EVIDENCE AGAINST
WOAIAN STRONGER
Both Jesse Webb and Mrs.
Kersh Indicted for First
Degree Murder.
BUYING OF TRUNK PROVED
Testimony of Bellboy That Johnson
Was Alive at 3 A. 31. Adds New
Phase Early Trial Is Re
garded as Possible.
Indictments for murder in the first de
gree were returned by the grand jury
at 6 o'clock yesterday against Jesse Webb
and Carrie Kersh for the killing: of W. A.
Johnson, after a whole day spent In
hearing: testimony.
The Indictments recite that on June
20 Jesse Webb and Carrie Kersh killed
W. A. Johnson deliberately and with pre
meditated malice by "striking:, beating,
cutting and wounding him on the head
and body with a. club, blackjack or other
Instrument to the grand Jury unknown,
end by choking, strangling and suffocat
ing: him and by Inflicting wounds upon
the head and body of which he then and
there died."
Arraignment of the prisoners will take
place before Judxe Morrow at 10 o'clock
this morning, and unless the attorneys
for the defense a.k for further time the
trial probably will follow speedily. The
IMfitrict Attorney's office declares that
It Is ready to begin the trial at any mo
ment. Developments which tend to fasten a
principal's role upon the woman, Carrie
Kersh, came out yesterday In a state
ment made by Jesse I-onr, the bellboy at
the New Grand Central Hotel, who knew
of the ordering of the new trunk. Ac
cording to Long, the trunk' was ordered
by the woman some time before Johnson
was killed, and the boy Insists that John
eon came to his death considerably later
than was thought at first.
Long was cautioned that this point was
of the greatest materiality ajid that he
must be sure that he was right. Never
theless, he adhered to his statement. He
eaid that he was in room 109 close to 3
o'clock. The two trunks previously owned
by Webb and ilrs. Kersh were standing
in the room undisturbed and their con
tents had not been removed. There was
no clothing scattered about the floor, as
was the case later. Johnson was in the
room, deeply Intoxicated and leaning
against the wall, but was plainly alive
and uninjured.
Prior to that time, the boy said, Mrs.
Kersh had ordered and received the new
trunk, telling him that she and Webb
were going to make a new distribution
f their effects. It was after this that
the bell in room 109 rang and Long went
up and saw Johnson alive in the room
and the trunks undisturbed.
Further suspicion is thrown upon Mrs.
Kersh by her first statement that she
had nothing to do with the buying of
the trunk and that It had been ordered
,(by Johnson. She was confronted by
salesmen from two trunk houses as the
woman who, accompanied by a little boy,
had appeared at their stores and asked
prices on trunks. She . then admitted
tmylng the trunk. This inconsistency, to.
gether with the bellboy statement. Is
taken by the authorities to be a strong
link In the chain of evidence against the
woman.
Long fixes the time when he last saw
Johnson alive at about 3 o'clock. It was
about 5 o'clock, he said, when Webb
came down and ordered the trunk re
moved to the station. Some time within
those two hours Johnson was killed. It
was some time between those hours that
Mrs. Tllley, wife of the hotel proprietor,
went Into Johnson's room and saw him
lying with his head in the curve of his
arm. He was undoubtedly dead at that
time.
MURDER VICTIM F. C. HEX AGE ?
Seattle Woman Believes Body Found
In Trunk Was- Husband's.
SEATTLE, Wash.. June 24. (Spe
cial.) Mrs. Minnie Henage, of Ballard,
a suburb of this city, and who resided
In the same neighborhood with Mrs. B.
"W. Kersh for several months, until the
latter's disappearance In March, today
Informed Deputy Prosecuting: Attorney
A. G. McBrlde of her belief that the
Victim of the Portland trunk murder
was her husband. Franklin C. Henage,
an assistant superintendent on a local
etreetcar line.
On March 3 Mrs. Henage went to the
Deputy Prosecuting Attorney and ob
tained a complaint for non-support
against her husband, saying that he
was neglecting her and that he was
Infatuated with Mrs. Kersh. Coinci
dent with this complaint. Mrs. Kersh
disappeared and on the following day
Henage also vanished. His wife has
not heard directly from him since that
time. At that time she informed the
attorney that Henage, who had gone
by the names ot W. A. Johnson and
Frank Williams, was planning to elope
With Mrs. Kersh.
Mrs. Henage Is anxious to obtain a
poMtlve Identification of the dead man,
and if the body is that of her husband,
ehe will make a fight for the $1900
found on Mrs. Kersh at the time of her
arrest.
Mrs. J. Cameron, Mrs. Henage's sis
ter, says Henage sold several pieces' of
property here shortly before his dis
appearance and believes the money
Jound on Mrs. Hersh was received from
these sales.
Mr. and Mrs. Henage, according to
the wife's story, were once before sep
arated by the husband's Infatuation for
Mrs. Hersh. At that time. May, 1909.
Henage paid his wife $25 a month for
her support and continued this until
November, 1909, when he abandoned
her entirely, devoting all his time and
money to Mrs. Kersh.
"The Seattle woman is wrong in her
contentions that she was my brother's
wife," said Walter Johnson, the brother
of the murdered man, when confronted
with the claims of Mrs. Henage last
night.
"I know for an absolute certainty
that Will, my brother, was married but
once," he continued. "His wife died
four years ago from tuberculosis at
Lanesford, N. D., where, my parents
reside. Since that time He never came
West except for a short visit with me
at Spokane, two years ago. There Is
no doubt but what the woman in Seat
tle is mistaken."
The local police are satisfied that
Johnson's statements concerning his
brother are true, but will make a thor
ough Investigation of Mrs. Henage's
claims. -

