CHINESE ARSENAL
T
Weapons of Tong Warfare Are
Used as Evidence in Trial
of Lem Woon.
TWO JURORS YET NEEDED
Ten Accepted of (2 7 Examined, Six
Being Challenged by Defense! and
Two by State What Consti
tutes Reasonable Doubt?
Knives, revolvers, a repeating rifle,
hatchets. Iron billy-clubs, brass knuckles
and tallow candles in miscellaneous as
sortment were brought to the courtroom
yesterday, to be used as exhibits In the
Lem Woon highbinder murder trial. The
weapons secured by the police from the
Chinese were so heavy, and so numerous
that two men were required to bring them
to court. When the proper time comes
they will be introduced by the state's
counsel as evidence of the tong war which
resulted in the slaughter of Lee Dai Hoy,
wilh which Lem Woon and Yee Gueng
stand accused.
The weapons were checked up and
placed in the custody of Deputy Clerk
Smith. They are as follows: Two .41
callher Colt's revolvers; one .38-caliber
Smith & Wesson special revolver; one .44
caliber Winchester rifle; two new
hatchets; eight knives, of miscellaneous
size and design, all sharp and ready for
use: four iron bllly-elubs; two pairs brass
kunckles: one-half box .41-caliber cart
ridges; four tallow candles; ten boxes .38
caliber cartridges.
Yee Gueng was to have been placed on
trial yesterday for the same offense with
which Lem Woon is charged, but his case
was continued and will stand or fall
according to the verdict of the jury in
Im Woon's case. A trial for Yee Gueng
will, of course, be necessary in case Lem
Woon is convicted.
Charge Against Defendant.
Lem Woon is charged with having
wilfully murdered Lee Dai Hoy, a local
Chinese merchant, at the entrance to a
Swelling house at Fourth and Pine streets,
March 7, last. Together with Yee Gueng,
he Is said to have lain in wait for his vic
tim and then to have shot him in cold
blood. The murder is said to have been
the result of rivalry between factions of
the Bow On Tong.
Sheriff Stevens searched no Chinamen
yesterday for concealed weapons, al
though the courtroom was filled with Ori
entals in the afternoon. Careful watch
Is being kept, however, that no violence
may be attempted until the trial is com
pleted. Lem Woon, young and slender,
sits behind his attorneys, watching care
rully every move of court, counsel or
Jurors.
At 5 o'clock last night only ten jurors
had been accepted of 27 examined since
the case commenced FYiday afternoon.
The accepted Jurors are: J. H. Barton,
W. E. Brooks. Alonzo Perkins, H. W.
Silton. W. W. George, H. C. Haack, Al
fred Anderson, F. W. Carroll, James An
derson and William Cobb. Only three of
these were secured yesterday. The jurors
excused are: Mark W. Gill, E. G. Goding,
O. C. R. Kills. John Fisher, W. B. Buell,
Hunry W. Wagner, H. T. Faust," J. R.
Gilstrap. Charles G. Bunte, Gus P. Clerin,
J. S. Day, Thomas Condon; J.. Wallace
Duirgy. F. M. Austin, E. H. Deery. James
Bell and David Cathey. Nine of these
were excused for cause by the court, six
were peremptorily challenged by the de
fense and two by the state.
Question of Reasonable Doubt.
The question of what constitutes a reas
onable doubt came up yesterday after
noon when F. H. Deery was under exam
ination. Attorney Dan J. Malarkey, spe
cial counsel for the state, challenged him
for cause when .he said he would not con
vict Lem should he entertain any doubt
as to his guilt. Attorney Logan contested
the challenge and saved an exception to
the ruling of the court disqualifying the
juror. Mr. Logan said a reasonable doubt
was any doubt which a reasonable man
might entertain. He referred to Judge
Gantenbeln's definition, that a "reason
able doubt is a reasonable doubt" and
said it was simply not a whimsical doubt.
In deciding the matter," Judge Bronaugh
said that the law does not contemplate
that the human mind attains the point
where the conviction is absolutely positive
as to a man's guilt.
James Bell, who has been in the real
estate business in Portland for three
months, was disqualified because he said
that if he had the sworn statements of
five white men and five Cnlnamen, which
were conflicting, he would believe the
white men's testimony against that of the
Chinese.,
During a flve-minute recess in the after
noon. Attorney Logan took Attorney Ma
larkey to task for making a loud remark
In regard to some of the testimony while
Juror H. C. Haack was standing almost
at his elbow.
Yesterday afternoon J. J. Fitzgerald en
tered the case as special prosecutor with
Mr. Malarkey. Three attorneys are now
prosecuting the case. Deputy District At
torney John Stevenson, Dan J. Malarkey
and Mr. Fitzgerald.
UEGIX THIRD TRIAli OF WALTON
Bloody Handkerchief Said to Be
Mask Is Introduced.
The third trial of Charles Walton,
the. xoung musician, charged with hold
ing up a Willamette Heights streetcar
and shooting Policeman Olaus Nelson
on the night of September 1, 1904, -was
begun in Judge Cleland's department of
the Circuit Court yesterday. The jury
wa completed during the afternoon,
and the opening statements made by
Deputy District Attorney Bert Haney
