MURDERER MAKES ESCAPE
Stenographer for Kerr, Gitford &
Co. Is Victim Fred Traunson,
Deranged Elevator Operator,
Assassin, Police Say.
Miss Emma. Ulrich. a. pretty stenog
rapher, was shot and killed last night
as she was entering her home at 1074
Corbett street by an assassin who had
lain in wait for her as she returned
lrora work. The police believe the mur
derer is Fred Traunson. an elevator
operator; who was madly infatuated
with the girl and insanely jealous be
cause she had sptimed his attentions.
Five shots were fired, only one of
which took effect. Miss Ulrich ran
toward the rear of the house when the
man began shooting. Her assailant fol
lowed her. She opened the kitchen door
and had Just stepped inside when the
last shot was fired. It struck her In
the back of the head and sbe fell dead
on the kitchen floor in the presence of
her mother, Mrs. Carl Smith, and her
little brother and sister. and 6 years
old.
Police Accuse Traunson.
"There can be no doubt but the mur
derer was Fred Traunson," said De
tective Pat Moloney, who was on the
scene soon after the shooting. "The
description given by those who saw him
is accurate. It could be only the de
scription of Traunson."
Mrs. Carl Smith, Emma's mother, said
the girl told her Sunday that she had
seen Traunson again and he was trying
to follow her.
Last August Fred Traunson was ar
rested for attacking Miss Ulrich with
a revolver. Newspaper clippings of
this event had been preserved by the
rirl. who feared the man.
"She gave me the siipplngs not long
ago," said Mrs. Smith, "and said: 'If
I'm ever killed these might come in
handy.' "
Traunson's Infatuation for Miss
Ulrich began months ago when he was
employed as elevator operator in the
Lewis building. Miss Ulrich was em
ployed as stenographer in the office
of Kerr, Gifford & Co. in the same
building. Attracted by the girl's
beauty, the elevator boy frequently
tried to make advances toward her,
tut was always repulsed.
Miss Ulrich complained to her em
ployers of Traunson's actions, but the
case was not taken seriously.
Traunson, apparently Insane, ac
costed the girl In the lobby of the
building August 2. and demanded that
she marry him. She was frightened
and tried to run. Traunson pulled two
revolvers out of hia pockets and wild
ly demanded that she elope with him
or he would shoot her.
The girl fled -to safety and Traunson
subsequently was arrested. A charge
of carrying concealed weapons was
filed against him August 3, and be
cause it seemed that he was some
what deranged. Municipal Judge
Stevenson continued his case for a
week. With the understanding that
lie was to leave Portland and stay
away, he was released on August 8.
Girl Expresses Feu,
Traunson did not leave the city, but.
since that time has been hanging
around, out of employment, and fre
quently Miss Ulrich told her relatives
and employers that he was following
her. She was afraid of him, and re
marked to Mr. Kerr two months ago
that she was afraid Traunson would
"get her."
Traunson had not been seen much of
late, but last night put in his appear
ance on Corbett street, near Miss Ul
rich's home. Several persons saw him,,
but did not know him.
Miss Ulrich. with several packages
tinder her arm, got off a streetcar in
front of her home, and was just enter
ing when the prowler accosted her. It
was after 6 o'clock, and in the darkness
the girl did not recognize the man who
had followed her.
The prowler suddenly began shooting
and 'Miss Ulrich screamed and ran
toward the rear of the house, the man
with the revolver still following her.
After she had fallen dead Inside the
kitchen door the slayer fled. He is still
at large and the police are scouring the
city for him.
Girl 21 Tears Old.
Miss Ulrich, 21 years old, was pretty
and vivacious. She lived with her
mother, her sister, Kate, and her step
father, Carl Smith. Mr. Smith is em
ployed at a local brewery. Only yes
terday Miss Ulrich said to Mr. Gifford,
one of her employers:
"I guess I'll have to support the
family, now that the state has gone
dry and father will be out of a Job."
Traunson is 24 years old. and has
been living with his mother at Lents.
He has been out of employment since
lie lost his position in the Lewis build
ing as a result of his first insane at
tack on the girl.
After the shooting last night the mur
derer fled south toward the Fulton dis
trict. A squad of police was dispatched
Immediately to the scene by Captain
circle. ueiecuves swennes and Mo
loney found that the fugitive had
crossed the Sellwood ferry not long
later the shooting and followed his
trail.
.Descriptions of the man were given
to policemen in all parts of the city.
He Is believed to be in hiding some
where in the Sellwood district. All
means of escape from the city are be
ing waicnea.
Deputy Coroner Gotsch removed the
girl's body to the morgue, where It
was found that only two of the bullets
was found that only one of the bullets
had taken effect. It entered the back
of the head, penetrating the brain.
Fred Traunson is 6 feet 7 or 8
Inches tall and weighs about 145
pounds. He has a slim face and sal
low complexion. Last night he wore
a tan raincoat and a dark soft telescope
u at.
ESTATE NOT YET CLAIMED
I'roperty of Ivan Kuvarlck Awaits
Friends or Relatives.
The Coroner of Rock Sprint's. Wyo
ming, has $300 and two watches which
he would like to deliver to friends or
relatives of Ivan Kuvarick, an Aus
trian who left here December 21. 1911,
with the idea of going to Trieste.
He was found dead, ten miles from
Rock Springs, three days later with
the money and watches on his body.
It seems that while on the train, he
was injured in some way and perhaps
mentally deranged by the accident. He
was attended In a hospital in Rock
Springs, but turned out almost im
mediately.
The next day he was found dead in
the woods, a short distance from the
city, where he evidently had wan-
oered. Any Information should be sup
plied the coroner at Rock Springs.

Sermaize, France, in Ruins,
Sample of Destruction.
