THE MORNING OREGONIAN, THURSDAY, JUNE 18, 1905. STATE'S WITNESS GANNDT BE FOUND Lee Hong's Testimony Wanted in the Murder Trial of Lem Woon. KIDNAPED OR A FUGITIVE Was to Have Acted Also as Inter preter Frightened Chinese Mer chants Taken to Court to Be fsed as Interpreters. That Lee Hong, one o the state's chief witnesses in the trial of Lent Woon for the murder of Lee Dai Hoy, which is in progress in Judge Bronaugh's de partment of the Circuit Court, has been kidnaped and deported from the city, or has fled in fear of his life, is the belief of state's counsel. When Lee was called for In court yesterday he did not re spond. As he was to act as interpreter, it was necessary for the court to order an adjournment until an interpreter could bo secured. In place of the absent Lee Hong the defense offered Sam Ah Tye, its San Ktanciseo expert. Counsel for the state objected, and subpenas were issued for more than a half dozen local Chinese who understand English. The Sheriff had a hard time in getting one of them to serve. Seid Back, Jr.. of the United States Immigration Bureau, preferred not to take part in the case. At last Aloy Him was secured and sworn in. The Sheriff also had subpenas for five members of the Lee family Lee You, Lee Yee, Leo Linn, Lee Lung and Lee Ben. They appeared much frightened when told they must go to court. Lee Lou and Lee Yee refusing point blank to leave their store at 129 Second street. When told they would 'be handcuffed and taken by force, they locked the 6tore, but on the way one of them tried to es cape by sprinting and was recaptured by Deputy Sheriff Leonard. Lee Ben shiwed his contempt for the entire affair by crumpling the ubpena and hurling it to the floor. He then took to his heels, but was captured. The five Chinese were marched to the Courthouse under guard of Sheriff Stevens and Deputies Leonard. Constable and Huckabey. They wore closely questioned by At torney Malarkey, for the state, regard ing the disappearance of Lee Hong, ami said that he is now in Walla Walla, where he went last Friday when the murder trial began. The five Lees said they would send for him. Says Witnesses Are Intimidated. Mr. Malarkey made the statement yesterday that the Chinese witnesses were so badly Intimidated by threats of death that they were afraid for their lives if they testified in the case. He said, further, that an attempt was made to burn down the house of the widow at Fourth and Pine streets, the old Arlington clubhouse, where the murder oeirred. The trial yesterday was dramatic in the extreme. Mrs. Lee Dai Hoy, the murdered man's widow, whose maiden name was Chan Gun Yoek, made an excellent witness for the state. After telling that she was born In San Fran cisco and that she is 35 years old. she was shown the marriage certificate with the pictures of her husband and herself. Between her sobs she identi fied them. She was then asked re garding the murder and described it in detail. A hush fell over the room as she was . asked to point out the mur derer, U he was in the room. Taking a yardstick she walked over to the table where Lem Woon sat and pointed at him. As she did so she broke into hysterical weeping, and almost fell to the floor In a swoon. She was assisted to her seat, and an adjournment of court ordered for five minutes. Lem only smiled at Deputy Sheriff Beatty when he was identified. He continued complacently to chew a quid of gum, which was his companion throughout the day. Mrs. Lee said that she saw standing on the stair landing with Lem Woon two other men whom she did not know. She said she knew Lem Woon, as he came here with her husband. City Physician Fred J. Ziegler said yes terday morning that Lee was shot six times. Three wounds were in the left side, one bullet wound was in the back, this bullet afterward being found in the clothing, one was in the right elbow, and one between the left wrist and the elbow. Besides this, he had a wound on his nose and head, apparently the result of a fall. He said Lee's mind was clear when he was at the hospital, and that he was conscious of events which transpired about him. The bullets found in the body were of 3S-caliber, he said. Witness' Answer Raises Laugh. Lee Shue was called to tell what he saw of the murderers, as he wa3 an oc cupant of the building at- the time of the crime. He created considerable mer riment when asked by Attorney Malar key. "Can you speak English?" With out waiting for the interpreter he an swered "No." He said he had been in America 30 years. Detectives Tom Kay and B. F. Smith, and Officer Wandless, testitied to rinding the murdered man a few minutes after the shooting, and Mr. Kay said Lee told him that Lem Wood did the shooting. Officer Kienlen corroborated the testi mony of other witnesses. Gow Ying Yuen was on Fourth street when he heard the shots and saw two men rush from the Fourth street en trance to the yard, south on Fourth to Oak, and West on Oak. He was posi tive that these two were Lem Wood and Yee Gueng. his co-defendant. He was asked whether he belonged to