dation of Jury.
PRISONER SOCIAL WORKER
Ttev. H. W. Kuhlman, Who Was Ar
rested for Accosting Woman on
Street Thursday Xight, Is De
fended by Rev. Mr. Trimble.
Three clergymen, a church woman
and two newspaper men sat In Judgment
In Municipal Court yesterday upon Rev.
Henry W. Kuhlman. a Tillamook min
ister accused of violating the mashing
ordinance and found guilty. Then
they counseled mercy, and the court
acceded to their recommendation and
sent the minister out of court under
suspended sentence.
The defendant said be had been doing
social Investigating In Tillamook, and.
arriving In Portland at 10 P. M. Tnurs
day, set out to see how conditions in
large city compared with those In
smaller one.
He had not gone far when he was
accosted by a woman of the streets and
stopped to talk with her. He laid stress
upon the fact that he bad 65 cents In
his pocket at the time.
Going a little farther, he saw two
men come out of a saloon under the
influence of liquor and stopped to get
their viewpoint. The next person he
encountered was Dr. Etta Hill Shnauff-
ner, who resides at 424 Williams ave
nue. He addressed her. saying, ac
cording to her testimony:
"Is your name Mabel?"
"It certainly Is not, sirrah!" she re
plied, and lust then Detective Price and
Patrolman McCarthy stepped up and
and made the arrest.
Jury Trial la Ordered.
There was a gathering of the cloth
when the case came up -for adjourned
hearing yesterday afternoon. Judge
Stevenson showed plain distaste to sit
ting in judgment on the case, and said:
"This impresses the court aa a case
In which a representative jury should
sit. and I therefore order that one be
empaneled." .
Those chosen to serve were J. W.
McDougall. superintendent of the Port
land district of the Methodist Church
C. T. Cook, of the Laurelwood Method
ist Church and a college classmate of
the defendant; Robert Hughes, editor
of the Northwest Christian Advocate;
Mrs. Esther A. Nicholls, Ted Lansing
and Paul Koontz, newspaper reporters.
Rev. Delmer H. Trimble, who has
acted as a friend In trying to keep the
defendant ut of Jail Thursday night,
acted as amicus curiae and represented
the prisoner. He laid much stress upon
the 65 cents, and asked the court to
take ' judicial knowledge of the fact
that a man couldn't "roll them very
high" .on that.
"It seems to me, doctor," said the
court to Rev. Mr. Trimble, "that this
man is just plain verdant; be ought to
be on the Portland Vice Commission.'
Aa both the Judge and Rev. Trimble
were members of that body It was gen
erally admitted that the court had de
llvered itself of a bon mot.
Interview la Refused.
Rev. Mr. Kuhlman refused to be in'
tervlewed after the trial, but referred
questioners to his friend. Dr. Trimble.
and advised the latter if he maae any
statement to make It in writing.
"He is one of our most valued men,
said Dr. Trimble, "and I am confident
that he merely Is guilty of an lndlBcre
tion. He had been doing social work
in Tillamook and did not realize that In
taking such a step in a city like Port
land be bad to be protected."

The talk drifted around to the sub
ject of hunting and trapping, and the
two men vied in boasting of their
marksmanship. Moeller placed a cup
on the table and shattered it with a
shot from his revolver. Then Broddie
wanted to excell the feat and Moeller
was unwilling to let him, on the plea
that the police would be aroused.
Mrs. Broddie says she left Moeller-s
shack about 10:30 and the men fol
lowed later. At length the debate be
came s high that Moeller brandished
the revolver at Broddie and Mrs.
Broddie grappled with him. Then he
fired over her shoulder and Broddie
was hit.
Despite his wound, Broddie sprang
at Moeller and knocked him down. He
hen sank on his bunk and Mrs. Brod

Captain Keller and Patrolman More'
lock responded, arriving in a few
minutes, and took both men into cus

later. The charge against Moeller was
then changed from assault to murder

'More than eight years after the death
of the testator the discovery by David
M, Dunne, administrator of the estate.
of a will left by John H. Mitchell,
United States Senator from Oregon,
makes it necessary to begin the admin
istration of the estate anew. The will,
which was found by Colonel Dunne
amongst some old papers when he was
moving to make way for M. A. Miller
as Collector of Internal Revenue for
Oregon, was executed in Washington,
D. C, May 14. 1891, in the presence of
John Irwin, Jr., Godfrey Beck and
Anne Wldmar. It is said to be in the
handwriting of Senator Mitchell.
With the exception of SI each to bis
six children Senator Mitchell left every
thing to his wife, Mrs. Mattle E.
Mitchell, now residing in Paris, France,
with her daughter, the Duchesse De La
Rochefocauld, and named her as ex
ecutrix without bonds. She, however,
will receive nothing. It Is said, as the

As soon as Probate Judge Cleeton

The substance of Senator Mitchell's

Thomas G. Greene, attorney for Ad

by realty experts about a year ago was

The real estate consists of a half
Interest in a half block on Union ave
nue between Schuyler and Hancock
streets; a half interest in a quarter
block at Schuyler and East First
streets, and a half Interest in a lot on
East Second street between Schuyler
street and Broadway.
As the situation stands now, it is
said, the creditors will be put to con
siderable additional expense to have
the will probated, as the real estate
will -not be accepted by the D. P.
Thompson Estate Company unless
deeded to them by an executor or ex
ecutrix, now that a will has been dis
covered. The deposition of the wit

If they cannot be located the will may
be proved by testimony that It Is in
the handwriting of Senator Mitchell.
