THE MOIOfrSG OREGOXIA FHIDAT, JTTLT 24, T908. DOCTOR IS ACCUSED Coroner's Jury Lays Death of Girl at Courtney's Door. HE-WILL BE PROSECUTED Mast Answer for Having Performed Criminal Operations That Caused 16-Year-Old Stella Bennett's Death Is in Indianapolis. Dr. J. S. Courtney, a prominent physi cian accused of having caused the death of IS -year-old Stella Bennett through a criminal operation, must face a charge of manslaughter. The death of the girl was formally, laid at his door by a Coroner's Jury yesterday, and it was Immediately announced by the District Attorney's of fice that the offender will be prosecuted to the extent of the law. Dr. Courtney Is now believed to be in Indianapolis in attendance on the annual convention of the Ancient Order of Hi bernians. It may be decided to telegraph the authorities there to cause his imme diate arrest. The horrible details of the affair were brought out at the Inquest conducted by Coroner Norden at the Holman under taking establishment yesterday. Al . though the testimony showed that Dr. Andrew C. Smith took the case when the girl was In a dying condition and tried to save her life after other physicians had declined to do anything for the girl, his part was clearly creditable and com mendable. While declining to meddle in the case at ' the child's home. 869 Gllsan street. Dr. Smith ordered her removal to St. Vincent's Hospital, where he recorded openly the. exact nature of her ailment. There wag little or no hope for her at this time.--however, and death followed. Septicemia, following malpractice In a criminal operation, was the cause of death assigned to the Jury by Dr. N. W. Jones, who made ' a post-mortem examination of the body. Following his definition of of the cause of death, important evidence was given by Miss Lillian Bennett, sister of the victim, who went with her to have the operation performed. Louis Bowen, the young express mes senger responsible for the girl's down fall, was called before the Jury and he freely admitted his part, saying he of fered to mitigate the wrong he had done by marrying the girl, but that she spumed his offers. In this he was sub stantiated by the sister. He will be prosecuted for a statutory offense, a charge having . been filed by the victim's father, W. P. Bennett, a mining man. The sister testified that Stella con stantly threatened to' kill herself unless an operation was arranged for and it was for that reason she accompanied the victim to the doctor's office. When the first operation was performed the child was only 14, attaining to her 15th birth day a few day later. Following a sec ond operation, the girl's condition be came serious. . Other doctors were called, but they refused to meddle, and then, the father arriving, sent for Dr. Smith, who took the child to the hospital, but too late to save her. The Jury in the case lost little time in reaching a verdict. The verdict as signed septicemia as the cause of death and assigned the responsibility to Court ney. In the absence of the accused man, friends secured, counsel for him in John H. Stevenson. Bowen was represented by A. Walter Wolfe, while the state's interests were looked after by Deputy District Attorneys Fitsgerald and Vree land, ECHO OF LAND FRAUDS Innocent Purchaser Sues Oregon Op erator for $80,000 Damages.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 23. Passengers arriving here today from Central Ameri can ports on the steamer Newport, report that a state of anarchy exists in Guate mala. Murder is of frequent occurrence, they say. and many persons are fleeing the country. At San Jose de Guatemala a number of panic-stricken people were taken on board, the Newport and later landed at Salina Crui in Mexico.

Conditions in Hon duras and Nicaragua are also greatly un settled, and it Is believed that war is im minent there. Rebel Hold Nearly All Ports. SAN SALVADOR, July 23. In view of the fact that the northern coast o Honduras Is occupied by the rebels, Amapalo Is the only port left to Presi dent Davlla. There Is reason to believe that President Cabrera of Guatemala is ill supporting the Honduras revo lutionists. Honduras called upon Salvador to keep an eye upon the activities of the Insurgents along the frontier. Salvador replied that she had captured many rebel refugees and would continue to follow a proper course In this regard. Various Honduran revolutionists, soma of them more or less prominent lead ers, have been taken Into custody within the last few days In Salvadorlan territory. May Bnrn Oil on Destroyers.

Costa Rica, to prevent wars. We await the court's disposition and sentence. The revolution in Honduras has nearly ended. I have no knowledge of the declaration of any war." Will Not Fight Nicaragua.

