristol hold a conference
In the United States Attorney's office in
the Federal building on the night of Au
gust 10, 190S, the night the Bristol-Heney
telegram was sent. Trvln Rittenhouse.
secretary to Heney, told not only of hav
ing seen Hendricks in Bristol's office on
the night that was disputed and that, fol
lowing the interview in Bristol's private
oWlce, Bristol instructed him to send the
telegram to Heney. The following morn
ing Rittenhouse testifies! that Heney had
telephoned Neuhausen from San Fran
cisco. Neuhausen imparted the message
. to the witness who communicated It to
Kristol Just before Court convened on the
morning that Hendricks was to be sen
tenced for subornation of perjury of
which he had been convicted. Hen
dricks was then called and testified that
either on motion or suggestion from Bris
tol in court on August 11, the time for
pronouncing sentence against, him was
postponed until the following week.
Heney sought to have both Neuhausen
and Rittenhouse tell the substance of the
telephone message they had received from
Heney which was delivered to Bristol in
answer to the F.ristol-Heney telegram,
but Judge 'Webster successfully resisted
tho introduction of such "testimony be
cause of its irrelevancy aud incompetency.
Minor dates and circumstances attending
the sending of the telegram and the re
ceipt of tho telephone message from
1 leney in reply were testified 4o by Hor
ace Stevens, who was then a reporter for
The Oregonian: find Harry H. Hamilton,
clerk at the Imperial Hotel.
When the (rovernment had rested its
case. Judge "Webster called Bristol who
testified substantially to the same facts
he did on his first examination. He de
nied positively and emphatically ever hav
ing talked with Hendricks when the latter
made overtures for immunity from the
Government.
Irvin Rittenhouse was the last witness
for the prosecution, being recalled just
before Heney rested the Government's
case. Against the earnest objections of
Judge Webster, who charged that the
testimony related to a transaction en
tirely foreign to the conspiracy indict
ment. Rittenhouse was permitted to
Ulontify three signatures of George C.
Brownell's name which had been written
by Henry Meldrum while the latter, was
In Portland. January 25 last, expecting to
be a witness In the Hall trjal. The pur
pose of having the Meldrum signatures
of Brownell's name offered in evidence
was to convince the jury that Brownell's
name had been forged to various fraudu
lent field notes and survey applications.
Meldrum was brought to this city from
McNeil's Island to testify that he had
forged .the name of Browncll to those
documents, but Judse Hunt sustained the
objections of the defense and excluded
the testimony, brime time before the
Hell trial began, Meldrum sent to
Brownell a written confession admitting
that he had forged Brownell's name to
the applications for survey. It was these
alleged genuine signatures of Brownell of
which Special Inspector Greene had
knowledge and because of which Brown
ell testified that Hall had Intimated he
would Indict Brownell if the latter did
not retire from the contest for appoint
ment as United States Attorney In 1903.
Following Bristol, the defense closed
Its case by calling R. L. Durham, a
member of the grand Jury, which met in
March, lfl04. and Sylvester Farrel, fore
man of the grand Jury of October. 1002.
Mr. Durham was called for the purpose
of Impeaching the testimony of J. V.
Hetdeick, who had testified for the Gov
ernment that Special Agent Loomls de
liberately neglected to make a careful
examination of the Puter claims in the
famous "11-7" cases. Mr. Farrell testi
fied that Hall appeared before the grand
Jury In 1902 and advised it on the Thayer
land-fraud case only when he had been
requested to give some Information on a
question of law.
During the afternoon the testimony of
Kdwin Mays was further discredited by
that of Captain J. A. Sladen, who was
.called by Heney, and testified that in Oc-'j
tober, 1!H1, Charles E. Hayes, of Tilla
mook, called at the Federal building ad
requested of the witness permission to
file a criminal information against
Thayer and his ascoclates for making
fraudulent timber land entries. Captain
Sladen said he took Hayes into the office
of the Vnited States Attorney and' intro
duced him to Edwin Mays, who was
then. Assistant District Attorney. On di
rect examination. Mays had testified that
ho did not know anything of the alleged
Thayer frauds until he took charge of
the grand jury which made the investi
gation in October, 1902, a year later.
At the forenoon session, E. A. Putnam
was recalled by Heney and positively
Identified the Government's exhibit in
evidence was the township map he had
sent to Hall in April, 13C0. Putnam's
identification' of the plan was supported
by the description of his pencil tracing
detailed In the letter which accompanied
the map and which were found to tally
closely with the markings on the draw

In rebuttal, and little or nothing was
brought out that tended to show criminal
intent. Judge Cameron, at the conclu
sion of the examination, announced that
he would take tho matter under advise
ment and would render a decision this
morning.
Before announcing his intention to take
the matter under advisement. Judge Cam
eron said that he could not se Lowit's
individual connection with the alleged
larceny, whereas the testimony showed
that if there had been a crime, there
were several parties to the offense, and
that the direct charge of larceny had not
been sustained.
During the trial it was brought out that
goods and merchandise had been trans
ferred from the Golden Eagle department
store to . branch institution, and that
tho same goods were charged to the ac
count of the Golden Eagle.' but nothing
was Introduced to show that there had
been any criminal motive in this transac

