THE MORXIXJ OK EGOSIAX, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 19Q3.
MORSE TO SERVE
15 YEARS IN CELL
Ice King and Bank-Wrecker Is
Given Severe Sentence
for Fraud.
CURTIS GETS HIS FREEDOM
Mors Ask for Ball and Will Ap
peal Dramatic Scene When Sen
tence Is Passed Mob
Hoots Ice King.
NEW YORK. Nov. 6. From a cell In
the Tombs prison Charles W. Morse
row directs the efforts of his counsel to
procure his freedom, he having been
sentenced today to serve 15 years In the
Federal prison at Atlanta, Ga.. for
misapplication of the funds of the Na
tional Bank of North America and
making false entries in the books of
the bank. Alfred H. Curtis, ex-president
of the defunct bank, who was
tried Jointly and convicted with Morse,
was Riven his liberty today on a sus
pended sentence.
While Morse's lawyers Immediately
applied for and obtained a stay of exe
cution for l- days after sentence had
been imposed, it is probable Morse will
remain a prisoner in the Tombs until
Monday, as Judge Hough has refused
to admit him to ball.
Will Fight to Lt Ditch.
The Morse lawyers applied late today
to th I nited States Court of Appeals
lor a writ to show cause why their
client should not be admitted to ball,
and the writ was granted, but It is not
returnable until Monday.
Whether a new trial will be granted
Morse Is problematical. Judge La
combe granted a writ of error to his
'awyers today. The writ Is returnable
IK-cember 3. and is based on the usual
grounds exceptions taken by the de
fense during the trial and exceptions
to the Indictment Itself. This step had
to be taken before application for ball
could be made, and it also leads to the
argument for a new trial.
Morse's lawyers say their client has
Instructed them to fight "to the last
ditch."
Comforters Need Comfort.
The scene In the courtroom when the
sentence was pronounced by Judge
Hough was most dramatic. The wives
of the two prisoners, who had been con
stant attendants at court during the
trial, were present early today, as If
anxious to cheer their husbands by
their presence in the trying ordeal that
confronted them. When the real test
came, however, ft was the husbands
and not the wives who proved the com
forters. Morse sat like a stole when he heard
the words which condemned him to
prison. There was scarcely the tremor
of an-eyelid, and to those who watched
there was no longer even the shadow of
a doubt that the "little man" was In
deed a man of iron nerve.
Curtis, too. accepted the news which
came to him good news In his case
with the same lack of emotion that
characterized his former chief. But the
train was too great for the women.
As the truth which Judge Hough's
words meant flaahed through her mind.
Mrs. Morse, who through all the try
ing days of the trial had preserved
an unruffled demeanor, collapsed In her
scat, buried her face in her hands, and
began to sob convulsively. Still weep
ing, she was led away to an ante-room,
where a moment later her husband held
her in his arms and sought to console
her.
Mrs. Curtis Faints at Good X'ews.
Nor was Mrs. Curtis any more pre
pared for the nervous strain than Mrs.
Morse. Mrs. Curtis sat within the rail,
gazing Intently at Judge Hough, as he
began to speak. She had been 111, and
several times during the trial had been
forced to leave her place In the court
room. Today ber face was drawn and
white, telling of a night of mingled
hope and fear, while her husband re
mained awav from her behind the bars
of a prison cell. When the Judgment of
court the most favorable for her hus
band that could be given was pro
nounced, she fainted, and would have
fallen had not kindly hands supported
her.
Ex-Judge Oloott, who had rep
resented Curtis in the trial, made a
touching appeal for clemency on behalf
of his client.
Speculate With Bank's Money.
In this appeal he was given the
active aid of District Attorney Stlmson,
r-ho Informed the court that he be
lieved Justice would be served by sus
pending sentence In the case of Curtis.
After Justifying the clemency for Cur
tis. Judge Hough pronounced the sen
tence upon Morse.
"In the case of Morse there Is not
much to be saJd." said Judge Hough.
"As In all bank fraud cases, the crimi
nality Is only a part of a larger
general scheme. In this case It waa to
use the bank and depositors' money for
speculative purposea if such a scheme
were permitted to be carried out. the
public would be at the mercy of a band
of adventurers. I therefore sentence
you to IS years In the Federal prison In
Atlanta. Ga."
Morse declined to make any comment
on his conviction and sentence today. "I
haven't a word to say; that Is. not now,"
he said.

S GAME
BEATS WILLIAMS AVEME IX
HARD GHIDIROX BATTLE.
Teams Evenly Matched and Brook
lyn Scores During Last Two
Minutes of Play.
In the Grammar School League game,
yesterday, at East Thirteenth and East
Davis streets. Brooklyn triumphed over
Williams Avenue by the close score of
-4. The two teams were evenly matched
and through the entire game the ball
went continually from one end of the
field to the other. Brooklyn's score was
made during the last two minutes of
play when this side was apparently
beaten and came as the result of a 60
yard run by Wilson.
Williams Avenue scored early In the
first half by recovering the ball twice on
kicks and getting It finally on the 20-yard
line from which point F. Nelson drop
kicked a pretty goal. This made the
score 4-0 In Williams Avenue's favor. The
advantage was maintained throughout the
first half.
The two teams fought evenly through
out the second half and the ball was
kept mostly in the centre of the field.
Straight footbail was used by both teams
with the exception of a rlss-cross which
the two Williams Avenue ends employed
with success. With time fast coming to
an end and the bail In Williams Avenue's
possession on their 40-yard line the sit
uation seemed hopeless for the Brooklyn
boys, when Wilson picked up one of Nel
son's punts and ran 60 yards through the
entire opposing team for a touchdown.
The goal was kicked, making the score
6-4. and time was called soon after the
next kick-off.
Palm. Homster. Stout and F. Nelson
played the best game for Williams Ave
nue, while Wilson and Adams were the
most effective men for the Brooklyn
team.