The troops expect to recapture the town tomorrow. RACE WAR IN LOUISIANA Americans and Foreigners at Outs in Lumber Town. NAT ALB ANY. La., July 23. Daylight today found this town divided into two armed camps, with race hatred strained to a dangerous pitch. During the night preparations were made for a race war of threatening proportions, but the passage of the night without actual fighting Is believed to have averted further danger. One of the hostile camps consisted of Italians and other foreigners, gathered beside blazing fires on the outskirts of the town, and said to number, including: their wives and children, about 600 persons. All day yesterday these foreigners gathered in camp, after moving out of their homes here and In the vicinity, in the fear of reprisals by Americans for the wound ing of Walter Simmons on Tuesday and subsequent shooting by Americans and Italians yesterday. " Some of the foreigners claimed to have been warned to leave this section of the country. The opposing camp was made up of about 75 residents of Natalbany, under command of Sheriff Saal. Early last night an Italian came Into town and said that the men at his countrymen's camp intended to attack and wipe out the town before morning. The Sheriff sent out scouts, picketed the town and ordered every available man to be ready to fight. At Intervals the scouts approached the foreigners' campflres and reported that excited men were holding continuous debate. Natalbany is a lumber mill town, and the race trouble is In part the out growth of the rough spirit rampant among mill employes, such as has In the laBt year resulted In exodus of foreigners from the lumber communi ties in other parts of the state. SIEMSEN LOSES HIS NERVE Gaspipe Thug Gives Way to Fear . of Death. SAN FRANCISCO. July 23. It is re ported from the state prison at San Quentln that John Siemsen, who, with Louis Dabner, is to be executed on July 31 for the murder of M. Murakata, a Jap anese banker .of this city, is showing signs of breaking down as the hour for the expiation of his crime approaches. He is a hardened criminal, having served former terms in prison, while Dab ner Is a youth from the country, who has not before been in trouble, and who was expected By the prison officials to be the first to show signs of weakness. To their surprise, be is holding up bravely, while Siemsen appears to be a victim of cow ardice amounting almost to terror. It is now feared that unless his present condi tion improves he may collapse before the scaffold is reached. Siemsen and Dabher are known as the gaspipe thugs, from a number of as saults committed by them with pieces of pipe or other blunt weapons, in this city two years ago. The "death watch" will be placed on the men tomorrow. STARVING 0NRED RIVER Flood Sufferers Are Forced to Eat Raw Fodder. LAKE CHARLES, La July 23.

' TEN ACRES OF THIS RICH RIVER BOTTOM LAND, IN THE CENTER OF OREGON'S FAMOUS FRUIT BELT, WILL MAKE YOU INDEPENDENT FOR LIFE. Our plan of development with small fruits and vegetables, -while the fruit trees are reaching a bearing ' age, means that your income begins at once an income next year equal to the cost of the tract, and only a very small investment necessary. - ' ... Delightful climate, richest soil, schools, churches, social life, and good income, all combined. You can work eight months and then indulge your desire to travel, or rest, or spend the remainder of the year as you wish, : , ', No man controls your every hour, nor limits your income; and np financial panics can-have any terrors for you when you are reaping ihe harvest of the soil. ; ' . The fruitgrower of Oregon is a man that is absolutely independent. He knows that a 10-acre orchard, when properly cared for, will bring him a certain income of $5000- a year. Do you want to get in this class f Our tracts are all cleared, ready to plant; no stumps to pull, no preliminary work, no irrigation necessary, and you can make each tract pay for itself. We want you to meet the man who bought a half interest in a 20-acre orchard near our tracts last year for $2750 built a dryer costing $500 bought a team for $300 paid a Koseburg bank 8 per cent interest on the money to do it with, and within the year cancelled his debt at the bank of over $4000, and had a neat balance left this profit was one-half of the amount cleared on the tract. THIS OPPORTUNITY IS YOURS COME IN AND LET US POINT THE WAY. If you are not ready to live upon a tract -of this land, we will raise straw berries, raspberries, currants, cantaloupes, melons, potatoes, onions, aspara gus, celery, etc., on your tract, put up the money for seed and labor, market theV produce, and at the end of the season pay you one-half of the net profits. If we didn't absolutely know that this proposition would pay us, we wouldn't put our money in it, and you are going to make a dollar every time we do. "We can put small fruits and vegetables on the market two weeks earlier than any other, section in Oregon, AND WE ARE GOING TO DO IT NEXT YEAR. We have an orchardist and farmer of 20 years' experi .ence.who will superintend this work, and a' member of this firm will give his personal attention to the property. The soil is of great depth, and devel opment between the rows does not affect the prosperity of the trees. Experi ment has shown this to be true. One-half the profits of this development ' plan will pay for your tract in two years, set it to orchard and put money in the bank for you. You will then have an orchard tract worth, in the open market, twice the purchase price. We are NOT GUESSING at what we can do here, but this plan is the result of careful study extending over a period of many months. If you want to join this successful fruitgrowing plan, come in and talk it over with us before this tract is sold. Do it now. PRICE Terms, $150 cash, balance $25 a month. Our devel opment plan will take care of the payments after next Spring, when the crop is marketed. HARDING & ENGEN FRUIT LAND SPECIALISTS BETTER THAX ANT IJfSrRANCE ON EARTH.

