USE NEW METHODS
Police Adopt Bertillon and
"Finger-Print" Systems.
STUDY MADE BY DETECTIVE
Portland. Detective. Day nd Prlc. man
aged to pick the Identity of one criminal
who wn under suspicion and who had
been arrested from a thumb mark sent
from another city. This was done about
two months ago, and so striking were
the Rood features of the system revealed
by this on. Isolated case that the chief
of detectives decided to Install It promptly
In Portland.
Hunter Returns From Oakland
Where He Got Data to Be Em
ployed by Criminal-Catchers
In This City.
The Identification of criminals by means
of the Bertillon system of measurements
and by the application of the "finger
print" Identification method Is to be em
ployed In the future by the Portland
police department. Detective Hunter, of
the local police force, has Just returned
from Oakland, where he has been for the
last month studying the finger print and
Bertillon systems under the 'tutelage of
H. H. Caldwell, the most expert man on
the Pacific Coast in the employment of
these means of identification. Mr. Hun
ter had studied the systems from texts
before Journeying to Oakland.
The two systems will be Installed at
once in PortfTland. An ordflr wiH be
rent Immediately for a complete outfit
for the taking of Bertillon measurements.
Mr. Hunter will be placed in charge of
this department. At present he is the
only person In Portland who has made
a thorough study of this work.
The finger print means of Identification
consists of having the criminal make an
Impression of each thumb and finger on
a card constructed for the purpose of
retaining the Impressions. Then the Im
pressions are classified, and the system
is such that a man may be Identified by
a telegraphic description of the finger
prints which merely give the classifica
tion numbers. These cards will all be
filed In the office of the detectives here
and an Index system arranged whereby,
from telegraph messages, the correct
cards may be located at once.
The Bertillon system of measurements,
which describes accurately every scar
and Jrregularlty on the criminal, has been
employed for a number of years in large
cities of America and it Is said by mem
bers of the local detective force that
there ts no other 'city In the country to
day the size of Portland which has not
for a long time made use of the Bertillon
measurement system. The same Is said
to be true of the employment of finger
prints as a means of sure Identifica
tion. While the latter mode of .Identification
has neror bean regularlr employed in i
FULLY CLOTHED HE SLEEPS
Chinese Patient Refnses to Conform
to Hospital Rules.
A patient'who cannot or will not go to
sleep unless fully dressed and with his
hat on is at the Good Samaritan Hospital.
Cndressed by the orderlies, the patient,
a Chinaman. Toi Sing by name, living at
Second and Pine, will gradually work on
his pantaloons' and flowered vest, place
on his hat and then taking an opium
pill from under his pillow where he has
a little store secreted, will go to sleep
with all dignity.
Sing has a. tubercular gland In his neck
and his nurses do not approve of his
actions.
Yesterday his garments were removed.
Sing promptly reached out his hand for
the bell-push, with which each patient
is supplied, and pressed it until the nurse
rushed to him. Just one word would Sing
deign. ' "clothes." The nurse told him
he could not have them and went away.
Again the bell rang so as -to 'disturb
everyone. Again the Yeply. the mono
syllable "clothes." and again the nurse's
refusal. The Chinaman never gave up.
Again' the bell pealed. "A Chinaman has
no sense anyway." laughed the harrassed
nurse, as she tossed the clothes on the
bed.
With a dignity all his own. Sing put
on each article of attire. He -Inspected
his yachting cap and put it on. Out came
the opium pellet. "Good Chinee medi
cine." he said. Then, still preserving the
dignity the cap gave him. Sing turned
over and went to sleep.

