TIIE MORNING OREGONIAN, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 23, 1909. 8 HUNG JURY Mil! SAVE BLAKESLEY Man Known to Have Blocked Other State Cases Is Ac cepted as Juror. STATE MAY DROP CASE District Attorney Passes Lie in Clos ing Argument State. After Indict ing Convict, Calls Him Myth. Blackmail Trial Ended. (Continued From First XJmr. ) Qulrlc for you." Prescott testified he re plied. il!p It to me," ai Blakesley's re sponse, said Prescott. "I will, lika hell," whs Prescott's re ported reply, closing the Interview. This was the first direct evidence be yond handwriting testimony to connect Blakesley with the alleged blnckmail plot, and In the arguments which fol lowed was kept constantly before the jury, both prosecutors interspersing their i!t clam.-tlons with "slip it to me." W. I-omcroy, foirrer grand jury foreman, the last witness for the state, its called to prove Jack McCarthy, Bi.ikesiey s alleged confederate, a "bogie man." a "figment of imagination." as he was termed by the prosecution. Fomeroy testified that Blakerfey in the grand jury room paid , he would not have been able to find McCarthy even If he had obtained $: from Treasurer Quick. At this Juncture only a motion delaj-ed the n.oxt dramatic scene of the four days' tr;al. Attorney Haney. for the defense, requested that the letter basing the al leged extortion charge be withdrawn as insufficient evidence, the subsequent mo tion being that the court direct the jury to return a not-guilty verdict. The mo tion was overruled. Then came "Toots" Blakesley's sigh, silence accompanying the submission of instructions for the Jury to Judge Eakin, and the closing argument were on. Barley Starts Fireworks. Attorney George Bagley, assistant prosecutor for County Treasurer Quick, opened the argument for the state, his statements in particular causing a sharp attack on the prosecution by the defense as the arguments progressed. "There are a great many points In the case which the state will not dis cuss." said Attorney Bagley 'In a low tone after a shrill denunciation of the defense in general and reference, to the "action" of "Toots' Blakesley in court. Then rose Attorney John H. Steven son, of Portland, for the defense. At torney Stevenson held the Jury spell bound. Each of me talesmen craned his neck and followed every movement of the barrister with his eyes, for Stevenson seemed to ha-vs hit a popular chord. "Hide somebody, put the spotlight on Blakesley. not on others, is the aim of the state In this case," said the lawyer. "Anybody knows there is someone else in this case, that there was a conspiracy." Here District Attorney Tongue ob jected, and the Portland attorney turned bis attention to Quick, terming the County Treasurer the Sphynx who told only what be wanted to tell, not vouchsafing any testimony on the dia mond drills referred to la the alleged extortionate letter or half of the spoils the message said he was to get. Other Reputations at Stake. "E. E. Quick Is on trial here as well s Elakesely." continued the lawyer. "Why convict Blakesley and let his partner go. And Prescott, the man wltu political ambitions who admitted fath ering a 'phony' petition for a liquor li cense his skirts are scorched the same as Quick's. Mr. Bagley referred to Quick's fallings. One of his failings was that he got off the stand without telling all the truth." Attorney Stevenson then subjected the handwriting experts to a fiery flow of denunciation, saying they were simply witnesses, prompted to interest them selves in the case by the allurement of big fees, u the defense, said the law yer, had the wealth of Columbia County behind It as had the state. It, too, could have summoned them. Citing .It as proof that the .testimony of experts in chirography is of little mo ment. S. A. D. Puter's book on land frauds as shattering similar testimony was referred to by the attorney. Puter, he said, after he "got good" said the expert penmen who testified In the Uni ted States Court were all wrong. Emma Watson, he said, was credited with hooks and curves made by Marie Ware and Horace MeKlnley was blamed for pen strokes made by either of the wo men. "Toots" Blakesley. 