weeks in the Coon Pny territory look
ing over business conditions and the
outlook for the- new year. While there

hlngles from the mill at Coqullle. The

Mr. Gray declares that the business
outlook for 1909 is very (rood and he
looks for a great Increase in freight
offerings, both In and out.
"Fifteen vessels were in Coos Bay
last week." said Mr. Gray. "Of this
number six were loading at the C. A.
Smith mills, and four at Simpson's
mill. The rest m-ere steamships, the
Alliance. Breakwater. M. F. Plant.
Czarina and Rrdondo. Smith's mill is
working two shifts now and with one
or two exceptions all the mills on the
bar are running".
"Lumber will began to move much
more rapidly with the opening- of the
new year. The demand is increasing
and the coming- year will be a record
breaker.' The Coquille River country
Is forging rapidly to the front and a
large amount of that business In com
ing to Portland which formerly was
handled by fan Francisco merchants."
The Alliance did not reach her Port
land dock until 10:30 yesterday morn
ing. She was compelled to anchor

WHITNEY IS GUILTY
Convicted of Manslaughter for
Death of Mabel Wirtz.
JURY OUT THIRTY MINUTES
Prisoner Unmercifully Scored by
Iroecntor Penalty Is One to
Fifteen Years In State's
Prison, and Fine.
"Tour decision In this case is of
more importance to the community
than the findings on all the murder
trials put together. There is a matter
Involved whlcu reaches to the' very
basis of society. Tou are called upon
to deal with a black polluter of young
womanhood to deal with an excel
lent specimen of a type that is become
altogether too common. And I hope
you will find this lecherous beast
guilty of manslaughter In connection
with the death, of his fiancee, Mabel
Wirtz."
Huch was the final plea for convic
tion of Dr. G. B. Whitney presented
to the Circuit Court jury yesterday
morning by Deputy District Attorney
Fitzgerald. And the jury took the
same viewpoint and inside of half an
hour from the minute of withdrawal
from the courtroom, retched a verdict
of guilty. This means that the young
Forest Grove dentist will haye to
spend from 1 to J 5 years In the Ore
gon penitentiary for his misconduct,
provided he does not succeed in ef
fecting a successful appeal. A fine
may also be imposed in the discretion
of the court. Notice of "application for
a new trial has not yet been tendered.
The case went to the jury at 10:30
I A. M., after Dr. Whitney had been pic
tured is the vilest of human creatures.
Mr. Fitzgerald likened him to the ser
pent in the Garden of Eden, and said
he was a sore on the social fabric of
a kind which would in time sap so
ciety of Its moral strength unless
dealt with and wiped out.
"His lawyer pleads with you for
sympathy for this man." said the pros
ecuting officer. "He Is not entitled to
sympathy. If there is any sympathy
to be given in this case It should go
o sorrowing parents of the young
girl whose life this lecherous beast
destroyed.
"It is plain as light that death was
causel by a local application of mer
curial poison, used for the purpose of
preventing possible working out of the
laws of nature. It is equally plain
that this creature gave her the poi
son. Posing as a medical student, he
tempted her. Like the serpent In the
Garden of Eden, he purred Ms lecher
ous temptation, saying that he knejv
the way to avoid the consequences.
Such a snake la the most dangerous
kind, and I hope you will put th-ls man
away where he belongs. In a felon's
cell, not only as retribution for the
life he took, but as a warning to the
other carrion that are wont to prey
on unsophisticated womanhood."
The jurors returned at 11 A. M.. and
from the briefness of their stay It was
thought by many that a verdict favor
able to the defendant had been reached.
Whitney was in such a nervous state
that he kept his seat with difficulty.
But when the verdict was read and he
realized that ire was face to face with
the penitentiary, he steadied himself
and turned back into the courtroom to
console his sister, who broke out sob
bing on hearing the verdict. Judge
Cleland announced that he would pass
sentence on the case next Monday
morning.

Election of Taft Changes Sen
atorial Question.
GOVERNOR LOSES SUPPORT
AVlth Republican President, Eastern
Oregon Feels That Republican
Senator Is Xecessary, Says Sen- '
.ator Beach on His Return.
State Senator S. C. Beach returned
yesterday morning from an extended
trip through Eastern Oregon, where he
was working up a sentiment against
the sending of Governor Chamberjaln
back to Washington as United States
Senator from Oregon. Senator Beach
also visited Seattle." and though of
course this had nothing to. do with
the 'Oregon Senatorial light, and while
he would not admit it, it Is evident
that he was doing some charitable
work among- the Washington politi
cians against any possibility of their
having anything so bothersome as a
Statement No. 1 In Washington.
'The work of having Oregon send a
Republican back to the United States
Senate is progressing as well as can
be expected." said Senator Beach.
"Throughout Eastern Oregon I found
among the rank and file Republicans a
very strong sentiment against Cham
berlain as United States Senator. They
have had plenty of time to think since
the Oregon election, and the matter
has been brought home to them even
more vividly since the election of Taft.
"During my trip I met and talked
with a great many people, and while
I must admit there were some in favor
of sending Chamberlain to Wash
ington. I was pleased to learn for my
self that the sentiment was not nearly
as strong on this vital point as I had
been led to believe. In the sections
where the country newspapers have
taken up the fight. I find there Is a
strong desire to have the state repre
sented by a Republican. That's about
all I can say on he matter at this
time. We are carrying on the fight
and will do so. It Is Impossible to tell
how the matter will end; but just now
I am not Inclined to worry of the re
sult." Senator Beach was not the only Ore
gon politician abroad in Seattle. He
ran across a zealous, and hard-working
Statement man, also doing mission
ary work.