and Attorney Henry St. Raynor. Be
fore the hour for adjournment, 5
o'clock. Officer Nelson and G. A. Bing
man. the motorman who was held up,
had given their testimony.
Bingman was shown a blood-stained
white handkerchief and a dark over
coat and slouch hat. He said t"hat
Walton had a similar handkerchief
about his face, just below his nose,
and that the hat was pulled down over
his eyes, so that little could be seen
of -his face until the policeman and
others began . to grapple with him.
Bingman said that in the tussle the
handkerchief slipped down over "Wal
ton's head and was hanging about his
neck In a bloody condition when he
was received at the hospital. 'There it
was removed, together with the coat,
and his wounds dressed. Bingman
positively identified Walton as the man
who pointed- the revolver at him. He
said the weapons of Walton and the
policeman were not of the same size
and he thought at the time that Wal
ton's weapon was a ,32-callber. He
had learned since, he said, that it was
a .38-caliber Smith & Wesson. He said
he helped the officer to handcuff Wal
ton, and then remained at the scene
of the hold-up. Twenty-eighth and
Thurman streets, near the Fair
Grounds, until the patrol wagon ar
rived. Since Walton'e arrest, he said,
SOI
he had not been troubled with hold-up
men. He believes it was AValton who
once before held up his car when he
was on the Portland Heights run.
Officer Nelson's testimony was cor
roborative of Bingman's, being similar
to that given at previous trials.
The jury which is trying the case is
as follows: S. H. Davis, William Bur
rington, C. P. Bradshaw, H. Hilde
brand, C. L. Myers, J. T. Chlnnock, H.
M. Wagner, Dave Fisher, Patrick Hol
land, E. L. Aiken; George H. Keene and
A. B. Bloomer. Seventeen Jurors were
excused, as follows: W. B. Buell, O. C.
R. Ellis. G. P. Clerin. H. R. Beckwith,
C. P. Irvine. M. W. Gill, C. G. Bunte,
Calvin Shepherd, J. W. Buirgy, J. R.
Gilstrap, J. S. Day, John Fisher. H. J.
Faust, C. W. Richards, E. F. Samuel,
John Goodin, E. G. Goding. In order
to complete the jury it was necessary
for Judge Cleland to call a special
venire of ten men yesterday noon.
Walton was first tried three years
ago and convicted of both charges. At
that time, the trial being before Judge
Cleland. Walton was sentenced to
serve 25 years in the penitentiary. He
was given a new trial by the Supreme
Court because he had never entered
his plea. The jury which heard the tes
timony last week disagreed after five
hours' deliberation Saturday night. The
present, trial was begun at once be
cause a witness was brought from Cal
ifornia to testify for the state. Wal
ton has sworn his innocence, saying he
was a passenger on the car. As the
handkerchief was not introduced at the
former trial, being in the pocket of
the overcoat when it was shown the
witnesses, the accused man was not
called on to tell how he came tcr have
it about his neck after his arrest.
ARGUE IX MYERS WILL CASE
Ex-Senator Siirion Goes Carefully
Into Testimony.
The arguments In the will case of
the wealthy salmon packer and state
Senator, George T. Myers, were begun
yesterday morning before Judge Web
ster in the County Court. It is proba
ble that they will not be completed be
fore tonight or tomorrow morning,
when the Court will take the case un
der advisement. Whichever way it is
decided it will probaBly be taken to
the Supreme Court on technicalities.
Ex-Senator Joseph Simon went care
fully into the testimony of the chief
witnesses on both sides yesterday,
gathering here and there the links of
testimony which went to strengthen
the case of his client, George T. Myers,
Jr. He contended that the testimony
has shown Myers could not have been
insanely deluded, as there was ground
for his belief that Mrs. Myers was
killed through" the mal-practice of a
physician, and that he was employed at
the instance of Mrs. Georgia Frances
Stevens and Mrs. Myers against Mr.
Myers' wishes. Wrhen Mrs. Stevens re
fused to coincide with her aged father's
belief, said Senator Simon, he deeded
the bulk of his quarter-million dollar
estate to his son, cutting the daughter
oft with $20,000. This, counsel con
tended, he had a right to do, if he
chose.
The will contest was brought by Mrs.
Stevens on the ground that her father
was insane when he signed the Instru
ment. Argue St. John Injunction Friday.
Whether or not the injunction placed
upon the County Commissioners re
straining them from declaring Precinct
91, in St. John, "dry," should be re
mdved, is the question which will come
up for argument before Judge Ganten
bein in the Circuit Court Friday. The
prohibition forces will be represented In
court by Attorney A. King Wilson. The
suit was brought by Ed Magoon, a St.
John saloonkeeper.
Widow Appointed Administrator.
Elizabeth Cook was appointed yes
terday morning by the County Court,
administratrix of the estate of her hus
band. Charles E. Cook, who died May
15. He left personal property valued
at $15,000, and real estate worth $1000.
The heirs are the Svidow and Emma E.
Cook, a daughter. He left no will.