Request of Mining School for Pitch

Samples.
BABY REVIVED GETS WELL
After Beina; Dead 'Five Minutes,
Child Restored and Recovers.
Gilbert Wagener. the lO-months-old
baby that was miraculously restored to
life Saturday " after being choked to
death by a piece of. apple. ' has almost
been restored To normai health again,
said Dr..F. A. Short yesterday afternoon.
Five minutes after the death "of the
child the physician, arrived. . finding the
child black in the ace. without heart
movement, respiration or other Indica
tion of life. .' The removal of the apple,
followed by long-continued efforts at
artificial respiration to restore life, final
ly resulted In restoring-suspended ani
mation. Gilbert 'Wagener Is the son of Harry
Wagener. of Woodstock, but the near
catastrophe occurred while Mr. and Mrs.
Waener'were visiting at 612 10th street.
If Oregqn contained the radium deposits
described in letters that are pouring into
the Chamben.pf Commerce each day from
miners In various localities, the mineral
wealth of the state would be so great that
all other of its boasted resources would
be lnconsequental in comparison to It.
Imagine how little interest would apples
draw, even at ts a box. If radium, which
demands between $8,000,000 and 9.000,000
a pound, could be picked out of the
ground In large quantities.
A. W. Miller, who has charge of the min
eral exhibits at the Chamber of Com
merce, recently roceived a request from
the School of Mines at Golden, Colo.,
to obtain samples of ore that looks like
pltchblend. In which radium appears, for
It is believed that somewhere in the West
are valuable deposits of this rich ore. All
samples are to be tested at the school,
and any lucky prospector who locates
a deposit of pltchblend might be able to
buy out the United States mint.
To various papers In the state, Mr.
Miller sent notices that he was prepared
to get samples of whafmlght prove to
be pltchblend. but now he has begun to
regret making the offer. For Mr. Miller
confesses to being a man of a sympathtc
nature, and to write to the hundreds of
men who have confided In him concern
ing their positive wealth In pltchblend
mines, and break the news to them that
after all their visions of wealth they
are simply Ulusionod humaji beings, is
a task he Would avoid if he could.
, One of the more excitable letters of this
kind was received yesterday, accompa
nied by a large package of ordinary
shale, many miles of which can be found
covering the ground in some parts of
Oregon. The writer was certain it was
pltchblend, and he told of the large de
posits he had found. He was anxiously
waiting for a reply from Mr. Miller, al
though he seemed to have no doubt con
cerning the identity of the rock.
The ricrf samples he forwarded are now
reposing In a garbage can and a letter
wUI go to Josephine County today to tell
the man who sent It to keep his pltch
blend at home, for It Is not desired here
or anywhere else.
"I really don't like to discourage these
prospectors." said Mr. Miller yesterday,
"for L feel confident that somewhere In
the state pitchblend can be found."

SQUIRES 'CASE POSTPONED
Woman Assaulted. AJ leges She Is
Too Badly Hurt to Appear.
The case against Harry Squires, the
well-known turfman and owner of race
horses, was called yesterday afternoon In
Justice Court before Justice Olson, but
was postponed until Mrs. Jay Hamilton,
Squires' former wife whom he is accused
of having pulled through a window and
assaulted. Is able to appear in court.
Word was sent that Mrs. Hamilton was
too ill from the results of her beating to
leave her bed. Justice Olson was dis
inclined to grant a continuance of the
case and when urged to do so by Attor
neys Baker and Huntsman, who appeared
for Squires, issued an order for the
County Physician to examine Mrs. Ham
ilton and see if she were as badly in
jured as she asserts.
The attorneys of the defendant set up
the claim In court that Mrs. Hamilton
was suffering from Intoxication more
than from bodily injury.- They were un
able to offer any evidence, but upon their
representations a physician representing
the defense was given permission to" ac
company the County Physician.
Squires and his wife and Miss Hazel
Kelson, a 17-year-old niece of Mrs.
Squires, who lives at the Squires home,
all assert Squires was at home and
asleep at the time the assault was com
mitted and that he has been singled out
as an 'object of Mrs.. Hamilton's spite.
Some lll-feellng has grown tip about their
son, Harry' Squires, 20 years old. who
was undecided whether to live with hla
father or his mother.
.Justice Olson announced if Mrs. Hamil
ton were able to- come tc courtand further-
objected he would send an officer
and force her to come.

So She Has Him Arrested for Beat
ing Her and Then Tells Court
Real Reason and Is Satisfied.
Cornelius Battsman, a laborer, was
haled into court yesterday on complaint
of his wife, who alleged he had severely
beaten and assaulted her. When the case
came up, Mrs. Battaman said her hus
band had never beaten her and that she
had brought the charge merely to get
him into court so he could explain the
report that had reached her of his having
a wife and four children in the old coun
try. "What did you mean by having this
man arrested?" demanded Judge Bennett.
Well, your honor,"-the woman pleaded,
"some one sent me a letter and it said
that in the old country my man
had left another wife with four children.
That bothered me so I thought I would
find out what he has against me by
marrying me when he knows he has
another wife and four little babies over
there."
Battsman protested so vehemently
against this that at his own request he
was put under oath and swore he had
only one wife - and that he loved her.
When Mrs. Battsman heard the. words
which dispelled her suspicions she danced
up and down with pleasure and was
about to turn away when she suddenly re
membered something else and putting her
hand under the folds of her dress with
draw a paper package containing dark
looking powder and produced it for Judge
Bennett's inspection. "But, your honor,
there is one more thing I would like to
have explained." she hesitated. "Some
one has been spreading this poison about
the house trying to kill me. Cornelius,
tell us what you know about that."
"Poison." ejaculated Deputy ' District
Attorney Hennessy, "let me see It," and
be placed the powder to his nose. A
violent sneeze followed. "Why, this is
not poison; It is only snuff," declared the
prosecutor.
"Well, if that's the case I guess I take
my man back. I thought all the time
he was all right, but somehow I like
thesa things explained to me," with
which the unsophisticated woman and
her husband held a joyful reunion and
-went happily out of the courtroom after
a caution from the bench to avoid family
jars.
