MOST IMPORTANT
WITNESS MISSING
Max Drey, Whose Testimony
' Is. Needed in Martin Mur
der Case, Disappears.
TAKES FAMILY AND GOODS
Conviction of Martin of Murder ol
Pawnbroker Wolff May Be Im
possible, Since Other Evidence
Is Only Circumstantial.
. Max Drey, most Important witness
against Edward Hugh Martin, former
artillery officer charged with the bru
tal murder of Nathan Wolff, Is miss
ing Drey left Portland more than a
month ago. His absence was not dis
covered by the authorities until yes
terday. .
Lack of any measures to insure ms
appearance at the Martin trial made
It easy for Drey to get away. He took
his family and personal effects along,
saving he was going to Chicago. He
left no address and may be in Chica
go or In Europe, for all that Is defin
itely known.
W ith the Martin trial set for October
T the state was beginning to check up
on the witnesses, of whom there are
a dozen or more. District Attorney
Cameron caused subpenas to be is
sued on Thursday and asked that the
witnesses be assembled In his offices
vesterday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock.
Th Drey subpena was placed in the
hands of Patrolman Stark Lytle for
service. Lytle located the man's quar
ters in South Portland, on First street
near Sherman. But they had been va
cant several weeks. Drey s country
men. Russians, did not seem to want
to talk about the case and It was with
difficulty that the officer learned that
Chicago was supposed to be Drey's
destination.
Serious Blunder Made.
When this matter was reported to the
District Attorney's office It was real
ized at once that a serious blunder had
been made In not placing Drey under
bonds or else locking him up pending
Martin's trial. The state's case Is
greatly weakened by Drey's absence
and there Is no great likelihood that
he can be located and brought back
here.
Drey's leavetaklng gives rise to a
belief by the police that Martin's
agents are busy in his behalf. As the
son of a wealthy retired real estate
broker, of New York, It was said at
the time of Martin's arrest late last
Winter that money would not be
lacking for purposes of defense. And
If there was any one thing more dan
gerous to Martin's chances of acqultal
it was Drey's story. The police are
not slow In charging that the fellow
was bought oft, sent away for a con
sideration. He bad come to Portland
two years before and was doing well
here.
When the Martin case goes to trial
October 7 It will be with a weakened
case in consequence of this official
blunder. Drey's story was In the na
ture of direct Incriminating evidence.
The rest Is chiefly circumstantial. Th6
vicious murderer of Wolff, after shoot
ing and beating his victim with a
hatchet, robbed the body and the Wolff
pawnshop and made off covered with
blood. A few days later a blood-besmeared
shirt was found by Patrolman
Oolts on a rubbish heap in the North
End. By the laundry marks It was
traced to M. Sichel. a business man.
Slchel recalled having sold the shirt
snd three others like It to Drey, a
peddler. " Drey was found and told of
having sold the shirt to Martin. He
sold one shirt to Martin and had the
other three in his possession.
This was before Martin's arrest.
When the suspect gave himself up to
the police on learning that they had
been looking for him several days, he
was found to be cut about the fi.ce
and head. He said the marks were
from the claws of a family cat but
City Physician Zlegler said a cat could
not have caused such marks.
Other Evidence Circumstantial.
This evidence was the most direct
available, and with the array of sup
porting circumstantial evidence, was
regarded as sufficient to Insure con
viction. As the case is left with Drey's
absence the Btate will have to depend
on circumstantial evidence. Those who
followed the case are positive Martin
Is the man who murdered and robbed
Wolff. But whether It can be proved
is another matter.
Martin, awaiting trial In a cell at
the County Jail, professes to feel cer
tain that he will be acquitted. He in
sists that he is the victim of unfor
tunate circumstances and that he can
not possibly be convicted of so hid
eous a crime when he Is entirely in
nocent. One point In his favor is that
he surrendered himself to the police
on learning that he was wanted. Not
withstanding the fact that Martin was
bout the city openly for several days
Police Sergeant Baty and others who
were looking for him day and night
could not get any trace of his where
abouts. They decided he must have
left town, gave out an announcement
to that effect, named Martin as the
murderer and an hour later Martin
left a public cafe half a dozen blocks
from the police station and phoned In
to headquarters his location.
At the County-Jail Martin is an ex-
emplary prisoner. Although he was
an abject slave of morphine when he
entered the Jail he does not use the
drug any more. At the City Jail, Im
mediately after his arrest, he was
given small tablets of the drug, but
after entering the county institution
Jailer Hunter cut oft the supply alto
gether. Martin whimpered for the drug
at first, but now never asks for It.
He has gained 25 pounds since enter
ing the JaiL and has nothing the ap
pearance of a morphine fiend.

