TIL FOR MORSE
;Writ of Error Now Banker's
Lasf Chance to Avoid 15
Year Sentence.
WIFE IS DEEPLY AFFECTED
Prisoner Ought Aot to Expect Jury
of Teetotalers, Judge Says.
Heading of Newspapers
Not Disqualification.
NEW YORK. Dec. 29. Only a tech
nical legal shadow now stands between
Charles W. Morse, banker and one-time
tee king, and a 15-year sentence in
the Federal prison at Atlanta.
Judge Hough, In the United States
Circuit Court, today denied his motion
for a new trial, but Martin W. Little
town, his counsel, announced that one
more stand would be taken. Tomor
row he will move In the Circuit Court
for a writ of error. If this Is denied,
Morse will begin the new year serving
his sentence for violation of the Na
tional banking laws, the Supreme Court
of the United States having previously
-efused to Interfere in the case. Mr.
Littleton's recent application for a new
trial for Morse was made on the
ground that the Jury was improperly
ruarded and that some of the Jurors
drank; to excess during the trial.
Protest Comes Too Late.
With respect to this charge, the court
holds that the fact that the jurymen
were In the custody of secret service
men Instead of regular leputy Marshals
was well known to both counsel and
Jurors when the trial began. The court
also notes that more than a year has
elapsed since Morse was convicted and
sentenced, and that a writ of certiorari
has been denied by the "United States
Supremo Court.
"So far as the records of these affi
davits shows." says Judge Hough's
memorandum, "there was nothing con
cealed or secretive about the appoint
ment of these men. and it has not been,
urged that merely because they were
net regularly on the Marshal's staff
they were not eligible for selection."
As to the drinking charges Judge
Hough says:
"Legislation must advance a good
deal before a prisoner may claim to
be entitled to a Jury of teetotallers in
New York, at all events."
Jurors Not Teetotallers.
Judge Hough points out'that now.
by direction of the court, the Jurors
may be permitted "to lead their usual
lives," and that the affidavits sub
mitted by Morse's counsel showed
merely that ill the entire trial only
L'O bottles of liquor and some individual
drinks had been consumed by the Jury.
"And it is not pretended tiiat anyone
was at all intoxicated." adds the court.
All parties agreed, the memorandum
continues, that no liquor was served
to the Jurors after the case had been
given to them.
"The same Juror who has depdsed
for the defendant as to the drinking
habits of the Jury," says the court,
"is by the defendant alleged to have
been himself so sodden with drink as
to be- Incapable of 'clear, cool and
undisturbed judgment." "
Reading Papers Not Grounds.
As to the charges that the Jurors
were permitted to read newspapers
with "hostile" accounts of the trial,
Judge Hough said:
This case was dull: it took a long
time to exhibit necessary preliminary
facts; newspaper accounts were incom
plete and incorrect, but there is no
evidence that they were so hostile or
biased as even probably to affect, the
minds of men -quite able to perceive
their incompleteSioss and incorrectness.
lrnless all reading of dally Journals by
Jurors Is unlawtul, this point requires
no further consideration."
Mrs. Morse, who has remained con
stantly loyal to her husband through
out his fight tor freedom. Is greatly
upset by the turn of affairs today. If
he must serve his sentence. It Is said
that she probably will accompany him
South. Mr. Littleton's motion for a
writ of error on Judge Hough's de
cision, however, acts as a temporary
stay of execution.
NICKELL MUST SERVE TIME
fack9oiiYillc, Or., Man. Guilty of
land Fraud, Denied Pardon.
WASHINGTON. Dec. 29. Efforts ap
pear iiopeless to obtain a pardon for
Charles Nickell. of Jacksonville, Or.,