C. H. Wilson.

containing biographical data concerning.
Mrs. M. E. Garrettson, his sister-in-law,
who was killed near Los Angeles with Mr.
Elmore tn an automobile accident.
Mr. Wilson married Mrs. Garrettson'a
sister. He is well known as a man of
character and standing In the West,
having been at one time In the employ of
Marcus Daly at Butte. He was also
one time financial manager for Gay
Lombard, of this city, at Tekoa, Wash.
Mr. Wilson's statement follows:
"I have known Mrs. Marion E. Garrett
son since she was a young girl.' Her
father was R. P. Bateman, a prominent
citizen of Sheridan, Mont. He was the
owner of that townsite and 11.000 acres of
land adjoining It. He and his wife were
members of that sturdy group of pio
neers that settled Montana, and they
were for years among the leaders, indus
trially and socially. In that state. They
always maintained an open and gen
erous hospitality that made their home
a center of the Montana social life.
"Mrs. Garrettson was refined, cultured
and accomplished. She was a trained
musician, both vocal and instrumental.
She possessed a mild, gentle disposition,
which gave her a multitude of friends in
the very best circles. Seven years ago
ehe and Purdy R. Garrettson were mar
ried. Mr. Garrettson is the Western rep
resentative of the dry goods house of
. Lindecke. Warner & Schermler.
"Mr. Garrettson always provided liber
ally for his wife, even after they be
came estranged, and never und-ar any
circumstances was she in the lodging
house or apartment-house business. She
made her home, from .time to time, as
suited her convenience. In Portland and
in San Francisco; and when in the latter
city always made her home with her
sister, Mrs. Fred M. Branch, whose hus

and Mrs. Garrettson was never in Astoria
but once and that was when she passed
through on her way to Seaside. In sev
eral newspaper reports her identity was
confused with a member of a different
family."
HUSBAND'S NAME KEPT
JUDGE PERSUADES WOMAN OF
61, WEDDED 44 YEARS.
Thirteen Decrees Are Granted, Only
One Being on Complaint of Hus
band in Circuit Court.
There were Just 13 of them, and only
one a man. Moreover, it was Friday.
But Circuit Judge Gatens made every
oneof them happy by granting divorces
from erring spouses and finished the
grist before dinner time.
In only one case, that of Mrs. Hattie
Troxel, was there a disappointment.
That was only temporary. "She had
asked for a divorce from James Troxel
and for the restoration of her maiden
name, Hattie Myers. But she was 61
years old, so the judge persuaded her
to keep the name she had. She said
she wasn't particular which she had.
She was married to Troxel in Grant
County, Wisconsin, in April, 1868, but
in 1904 he deserted. The judge gave
her a clear title to her property in
Laurelwood.
Sue M. Bradnock obtained a decree
because George E. Bradnock never
spoke to her about general matters ex
cept when necessity compelled, and
preferred the company of other women
to hers. He took no interest in her
comfort, she said, and after bearing
with it until November, 1907, she took
their child and left him.' Since then.
she said, she has been obliged to de- '
pend for support upon the charity of i
friends, although her husband earns'
$200 a month. They were married at
Brunswick, Ga., July 12, 1893.
To be knocked across a cnair by a
blow in the face from the fist of her
husband was the experience of Mel-
via J. Dilworth, according to the story
she told Judge Gatens. She was mar
ried to Fred E. Dilworth at Akron, O.,
October 22, 1904. She said also that at
one time, while she was undergoing
an operation, her husband attempted
to enter the room to thrash the physi
cian, believing Mrs. 'Dilworth and the
j .
"
properly.
Maude A. Anthony said that Frank
C. Anthony, her husband, was serving
time on the rockplle for carrying con
cealed weapons. She said he made her
face black and blue with blows and
threatened to shoot her. She married
him tn Vancouver, Wash., November
18, 1907. The Judge gave her the cus
tody of their 2-months-old daughter.
August J. Wolff would go for days
without speaking to his wife, accord-
lr.g to her statement In court yes-
terday. Clara A. Wolff, the wife, said
also that he deserted her and went
to Seattle In 1908, buts that she took
him baek'and forgave him on his prom
ise to do better. He finally ordered
her away, from home and she left a
year ago. They were married at Ba
tavla. N. Y., December 27, 1892.
Frederick A. Hope Fattison took the
drink cure about 12 years ago, and
until recently was a reformed drunk
ard, said his wife, Lavinia M. Patti
sbn. But of late he has been -spending
his entire earnings for liquor, com
pelling his wife to support herself and
their three children by the sales from
a store at Lents. She told Judge Ga
tens her troubles, and a divorce was
granted today, with a clear title to the
property at Lents, on which the store
is located. She was married to Pattl
son at Waverly, S. D., August 20, 1882.
"A ne'er do well."- This is the way
Alice Mary Nott described her hus
band. Samuel Nott. She was married
to him August 9, 1907, at Cranbrook,
B. C.
Emma R. Werner also complained of
a husband who will not work. She
said she had worked tor the last 14
years as a nurse to support herself
and their two children, John J. Werner
at last deserting her. She was mar
ried to him at Wommelsdorf, Pa., Feb
ruary 19. 1883.
Desertion was the ground for the
following divorces: . "
Adele E. Schopff from Max E. Schopff,
married February 23, 1906; Minnie Mar
tins from John Martins, married Al
pena, jyiich., in September, 1881; W. A.

