SAYS BOY BEATEN TO DEATH
Asks If "VTlld Beasts" Cannot Be
Punished Simply Because They
Belong to Navy "Jimmle's"
Spirit Told of Death.
Md.. Aug. - The read
tnr of four sensational letters of Mrs.
Sutton, mother of lieutenant Jamea N.
Sutton, the martao officer whose death
la being InvetPtifrawd by the naval board,
was the feature of the hearing- today.
Ko sooner had Mrs. Button taken the
stand than Major Leonard, judge advo
cate, demanded that her letters, which
were read In the closed session Saturday,
he read in public today. f
Other Mothers to Coruslder.
We are accused of holding a star
chamber sricn." doclared the judge ad
vocate, "and besides there are sundry
other mothers who are entitled to know
their sons are accused of crime."
A hot wrangle followed. Mr. Davis,
counsel fo Mrs. Sutton, argued against
the. necessity of making; the letters
known, as they had no actual bearing on
the evidence. The public reading at this
time would be merely catering to a
prurient curiosity, he contended.
The four letters were written to H. M.
Swartz. a clerk in the marine corps pay
master ' office In Washington, by Mrs.
Sutton. They showed bitter feeling on
her part against a number of officers of
the marine corps and bristled with con
demnations of Sutton's brother officers
and the finding of the first inquest rela
tive to Sutton's death. Under cross-examination
Mrs. Sutton bore herself well.
.Says Officers Hated "Jimmie."
Referring to the automobile ride that
preceded Sutton's death. Mrs. Sutton de
clared In one of the letters that, if "Jim
mie" had been himself, he never would
have asked Lieutenants Adams, I'tley
and Osterman to ride with him. Adams
v and Utley hated him. she declared. Men
tion Is also made of Lieutenants Potts,
Sumner and Shearer.
"On October 1." she wrote. "Jimmie
borrowed J210 from the bank. On October
8 he gave Shearer a check for J130, and I
wrote Shearer and asked him what it was
for. He said he had Just cashed it for
Jimmie. I did not believe him and wrote
and told him what I thought of such men,
who would let a man in a helpless con
dition be taken out and beaten to death."
On subsequent occasions when she had
written Shearer, his replies were curt,
she says.
Is Murderer Immune In Xavy?
On May 4 Mrs. Sutton promised to send
Swartz a copy of the first Inquest testi
mony and a copy of whatever she had
later obtained. She recited her difficulties
In obtaining anything definite about
"Jlmmle's" death.
"Do you mean to say that, if we prove
what we know, these men cannot be pun
ished simply because they belong to the
Xavy?" she wrote. "Those men know
why thev are so secret about the affair,
but we are not sleeping and I think the
Vnlted States will be compelled to sit up
and take nntlce what kind of men run
the Navy and shield a pack of low
brutes."
"Adams. Utley and Osterman's faces
will he ermngh to convict them. Tou will
see that Jimmie is the smallest in this
class and yet it took three big men to do
him to death. Shearer looks like an ex
convict." Cm cross-examination Mr. Blrney in
sisted that Mrs. Sutton explain why she
made these derogatory comments. She
returned that she could express an opin
ion about people's faces without Intending
to mean that every one criticized was im
plicated in her son's death. She further
insisted that the opinions expressed in
her letters to Swartz had been arrived at
through reading' the testimony and that
she still held to her original belief.
Had Premonition of Death.
continued the mother in this letter to
Swartz. "was the greatest that could exist
between two persons. If Jimmie met
with an accident. I felt at once. Well,
the nislit those beasts were laying their
plans for Jimmie. an awful fear came
ov.t me and my two daughters; we could
not talk and each kept away from the
other for f-ar of betraying our feelings.
Next day Mr. Sutton came In asked if
I could stand some awful news. He told
me that Jimmie was reported to have
killed himself."
"Oh. God. Mr. Swartz," the writer ex
claims, "If Jlmmlc had not spoken to
me. 1 would have died. Then. Jimmie
came up to me and said: 'Mother, dear,
don't you believe It: I never killed myself.
