V Jl I I I . . i i I POLICE LAND THUGS Three Accused of Numerous Recent Hold-Ups. VICTIMS SURE OF IDENTITY Merle rl Itrcognlird Man Who lleli! I'p Husfby Saloon and suwcted of Killing Pa trolman Young. Mrrle West, a highwayman undT pa rol: Kdward Christopher, who follows tli ssme rallins. and Bub 9tuar(. alias Koy Tugh. rr caught In the police drarnet yrstrnloy and are now oocupyli.R erila at the City Jail with vanoua thar('i of htxhway robbery, poatofflce rohbery and almllar Crimea hanging oer them. West has been positively Identified by six. In.-ludltMt the proprietor of the saloon t Hawthorne avenue, which was held up on Saturday right. October 3. aa the nian who entered that place and rlned the till, aa well aa the pockela of the pat rons, at the point of a revolver. To make the case aKaitft West more con clusive, the police lined him up with live other prisoner of about the mim build aaainst the walls of the station office. He then requested Krick Huarby. propri etor of the aaloftn. and W. H. Butts. A. V. Butts. Tom Smith and red Kil melr. the patrons of the place who fell victim to tlie highwayman, to pick out the man who held them up. Without hrsltatlon all five men pointed to West. laV Shown to Vlcttnts. To make the Identification positive. Petecttve Coleman, one of the officers who arrete! West and the others, pro duced a black ailk handkerchief that had been severed In half and the tnis sewed tojrether to make a scarf, which the high wayman wore about the lower part of his face Each of the victims rrcognlied this aa the same kind of a mask worn by the man who had held them up. West nickel-plated revolver was also identified a the same kind of weapon carried by the highwayman. Detective Coleman found both weapon and handkerchief In the room occupied by West and another man. whose record la being investigated he the police The capture of Vi and his subse quent Identification Is regarded as one of the best haul the police have made In soma time. In addition to the robberies he la believed to have perpetrated. It la also possible, the police say. that he tuMj hav Duirdered Fatrolman Sam S. Young-, at Sellwood. several weeks ago. The police are practically unanimous in their belief that Wert, if he did not him self murder the veteran policeman, can shed some light on that affair. He Is known to be. perfectly familiar with Sell wood and vicinity, and la said to have been mixed In. shady transactions in that section of the city on previous occasions. West stoutly denies any connection whatever with the death of Patrolman Tounir. and is equally emphatic In his denial of being the Bast Side highway man aa welL When he was positively iden tified by the victims, however, and after wards confronted by the weapon and handkerchief, he was not ao braxen In answering questions, but stiU maintained a denial. Wwl Now Vnder Parole. West Is known aa a dangerous charac ter. Soma time ago he waa arrested with a man named Haywood, and charged with having robbed the Hillsdale post office. Owing to his we. he was given leniency by the court, but Haywood is now serving a sentence at McNeill's loland. West was later sent to the Ore gon Penitentiary, and waa recently pa roled by Governor Chamberlain. Shortly after being; allowed his liberty, he cam upon Detective Hellyer In South Port land and after that officer bad passed him by without Interferlne;. he remarked to a friend that had Hellyer attempted to arrest him then he would have killed th officer. The person to whom West made this remark Immediately visited the police headquarters and told the authorities of the threat, but before West could be found he had left the city or gone Into hiding. He Is also suspected of various other crimes In addition to the murder of Patrolman Toung. liat night a restaurant at 90 First street was held up, and later three men on the Madison-street bridge were at tacked. Pound Carrying Loaded Gun. Christopher, the young fellow captured early yesterday morning, and who has been Identified by the patrons of the res taurant, as well aa by Albert Nelson, was arrested by Patrolman Van Overn, on a charge of carrying; concealed weapons. The oificer came upon htm, acting In a suspicious manner, at first and Main streets at 4 o'clock in the morn ing' and. on Investigation, found a loaded revolver in the young man's hip pocket. He promptly placed the fellow under ar rest and brought him to the station. Since his identification by his victims. It is probable that the charge will be changed to a more serious one some time today. The trio Is believed to have worked to gether on several Jobs, and with this Idea In view, the detectives are Investigating every action of the suspects within the past two months. Tha saloonkeeper In whose place Patrol man Young met his death will be brought to the City Jail today for the purpose of identifying West or one of the other two as guilty of shooting the officer. All three of the prisoners are of about the same height, and If masked and dressed alike. It would be hard to distinguish one from the other, but tha authorities believe that they will have no trouble In tracing several crimes boras to them before their Investigation Is concluded.

FEW ELK KILLED IN LINN Hunters Known to Have Bagged Less Than Dozen During Season. ALBANY, Or., Oct. 11. (Special.) Though but four more days remain of the open season for elk, very few of the big animals have been killed In this county. Six or seven have been killed on the headwaters of Crabtree Creek and hunters have bagged three or four up the South Bantiam River. But there are yet several elk In the mountains of East ern Linn County and as this will probably be the last open season for many years the animals will not become extinct here. When the 1907 Legislature permitted a lapse In elk protection It was generally feared that this would mean the exter mination of the animals, but unless there has been far greater slaughter in other parts of the state than there has here, that fear has not been Justified. The fact that the elk live in very inac cessible places and the consequent diffi culty entailed in reaching them is re sponsible for the small number killed In this county. ; 23t WASHINGTON STv , f PORTLAND OKCCON."
