BLURTS OUT TALE
OF MANY
WRONGS
J. Whits Evans Repeats Tale
of Blackmail Owen Also
Has Tale to Tell.
TOOK AWAY OWENS' WIFE
Former Friends Expose One An-
' other's Becords ITnsparingly in
Court O-acns Doubts Whether
Evans Married Mrs. Owens.
LOS ANGELES, Cal., June (Spe
cialsBefore a crowded courtroom and
displaying an animosity that appeared
foreign to a man of his demeanor, J.
Whyte Evans, of Portland, who headed
a party of Los Angeles financiers over
two years ago and formed the United
Railways Company in the Rose City,
laid bare the secret of his past today
during the trial, of Dr. J. S. Owens, of
this city, former husband of Mrs. Evans
who is accused of having extorted money
from Evans on the strength of his
prison record.
"For seven years he Jias pursued me
with demands for money. He knew that
I had been Jn San Quentin Penitentiary
for an indiscretion 1 committed when I
first came to California. I had told
him when we were bosom friends, but
he wanted money, always money, and
used his knowledge' of my conviction to
persecute me continuously. I paid him
until I finally was driven to desperation
and decided to put a stop to it by hav
ing him arrested for blackmail."
Gets Outburst Before Jury.
The outburst came as a surprise to
William Anderson, who is assisting Depu
ty District Attorney Paul J. McCormick
in the prosecotlon of Dr. Owens, and he
was unable to enter an objection to the
denunciation until the witness had fin
ished. Then counsel succeeded in having
Judge Charles Monroe strike the state
ment from the record as not responsive to
the question, but the full force of the
unexpected utterance was apparently not
lost on the jury.
It was the most stirring day of the
trial, which has already caused as much
Interest as the most celebrated cases in
the history of Southern California. Back
Rnd forth flashed incidents in the past
life of first one and then the other of
the principals in the affair, and appar
ently nothing was omitted to strengthen
the . side of each.
Loans or Blackmail?
Letters and telegrams were read that
had passed between Owens and Evans
regarding the alleged debt of the latter
to the accused, said to amount to $3000,
and to represent borrowed money.
Evans declared vehemently that he
owed Owens nothing, and that through
Owens' system of demands, he had paid
Owens more than had ever been re
ceived during their days of friendship.
Owens said he was in the courtroom
several years ago when Evans took out
naturalization papers, and that Evans
did not answer the question as to his
prison record. Evans denied that.
A letter was read which Owens ad
mitted having written to J. V. McNeil,
of Chicago, a brother Maccabee, In
which he threatened to secure the lat
ter's expulsion from the order unless
the money owed him was paid. Owens
said he was McNeil's family physician
and had to resort to such measures to
enforce collection. Regarding the re
lations of Owens' former wife with
Evans, the defendant said:
"He went with my former wife to
Scotland, they stopped at the Audi
torium in Chicago and I telephoned him
from the Sherman House and asked
him to pay some of the money. He
gave me $250 and promised to give
me a goodly sum on his return from
the European trip if he succeeded in
disposing of his holdings in Ocean
Park, which he said was worth $13,000.
I went to California and learned he
had deceived me. When I asked him
later to live- up to his promise he
bought wine and jollied me. Finally
I lost patience. My letters and tele
grams brought no tangible results. I
had to stop him from robbing honest
people; it was my duty to the public.
"I told my wife all about him be
fore she left me for him. I told her
that he was an ex-convlct and had a
wife, destitute, in Scotland, from whom
he had not been divorced. Upon the
head of our little girl.' I implored her
to think it over before she cast her
lot with him.
Does Not Believe They Married.
"Did J. WMyte Evans ever marry your
former wife?"' was asked.
"I don't believe he ever did," replied
Owens. "I asked her. I asked him. I
asked her friends and my friends, but
they refused to tell me." Owens broke
down and wept.
When asked what he meant by a sen
tence in one letter reading: "The woman
you are now living with," Owens said:
"I meant that my former wife, shortly
after she had divorced me, was living
in the same building with Evans, with an
open door between their respective apart
ments." The case will be argued tomorrow.
PICK POCKETS OF CROWD
Thieves Busy During Fast Side
Carnival Last Xight.
Pickpockets worked freely last night
in the crowds which were banked in
along the East Side thoroughfares
where the carnival held sway. The uni
formed force of the Police Department
was busily engaged in handling the
crowd, and It was to the detective force
that the prevention of this class of
crime was left, with little or no suc
cess. The captain on duty In charge
of the police station last night re
ceived numerous complaints from peo
ple who had been victimized by light
fingered pickpockets. The heaviest
losses reported were by Dr. T. J.
pierce, of 368 Sixth street, and Miss.
Mary Dupasquier. of Oregon City. Dr.
Pierce lost a diamond scarfpln valued
at $300. He was robbed at the corner
of Grand avenue and East Morrison
street during a slight disturbance and
much pushing, said to have been start
ed on purpose by a confederate of the
pickpocket. Miss Dupasquier was
robbed of a valuable gold watch and
her pocketbook, containing $8 In cash.