Adams killed me; t!iey beat me to death
and then Adams shot me to hide the
crime.'
Spurred On by Son's Spirit.
"He told me how they laid the trap
for him. how he walked into it. how
Utley grabbed him to pull him out of
the automobile: how they held him and
Osterman beat him; about his forehead
I.einK broken, his teeth knocked out.
and the lump under his jaw. and how
when he was lying on the ground some
one kicked him In the side and smashed
his watch. He begged me not to die,
but to live and clear his, name. Well,
after three weeks I proved some things
he told me were true, and after repeat
edly demanding the evidence, after four
months I got It. and within the last
month I have proved everything he told
me.
"Nothing could separate Jimmie from
me. not even death, and Adams, Utley.
Potts and Osterman will never know a
momen's rest on earth. Why should
they?
"I cannot understand why every one
cannot see that they are trying to hide
the real crime and protect those men.
If we cannot get Justice through the
courts, every newspaper In the United
States shall have these facts as we have
them, and then see what the opinion
of the world will be."
The fourth letter was dated May 16.
In it Mrs. Sutton told of having re
ceived a letter from young Ownes. the
chauffeur, and said that she would In
close a copy of that letter to Swart.
Her Theory of Murder Plot.
"You can see from that." she said,
'that Adams sat on the front seat. I
suppose he thought by stopping the car it
would start a fight and when he found It
would not. he started at Jimmy, anyway.
I nrrniy believe it was Jimmie who called
sentry' when he saw Owens leaving and
realized what those wild beasts were up
to. and I suppose the blow in the fore
head was what silenced him. In speak
ing of the trouble In hazing at the acad
emy he used to say. 'You are perfectly
sate out on the grounds, for. If any one
Jumna rou all you have to do la call a
sentry,' and that Is why I believe It was
Jimmie who called when he saw what
they were up to."
Three more witnesses were summoned
today for the Inquiry. One is a resident
of this city, Charles H. Russell. Another
is Corporal Todd, of the Marine Corps,
corporal of the (ruard on the night of
Sutton's death. The third Is a Washing
ton man whose name is not divulged.
Asks Swartz to Befriend Her.
In the first letter made public Mrs.
Sutton wrote:
"I want to speak to you in confidence,
but don't feel that I can do so until I
hear from you. and If you were not Jim
mie's friend, I will admire you the more
for you to sav so than not to and make
believe that you were. These brutes that
killed him are alive and seemingly doing
well, while my boy Is dead five months
todar. Tell me I can trust you."
In the second letter, written April 9,
evidently in answer to Swartz, Mrs. Sut
ton says that "after Jimmie was killed.
Captain Marlx and Lieutenant Utley took
his keys and went through his trunk. Can
you tell me If they had a right to touch
anvthing? To make it more horrible.
Utiey was with Adams and Osterman
when Jimmie was killed. I believe he
engineered that right."
Shot Fired to Hide Crime.
Mrs. Button then described the meeting
of the officers at Carvel all the night
of the tragedy, emphasizing; the fact that
while her son was talking to a Miss Stew
art and Dr. Coleman, of the academy,
Osterman and Adanas withdrew and had
a talk.
"Now, at 1 o'clock Sunday morning,"
the letter continues, "Jlnrmie was beaten
to death. That shot was fired to hide the
crime. His forehead was crushed, nose
broken, lips cut open, teeth knocked out
and an incision made In the head, half
an inch long.
"Just think what my poor boy's suffer
ings must have been as he was beaten to
death by those wild beasts. Good God,
Mr. Swartx, the work of wild men, and
this on their own sworn testimony, and
still they are walking the street today
while my poor boy lies in the grave
stamped as a suicide."
HAD TO GIVE TP ALL LETTERS
Swartz Denies He Was Forced, but
Admits Act Unavoidable.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 9. Harry N.