The Department of Justice announces

tention. SILETZ SETTLERS PROTEST
(Continued From First Pate.)
nd when every special agent of the
Interior Department felt that his pro
motion would likely follow a path of
adverse reports. Ordinarily patents
would have been issued without ques
tion, and we will see patents issued in
the future with no better showing
made, and I venture to say that those
who are Jumping and contesting these
claims unless some relief is secured
from Congress will secure patents, and
with much less showing than was raaOo
by the original entrymen.
Relief Must Come Soon. .
"As you are all well aware relief
must come at once or it will be too late.
claim-Jumpers are flocking daily to the ,
Silet and every claim will be Jumped, j
Since it appears that the department
has a friendly ear for these claim- !
.lumpers, it Is only a rjuestion of time
until every original entryman on the
Sileti will be down and out.
Judge W. P. Veils, of Halsey. was
made temporary chairman and William
.KIIardy, temporary secretary.
IColief Bill Asked.
A resolution committee of seven was
appointed and the following resolutions
drafted and adopted:
"Whereas, the Department of the In
terior has been for a number of years,
and la now. refusing patents to home
steads In what was formerly known as
' a part of the Sileta Indian reservation
in this state, and
"Whereas, the refusal to issue these
patents has attracted attention and ln
i ited hundreds of contests which arc
causing even the most worthy home
steaders endless litigation, annoyance and
t-xpense. and
"Whereas, Oswald West who is about
to leave for Washington. D. C, on of
ficial business for the State of Oregon,
is fully advised as to conditions as they
now exist In. the Siletz country, be it
"Resolved, tnat he be requested to
present the matter to our Representatives
and Senators in Congress and to Im
press upon them 'the importance and
necessity of making a united and Immedi
ate demand for relief, and that he lend
them his assistance in. preparing a bill
which, when passed by Congress, will
bring Justice and relief to the patient
and long-suffering homesteaders on the
Siletz.".
"It Is up to the settlers to get to
gether and perfect an organization for
the protection and advancement of
their interests and officers should be
chosen who should keep in touch with
the homesteaders, hear their troubles
and keep our delegation at Washing
ton well prodded up. If you all pull
together and put up a good stiff fight
you are bound to win."
The resolutions are signed by Ferris
A. Lucas, William McHardy, Mrs. S. C.
Dyer. Lee Smith, L. M. Gilbert. Chester
V. Hare, P. A. Finseth and Ira Lowe.
The affidavits prepared by the home
steaders recite hardships undergone by
the settlers In their efforts to create
homes in the wilderness. A permanent
organization was effected by the elec
tion of P. A. Finseth as president and
William McHardy secretary. These of-'
fleers will represent the homesteaders
in their efforts to Induce Congress to
take action. A resolution was passed
thanking the press for its support.
PORTLAND DUO CAUGHT
t
HIMMEIiP.UlB JEWEL THIEVES
TAKEN AT PHILADELPHIA.
Man and Woman Who Committed
Bold Robbery Here Had $62 0 0
When Searched.
PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 29. Samuel L.
Levine. alias Samuel Wise, 28 years old,
and Minnie Kester, 30 years old, were
arrested today charged with being im
plicated in several robberies at Port
land, Or.
When searched $3500 in cash and
Jewelry valued at more than $2 700 was
found. It is said they came to this
c.lty from -Portland December 26.
The apprehension of Samuel Levine.
alias Wise, and Minnie Kester by the
Philadelphia authorities was at the- in
stigation of the local police. The
couple are wanted In this city on the
charge of entering and burglarizing the
apartments of M. Himmelfarb, 680 H
First street, on November 25 last. They
secured $1200 worth of Jewelry and dia
monds. ,
After the theft Levine and the woman
fled from the city. The detectives were
placed on their trail. Captain of De
tectives Moore learned of their destina
tion on their eastward flight.
The robbery of the Himmelfarb
apartments was one of the cleverest
on record in the annals of local police
history. Both Levine and the woman,
who posed as his wife, learned of the
assortment of jewelry possessed by the
Himmelfarbs. They called at the Him
melfarb apartments and under the guise
of knowing relatives of their hosts in
distant states were welcomed as visit
ors. Their friendship ripened with re
peated calls. This subterfuge brought
to light the hiding place of the jewelry
to the woman. After this was learned
the robbery was perpetrated when Le
vine and the woman sent Mrs. Himmel
farb -downtown on a fool's errand. In
hrrjltbsence they stole the Jewelry.
Two months previous to tho recent
robbery, Levine fared in another police
escapade when he stole $2100 from a
eafety deposit-box possessed by the wo
man now under arrest with him. Levine
became Infatuated with a woman of the
underworld here while he resided with
Minnie Kesten. He secured possession of
the keys to the safety -deposit vault he
held in the Security Savings & Loan Bank
here. A few hours before he arranged to
flee from the city with his Inamorata he
visited the vaults and extracted the en
tire contents possessed by the Kesten wo
man. A warrant was issued for his ar
rest, but Levine returned to Portland un
knowingly and replaced $3u00 in the
safety vault. He then effected a settle
ment with the woman now under arrest
with him and she annulled the warrant
charging him with the stealth of her
savings'.
Officere will be sent after the couple
to Pbiladephla next week.
$750,000 MADE IN COTTON
lo rt land Men Disregard Government
Figures, and Win.
Portland men whose information as to
the- Texas crop of cotton was better than
that furnished by the United States Gov
ernment through the Bureau of Crop
Statistics of the Department of Agricul
ture have made profits of J750.000 since
last Spring. They bought cotton outright,
beginning at SH to 9 cents, and have been
disposing of their holdings recently be
tween 35 and 16 cents.
It began when a Portland man who
haa connections in Texas received word
that the crop in that state would be
much lighter than generally was believed.
Texas Is regarded as the pivotal state
in the cotton situation, and the Govern
ment reports from there at the sam
time were bearish in the extreme. The
Portland man disregarded the Govern
ment's statistics and bought heavily. He
told his friends, and they bought, too.
Two are said to have netted $75,000 be
tween them Profits of $60,000 and 550,000,
in round figures, are reported in two
other Instances. It is said that the wholo
number of Portland men who took profits
is not far from 150.

