SNYDER KILLING RECALLED Tragedy Near lVethany la 188 I nds Robberies In Valley County. i lriLLSBORO. Or, Feb. 21. (Special.) Testimony In a Pt. Louis court last week forcibly brought to mind a tragedy which occurred near Bethany, a little hamlet situated between this place and Portland, six or seven years ago, when Carey Bnyder was shot and killed In a little copsa a few hundred yards distant from tha Bethany church. bnyder waa tbo son of B. M. Bnyder, a rich Kansas City banker, and he had been seat Wast by tha banker father, who took cars of him for years on tho remittance plan. Snyder operated In this section of Oregon for some time, aad lis and his confederates robbed several country banks and postofflcea. The. evidence, recalling the murder, which has never been solved, was la the case wherein the heirs of George A- Klmmfl. an Arkansaw City, Kan, banker, who suddenly dropped out of sight, sued an Insurance company for payment of a policy on his life. The star witness waa one John Boone Bwlnney, ex-convlct and train robber, aad he testified that In 1131 he met R. M. Snyder, the Kansas City bsnker. the latter telling htm he knew where $40,000 In gold was cached In Coos County, Oregon. Snyder, Swinnney said, gave blm $10e aad a letter ef Introduc tion to KlmmeL According to the story. Bwlnney, Klmmel. a man by the name of John son and Snyder, supposed to be the Carey bnyder. afterward m ordered at Bethany, went to Coos County, where they found a portion of the cache, taking ftOOO in gold. The search for tbe rest was abandoned, and Bwlnney swore that on their way back to Marsh field, Johnson fired at Klmmel, Pnyder, and the witness. killing KlmmeL Swlnney then testified that he killed Johnson, and that he and Snyder burled the two bodies In the wood a From bis testimony It appears that Swlnney INTEREST CENTERS ABOUT BIO DEBATE PLANNED AT EUGENE AQA1NS1 UNTVEBSITT OP UTAH. t : ' -Yi'Y " -A .

Never before In the his tory of debate at tha University of Oregon haa Interest been shown which compares with that awaiting ths contest Friday evening, when J. Karl Jones, of Newberg. and Peter C. Crockett, of Pendleton, will defend "The Judicial Recall" against a negative team sent by the University of Utah. The team frorn Utah was the only one to dim Oregon's forensic rscord last year Pacific Coast Lea am a debating championship and championship In In tercollegiate and Interstate oratory. Until last year the Mormon debaters had never won from the Oregon University representatives. Perhaps much of the Interest tn the coming argument Is traceable to tha circumstance that It will be attended a la Leap Tear, and that it will be followed by a Leap Tear dance, where the women of the university will have a golden opportunity to "do onto others as they would do unto you." No one, not even the spectator, will be admitted to the novelty dance unless debate tickets have been purchased. and Snyder came to Portland, and he stated on oath that Klmmel's grip, which waa to havs been given Mr a. Klmmel. was stolen from a Portland boarding-house. Those who ars convsrsant with the Snyder sffalr In this county believe that Carey Snyder was the one who came West on the alleged treasure hunt. Two men with unsavory records were here with Carey Snyder, when he lived on the ranch his father had given him. near klountalndale, and tha trio were together night and day. One called himself Oeorge Perry, and the other pasaed by the name of Rodgers, the latter, however, being known to but one or two here. Perry waa con sidered a dangerous man. and It Is thought here that Swlnney Is either the Perry who was operating here with Snyder. Jr.. or else he ta ths one known as Rodgers. It Is significant that the Forest Orove bank was robbed of about 14000. the emount alleged to have been "found" by the witness shortly before Carey Snyder was killed In this county.

A comic tragedy In which a Chinaman of Portland and a young ne gro woman, attired in an old rose-colored suit, topped off with a red bat. were actors, was staged on the lawn of the county courthouse, with the em ployes of the building and callers as the audience, when a vain attempt was made to obtain a marriage license. The super waa another negro, at least six feet tall, who waa to have been the witness, had tha Chinaman not flown from behind an evergreen tree, where he was left by the young woman In old rose.

Taking the native of the Orient to the front of the yard, the negro lassie hid him behind a tree and. admonish ing him to remain under cover, she stalked down the street, the plumes In her hat fluttering In the breese. Witnesses must havs been hard to find, for It waa fully three hours be fore she returned with a tall man of her own race, who was willing to swsar that he knew both persons who were desirous of berng married. Oolng stealthily towards the tree, she peered behind It. but the Celestial was not there. He had become tired and had lost faith In the negresa, and said to the Sheriff aa he started down tho street, "She no catchem witness, ms catchem ferry go home. I guess she no come back.