tober 7 on the charge of murdering
Pawnbroker Nathan Wolff on May 1.
The case was first set for trial July 2.
Jack La Rose, the , so-called gasplpe

CHARTER PRICE NOT GIVEN
Oregon Pine . Export Company Se
cures British Ship for Long Voy
age Steamship Bucrania and
Bark Rochambeau Taken.
The British ship Ancaios, 1704 tons,
which has been in the harbor since early
in April, was yesterday chartered to
carry a cargo of . lumber from the Co
lumbia River to Liverpool direct. This
is rather an unusual charter for it is
seldom that a lumber charter is listed
for Liverpool or the "United Kingdom.
The charter of the Ancaios was taken
by the Oregon Pine Export Company,
which concern has offices in the Com
mercial Club building. The charter rate
is not announced.

the Ancaios will have special ports cut
in either bow for the purpose of loading
her from the side. This method was
adopted when it was found that she
would be expected to accommodate some
lengthy timbers which were impossible to
take through the hatches. The work of.
cutting the ports will be commenced im
mediately, and in about one week it is
expected to have her ready to receive
her cargo.
In addition to the charter of the
Ancaios two other vessels were listed
yesterday to load at this port. The
first was the British steamship Bucrania,
listed by the Pacific Export Lumber Com
pany to load lumber here for the Orient.
The other charter was the French bark
Rochambeau, which was fixed to load
new wheat for the United Kingdom.
The Bucrania has been in the Calcutta
trade for some time, and is expected to
leave that port for the Columbia River
in the near future.
DANGER OF IXOOD ABATED
Cooler Temperature Mitigates Possi
bility of Overflow for Time Being.
Cooler weather yesterday proved ex
ceedingly welcome along the waterfront,
for a great deal of the danger of the
rapid rise of the Columbia and Willamette
Rivers seemed mitigated. ' At its present
stage the waters have not yet covered any
of the lower docks, although at the Ains-
worth structure it was said that at times
the flood seeped through the floors. How
ever, all merchandise or destructible
property has been remdved to the upper
floor, and little or no damage is expected
as the result of the rising water.
According to river men from up the Co
lumbia, there is some danger of the flood
impeding the operation of the Cascade
Locks, for at present they are being op
erated under difficulty, and with a con
tinued rise of a few more inches, may be
required to cease operation until the flood
recedes.
Acting Forecaster Lodholz announced
yesterday that lie did not anticipate a
much higher rise than at present, and
stated as his belief that the waters would
not encroach higher than 21 feet at Port
land. Its present height is 19.9, and today
the water may reach 20.5, providing that
the weather remains at its present tern
perature. '
One favorable feature of the flood at
its present stage is that a fall of six
tenths of a foot was noticeable at Riparia
and while the waters rose slightly at
other upper-river points, there was not
enough to prove alarming. Cool weather
prevailing over practically the entire Co
lumbia basin favors the checking of the
flood soon.
CEMENT SHIP ARRIVES IN PORT
Asgard, Norwegian Vessel, Brings
20,000 Barrels and Iron.
The Norwegian ship Asgard, which ar
rived at Astoria Saturday, arrived up
yesterday, 142 days from Antwerp. -She
is laden with 20,000 barrels of cement,
and in addition brings 550 pieces of steel
girders to be used in bridge structure
in the Northwest.
Captain Halvorsen, master of the ves
sel, reports having enjoyed a, fair passage
except for the encountering of a severe
gale off Cape Horn: when the Asgard
lost her lifeboats and several sails. This
vessel was formerly the British Ship
Kilmory, and was recently purchased by
a Norwegian firm which changed her
name as well as her flag.