the new faction or the old faction of the Bow On Tong. and said he did not know of any factions. He said he was employed by the Combined Fishery, and that Lem On was his paymaster. Unsuccessful in securing admittance to the Chinese lodging house at 91 Second street Tuesday night the Jury went again last night to view the premises. Testi mony regarding the capture of Lem Woon and Yee Gueng will be received today. STUDENT PLAY AT HEILIG Christian Brothers Will Give "The Forest Bell" Friday. The students of the Christian Brothers' College have a surprise in store for their parents and friends at the Hellig Thea ter next Friday night. These boys al ways draw a crowd, as they present a splendid programme. Judging from the eale of tickets so far, an immense crowd will be on hand to hear the boys in Schlndler's dramatic operetta, "The For est Bell." Besides the operetta, a prelude of seven numbers will be presented. This will incude three choruses by over 100 voices, an extract. "The American Sail or," by Edwin J. Kenetick: "The Quarrel Scene" of Brutus and Cassius, by Jerome C. Hurley and Francis P. McGinty; violin solo by Robert B. Driseoll, and a concert recitation by the commercial class. John T. Driseoll is the leading char acter in the "Forest Bell.' Joseph P. Hurley, as Karl Krag, has also a lead ing part. Robert Driseoll, George Kelly, Aloysius Hyland, John Jennings, Basil Ray and Roger MulUoon also carry their parts well. The entire proceeds of the entertain ment this year will be devoted to the building fund of the Christian Brothers Business College, now in course of con struction on the East Side. The mem bers of the Alumni Association have ex pressed their intention of attending in a body. A section containing over 300 seats has been reserved for them. These seats will only be held reserved until 8 o'clock Friday evening. All the seats in the house have .been reserved. The boxes are for the clergy only. At the close of the programme the certificates and hon orable mentions will be awarded. His Grace Alexander Christie Is to make an address. FESTIVAL LATER IN PLAN S BEGUN" FOR NEXT YEAR'S ROSE CEIiEBRATIOX. Executive Committee Holds Meeting and Preliminary Discussion of Plans. At the first meeting of the executive committee of the Rose Festival since the big floral event that began June 1, plans for next year's celebration were begun. It was also decided to hold next year's festival a week later than the one this year. Plans for next year's festival are on even a more gigantic scale than the one just closed. The committee decided that the festival is to be an annual event in Portland and the members are confident that in the course of a few years it will not only rival, but surpass, in mag nitude and' magnificence the famous Mardi Gras carnival of New Orleans. An interesting and important feature in connection with the event that was decided upon last night was a series of international automobile races. These events will undoubtedly attract the at tention of automobilists of the entire world and sufficient inducements in the way of prizes will be offered. The races will be held on the course that was used this year and there will also be races at the Country Club. Another feature to which a great deal more attention will be devoted is that of decorations and illuminations. The com mittee will make special efforts to see that the illuminative and decorative feat ures next year far surpass those of this year. At last night's meeting details of the entire festival were investigated and re ports from all the committees received. At the conclusion of the meeting it was an nounced that there will be a small sum of money with which to begin the work for next year when vall the subscrip tions have been paid. "Honk" Wedding Procession. "Tommy" Bradshaw, a chauffeur who owns his car and has a stand at Sixth and Washington streets, was married yesterday evening to Miss Vera Stein egger. After the marriage ceremony the couple, on their way to the Union Station In their automobile, met with an unexpected reception on Sixth street about 11:30 o'clock. The car was stopped by some of Bradshaw's friends and when released had a placard on Its back on which was printed :"We have just been married and are on our honey moon trip." The autos on duty then formed in line behind the wedding party and serenaded them with "honks" all the way down to the station. IMPROMPTU EXHIBITS OF FINE ROSES June Shows With No Prize3 at the Chamber of Commerce Building Frederick V, Holman's Display BY N. J. LEVINSON. The lobby of the Chamber of Com merce building main floor, entrances on Third, Fourth and Stark streets, no charge at the doors was the situs of a Portland rose show yesterday. It is such an exhibit that when a long-distance visitor, familiar with this flower, sees It, he will confirm our title to Rose City. All of the blooms are from the garden of Frederick V. Hol xnan, corner Lownsdale and Taylor streets. A multitude of men and wo men saw the display, many of them. anxious seekers for more light on