Multnomah Team Is In Good Condi
tion for Hard Game.
The Multnomah Amateur Athletic
Club's football squad yesterday engaged
In final practice for the game with the
Aberdeen Athletic Club to be played on
Multnomah field this afternoon. After
the practice, both Manager Pratt and
Captain Stott expressed themselves as
satisfied with the showing made by the
squad.
Aberdeen la believed to possess a very
strong team, and the Multnomah eleven
does not Intend to take any chance of be
ing caught napping through overconfl
dence. as was the case in the game with
The Dalles Athletic Club last Saturday.
Bud James has thoroughly recovered his
ability to boot the ball, and his long
spirals will surely prove a feature of the
game. Forrest Smithson. Perry Austin,
Jack Oswald. Knudson. Bert Pllkington.
Dow Walker. George Carlson. Rex Con
ant. Woodland and the rest of the squad
worked out In splendid shape yesterday.
Each man has been thoroughly drilled in
catching punts and forward passes, and
also In the knack of diving for the ball.
The players are determined to redeem
themselves for the mistakes of last week,
and unless Aberdeen is m great deal
stronger than is estimated. Multnomah
should add another victory to the sea
son's record of continuous success. The
"Black Cats." however, are coming
strong, and their rooters believe that the
Grays Harbor contingent can defeat
Multnomah. Loyalty to the club is one
of Aberdeen's mottoes. The Aberdeen
contingent will arrlva this morning, and
this afternoon's game will start prompt
ly at 3:30 o'clock.

BY W. J. PETRAIS.
The husky footballists from Columbia
University added another victory to their
string yesterday by defeating the gritty
little players representing the Bast Side
High School by the score of 12 to 0. Co
lumbia was easily the best team, though
the defeated contingent Is entitled to
much credit for the splendid defense it
put up throughout the game.
All of the scores were made by Colum
bia in the first half of the game, for in
the second half, after Walker had been
disabled to such an extent that he could
not punt, Jones excelled the Columbia
kickers for extensive gains. In fact
Jones' great work at kicking kept the
ball almost continuously In Columbia
territory in the second half.
Columbia was unquestionably the
stronger team on offense and defense
play as far as straight football was con
cerned. The "Purple and White" also
aucceerxed In executing several forward
passes and onside kicks to the discom
fort of the East Side team. In fact
Gordon Moores' boys displayed a better
knowledge, of inside football at all stages
of the game than did the lads who have
been coached by Rev. Paul Rader.
The first score was made by Columbia
within four minutes after the game be
gan. Straight football, occasionally in
terrupted by a successful forward pass
from Quarterback Seufert to either of the
Columbia ends. Joe Campbell and J.
O'Brien, netted the university boys
material gains. In this manner they ad
vanced the ball to East Side's 12-yard
line, where a delayed pass to Ennis. the
sturdy halfback who later went in at
quarter, caught the East Side boys nap
ping, and Ennls went over for a touch
down without the slightest hindrance.
The play was splendidly executed and
succeeded In pulling the entire East Side
defense to the wrong side of the line,
while Ennis with the ball safely stowed
away under his arm, scooted over the
line for a touchdown. Walker kicked the
goal cleanly and the score was 6 to 0.
Columbia started another advance down
the field as soon as the ball was kicked
off. and by almost the same series of
tactics, scored another touchdown by
sending Walker over from the Bast Side
10-yard line. The big fellow then kicked
another goal, making the score 12 to 0.
Several players on both teams dis
tinguished themselves at frequent In
tervals. The wonderful ground-gaining
abilities of Ennls. Pomeroy, Walker and
Dooley for Columbia was a revelation,
while Captain Anson Cornell and Ed
leader, the two really brilliant stars
of the East Side contingent, each played
remarkable ball. In fact it waa due prac
tically to the efforts of these two play
ers, both on offense snd defense, that
Columbia did not roll up a greater score.
Halfback Jones must also be given credit
for his splendid punting, for he excelled
the opposing kickers ten yards on every
punt, but was not up to his usual
standard In carrying the balL On the
other hand Columbia gained repeatedly
in running back punts, for the East Side
ends seemed slow in getting into action,
and some of the players who were In
position to make advantageous tackles,
failed to down their man. Hare, the Co
lumbia center, proved one of the strong
est players of the day. for he frequently
broke through the East Side line and
downed his man or blocked a punt.

nals and to punish the guilty person.
"It ie unfortunate that these young
girls have been brought into humiliation
In the course of the Investigation into
the theft of a suit of clothing from a de
partment store." ald Mr. Greene, "but
the fact remains that the City of Port
land spends $190,000 a year to maintain a
police force, and the taxpayers demand
that the police do something to earn
their salaries. In this case the suit was
stolen, the detectives got a clew and fol
lowed it up with an investigation which
resulted in taking Miss Lulu La Foun
taine to the detective office for exami
nation. Subsequently, she was released
and has been proved entirely Innocent,
as Is also her sister. However, the de
tectives had to do the work of Investiga
tion, with the results as stated.
"While I say that It Is unfortunate
that the girls were humiliated it cannot
be helped. Having been found innocent
and the facts made known. It seems to
me it can do no harm or injury to them.
To censure the officers would quickly
result In a feeling of fear among the offi
cers and they would hesitate to investi
gate suspicious circumstances because of
likelihood of a reprimand. In view of all
the facts I must dismiss the charges
against Detectives Coleman and Ten
nant." There was recently an epidemic of
thefta from department stores and the
detective etaff was putting forth every
effort to ferret out the guilty person at
about the time this case developed. The
suit was stolen September 28, and the
girls proved they were home nearly all
of that day.