STEAMBOAT LOSES HER STACK
Collision . 'With Burnslde Bridge
Draw Damages Columbia.
The steamer Columbia, while returning
from Vancouver yesterday afternoon, col
lided with the draw of the Burnside
bridge, and her smokestack was pushed
over, causing tne bursting of two steam
pipes. Captain Watt, who was in charge,
docked the steamer and all the passengers
went' ashore in safety. The steamer was
enveloped in escaping steam, but no one
was injured. The accident was caused
by the pilot undertaking to pass through
the bridge before the draw had swung
fully. At present the high water makes
It necessary to open the draw for prac
tically every craft and the draws of the
Steel and Burnside bridges are swinging
constantly. One day last week the draw
of the Steel bridge was opened 110 times
for the passage of boats, many of which
can pass under in an ordinary stage of
water. '
Steamer Leona Being Repaired.
The well-known upper Willamette River
steamer Leona, which formerly operated
between Portland and Oregon City, is at
present occupying the ways at Supple's
shipyard, where she is undergoing a thor
ough overhauling for the purpose of plac
ing her in first-class condition for a new
route. The craft Is owned by W. A.
Marshall and F. J. Brauer. and as yet
they have not decided on which run they
will place her. It is possible that she
will be operated between Portland and
the Tamhill River route.
Alaska Fishermen Arrive Out.
The advance guard of the Alaska fishing
fleet has arrived out, according to advices
received here yesterday. The Alaska
Portland Packers' Association received
word that the tug North King had
reached Bristol Bay on May 12 and that
the American ship Berlin arrived at the
same place on May 18. The tug will act
as tender to the canneries at that place,
while the Berlin is scheduled to carry the
season's pack of salmon to this city.
Marine Notes.
Joseph Supple is building a motor-boat
at his shipyard on the East Side, and says
that when completed she will make 25
miles an hour. The craft will be 50 feet
long and will have engines of 100-horse
power.
The steam schooner Shoshone, under
charter to the San Francisco & Portland
Steamship Company, arrived up Sunday
and commenced loading wheat at Mont
gomery dock yesterday for the return
voyage.
The North Pacific Steamship Company's
liner Roanoke arrived at Astoria at 6
o'clock last night from San Pedro and
way. She will be at Martin's dock early
this morning.
United States Inspectors Edwards and
Fuller spent yesterday inspecting the
steamship Eureka, of the Portland, Coos
Bay & Eureka route. The vessel was
found in excellent condition, only a few
secondary repairs being recommended.
The San Francisco & Portland Steam
ship Company's liner Rose City arrived
at the Ainsworth dock at 10 o'clock last
night. Captain Kidston reported tine
weather along the Coast, with but a slight
blow encountered off Cape Blanco.
Complaint has been made to the Govern
ment Inspectors of several steam launches
and pleasure craft plying on the river
Sunday night, without complying with the

Don't Wait
Men don't wait until your whole system is
polluted with disease. Don't wait until your
nervous organization Is tottering: under the
strain. Don't wait until you become a mental
and physical wreck, unfit for work, study or
social duties and obligations of life. Uncer
tain, improper or half-way treatment can only
do harm. The worst cases we have ever treat
ed were those that had been improperly treated
before coming to us, some haying been maimed

cure by restoring and preserving the important
organs. We do not advocate their mutilation or
destruction id an effort to make quick cure.
Every afflicted man owes it to himself, his
family and to future generations to get cured
safely and thoroughly.

There's no drawing the line between curable
and incurable diseases. Each individual case
must be considered. Most doctors claim that
among that class of diseases peculiar to men
one or two are incurable. This idea is wrong.
I have demonstrated that it is wrong, for I
cure all diseases of men. The truth is, that
some cases of curable diseases are incurable,
and some cases of so-called incurable diseases
are easily curable by the right methods. I by
no means claim the ability to cure any and
every case that may come to my office, but I
claim to cure most of the cases that others
cannot cure, and I always refuse treatment
where conditions indicate that I will be unablo
to obtain thorough and lasting results.

CURE IS ONLY

I Will Wait for My Fee Until I Cure You
Do you feel tired in the morning and easily exhausted? Is your back
weak? Is your memory falling? Do you have difficulty In fixing your
thoughts? Are you losing ambition? Do you feel that you are not the
man you once were? Do you have hot flushes up and down the spine
or sudden weak spells, especially after eating? Have you palpitation of
the heart? Dull headaches, pain at the base of the brain, sudden spells
like frlsht from no apparent cause? Are you very restless or sleepless
at night? Are you nervous and irritable, with a feeling that yotf want
to be alone? Are you gloomy, with a sens of some great oppression
upon you? If so, then you need my treatment.
If you have any or all of the above symptoms, you surely do not desire
to remain so. Let me explain to you my methods of rebuilding the vigor
of men and refer you to the thousands 1 have cured.
My Cure for Weakness
I not only cure "weakness" promptly, but I employ the only treatment
that can possibly cure this disorder permanently. It Is a system of local
treatment entirelv original with me, and is employed by no physician
other than myself. This mav seem a broad assertion, but it Is just as
substantial as it is broad. S-called "weakness" is but a symptom of
local Inflammation or congestion, and a radical cure is merely a matter
of restoring normal conditions throughout the organic system, and this
I accomplish thoroughly ana wnn
