"We Were' She Says, "Two Wrecks
Who Had Drifted .Together, and
We Clung Together Because
of Our Hopelessness."
OMAHA. Neb., Sept. 13. (Special.)
-How did It begin? God knows." was
Mrs. Rice's exclamation today when
asked to tell cf her friendship for Dr.
Rustln. In the events leading to-whose
death ahe had a conspicuous part.
"I was friendless; he was hopeless,"
she said. "Even then, the net had be
gun to close In about him. We were
two wrecks who had drifted together,
and we clung together, because of our
hopelessness. Dr. Rustln found me In
need of -a serious operation.- He took
me to the hospital and performed the
operation. It was the first time In my
life anyone had been good to me. It Is
terrible to force a girl Into a marriage
with a man she does not want. I cried
all night the night I was married. Dr.
Rustln was father and mother and sis
ter and friend to me."
Helped Doctor In Ills Work.
Mrs. Rice Is tlll In the matron's de
partment at the City Jail. She told
today how Dr. Rustln had once asked
her If she had the nerve to assist him
In an operation and she had consented.
Dr. Rustin taught her how to give an
aesthetics. She took much interest In
his operations. He took her with him
as hl nurse, and they went out of town
on rases. She learned to give the ether
and. he said she did It welL
In this strain Mrs. Rice, barely 20,
although she has seen as much of the
tragic side of life as many a woman of
40, talked for an hour. She was con
stantly In the doctor's company. They
read Eugene Field and Mark Twain;
they attended the circus together. They
talked over their sorrows and discussed
death. And now the young woman
seems to see in It all a subtle plan
leading up to the thought he had In
mind.
Police Too Lax, Says Prosecutor.
The police say they are satisfied Mrs.
Rice had no hand In the killing. Charles

When the congregation poured out of
the edifice they found that the crowd al
ready was assembling for the procession,
which had been the causa of so much con
troversy. Large forces of police were as
sisted by some 15.000 Catholics, who had
volunteered to line the route, but even
this strong army of men was unable at
timea to prevent the participants of the
parade from being shouldered by the curi
ous. Before the procession started ves
pers were sung within the cathedral, at
the. conclusion of which the prelates
passed down the nave, singing "Faith of
"Our Fathers' which was taken up by the
congregation and the vast crowd without.
Cheers Greet Procession.
As the had of the procession emerged
from the Cathedra! doors, a cheer went
up. which was repeated as cardinal

followed by the archbishops, bishops,
minor prelates of the church and a great
army of white surpliced men singing
hymns. Most of the prelates carried their
vestments over their arms, but the legate
was In full dress, his scarlet robes and
red hat lending distinction to his com
manding figure. The'hands of the Pope's
representative which were to have car

upon the people, who reverently bowed the

ANSWERS QUERIES CALMLY
Gomper9 Also Witness In Contempt
Proceedings Growing Out of
Boycott Against an East
,ern Stove Company.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 13. John Mitch
ell. ' ex-presldent of the United Mine
Workers, who, with President Gompers
and Secretary Morrison of the American
Federation of Labor, Is charged with
contempt of court In the injunction case
against the officials for boycotting the
Buck' Stove & Range Company, testified
in his own defense today before Albert
Harper, examiner. Mr. Gompers also
was pn the stand several hours.
Mr. Mitchell, although subjected to a
severe test by Daniel Davenport, of
counsel for the complainants, was calm
and collected throughout. -
Jackson H. Ralston, of counsel for the
Federation, read , from the testimony in
the original suit the statement of J. W.
Van Cleave, of the stove company, that
in three years he obtained 11.500.000 for
"educational purposes, pure and simple."
Much of Mr. Mitchell's testimony re
lated to his movem'jstg leading up to the
mineworkers" cortttlon In January last,
when a resolution was adopted placing
the stove company on the "unfair list"
and Imposing a fine of $5 on any mem
ber buying the product ' of the concern.
Mr. Mitchell said he took no part in tho
drafting of the resolution, nor did he have
any knowledge of, the subsequent distri
bution of the resolution among the 300,
000 mineworkers of the country. Mr.
Mitchell parried all questions designed to
elicit Information about the part played
by the Mineworkers' Journal In further
ance of the alleged boycott. Generally to
all questions Mr. Mitchell disclaimed any
Intent to violate the court's order.
' Samuel Gompers In his testimony charg
ed Mr. Van Cleave's course against him
as "an attempt to assassinate my char
acter." He said he did not know that the
publication of the stove company's name
In tha Federationlst was In violation of an
order which had not then become opera
tive. Mr. Gompers. said that In keeping
the name of the company on the unfair
list It was more the Intention to sup
port the affiliated bodies than to Injure
the company.
"The word 'unfair' is a notice of a dif
ference between employer and employe.
The term 'we don't patronise' is a state
ment of fact and does not affect the busi
ness of an employer," explained the
witness when asked by counsel to dif
ferentiate between the two expressions as
used in the executive council's report.
The hearing was adjourned until Thurs.
day morning at 10 o'clock to permit Mr.
Gompers to take a .train for Columbus,