Surprises galore tinged with unusual in
terest the fight in the boy Mayoralty
contest yesterday. At no time since the
voting began has there been such keen
and unabated interest in the campaign
as at present.
The voting will close at 10:30 o'clock,'
Monday morning.
With 63 candidates, each with a goodly
following. In the race, it is now assum
ing proportions undreamed of by those
who conceived the idea here. Every boy
in town is following the results of each
da's counting of the ballots deposited,
and enthusiasm la at high pitch.
"Bud" Kribs and Sammy Weinstein,
the newsboys' choice, are having a grand
old scrap for the leadership. Kribs
forged to the front yesterday, leaping
forward from fourth place. This was the
day's big surprise, as It was believed the
little newsboy would maintain his good
lead for a day or so.
Many Votes Cast.
The number oS. votes cast yesterday
speaks volumes for the interest which has
been aroused in Portland over the event.
"Bud" Kribs was in fourth place, with
2775 votes, Thursday. Yesterday the
number of ballots cast for him put him
in the initial position, with 9926 votes to
his credit. Sammy Weinstein is running
a close second, with 9432 votes after his
name. Sammy almost forgot to sell his
"poipers" yesterday, so imbued with the
campaigning spirit had he become.
Don Tarpley maintained his prestige in
good shape, although he dropped to third
place. He gained nearly 1000 votes,
which is-vs.surely a creditable showing.
Harold Meier Is playing tag with Don,
for he doesn't allow his competitor to get
more than one notch ahead of him.
George Colton made an appreciable gain
coming up from sixth to fifth place. His
friends of the Portland Academy are
handling his campaign with hearty vim.
"Dark Horse" Looked For.
Moses Sachs, who jumped from 11th to
fifth place two days ago, is still far from
being out of -the running. He dropped
back to-sixth in line yesterday, but it
was because of the unusually heavy vot
ing done for the two leaders. Ho In

PATROLMAN CUPID'S AGENT
Policeman Murphy ' Settles Lovers
Quarrel Out of Court.
Patrolman J. J. Murphy was desig
nated by Deputy District Attorney
Hennessy as special referee to ""settle
a case of assault and battery yesterday
morning and came out of the affair
with flying colors and with the wed
ding bells ringing: to celebrate his deci
sion. Charles Rail was accused of beating
Minnie Burleigh, granddaughter of his
prospective mother-in-law. Murphy
told Hennessy that the people lived on
his beat, and he believed he could
bring the matter to an amicable ar
rangement 'out of court. The trouble
arose through Rail's courtship of Mrs.
Burleigh's daughter, Mrs. Willis. Mur
phy soon reached a settlement ana an
nounced that his decision was that
the . parties should be hitched." He
appeared In police court waving a mar
riage certificate and the court accepted
his decision and dismissed the case.
The persons concerned live at. 169 East

ICKETS MUST KEEP COOL
Judge Bennett Fines Striking Team
ster for Losing Temper.
'No man more, needs to keep a cool
head than a striker on picket duty,"
said Judge Bennett yesterday in pass
ing sentence on P. R. Mahan, a team
ster, accused ofhittins; a strikebreaker.
I am sure that your organization does
not approve of your action and I believe
that it will discipline you for losing
your temper."
Mahan is the first striking teamster
to be prosecuted for a violation of the
law in that capacity. He admitted that
he had followed an elderly man who
was dri.ving a team and had lost his
emper in arguing the merits or the
trlke with htm. Special Officer Bouck,
who made the arrest, testified that
Mahan had struck the driver one blow.
The incident occurred at Sixth and
Glisan streets at 7 o'clock Thursday