OF DEATH WARRANT TO WHICH ERNEST HEYMANS FORGED DR. CAREY T.VLBOTS NAME.
as the result of a criminal operation,
fled from Portland last Saturday night
or Sunday morning, is the belief of the
officials who have been investigating the
case. All efforts of the police and Dis
trict Attorney to effect Heyman's cap
ture have failed. He is charged with
forging the name of Dr. Carey Talbot to
a death certificate.
District .Attorney Manning is ready to
prosecute Hcymans, if he should be cap
tured, and says that in case of a trial
it is quite probable that much' light will
be -thrown on the alleged practices of
several local physicians. .It is intimated
that a number of licensed physicians
have been sending female patients to the
X-Radium Institute for treatment, and
that some of the happenings at that es
tablishment would startle the public if
told of in court.
Coroner Finley yesterday made an of
ficial statement, to the effect that he
must have made a clerical error when he
fixed the place of Miss Rowland's death
as 1171 Macadam street, the home of her
parents, instead of the X-Radium Insti
tute in signing the customary papers.
He also said that he held no inquest be
cause he wished to shield the reputation
of the young woman and of her parents.
Dr. J. K. Locke, the autopsy physician,
says he did his full duty when he per
formed the autopsy and reported his
finding to Coroner Finley. Dr. Locke
does not remember who requested that he
hold the autopsy, but believes that Hey
mans, or some one connected with the
institute, sought his services for the au
topsy. He did simply what any repu
table physician would do in .such a case,
he says. Having made known the facts
to Coroner Finley, he supposed it was the
duty of the coroner to act, if it was the
duty of anyperson.
Mother Tells Her Story.
Mrs. Rowland, mother of the victim of
malpractice, yesterday made the follow
ing statement:
"My daughter was a pure, innocent
girl, and I am confident that she has
been wronged In this matter. All I ask
is that my side of the story be published.
Last Summer Golda's health failed while
she was teaching school, and she came
hoyie. I urged her, when I thought she
neded medical attention, to go to Dr.
Harry McLaughlin, at St. John, but when
Golda visited that place, she found that
Dr. McLaughlin was in Europe and
would not return for some time. Golda
grew gradually worse and I insisted that
she secure medical aid as soon as pos
sible. She did not like to visit a male
physician, and I concurred in her wish to
see a woman doctor. That she was af
flicted with some disease peculiar to her
sex I was perfectly confident. While
looking over the newspapers we saw the
advertisement of Dr. Mary Lane, and
Golda said she thought she would visit
that Institute.
"Previous to her return home I had
advised her to go to the beach for I
believed that all she needed was rest and
recreation. She spent several weeks at
Long Beach. While there she met a
young man to whom she became be
trothed. When she "came back, she ex
pressed a wish to be cured of her ailment
as soon as possible in order that she
might marry this young. man. It was at
this time, probably that she saw the Dr.
Mary Lane advertisement, and we de
cided that she should consult those peo
ple. Golda came home one day and told
me that she had visitdd the Dr. Mary
Lane Institute, and had seen the woman
who posed as the doctor, . and had been
told that she would have to undergo an
operation.
"I Inquired the nature of the operation,
and Golda replied that she had been in
formed that it was not exactly an op
eration, but Involved a surgeon's serv
ices. I did not like the idea, but the girl
was bent on being cured and I did not
oppose her. Now I regret that I did not,
for I never saw her alive again. Some
time during the night she visited the doc
tor for the operation. I was summoned
to the Mary Lane Institute by a mes
senger, although no warning of the truth
was given me. When I arrived I found
that my daughter had been dead for
several hours. -
Involves Dr. Talbot.
"The woman who posed as Dr. Mary
Lane, and who I later learned was Dr.
Carey Talbot, cautioned me to make no
disturbance, as it would do no good and
would only injure my daughter's reputa
tion. "I am positive that my daughter was
uncontaminated, and I am ready to swear
that she was pure. She went to the insti
tute Monday, and the next we heard of
her she was dead.
"In addition to cautioning me not to
make a rumpus over "the death of my
daughter, the people at the institute
showed me a slanderous letter, which
they said incriminated my dead child.
Dr. Mary Lane is a fictitious person, and
is none other than Dr. Talbot. Dr.
Talbot and the man in charge of the in
stitute told me- at least 10 different sto
ries,, and I believe that they concocted
the story and letters to cast blame on the