CHANGES IN LAW COURSES
w Instructors Are Also Named in
State School.
The catalogue of the Department of
f Oregon, for the
rea in.-. iln distributed tX
the secretary, Walter H. Evans. The
following changes In the courses and
the corps of Instructors and lecturers
are of especial Interest to the student
body:
Judge E. C. Bronaugh, of the Circuit
Court, will dellverthe lectures on "Do
mestic Relations." In place of the late
Judge A. L. Frazer.
Judge Robert, Morrow, also of the
Circuit Court, will deliver the course
of lectures on "Supreme Court Practice
and Brief-Making." Judge Morrow is
especially qualified to deliver this
course of lectures for the reason that
for a number of years prior to his elec

of the Circuit Court, he was Supreme
Court reporter for the State of Oregon.
The subject of "Equity" will be
taught by Richard "W. Montague. In
place of the late Judge Alfred Sears.
Mr. Montague le the compiler of Mon
tague's Digest of Oregon Reports, and
a man of eminent ability and standing
In' his profession.
As heretofore, the school will con
tinue to hold its sessions at the Court
house, which Is especially adapted for
the work, since there Is also lo
cated the Multnomah law library.
The present senior class Is the first
class to undertake the three-year
course, and the graduates from this
time forward will have the advantage
of an extra yeaff study.
DENY THEY SALTED MINE
RICHARDSON AXD SWIFT SAT
THEY WERE VICTIMIZED.
Declare They Were Only Ones Who
Invested in Project and Could
Have No Object in Deceiving.
Charges of having salted the Coal
Creek placer mines, in Clackamas County,
are vigorously denied by F. J. Richard
son and F. M. Swift, who say they were
Induced to invest money in the propo
sition by the solicitations of D. C. Forbes.
Counter charges are made by them.

folly for them to salt tne mine, iney in

for they had put their money into it and
were making no attempt to Induce others
to invest.

Richardson, yesterday, "and certainly
such charges against us are foolish. We

J. F. Jones, who lives at Scotts Mills,

A NEW BEVERAGE
Placed on the Market by the Henry
Welnhard Brewery.
Inasmuch as it is generally conceded
that beer Is not only a most excellent
drink, but that R Is and has been pre
scribed by many physicians as a positive
specific for stomach troubles. It Is but
natural that prohibition of Its use works
a hardship on many who would be greatly
benefited by Its Invigorating and sustain
ing qualities. If, therefore, H has finally
been made possible to manufacture a
non-alcoholic, and therefore non-intoxl-catlng
beer, the fact will be greatly ap
preciated. It would have been possible to place on
the market a so-called "near-beer" as
soon as the demand for such an article
made itself felt, but to bring out a beer
which would meet the most exacting re
quirements was another matter. The
Henry Weinhard Brewery has been work
ing on such a beverage for considerable
time; and while It has been besieged with
orders from all parts of the country. It
has delayed placing Its "Malt Tea" on the
market until1 now H is ready to back it
with an unqualified guarantee as to purity
and age, and to be In accordance with the
Pure Food Laws of the United States.
"Malt Tea," is brewed from select bar
ley malt and the choicest hops, and by a
thoroughly efficient Oerman method
which tt has taken time, brains and money
to carry out. During the fermentation of
this product, the natural Carbonic Acid
Gas which It develops Is gathered by ma
chinery, thoroughly purified, and stored
in compressed form in enameled steel
tanks until the beer Is aged and ripened,
and this gas Is then restored to the beer
In its natural form. While the modern
machinery especially adapted to this pur
pose is very costly, the result of this in
genious method is so gratifying that even
the layman will at once recognize the mer
its of this natural Carbonic Gas -over the
artificial artlole. The process of brewing
"Malt Tea" is in all points similar to that
of the ordinary beer, excepting that It
does not permit the existence of alcohol
to the extent of more than one-half of
one per cent; and while the absence of
alcohol does not give to "Malt Tea" the
snap which the ordinary beer drinker
looks for in the ' real article, users . of
"Malt Tea" will find it In taste as well as
in nourishment, very superior to any of
the Bo-called "soft drinks" now on the
market
"Malt Tea" receives the same careful
treatment as to aging, brewing and selec
tion of materials as all the other products
of the Henry Weinhard Brewery, and in
that respect, as well as In palatabllity,
comes up to the brewery's well-known and
well-earned standard and reputation.
"Malt Tea" will be ready for delivery on
and after Saturday, August 29, In quarts
and pints, and also in draught 04-bbls. or
7Vi-gal. kegs only).
Orders by mail or phone will receive
prompt attention.

