DAVIS FULLY IDENTIFIED
LORD KECOGXIZES HIM AS SEEX
NEAR RCSTIX HOME.
Strong Link In Chain of Evidence.
Davis' Room-mate Offers
Evidence of Alibi. '
OMAHA, Sept 11. "That looks like th
man I aw coming from the Rustln home
- the night of the mtirder," said Dr. J. P.
Lord to the police, when Charles F. Davis,
under arrest charped with the murder of
Dr. Frederick T. Rustln, was brought be
fore the court this morning for arraign
ment. This wae the first time Dr. Lord
had been confronted with Davis, and his
Identification of him as the man he saw
staggering down Farnum street, coming
In the direction of the Rustln home, and
only four blocks from that point, within
a quarter of an hour of the time the shot
was fired. Is one of the strongest links
connecting Davis with the murder.
This morning Davis went to the police
station, accompanied by his millionaire
brother, to plead to the charge of being a
suspicious character, which was filed
against him some days sgo. As soon as
he entered the building he was rearrested
on a charge of murder In the first degree.
and brought before the court for arraign
ment. Standing before the bar, Davis listened
Intently to the reading of the complaint.
He was pale and collected, but continu
ally batted his eyes. As the reading pro
gressed, a red hue overspread his face
and at the words "charge the said Davis
with willful and deliberate murder," he
swallowed convulsively and wetted bis
Hps.
Immediately after the reading of the
complaint and the answer of "not guilty,"
entered by Davis' attorney, an application
was made for ball..
The hearing was set for September 24.
after which Davis was released on $7000
bail, and left -the J all, accompanied by
his two brothers and his attorney.
Frank Graham, auditor of the Omaha
National Bank, probably will be the
strongest and main witness for the Davis
brothers in establishing an alibi for
Charles Davis. - Mr. Graham lives at the
Chatham, where Davis lives, and occu
pies an adjoining room to that of Davis.
On the night of the Rustin murder. Mr.
Graham says he was awakened by some
one vomiting in Davis room. He got up
and looked at his watch. It was just S
o'clock, he says.-
The shooting occurred about 8 o'clock.
Davis" room Is two miles from the Rus
tln home.

DAHQ YIELDS RICH ORES
J. FRANK WATSON DESCRIBES
MINING TOTJR.
Portland Men Interested in Many
Properties From Which Excel
lent Results Are Obtained.
Loud In his praise of the wealth and
future possibilities of the Oro Flno min
ing region in Idaho, ' J. Frank Watson,
president of the Merchants National
Bank, returned to Portland yesterday
after spending a week among the many
rich properties of this district. He has
come home thoroughly convinced that the
gold output from the Idaho mines that he
vlBited Is to be enormous, and that It will
be especially beneficial to Lewlston. to
which city the district is tributary. -
Mr. Watson was accompanied by his
15-year-old son and . M. Corbus, of Spo
kane, and made the trip for the two-fold
purpose of Inspecting the mining prop
erties and enjoying an outing. In both he
was successful and declares that he has
never done a rougher bit of mountaineer
ing in his life than the trip from Stltes,
the railway terminus to the Oregon Plain,
on which is located the Oregon mine of
which Mr. Corbus Is the largest Individual
owner, and In whlcn several romana
citizens are interested.
From Stltes, Mr. Watson and his com
panions drove 60 miles over a rough
mountain road and then traveled 16 miles
on horseback over trails that a wagon
cannot take. The trail in many places
wound up such steep Inclines that it was
with dlfliculty tho riders clung to their
horses, and they were thankful when
their destination was reached.
"But what we learned of the Idaho gold
mines was well worth the trip," said Mr.
Watson yesterday. 'The Oregon mine and
the Oro Grande, which Is only four miles
distant, are among the best properties I
have ever seen and there are many other
fine mines in the same district, which cov
ers a large area. After the wild country
traversed, the Oregon plain seemed as
level as a floor. It is 6100 feet in eleva
tion and a richer mineral region it would
be hard to imagine.
"The Oregon mine, in which several
Portlanders are Interested, was a revela
tion to me. I have visited many gold dis
tricts, but have never before seen any
thing to equal it. There are several
ledges, one of them 70 feet wide, and' a
large amount ef the ore is of exceedingly
high grade. One vein has averaged $70
to the ton and in certain places the as
says have run even into the thousands.
"They have heen working on the Ore-,
gon mine for five years and are only now
in a position to go ahead and Install a
mill to handle the ore. The reason for
this is that the mine has been exceedingly
hard to work. The veins do not crop up
and It has been difficult to follow them.
Now, however, the property is ready to
develop. A tunnel has been driven for
1000 feet at a depth of 230 feet A mill
will be put In next year and there is ore
in sight for 100 stamps.
"This great district is Just coming into
Its own, although it has been worked for
many years by placer mining. The reason
that claims have not been worked before
by mills is the extreme inaccessibility of
the region. Freight must be carried in
from Stltes on pack horses at a cost of
about four cents a pound. The Buster
Smith mine, near Elk City, 16 miles from
the Oregon, Is reported to be taking out
$30,000 a-month, and all the properties that
are being worked, are paying well. I also
visited the Oro Grande mine, where ISO
tons of ore are being taken out each day,
averaging about $5 a ton."
Mr. Watson is of the opinion that the
development of this great mining re
gion will result in the rapid growth of
Lewiston. This city, he reports. Is now
gaining quickly in business and is re
ceiving the grain crop of the surrounding
agricultural district
Studies Whales of Paclfio.
NEW YORK, Sept IL Roy C. An
drews, of the department of mammals
and birds, .of the American Museum of
Natural History, has returned from a
five months trip to Vancouver Island,
where he remained until July, and then
went to Tyee, Alaska, on the south end
of Admiralty Island. His work was get
ting measurements, notes and photo
graphs of the Pacific whales, to discover
whether they are the same as in the
Atlantic. He saw more than 200 whales
of different species killed with a harpoon
gun.