HOT RACE WITH PURSUERS Saloon-Robbers Driven to Bay After Brief Career1 One Is in Jail and Third Slipped Through Police Cordon. BOSTON. July 23. After three deadly battles between three desperadoes, the police and a small army of citizens, the first encounter being late Tuesday night in a barroom, the second last evening In the peaceful streets of Jamaica Plains, and the third early today In the quiet of Forest Hill Cemetery, one of the ban dits was riddled with a hundred bullets and killed, a second, believed to be wounded, being sought still, while a third was taken last evening in the south station. The desperadoes left behind them over their trail of a mile and a half two dead and 11 wounded. All the desperadoes are believed to be foreigners. The man captured Is believed to be Giuseppe Devico. He is charged with murder, having been identified by- four men as one of the three who "shot up" the saloon Tuesday night. Herbert K. Knox, the watchman, who had been on the lookout for the men. A INCOME $1 50 PEE ACRE 2 O 4 ROTHCHILD BUILDING Fourth and Washington Streets PHONE 5465 came upon one of, them unexpectedly, and before he was able to use his pis tol, was shot through the abdomen. Knox died three hours later. About daybreak the officers who had been guarding the cemetery to prevent the outlaws' escape were given the or der to advance toward the center of the cemetery. Scarcely a quarter of an hour later a man sprang up In front of the officers at the south side of the cemetery and started off on a run. The man was barefooted, a broken derby covered his head, a torn and ragged coat was on his back and in one hand he carried a heavy revolver, while from the other dangled a roll of cartridges. For more, than a mile across the cemetery the man raced madly over graves, around shrubbery, through gul lies and over mounds, an ever-Increasing crowd of policemen following in his wake. All at once he disappeared in a ravine not 200 yards from the main Morton-street entrance to the cemetery grounds. But one bit of shrubbery marked the lower level of the ravine, and into this the man sprang to make his final stand. In a moment the sides of the ravine were lined with bluecoats, revolvers were brought to bear upon the bush In the gully and shot after shot was poured into it. Riddled by 100 Bullet. When the rain of shot was over, of ficers approached the bush and, parting the leaves, found the desperado's body pierced by a hundred bullets. Almost at the same time another commotion was created on the opposite side of the main gate within the con fines of the cemetery and a man who had refused to throw up his hands had been seized and disarmed. Both the dead body and the captive were taken to the Jamaica Plains station.. Some doubt arising, however, as to the identity of the captured man, offi cers were again marched back into the cemetery to continue the search. At I A. M. the police were tracing large splashes of blood in the cemetery in the hope of locating the third bandit.' A thorough search of Forest Hill Cem etery during the forenoon indicated that MAKE QNB PAYMENT THE LASD WILL DO' THE REST. TEN ACRES WILL TREAT YOU BETTER THAN ANY S3O00.OQ ; SALARY.