NOVEL SERVICE PLANNED
"Old-Fashioned" Jleeting at Sunny

An "old-fashioned" service will be
held at Sunnyside Methodist Episcopal
Church tomorrow morning at 11 o clock.
Dr T B Ford, the pastor, being in
charge'. It will be conducted strictly on
the lines of the primitive church, and
promises to be most interesting. Prep
arations have been made for a large
congregation.
The people will not be met at the doors
by ushers, as Is the present-day custom,
neither will they march up the aisles
to the strain of music, as is customary
these times. They will separate Imme
diately upon entering the house of wor
ship and the men will hunt themselves
pews on one side, while the women will
go In the opposite direction and choose
seats on the other side. When the pastor
announces the hymn for the opening of
the service, no choir will arise to lend
tone to the singing, no organ will chime
in and there will be no leader for the
song; every one will be expected to
sing without any leader, as In the old
days. The service will end with the
sermon by Dr. Ford, after which there
will be 'an "old-fashioned" class meet
ing. At night Rev. W. B. Holllngshead.
superintendent of Portland district, will
preach.

Attorney plainly showed that the statute

that the Monot woman was not only pro

CORONER TD INVESTIGATE
CHARLES SCHOIiIi DIES AT HOS
PITAL FROM INJURIES.
Supposed to Have Met Accident at
Collins Hot Spring Hotel
Monday Night.
A invilalinn Into the death of
Charles Scholl, secretary of the Salem
Brewing Company, is to be made by cor
oner Norden, who is not satisfied "with
the explanation of Scholl s end, as It now
stands. The man died Wednesday at the
Good Samaritan Hospital. Death was
brought on by a night's exposure follow
ing a fall from the second story of the
Collins Springs hotel.
Scholl was brought to Portland Tues
day night. His right leg was broken In
two places. He seemed very weak from,
loss of blood and exposure. When taken
to the hospital he failed to respond to
medical and surgical treatment and. died
the next morning.
Inquiry developed the fact that Scholl
was found lying half conscious and de
lirious, outside the Collins Springs Hotel.
Tuesday morning. He was chilled
through and thoroughly wet. since there
was a fall of dew in the night. It ap
peared that he had fallen from an open
porch on the second floor of the build-
ihi Vila rnnm Wflf located. Scholl
was ar the springs, recuperating from a
heavy drinking bout.
The authorities are not able to under
stand, however. Just how a man could
fall from the second story In front of a
public inn and lie in agony all night
without attracting some one. Scholl was
not able to tell his story of the affair
after being picked up. The account as It
now stands may be true enough, but
Coroner Norden wishes to go further Into
the case. It is possible Scholl was
beaten or thrown out by some one.
Captain C. T. Belcher, proprietor of the
Springs, will be asked to coma here,
quite likely, to appear before the Coro
ner in the event an inquest la held to
day, as talked of. He cannot be com
pelled to come, however, as his place is
outside the Coroner's jurisdiction. Port
landers who were guests at the hotel at
the time will be called. V. K. Strode,
lawyer, and E. P. McCroskey, employ
ment agent, were there at the time, al
though they do not know that Scholl
met foul play.
LAST week it did not seem possible
for Oregon Crawford peaches to go
a single notch higher In appearance,
and yet a tour of the markets yesterday
revealed fruit that was larger and finer
If that could be than any shown before.
Dealers report them as coming in a little
more slowly, and those who are very wise
on the subject announce that next week