the cultivation of roses. It will be open today also. I Intend to waste no time praising Mr. Holman's products. There they are. Behold them and judge for your self. Still, as one who in common with the rest of mankind, has a genuine af fection for the queen of the floral king dom, a little experience in growing her and an average amount of civic pride, I wish to say that what Mr. Holman has done can be duplicated, perhaps ex celled, within two years, by anyone in Western Oregon who has half a city lot accessible to the sun. The requisites are our natural loam fertilized with rotted cow manure, planting bushes bought from some reliable florist, a lltle drainage fpr the deep roots, judi cious pruning, occasional spraying and always disbudding. Nature will do the rest. If anyone suspects that I am trying to "make things easier" than they really are, let him ask Mr. Holman, or ex-Sheriff W. A. Storey, or Dr. A. C. Pan ton, or H. M. Grant, or Robert Schmalz and half a dozen other occu pants of the Chamber of Commerce building, who have brought hundreds of roses' from their gardens for im promptu exhibition there. This thing has been going on for nearly two weeks spontaneously. It is a very happy idea to bring these choice blooms Into the very heart of Portland's trade place. Storey, who is an enthusiastic and suc cessful grower, pioneered it- Likely it will develop into an annual June custom. For it is to be remembered that these good folk don't go to all this trouble for self-glory, but to encourage every body to do precisely what they have done, namely: to add to their own pleasure in life, to beautify their homos, thus adding beauty to Portland and. to spread its fame over the world. And the interested citizens who take down names of roses, old and new, that please their fancy, are not the sort rich enough to own automobiles, but mostly those whose income is between a thou sand and two thousand a year. You see an expressman touching elbows with a richly-gowned woman as they stand gazing In admiration, each with pencil and paper in hand and resolu tion in the heart to grow fine roses. ' These personal. Impromptu exhibits are very valuable to the amateur rose grower. To know a rose, you must see it. No voluble florist and no catalogue can present it half adequately: colored inks, however skilfully employed to represent a rose, make mighty poor JURY GOES TO BED No Agreement in Sight in Wal ton Case. PRESENT TRIAL IS THIRD Defendant Had Served Three Years of Sentence for Holding Up Car When New Trial Was Ordered. The jury in the Charles Walton hold up case, which has been on trial this week in Judge Cleland's department, re tired for deliberation yesterday after noon at 4:25. Up to a late hour last night a verdict had not been agreed on, and since word came from the Jury-room that the Jurors had gone to bed, a dis agreement would not be a surprise. As this is the third time the case has been tried, however, Judge Cleland will prob ably not discharge the Jurors while there is hope of agreement. There will be no hope of a verdict before this morning. Walton was convicted three years ago of holding up a Willamette Heights streetcar at the fair grounds in Septem ber. 1904, and was sentenced by Judge Cleland to serve 20 years In the Peniten tiary. On the charge of shooting Patrol man Nelson, who was on the car, he was also convicted, and was sentenced to serve five years. The case was taken to the Supreme Court, and after he had served three years of his term, Walton was brought back to be retried. The new trial was granted by the Supreme Court because Walton had not been given a chance to enter a plea when first brought before the bar. The second trial on the shooting charge was heard last week. Late last Satur day night the jury was discharged by the court because it could not agree on a verdict. The Jurymen stood six for conviction and six for acquittal, une trial Just concluded Is the third on the one charge, while the charge of holding ui the car remains to be tried, it is barely possible that Walton will plead guilty to the second change and trust to the court's leniency. Should he not do so. he will be compelled to recount his story of the case for the fourth time. Attornev St. Rayner. Walton's counsel waxed eloquent in his argument before the Jury yesterday afternoon, appealing with a show of great emotion to their sympathies for the "baby boy. who should be given into mother's arms that she may. nourish and protect him." He portrayed how the accused man might, If released, become the "grandest little eenius of music on the Coast." Said the attorney. "When sympathy leaves the human heart, what is left? Rob it of sympathy, and the man Is a savage. This boy has suffered the tortures or wades for the last four years." Deputy District Attorneys Haney and Adams, for the state, pointed out to the jurors the fallacies of Walton's testi mony. Mr. Haney asked the 12 men it they would believe the testimony of the accused, even though he were !r boy. when it flatly contradicted that of at