MONTESANO. Wash.. Oct. 4. (Spe
cial.) With tears streaming down his
face and between sobs which sffSok
his frame, John S. Creech, lumberman
of Raymond, who Is on trial for his
life for the shooting of City Detective
Frank J. Welch, today told the story
of the shooting, passing the entire aft
ernoon on the witness stand, under
going one of the severest cross-examinations
given any defendant in the
history of the Montesano court.
When court adjourned tonight Creech
was almost a nervous wreck and had
to be almost led from the courtroom.
so great had been the strain on him
during the day.
The day was a tearful one for both
the widow of the dead officer and also
for the Creech family, the women be
ing In tears a greater part of the time.
To the court and Jury Creech told
the following story:
Creech Explains Return.
"I came back to Aberdeen Monday
night because I wanted to collect some
money from the lumber agency, and,
after arriving in the city, passed an
hour with Mr. Tebbs before going to
my home. I walked several blocks out
of the way and, as I stepped on my
property, I thought I beard a rustle In
the bushes. As I had been warned by
Pacifia County officials that my life
was in danger owing to the recent la
bor troubles in Raymond, I was al
ways prepared and carried a gun.
"The noise startled me and, as I took
another step forward, someone flashed
a light In my face and a gun and or
dered me to stick up my hands. I
dodged and quickly drew my gun
from my hip pocket and fired twice.
The man fell and as he fell I said "Who
are you? I am an officer,' to which he
replied, 'I am an officer, too.' Then
I said: 'My God, why didn't you say
so and I would not have shot."
"Had you known - it was an officer
would you have killed him?" was the
question asked Creech by Attorney
Welsh.
Court Walts for Tears.
"My God, no," said Creech, and his
eyes filled with tears and he cried bit
terly for several minutes, the court
waiting until he regained his com
posure. Continuing, Creech said:
"I shot him because I thought .be
was a highwayman, and when I pulled
my gun believed that was my last day.
I was of the opinion that he fired Just
as I shot, which I have since learned
he did not.
"I never saw the man before and did
not know whether be knew me or not."
Creech denied that he had said he
expected to pass the remainder of his
days in Walla Walla for the crime and
that he did not lay the responsibility
for his act to his wife the night of the
shooting-.
mWtoiic Man" Expression Told.
He said that when he told the offi
cers he bad gotten the wrong man.
he meant that he had killed a police
man Instead of a highwayman as he
thought Welch was.
Another touching part of the day's
trial was when Mrs. Welch, wife of the
dead patrolman, took the stand and
told of the parting between her and
her husband. She said that Welch
came to her home on his way to the
Creech home and wanted his light. He
secured it, left the house and In a
moment came back and kissed her and
the baby "good-bye."
Friends who talked with Welch after
he had received the word to go to the
Creech home that evening said he did
not want to go, fearing something was
going to happen to him.
The defense's opening statement was
made by Attorney John T. Welch and
he said they would prove that Welch
was called to the Creech home earlier in
the evening because some - one had
opened a window and left a tile under
it so admittance could be gained to the
room. They propose to prove that
Welch came to the Creech home, went
Into every room In the house, thea
stepped out in the backyard and a few
minutes later -was killed.
New Light on Story.
The state has contended that Creech
came home and was prowling in the
back yard when Mrs. Creech tele
phoned for officers, but this places a
new light on the matter and gives
Creech a good chance for his freedom.
An effort was made early this morn
ing to impeach the testimony of Chief
of Police Templeman without avail, he
sticking to his first story concerning
his talk with Creech and no further
evidence was introduced against him.
The trial will not be ended until next
Monday or Tuesday as Prosecuting At
torney Campbell is not' through with
his cross-examination of Creech and

BLACK BEAR ROUTS

SABER DRILL AXGERS PET OF
FIRST CAVALRY.
Ripping, Tearing Sound Follows Up
rising of Bruin, Necessitating
Reclothing of Trooper.
SAN FRANCISCO. Oct. 4. (Special.)
A small black bear, the property of
Troop B, of the First Cavalry, and re
cently captured in the Sequoia National
Park, nut one section of the United
States Army to rout this afternoon.
A squad of recruits was going
through saber drill behind the cavalry
barracks. Ordinarily three bears from
Sequoia Park have undisputed posses
sion of the courtyard behind the bar
racks. Just then Trooper Fred Jamie
son swung his saber in a rear stroke
and caught a black bear right across
the bead with the flat of it.; It did not
hurt the bear any, but it did hurt his
feelings. He baa been used to the
kindest treatment since Joining the
Army.
' Trooper Jamieson was facing due
east, entirely unaware that he naa
struck the bear. The bear rose on
his hind legs, stretched his claws a
couple of times to see that they were
in good working order and then made
a swipe at Trooper Jamieson with both
feet. There was a ripping, tearing
sound and the entire west side of
Trooper Jamieson's trousers remained
In the bear's claws.
Without waiting for any orders
Trooper Jamieson made a leap toward
the barracks, and when he returned to
saber practice with a new pair of
trousers on the drill line was moved
forward beyond the reach of the Pre
sidio menagerie. T