FINED FOR STREET DUEL
JAPANESE LOVERS PAY FOR
PROMISCUOUS SHOOTING.
Bloodless Affray Costs K. Suida
$100 and His Rival $30 In
Municipal Court.
K. Suida. the yomg Japanese who tried
to slaughter his rival In love, M. Tak
sugl, on the street several days ago, paid
$100 to the city yesterday -for. using the
public thoroughfare as a dueling place.
"Suida had to mutilate his underclothing
in order to extract the money to pay his
fine, as he had his savings carefully
sewed up.
Taksugi. the rival, had to pay $30 for
participating in the duel. It was shown
in the Municipal Court yesterday fore
noonr that both men had been firing, and
that the local Japanese population' was
not diminished was due only to the bad
marksmanship of the lovers. .
Their guns were of small caliber and
next to useless. They emptied the guns
at close range. Suida ran in cowardly
fashion when he had finished shooting,
and the other opened up on him with a
popgun or the 32 caliber variety.
The girl in the case did not appear yes
terday. She is said to be a fickle Orien
tal of the North End variety. This is not
the first trouble that her suitors have
engaged In. - ,

The Manufacturers' Association, has ac
complished a great work in attracting en
terprises of different character here. The
organization has never been more suc
cessful in this, work than at present. The
Star Drill Company, of Akron. O.. has
representatives in Portland in communi
cation with the association, seeking a
site for a factory here. 1 This company
is a $1,000,000 concern and manufactures
drilling machinery of all Ikinds. It has
a plant at Akron as well as another In
Kansas, and employs 450 men. The com
pany wants to secure three acres here
convenient to a railroad track. Secre
tary Vincent hopes to And something
suited to the needs of the company within
a short time.
Another concern that the association is
working for is a fiber furniture factory.
Conditions here are said to be Ideal. for
the success of this plant, which was
formerly operated in Hongkong, China,
by T. P. Keeney. The furniture is made
of jute on wood frames. There is little
doubt that the plant will be secured.
Native woods could ' "be used for the
frames of the furniture rand the Jute for
covering it can be shipped irt at little ex
pense. The association Is actively at work en
deavoring to secure additional capital for
a woolen mill already established in one
of the interior towns of the state. The
plant is already in operation, with pros
pects of becoming a good paying institu
tion, and invites a splendid field for in
vestors. U The directors passed a resolution calling
on the Council to secure a water tower
and otherwise improve the city's fire
fighting facilities. .
Telegrams were sent by the association
to Senators Bourne and Fulton asking
that they support the Eeveridge bill to
create a tariff commission.

' Shooting Is Favored.
The annual meeting and election of of
ficers of the Oregon Fish and Game Asso
ciation -was held at the rooms of the
Chamber of Commerce last night, and
was Ihe largest in the history of the or
ganization. The necessity of remedying
defects of the law passed by the last
Legislature, which practically renders
past legislation void, occupied the atten
tion of the members.
After a lengthy discussion of the pro
posed law and its amendments, the elec
tion of officers was taken up, and the

Bowles, James A. Kelly and W. Backus.
Among other subjects, discussed was the
protection of wild fowl on their breed
ings grounds in the Klamath Like dis
trict arid in other sections of Southern
Oregon. At present Indians and others
are in the habit of seizing the eggs of
the birds to eat or sell.
Several members of the association
from the interior of the state and Wil
lamette Valley points requested the asso
ciation to work to" amend the game' laws
to allow duck shooting during the month
of February, asserting that the ducks do
not go Into the interior until about Christ
mas. These members favored the chang
ing of the first-day of the open season
from September 15 to a later date. In or
der that the season may be extended to
include February. This matter received
favorable attention and will be submitted
to the committee on legislation. At the
suggestion of Dr. P. S. Langworthy, it
was decided to adopt an emblem and a
conmittee was appointed to- select a de
sign. These emblems will be distributed
among the members of the association.

NEW LAW HARD TO FRAME
Kavanatigh Drafting Ordinance to
Keep Women From Saloons.
Women will be barred from all saloons
in Portland, if the proposed ordinance be
ing drafted by City Attorney Kavanaugh
and his deputies Is passed by tho Council.
The measure will be. introduced into the
Council at its next session, one week from

new ordinance is still in process of for
mation, and is proving to be the most dif
ficult "piece of legal construction his .of

torney to draft tho measure, at a re
cent meeting of the liquor-lhense commit

Why
Suffer?
If you suffer pain from
any cause, Dr. Miles' Anti
Pain Pills will relieve it
and leave no bad after
effects. That's the impor
tant thing. Neither do
they create a habit. More
often the attacks become
less frequent, or disappear
altogether. Dr. Miles'
Anti-Pain Pills have no
other effect except to re
lieve pain and quiet nerv
ous irritation. '
"We are never without Dr. Miles'
Anti-Pain Fills. "My husband and
son., aged 15 were always subject .to
sick' headache until we began using
these -Pills, and they have broken
them up entirely Don't think they
have bad o use them for six months.
I recommend them to every one. A
few weeks ago I heard an old lady
friend was sick. I went to see her.
She was down with LnGrippe. and
nearly crazy with awful backache.
I gave her tine of tho Anti-Pain Pills
and left another for her to take In
a short time. They helped her right
away, and she iays she will never be
without them again. I.ast winter my
husband was taken with pluerisy on
both sides, and I know he would have
died if it hadn't been for the Pills.
In less than half an hour he was
sweating, and went to bod and slept."