least five honest men. He pointed out that it was not possible that all of them could be mistaken. They had testified for the state that when Walton was searched after his arrest $2.80 was found in his pockets. Walton's story was that he had only IB cents. The police records corroborated the testimony of the state's witnesses. Haney pointed out that the witnesses had testified that Walton was never out of their hands from the time he shot Nelson until he was put In a ward at the hospital. Yet Walton contended that an- counterfeits. In today's exhibit there are many delicate shades that man can not imitate; but any man or woman in Portland with Just a little industry just a little care and Just a little ex penditure of money, may duplicate any rose that his neighbor grows, and if special effort Is put forth in the matter of soil and cultivation, surpass it. In rose-growing, the rain and the sun shine play no favorites. m m m It seems that universal interest cen ters in the comparatively new teas and hybrid teas of such exquisite form and color that no growing thing is com parable with them in beauty. You must see them. The name and a written de scription mean nothing. Still, there are magnificent specimens of what my friend, Major Willhfm Barnhart, is pleased to call "coarse" roses; the Car oline Testout, the Ulrich Brunner, the Kaiserln Augusta Victoria, the Frau Karl Druschki and their near kin. I consider it small achievement to grow perfect blooms in this class. It takes very little more pains and involves lit tle more skill than raising hollyhocks and cabbages.

Cold nights late in May chilled their blood. One or two frosts killed not only the buds but the foliage of certain deli cate climbers. Last Saturday's and Sun day's sun had a partly withering effect, and everyone knows how this week's cold rains have pelted the fully expanded blooms. Nevertheless the exhibit I am talking about includes 60 or 60 roses that can't be matched anywhere in the world. And these are but specimens of millions whose varieties you can see today all the way from Mt. Tabor to Willamette Heights, and from Scllwood to St. John. By way of history, it is proper, if not, indeed, important, to record that Mr. Holman first named Portland the Rose City and has done more than one man's share to maintain it. The very large and widespread interest shown In the several Chamber of Commerce exhibits he takes as part of his reward. other man did the hold-up job Just as Walton boarded the car. In rebuttal the state called D. A. Grout, assistant superintendent of schools in the city. It was planned to show by his testimony that Walton swore falsely at this trial regarding his age. He had said that he was 17 years old at the time of the hold-up. Grout's testimony was ex cluded on . the ground that he did not make the entry In the school record himself. AUTOMOBILE HITS BUGGY Carriage Struck by Touring-Car on St. Helens Road Dragged 40 Feet. Serious and perhaps fatal injuries were narrowly averted in a collision between an automobile and a buggy at 9 o'clock last night on the St. Helens road, near Smith's dairy. There is a curve in the road at that place, but it is used as a speedway ' for auto mobiles, both coming and going from the city. The buggy was being driven by a man out of the city, while the big tour ing car, with four occupants, was going in an opposite direction. The car was running at a violent rate of speed, and as it turned the curve the buggy and machine collided. So rapidly was the car driving that the horse and buggy were dragged for a distance of more than 40 feet before the driver could bring the huge car to a stop. The occupant of the buggy was hurled from his seat into a ditch, and suffered painful though not serious in juries. None of the occupants of the car was injured, although the machine Itself was so badly damaged that a car from the city was sent to tow it to a gar age. The names of the occupants were not learned, and the lone driver of the buggy failed to disclose his identity. However, he vowed vengeance on the driver of the car. At this particular spot there are said to have been more accidents than at any other place in the county, or, in deed, in the state. Though it is in the city limits, near the fair grounds. It is a speedway for automobiles and the sharp curve aids rather than prevents collisions. Ten accidents of serious na ture are known to have occurred at tho curve within the past seven man Mis. In none of the accidents, how over, has there been a fatality. Amusements Wba the Press Areata Bay. "Tlx Swindler" a Big- Success.

The comedians work steadily and the chorus girls, in their military uniforms are natty and good looking. COMING ATTRACTIONS. "The Henrietta." The Baker Stock Company is evidently keeping up its great record for plays to the very end of the season. Next week .Stuart Robson and W. H.

An attraction which will certainly create a great deal of discussion next week will be "A Gentleman Convict" as presented at the Lyric by the Blunkall-Atwood Stock Com pany.