Mr. McCormlck telegraphed to New

mand that the committee call Fred W.
Cpham, collector for the Republican
campaign fund, and ask him the names
of contributors and the amounts they
gave. I will probably have interest
ing things to tell the committee that
will be more valuable than anything
I can tell about the Roosevelt cam

Witness Says First Knowledge

SESSION IS . PICTURESQUE
Committee and Spectators Frequently
Moved to Laughter by Remarks.
Bliss and . McHarg Are
Warmly Defended.
WASHINGTON, Oct 4. Theodore
Roosevelt occupied the witness chair
three and a half hours today before
the Senate investigating committee, de
fending his Administration, himself and
his Cabinets against what he termed
"Infamous charges'' and "hearsay evi
dence." He appeared before the committee to
answer statements made in August by
John D. Archbold that the Standard
OH Company had given $100,000 to the
Republican campaign fund in 1904
under the impression that President
Roosevelt knew of and approved ac
ceptance of the contribution. Not only
did Colonel Roosevelt deny this, but
he put into the records a sweeping de
nial that he had ever solicited funds
from anyone while President; that any
money had been received by the 1904
campaign committee with an express
or Implied promise of favors from the
Administration; that excessive funds
had been used in his 1904 campaign or
in the 1908 campaign, or that money
ever had- been Improperly used In his
behalf. So far as he knew.
Harrhnan Asked Aid, T. R. Says.
In reference to the Harrlman fund
of $240,000. raised in 1904, Colonel
Roosevelt declared the statements, of
J. P. Morgan, George R. Sheldon end
others had fully corroborated his earllor
statements that this fund was raised
expressly for the New Tork state cam
paign and had not been solicited by
him for bis own support in the fight
for election that year.
There was not one word spoken by
Mr. Harrlman or by me having any
reference to any collection of funds for
the National campaign," he said, re
ferring to his interview with Mr. Har
rlman in October, 1904. , "On the con
trary, the request was from Mr. Har
rlman that Inasmuch as we had ample
funds for the National campaign and
as the National campaign was safe, we
could help him out in the state cam
paign." The sessions of the committee were
picturesque throughout. Colonel Roose
velt arrived at the committee room ten
minutes before the hour of opening.
His progress into the building was
marked with cheers from a throng that
surged through the corridors.
Colonel Sits on Platform.
Colonel Roosevelt was placed in a
chair on a little square platform, from
which h looked down upon the table
at which sat Senators Clapp, Oliver,
Pomerene and Paynter. William Loeb,
Jr., his former private secretary, now
Collector of Customs at New Tork. came
with him and occupied a seat at his
left. The ex-President turned repeat
edly to ask Mr. Loeb for facts and rec
ords; and at the end of -his testimony
Mr. Loeb himself took the stand to cor
roborate statements of Colonel Roose
velt. Expressions that brought laughter
from the committee and spectators in
terspersed the Colonel's remarks
throughout the day. Once he said:
"1 actually sent for, while I was
President, trust magnates, labor lead
ers. Socialists, John L. Sullivan, Bat
tling Nelson (there was a pause) and
Dr. Lyman Abbott."
White House Latcbatring Out.
This was In response to questions
as to the propriety of his sending for
E. H. Harrlman in 1904 to discuss mat
ters of legislation or campaign affairs.
"If I am elected President," he added,
"if Mr. Rockefeller or anyone else
wants to see me, I'll see .him."
Again when Senator Pomerene asked
if some corporations did not expect re
turns for their contributions, Colonel
Roosevelt declared emphatically':
"As a practical man of high ideals,
who has always endeavored to put his
Steals into practice, 1 think any man
who would believe that he would get
any consideration from making any
contribution to me, was either a
crook or a fool."
When the crowded committee room
was swept with a burst of applause,
the witness turned around and said:
"Stop that, please."
Asked whether the so-called "coal
trust" had contributed to his cam
paigns, he replied: "Jly dear sir, after
the revelations that have been made
here. I would not be surprised air any
one' having contributed."
Mora Contrlbotloa Declared Neni.
He had said previously that he had
no Idea that Mr. Morgan had con
tributed to his 1904 campaign until the
financier testified yesterday. The only
reference to the use of money in the
McHarg had used funds improperly in
Roosevelt Progressive campaign this
year was brought in by Colonel Roose
velt himself, with a denial that Ormsby