32, If a day. and weighing more than 200 pounds, was re ferred to frequently by Attorney Steven son as "boy." "poor boy," "poor old Toots," and once as "Toots." a harmless pensioner, who borrowed much, is not gifted in abilities, is harmless though not much good." Defense Finds Flaws. Attorney Franey following his col league also seized upon the statement of the prosecution that there were a great many features In the case which it would not discuss. He hinted that the state was in fear of something and by its acts left a doubt as to whether others besides Blakesley were guilty or not guilty. "By the state's refusal to discuss these features." said Attorney Haney. "St. Helens will not know. Columbia County will not know, the state will not know." Attorney Haney then took the Jurors step by step over the entire case hardly raising his voice over the ordinary speaking tone. He assailed the indict ment particularly as insufficient and in turned whacked the handwriting experts as a force that testified because of fee Inducement. Hardly had Attorney Haney closed with Thank vou for your attention, gentle men." when District Attorney Tongue was on his feet and. in sonorous tones tal made the windows rattle, denounced the defense1 as unfair and Insinuating. Then, in still louder voice, he upbraided the defense for not bringing out the very testimony It accused the state of conceal ing. . "If the defense says there Is a con spiracy or plot In this case' he actually jelled. "I stsmp it as a lte." "I cast back the word." said Attorney Stevenson. Here District Attorney Tongues defl to the Portland attorneys to produce their proof of concealed evidence and con spiracy was uttered. District Attorney Tongue, after a re cess for dinner, dropped from the high est" tones he could force to a voice tiny enough to be almost a whisper, and con t.nued with that quietness to the end of h s argument. Prior to the issuance of Instructions by Judge Eakin, the eviderce ",;r day by Tom. Word, ex-BheruX oX Mult nomah County, and the testimony of T Grafton, Jailer under Word, was stricken out. The evidence concerned Jack Mc Carthy, ex-convict. Blakesley's allege! confederate, and was allowed simply as a preliminary examination, to be retained if found material and rejected if not prov ing a natural sequence of the ease on trial. Peculiar In the proceedings of today was the efforts of the state by testimony and in argument to prove Jack McCarty a myth, a "bogie" man, a blind. Jack MeCartv was indicted with "Toots" Blakesley. an action by the state, and one of the early steps by the prosecution in the trial was to prove McCarty actual--4,An.A oni the nrima mover of the whole alleged blackmail scheme to mulct County ireasiuer court's ruling of today cutting Tom Word's testimony off abruptly, as far as the prosecution was concerned, expunged McCarty from the state's plan of prose cution. No matter what the result of the jury s deliberations in the alleged blackmail case. "Toots" Blakesley's power as the county vote-getter for F.epublican candi dates is broken. For 12 years he named tickets and saw few fail. But since his trial falling off of his political prestige STATE, AFTER IDICTIG HIM, TRIES TO PROVE HIM A MYTH. .W V T 1 Jack McCarty, Co-IJefcndant la Blakesley Case. has been remarked, his former "old re liables" seemingly having deserted him to Join the forces of Sheriff White and Dr. Cliff, the new leaders since Blakesley's downfall. COOS BAY HIS FLIT YVAXTS MONEY SPENT ON JET TY, NOT DREDGING. Recommendations of Government Engineers Disappoint Business Men of Southern Port. MARSHTIELD. Or.. Oct. 22. (Special.) For the purpose of taking action re rarrilnr the Government work on the Coos Bay bar, a meeting of business men and members of the commercial bodies .-a- hoi.i this afternoon at the Chamber of Commerce. There has been a feeling of dissatisfaction regarding the recpm- mendation of the Government engineers for Improvement of1 the 'bar. The engineers recommended first that Congress, appropriate J5X1,000 for an ocean going dredge to clear the sand from the bar, and an annual appropriation or it. maintenance- As an alternative in case the dredging la not successful, it is recommended that there be an ap propriation of something ' over i:,ww.uoo for jetty Improvement. Dr.- J. T. McCormack, chairman of the meeting, presented the situation and ex- i i tti, noni Ho not want the bar dredged, because the sand will fill up as quickly! as it Is removed, but they do want the Jetty Improved, believing it Is the only way to mane aether the bar. . -t Some speakers thought that if the dredge appropriation was ofljected to, the Government might give nothing at all, as Congress, would not change from the engineers' recommendations. Others .ki.hi that thn best nlnn would be to go before the rivers and harbors com mittee of Congress with a aeiegaiion aim ask that Jetty work Instead of bar dredg ing be done. Some suggested that if the help of the Portland Chamber of Commerce was asked it would help-. Various means of getting the kind of appropriation desired ware discussed, and It was. finally de cided to appoint a committee of five to confer next Wednesday night with the Port of Coos Bay Commission and through that body bring to bear some pressure for a change in the arrangement as now outlined by the engineers.