is clearly defined and provided In the
articles by which each was admitted as
a state. The Oregon Supreme Court has
held that this state has Jurisdiction over
the Columbia River and can arrest and
prosecute all violators of its laws, wheth
er they be residents of Oregon or of
Washington, regardless of whether they
are fishing on the Oregon or the Wash
ington sloe of the river. With such au
thority as this, we feel that It Is our duty,
to enforce the laws as they are enacted
by the people and as we find them."
State Jurisdiction Settled.
The question of the state's Jurisdiction
In the enforcement of fishing laws has
been tested In the, courts. A few years
ago Chris Nelson was arrested by the
Master Fish Warden of this state for un
lawful fishing in the Columbia. In the
trial of the case It was stipulated that
Nelson was a resident of the State of
Washington, held a license Issued by that
state, and at the time of his arrest was
operating on the Washington side of the
river.
With these facts admitted, the case
was won by the prosecution, and Nelson
took an appeal to the Supreme Court of
this state, which affirmed the Judgment
of the trial court, holding that the state
has concurrent Jurisdiction of the river
in the enforcement of all laws relating
thereto. This case recently was ap
pealed to the United States Supreme
Court.
How La vs Clash.
For several years the Legislatures of
Oregon and Washington had worked' to
gether to the end that substantially the
same laws regulating salmon fishing in
the Columbia were enacted and enforced
In each state. Under that programme
everything proceeded with satisfactory

results and harmony prevailed. But the
bill enacted last June by the voters of
this state, practically prohibits fishing In
the Columbia at this time of year, and.
as the measure has been Interpreted, is
enforceable alike against residents of
Oregon and Washington. Under the
Washington law, fishermen of that state
are entitled to fish for salmon until next
March, when the Spring closed season
begins. Tojse made subject to arrest by
Oregon authorities when the laws of their
own state authorize them to fish Is the
feature that the Washington fishermen
object to seriously.
Legal Tangle Probable.
If an Injunction Is granted by the Fed
eral Court when the threatened suit Is
"filed by the Washington fishing interests,
the Oregon authorities will be enjoined
from enforcing further the provisions of
their fishing laws, pending the outcome
of the suit. In that event there will be
no Oregon laws in effect relating to fish
ing ljt the Columbia, and fishing can be
followed without restriction until the con
troversy over the law most recently en
acted shall be decided.
Entertained by Warden McAllister.
At the conclusion of the fishing con
ference between the Washington and
Oregon state officials yesterday. Gov
ernor Mead and the members of his
party were the guests of Master Fish
Warden McAllister, who entertained
them with a launch ride on the river.
It was singular that the boat In which
the party was entertained was one of
the craft the Oregon Fish Warden has
engaged to assist him In patrollng tha
Columbia River and enforce the fish
laws passed by the people of this state
in the June election. It was opposition
by Washington 'fishermen to the en
forcement of these laws which sug
gested yesterday's conference between
the official representatives of the two
states.

body being found by his friends on Sat