OJUTA1PIA, Wash,, Juno 4, .Special.)
Where a year ago numerous defects were
In evidence in the cars and engines of
the Northwestern railroads, defects are
now the exception In this state, accord
ing to a report just made by A. W. Per
ley. State Track and Equipment In
spector, to the Railroad Commission.
Since April 1, 1907, he reports he has in
spected 12,261 cars and 1024 engines. Of
these 1149 cars and 151 engines were
found defective: He also reports as fol
lows: i
I find much improvement both to equip
ment and track conditions. No chained-up
cars are now being handled out of terminals,
as was formerly the case. Air brakes and
air appliances on engines have improved and
air brakes on cars are being kept in better
condition and are receiving more attention
than formerly. I also And the defects on
cars and engines are being- reduced. A year
ago numerous defects were in evidence and
now they are the exception. This may be
attributed to the lessening of traffic, but is
In my opinion largely due to the Increased
attention given equipment.
I have much pleasure in saying that,
while the above condition prevails. It has
been accomplished ' without friction from
any source. Officials and employes have
done all that could be expected to make
tha duties of your Inspector pleasant and to
bring about the desired result.

PERITONITIS FOLLOWS OPERA
TIOX FOR APPENDICITIS.
Patient Sinks Rapidly After the Or
deal and Life is De
spaired of.
NEW YORK, June 4. With his family
at his bedside, Oliver H. P. Belmont was
hovering between life and death late to
night at his country home near Hemp
stead, L. I. After an operation for ap
pendicitis, performed at noon. Mr. Bel
mont developed peritonitis and sank so
rapidly that it was feared he would not
survive the night. Although th-v would
not say that all hope had been aban
doned, his physicians admitted that their
patient's condition was very precarious.
Mrs. Belmont and her son, William K.
Vanderbilt, Jr., and the latter's wife are
within immediate call of the chamber at
the Belmont home, and one of three
surgeons In attendance is constantly at
the patient's bedside.
Mr. Belmont's Illness dates from Tues
day of this week, when his family phy
sician found him in such a serious con
dition that a consultation was called.
Indications of Improvement were seen
within a few hours, and although It was
known that he had appendicitis, it wa
hoped an operation might be averted.
Yesterday there was a turn for the worse
and an operation was performed.
The patient did not rally well from Its
effects and It soon appeared that peri
tonitis had set in. The Infection spread
and by tonight had become general. Mr.
Belmont's brothers. August Belmont and
rerry Belmont, who art in Europe, have
teen notified by cable of his condition.

Half the time when a person feels blue and out
of sorts you may take it for granted that he is a victim
of the "lard habit." Lard-cooked food and good
stomachs are never friends for long. Lard food is not
healthful "food and no ordinary stomach can thoroughly
digest it.
Lard comes from the pig-sty; Cottolene from the
cotton fields of The Sunny South. Lard is greasy,
indigestible, and sometimes absolutely harmful; Cot
tolene makes food digestible, nu
tritious, delicious. Cottolene 'is the
perfect shortening and frying me
dium. It is pure and healthful.
Itcontains not an ounceof hog-fat.
Cottolene is today in use by
thousands of housewives who
would no more think of going
back to lard than they would of
reverting to tallow dips for light
ing their homes.
. Cottolene is one of the prod
ucts which pure food advocates
always endorse.