Simpaon Responds to Mes sage, E . B. Piper Repeatinr Word to Diners Seattle nd Portland Join Bands. A new -spirit of the Northwest" was born at the weekly luncheon of the Portland Ad Club In the Multnomah on ao Hotel yesterday, when Joseph Blethen, of the Seattle Times, president of the Seattle Ad Club and president of the Golden Potlatch for 191t, expounded the doctrine of co-operation between the cities of ths Northwest to nearly 600 sd men and talked It over the long distance telephone from his seat at the table to Ernest S. Simpson, manag ing editor sf the San Francisco Call, in San Francisco 787 miles away. By unanimous voice, the club adopt ed a resolution pledging tbe support of the united Northwest to San Fran cisco's Panama-Paclfla Exposition In 1915. As It was "Telephone day" at the club, J. L. Tarnell, commercial manager of the Paclflo Telophone A Telegraph Company being chairn.sn of the meeting, and W. J. Phillips, divi sion commercial superintendent bolr.g ons of the speakers, the club Instructed Mr. Blethen to transmit the resolution to Mr. Simpson. Response Is Telephone.!. Connection waa readily made. At Mr. Simpson, seated In his office at Sen Francisco, repeated the message ever the wire, the words sounded clearly and distinctly In Mr. Blether's ear. In recognition of the fact that Mr. Simp son Is a nephew of Samuel L, Simpson. Oregon's famous post, and a "Journalist of whom the state haa reason to be proud," he was asked for a message In response. This he delivered over the telephone to Edgar B. Piper, manag ing editor of The Oregonlan and presi dent of the Portland Commercial Club, who repeated It aloud before the club members. Mr. Simpson's words were: "From the San Francisco Cnl', on be half of tbe Panama-Pacific Exposition, on behalf of the people of Ban Fran cisco, and especially and particularly on behalf of the San Franc'sco Call. I extend to the Portland anl iseattls Ad Clubs and to the United Northwest greeting. Speaker la Oregoalaau "It pleases me personally and it gives me particular pleasure to be the medium of exchange for the transmis sion of these welcome mossages, be cause I am a native son of your own Portland and your united Northwest. Additional pleasure arises from the fact that Charles W. Homlck. general manager of the Call, began hla career on the Paclflo Coast mors tit in a ctn tury ago In ths city where you are now assembled. The Call desire warmly and heartily to express appreciation of this cordial and grateful message of co-operation, also for this expression of support of our exposition. We shall count It as one of our greatest oppor tunities, when the exposition. Is opened, to receive and to welcome our brothers of the united Northwest. I hope that yon will so amend ths boundaries of your united Northwest to Include not only San Francisco, but all of Califor nia, May the Lord bless yon and pros per you In all your undertakings." Cheers Seat Over Wire Mr. Simpson having flnlthed speak ing, three rousing "Hip" Hip Hooraya" were given, so that hs could hoar them over ths wire. "Commercial Club" Chapman. who waa the welcome" gueat of the club, prefaced his introduction of Mr. Blethen by recounting the fact that In former years the Seattle newspaper took delight In casting reflections upon Portland and that the Portland papers constantly took occasion to ridicule and belittle Seattle. He declared that the Northwest now is progressing un der a new spirit and that Mr. Blethen la one of the chief exponents of that spirit. As Mr. Blethen arose to speak a chorus of Ad Club Voices Sang ths fol lowing verse, composed by C F. Berg and set to the tune of the Elks' song, "Portland Wants You,"" the Initial let ter of each line being in bold type to form an acrostic spelling the word "Potlatch." P stands for Portland fair, Beattle'a friend you aee; O la tor Or iron, your Bister state is she; T tor the tlee that bind; let friendship ae ear toaat; L far the love we bear our North Faclfle Coaat ; A starnle for Ad Man strong. Seattle and Portland town; T fee tosetaar we atand. suited we'll be found; C for comradeship, the PoUateh and the Roae; H here'a te health end happiness where New Northwest Spirit growa Blethea Urges Haraaeny. Mr. Blethen's address waa a stirring appeal for united effort In the devel opment of the Northwest. Hs referred to the "two new crops" from which Portland and Seattle must depend upon for future prosperity. These crops ars ths "man on the acre" and the Summer tourist, he said. While he argued for- the develop ment of the united spirit, he Insisted that local pride and home enthusiasm need not be lost. "I would not give a rap." he said, "for a Portland man who would say to me, 'Joe Blethen, you have the beat town In the Northwest. Seattle Is a greater place than PortlauC "We should each do what we hon orably can to make our respective city the best In the Northwest but by doing that we need not pull down and destroy the other city. We need united effort, and neither of us can prosper without getting it from tbe other." Big Phone Gala Pfoted. The address of Mr. Phillips on "The Telephone" was replete with Interest ing information. He was cheered lusti ly when h- reported that Portland gained 17 per cent In the number of telephones tn use In 1111, giving It. a total of 14.271. Colonel C. E. S. Wood, announced as "our greatest orator, spoke In char acteristically humorous and phllosophlo manner on "The Mistakes of the Local Spirit." He pointed to the fact that the do nfall of Greece waa caused by rivalry between Athens and Bpana and that ths history of the world in proof of the fact that when cities stirt to fight smong tnemseives xne nation starts to decay. The selfish local spirit, he declared. Is inimical to the best in terests of the Northwest. He com mended highly the creation of "the new spirit of the Northwest."