Swartz. clerk in the "marine paymas
ter's office, whose name was brought
out in the Sutton hearing today as the
Washington man with whom Mrs. Sutton
corresponded concerning the manner in
which her son came to his death, declared
todav that he was not forced, through
his connection with the Navy Depart
ment, to give up the letter, but would
make no explanation of why he did so.
He stated:
"All I can aay Is, I was unfortunate.
I got Into a position where I could not
act otherwise from the way I did. I am
absolutely not going to talk about this
thing any more."
MANGLED UNDER TRAMCAR
Charles Levi Sleets Shocking Acci
dent at Clatskanle.
CLAT3KANIE. Or., Aug. . SpecIal.)
Charles Levi, aged 25 yearsi brakeman on
the tramway logging road at the Brough
ton & Wiggins sawmill near this place,
was the victim of a. shocking accident to
day which will result In his being a
cripple for life. He was riding on a
board underneath a loaded truck, as the
cans were pulled backward up the grade
for a second start, when the truck
Jumped the track, running over him and
crushing him terribly. His right leg was
broken twice and the left once. Young

tia street, Fremont, was first produced as
a purchaser of this Ballard property from
Mollie Wilson." explained Morrow. "She
was only a figurehead. Dr. J. Eugene
Jordon being the real gun and furnishing
the money to make tne ngnt.
"There was an agreement signed by
which a certain division of the property
was to be made later In event the court
held the Wilson claim valid. Mollie Wil
son arranged to hold title to an undi
vided 15 acres. An arrangement was en
tered Into between these claimants and
Jay C. Allen, and any associate counsel
he might employ, giving them title to
846-1000 of any part of this property they
might save in court, but Mr. Allen knew
nothing of the later attempts to 'fix' the
court, so far as I know.
"It was in November, after an adverse
decision in the Ramsey case by Judge
Albertson that Jordon said he would have
to "fix things up." He said Palmer would
be the proper man to see to 'work' Judge
Root
"I told Jordon: 'I have my doubts
about that; isn't it pretty dangerous T
"Jordon. however, wanted me to 'see'
Palmer, and I told him I could not do It;
that It was 'not proper."
"Afterwards, I was In Jordon's office
and met Mrs. Brown, and Jordon told
me 'we have got them coming." I asked
him what he meant, and he told me 'Mrs.
Brown has Just got back from Palmer's
office and they have got another confer
ence on." "
Continuing his story. Morrow said:
"Judge Bell went to Olympla from Se
attle twice to see Crow in this matter.
Once I saw him paid money for the trip.
He was to try and fix things up with
Crow.
- "Jordon told Bell he wanted him to go
to Olympla and see Crow to learn If
there was no way In which a rehearing
could be obtained in this case, promising
If Bell were successful In 'fixing' this
case that he would agree to a division.
Conversation Is Overheard.
"On this same trip Bell was to see
Crow about the Ballard case and see If
it was possible to "fix" that also."
"How do you know all this?" asked the
chairman of the committee.
"I was in Jordon's back parlor," re
plied Morrow, "and Jordon and Bell stood
In the next room with only a thin curtain
between. I saw the money pass and
heard the conversation plainly." .
Returning to the Wilson case. Morrow
told of having been shown a typewritten
decision by Jordon which the latter
claimed would be rendered by the Su
preme Court,
"This typewritten copy purported to
be a decision' which Jordon explained
would be later rendered by the Supreme
Court." said Morrow.
"'Jordon told me he had written this
advance decision himself and that it
would be rendered by the Supreme
Court,"
Denials Are Made.
"There is nothirg to the statement of
Morrow." says E. B. Palmer. Mr.
Palmer was a spectator at today's pro
ceedings of the investigation committee,
"Just another line of persecution." says
Judge Hoot,
VI will say what I have to say before
the committee tomorrow," says Dr. J.
lugene Jordan.
Dr. Jordan has been summoned to ap
pear and tejl what he knows about Mor
row and to defend himself against the
statements made today.