NEW DEFENDER
Sir Horace Plunkett, of Ire
land, Praises
Forester.
ALSO SAYS HILL GREAT MAN
America Should Follow AdTlce of
Railroad Magnate and Improve
Farming Methods and Quit
Speculating, Says He.
NEW YORK. Dec. 29. Gilford Pin
chot today found support In his contro
versy with Secretary Ballinger from an
unexpected quarter. Speaking before
the Economic and Historical Associa
tion. Sir Horace Plunkett. of Dublin,
who has brought about almost a rural
revolution in Ireland and .who Is said
to know more about the resources of
the United States than 90 per cent of
her own citizens, said:
"I greatly regret that I have Just re
ceived a telephone message from Mr.
Pihchot saying that pressing business
keeps him away. I must decline to en
ter into any discussion, but I should
like to defend Mr. Pinchot as a remark
able public servant. He is not only a
man who is doing his work with a
great affection for Wt. but he is trying
as well to broaden his administrative
position."
J. J. Hill Great Man, Says Irishman.
Sir Horace expressed surprise that
the opinion repeatedly uttercl by J. J.
Hill had nof been better heeded in
this country. He thought perhaps it
is because we were so much interested
In trusts and in, municipal regenera
tion. "I see a rapidly-increasing cost of
living, he said. "At the end of a cen
tury, as Mr. Hill has told you, there will
be a vast importation of foodstuffs' into
America if your farming methods are
not growing better.
"Such a situation calls for urgent action
by Congress and by State Legislatures.
As an alien I have no right to say what
such action should be. but if I may not
prescribe, I may describe.
Farmer Today Is Speculator.
"The system of agriculture in the cen
tral West, or that part of it settled 30
years ago, is the most wasteful I ever
saw. The so-called farmer is not a
farmer, but a land speculator. He went
into the country knowing that the land
was sure to rise in value. So he bought
all the land he could and then robbed the
land to meet his obligations until he could
realize his eventual sure profits from a
sale.
"There has got to be a change. I be
lieve there will come In this country co
operation between farmers the plan long
ago forced upon .the farmers of older
countries by the competition of the then
virgin soils of America.
"In Ireland, farmers are getting together-
for their own good and for the
good of the eountry. and they 'are making
a .new industrial Ireland.-'

FULL TIME IS REQUIRED
Credit for Soldiers' Service Not
Given in New Land Law.
OLYMPIA. Wash.. Dec. 29. (Special.)
Scores of Civil War veterans who have
located on 320-acre homesteads author
ized under the new double area law will
be disappointed to learn that an unof
ficial opinion received hero today by John
lAwrenre holds that the old soldiers'
homestead law, giving credit for service
against residence on the claim, does not
apply to the new entries.
Under the old 160-acre homestead law,
a soldier would receive credit for resi
dence equal to his service in the field.
The new double homestead law makes
provision for certain cultivation each of
the five years and the department holds
that while the time credit might apply,
the annual five years' cultivation Is man
datory, so that no soldier can prove up
until five years after settlement.
Mr. Lawrence formerly was a Land
Office official and took the subject up
with the Washington officials on behalf
of some soldier entrymen. He has asked
Senator Piles to introduce a bill to amend
the law to give the veterans credit for
service time on the new claims.

Angeles, of his appointment of Holz
heimer to go to Los Angeles, and of
the charges that Holzheimer and C. B.
