I THEIR PAROLE SUGGESTED 1 Keeper of Twelve-Mile House Is Ac cused of Selling Liquor to Minor and Allowing Girl Under Age to Visit His Resort. After a full lnvestlsratlon Into all of the circumstances surrounding the tragic Sunday morning "Joy ride." which found lt sensational ending In the death of Mrs. Dolly Ferrara. the grand jury yes terday afternoon returned Indictments gainst the chauffeur. Harry H. Holland, and his companion, John Robertson, and against Frfd T. Merrill, proprietor of the Twelve-Mile House, at whose resort the party of young people had drinks before leaving on the fatal trip over the "death", loop on the Gresham road. Holland and Robertson were Jointly In dicted for grand larceny, while Merrill Is Indicted on two counts, one of which charges selling liquor to a minor and the Other permitting a female under the ags of II years to visit his resort. The in dictment against Holland and ' Robertson which was drawn up by Deputy District Attorney Vreeland. accuses them of the theft of TV. M. Ladd's automobile, of the value of J1S50. and of 14 gallons of gasoline, worth JI.SO. Conviction under this charge carries with It a pen"cntlary penalty. Merrill's offences If proven In court are punishable by both fine and Imprison ment. For selling liquor to a minor the law provides a fine of not lcs than $50 nd not more than $300 or Imprisonment In the County Jnil not exceeding one year, and the forfeiture of his license. For permitting the young Meyer girls In his roadhouse and serving one of them with liquor, he is subject to n fine of ot less than J100 nor more than 11000, and Imprisonment In the County Jail for not less than three months nor more than one year. The law provides that both fine and Imprisonment may be the penal ty. Merrill deposited two bonds of $500 each which were accepted by Judge Ga tens. Grand Jury nears letalrs. The Indictments were handed to" Judge Gatens of the Circuit Court at S:30 o'clock after the grand Jury had spent the greater part of the day listening to he details of the midnight "Joy ride" as they fell from the lips of the penitent Jlever aisters. Anna, Rosa and Eva, who, with Deputy Sheriff Bulger, were the witnesses on whose testimony the Indict ments were based. These young women were brought down from the County Jail. rhere they had been held as witnesses in default of $1000 ball, each in the cus tody of a deputy. Eva was first examined and then Anna fend Rose followed, after which Deputy Bulger was heard. The examination of the witnesses and the Aiacusston of the revelations made by them to the Jury oc cupied all of the forenoon and part of the afternoon. After the noon hour, Eva was called Into the . Jury room again and came out with the teara trickling down her cheeks. After giving their testimony all three of the Meyer girls were re leased. The finding of the Indictment against Merrill Is in line with the public senti ment which has been aroused against roadhouses because of the deaths of Mrs. May Real and Mrs. Ferrara, both of whom were killed on midnight adventures after visits to road resorts where liquor was obtained. The grand Jury failed to Indict Merrill On a third count, which might have been done had the Inquisitorial body been so Inclined. This count is t-at liquor was eold to the Ferrara party on Sunday morning, a charge made but denied by Merrill. This offense is punishable only by a fine of not less than $10 nor more than &. Charge Will Be Dropped. Just before the Jury returned the Indict ments against the participants in the sec ond automobile tragedy of a month. Hol land and Robertson were arraigned be fore Justice Olson on the charge of man slaughter, on which they had been orig inally arrested by officers from Sheriff Stevens' office. Holland was represented by Attorney Brice and Robertson was represented by Attorney Perkins. The prisoners waived examination and were held to await the action of the grand Jury. The grand Jury failing to find an Indictment against them on this count, it Is believed that the manslaughter charge will be dropped. The ultimate outcome of the case with reference to Holland and Robertson will c;pend on whether they Intend to fight the charge of grand larceny. It is said at the District Attorney's office that if the prisoners will consent to plead guilty to the larceny charge it will be recommend ed to the court that they be paroled on pood behavior. With Merrill, however, ac tive prosecution will be Instituted. In case Holland and Robertson want to light their case on technical grounds it may be that the charge of manslaughter will be brought up again and prosecuted. Three other Indictments were also turned In by the grand Jury. Herman Hoefer, of 800 Washington street, is the object of a true bill accusing him of beat ing his wife. George Carlisle and E. E. Cbapman, night employes of the Albina office of the O. R. & N. Railroad, were accused of forgery and larceny. Carlisle appeared before the grand Jury In his own behalf and told that Chapman had tempted him to commit the crime. They are accused of taking two pay checks made out by the railroad company in the name of other employes and securing the cash on them by forging the names of their fellow employes. PERSONALMENTION.

Such as" These Scattered Along the Boreal Trail Would : Make Pole-Hunting a Less Frigid Pastime. More scandal In the divorce suit of L. B. Merton. the traveling salesman, has been unearthed by Charles J. Schnabel,, his attorney. An affidavit, filed In the Circuit Court yesterday, bearing Merton's signature, gives copies of four letters purporting to have been written to Mrs. Josephine Merton by W. B. Ray, while Mrs. Merton was In Chicago. Merton says it was through these letters that he learned that Ray had fallen in love with his wife. He denies his wife's charges in toto, explaining some of them with the counter-charge that she had the de lirium tremens. Merton tells of going -to Washington, la., to visit his uncle, and of leaving his wife there while he- made his trip to visit Western customers. She went to the Majestic Hotel, Chicago, he says, and he received a telegram that she needed care. He wired that she be cared for at a private sanitarium until he arrived. Merton says he found two letters In his wife's possession' addressed to Grace B. Adams, and that the postal authorities at Chicago had about 12 more which they refused to deliver to her, questioning her right to use a fictitious name. Parts of the letters are unprintable. Expurgated, they are in part as follows: , Heal Amorous Young Man. The Owatonna, Owatonna, Mich., 2-24-"0. Dear Jo: . . .