RIDING CONTEST IS NOVEL Prineville Fair Supplies Exhibition or Early Day Scenes Before Ral'. roads and Prohibition En tered Interior Oregon. PT OEORflE PALMER Pl'TKAM. PRINEVILLE, Or., Oct. 22. (Special.) If there were nothing else to do Who would not be a buckeroo? Assuredly no one. At least not on bron cho day at Crook County's big Fair at Prineville, when the feature of features is the wild horse race, and the man with the "chaps" and spurs holds undisputed cen ter of the stage. Scientific track racing, stock Judging and even the Bend band, official music-makers at the county Beat, are superseded in popular interest by this exhibition of horsemanship as it prospered In the dnys of the open ranges, long be fore Crook County prohibition and Cen tral Oregon railroads were dreamed of. Each of the contestants led his broncho an hitherto unrldden animal, out upon the track In front of the crowded grand stand. After sundry wild rushes, tangles and dust-throwing, tho prospective riders, aided by the one assistant thfe manage ment allowed them, got their "horses" down, '.'hog-tied" and saddled. Then, at a word from the judges the trouble be gan and the rearing, bucking brutes ca vorted madly in every direction except the one desired, with their riders in vast un concern, keeping the closest sort of con nection with their saddles and in the meantime spurring and quirting vigorous ly whenever their mounts seemed inclined to quiet down. And always the crowd, for the most part good riders and good judges themselves, applauded, bantered and criticised i the "buckeroos" with whole-souled lack of reserve. "Scratch the little devil, give him the quirt there, you with the hat!" "Say, that's the stuff for me; Just notice the kid, riding slick (without tied stirrups) and giving tho bronc all that's coming to him!" And in the meantime, the "bad" horses had been forced around the track, always "pitching" and, for the most part, going sidevusa far more than in the way nature Intended them to progress. Despite the praiseworthy attempts of the bronchos to rid themselves of their riders, not a fall occurred, and every contestant went "un der the wire" without serious mishap. Lloyd Taney, a local "buckeroo," was declared the winner of the $100 purse, with Melvin Crane, another. Prinevlller. as taker of the second money. The decision, by the way, was based upon the horse manship displayed throughout the con test, and not necessarily upon the actual winning of the race. In the morning, preceding the broncho race, occurred the judging of horses. In the Clyde stallion class, McGregor got the blue ribbon, with Caesar first in the Belgians, and President Deliroux second, the latter being a trophy winner at sev eral state fairs. The exhibit of blooded horses is said to be the finest yet seen In Central Oregon, and well illustrates the ever-growing Interest taken by the ranchers and range-owners In breeding a better class of animals. During the last season alone several imported stallions of high pedigree have been brought to the county. The first of the afternoon races, of three furlongs, with a purse of $10), went to "Brandy," who is probably the most pop ular horse In the meet. Tho six-furlong race was won hy "Confederate," who took it handily from "Yankee Boy," al though considerable money had been put on the latter against the field. With the last race went a purse of $200. SEATTLE SANK DOPED ALLEGED FORGER SAID TO HAVE SECURED BIG SUMS. Bogus Wheat Warehouse Certificates Are Deposited on Security by Bennington. SEATTLE, Oct. 22.

Be"nnIngton told the bank ers whom he approached that the farm ers around Ritzvllle were dissatisfied with the prices they had been getting for their wheat and had decided to handle their own output. He described an association that had been organized at Ritzvllle for the pur pose of carrying the wheat and asserted that warehouses had been built and that these' contained the grain of all farmers In the association. It was upon ware house certificates Issued by this alleged pool that he proposed to make a loan.

BAKER CITT, Or., Oct. 22. (Special.) According to men who have resided here for many years, this city is entering the fiercest munioipal campaign of its hlB tory The issue Is whether the city water system shall be improved by selection of what is known as the "upper" or "lower pipeline.

The "upper" line is advocated by those who want to use the present system, repaired and Im proved with a concrete or vitrified pipe in the mountains, while the "lower" line is supported by those who want a differ ent route from the mountains to the res ervoir adopted. These people assert that the distance is shorter, that a better grade is to be found and that use of a syphon, which is necessary on the upper line, can be dispensed with. They also claim that the cost of construction will be cheaper. Some of these contentions are denied by those opposing the lower line, and as a result Mayor Pollman. has deposited a certified check for J500 in the First Na tional Bank to be used in paying the ex penses of any reliable hydraulic engineer to examine the line and make surveys, provided the measurements and estimates of the present city officials are found In correct.