RETREATING FOE SETS FIRE
Of 2800 Inhabitants bnt 20 0 Are
Left, Many Having- Been Killed In
Battles Raging Around Them
Continuously for Five Days.
SERMAIZE LES BAINS. France tvia
Paris), Nov. 16. This regional town of
2S0O inhabitants before the German in
vasion is representative of what hap
pens to a place in the path of the hos
tile army. wThere were 600 houses and
now a dozen bullet-scarred buildings
are standing. All the others have been
knocked to pieces by shells or burned.
Walls of brick or stone, constructed
with old-fashioned care, burst by the
heat, are tumbled in ruins across the
streets. Two hundred persons live in
the dozen houses, or in Improvised
shelters set up against some of the
half ruined walls.
Several hundred men answered the
mobilization call posted on the city hall
on August 1. Then the French army
in retreat came through and upwards
of 2000 inhabitants took to flight, some
by their own conveyances, others on- the
wagons of the army transport and hun
dreds on foot, carrying packages and
their small children.
Sermaize, which is 177 miles east-
northeast of Vitry le Francois, was on
the battle line? QfS20 miles chosen by
General Joffre for the French stand.
It was under slfell fire when the French
occupied the place, again when the Ger
mans held it and when it lay between
the two armies.
This went on for five days. The
frightened inhabitants lived in cellars
until the tumbling ruins began to choke
the entrances. Then the Germans,
withdrawing the last time, set fire, it
ts alleged, to all dwellings left stand
ing and most of them were burned.
The 200 residents remaining took
refuge in the open fields. An indeter
minate number, it is said, were killed
or wounded by accident. Thus a pros
perous little city in a district which is
the center of sugar manufacturing, was
almost effaced. The correspondent has
seen seven such towns and there appear
to be a hundred more in the country
recovered irom the uermana.

PRESENT CRISIS ANALYZED
Flea Is Made for Suppression of All
Differences Within Church and
"Extirpation of Evil Growth
of Modernism."
ROME. Nov. IS. The Pope today
caused to be published his announced
encyclical urging peace among the
warring nations of Europe.
. In this document the pontiff attrib
utes the war to four causes, namely.
lack of mutual and sincere love among
men, contempt of authority, injustice
on the part of one class of the people
against apother, and the consideration
of material welfare as the sole object
of human activity.
The Pope's appeal urging eapec in Eu
rope follows a pastoral letter from the
pontiff Issued early in September, in
which he exhorted the heads of the
nations engaged in hostilities to end
the present reign of ruin, disaster and
bloodshed. The Pope then said the
spectacle of the conflict filled him
with horror and sadness, and that he
hoped not only for the end of this war,
but of all wars.
War Declared Soul Strujrale.
The encyclical begins by tracing a
horrible picture of the present war
and by calling upon the rulers ana tue
peddles to end the fratricidal fight, in
order that the dawn oi me new pon
tificate be blessed by peace through
out the world. The present bloody war
is terrible because, the encyclical de
clares, it is a struggle of souls as well
as a struggle of bodies, the soul being
the origin of the body.
After making reference to the doc
trines of Christ, the communication
says:
"The spirit of Christ does not reign
today. The people talk of brotherhood
more than they ever have before, yet
brotherhood is ignored today to a de
gree greater than ever before. Na
tions, races, cities and individuals are
divided today by rancor and selfish
ness more than they are by political
frontiers. The lack of reciprocal char
ity is causing a lack of respect for au
thority. "Love does not alter differences be
tween social classes, but it makes
those above inclined toward the hum
ble with Christian virtues, most of all
with Justice, while the humble trust
their superiors, awaiting brotherly as
sistance from them."
Higher Motives trued.
The Pope expresses the view that to
bring about the desired change it will
be necessary to extirpate the secret
root of all evils, which he described as
the view that material good is the only
object of life.
The second part of the encyclical is
devoted to an appeal for peace within
the church. It urges the suppression
of all differences, and in particular the
extirpation of the "evil growth of mod
ernism, together with the evil modern
istic spirit which seeks novelty in
everything.
"The pretense of emancipation of hu
man civil authority from God causes
the links between superiors and in
feriors to become dally looser. Sover
eign rulers should consiedr this and see
whether it is wise to divorce them
selves from the religion of Christ,
whether it is good policy to banish the
gospel from education. The principle
that men, being equal in nature, must
also be equal socially. Is false. Argu
ments to the contrary fill souls with
anger. Inspire class hatred and fill life
with struggles. The only remedy is to
teach the fundamental prepect of the
gospel, to love each other more aud
more.
STATE LOSES LAND SUIT
APPEAL FROM OREGON' SUPREME
COURT DISMISSED.
Attorney-General Crawford Declares
He Advised Aa-alnst Carrying;
Case to Wahin-ton.
WASHINGTON. Nov. 16. The appeal
of the Governor of Oregon from the
decision of the Oregon Supreme Court
upholding the legislative grant of
marsh anfl tide lands In Benton County
to the Willamette Valley & Coast Rail
road Company, in 1871, was dismissed
today by the Supreme Court for. want
of jurisdiction.
SALEM, Or.. Nov. 16. (Special.)
Attorney-General Crawford said to
night that he advised against appeal
ing the case to the Supreme Court of
the United States, but. did so upon
Governor West's Insistence. He said he
did not believe that a Federal ques
tion was Involved. The grant was
made by the Oregon Legislature to
the Willamette Valley & Coast Rail
road and the land is owned iow by
the Corvallis & Eastern Railroad.
Suit was brought several years ago
to annul the title and recover the land
for the state schools. The Corvallis
& Eastern Railroad had sold part of
the land and resisted the suit. A
decision favorable to the railroad was
rendered by the Oregon Supreme Court,
the company's title being held absolute.
Governor West insisted that an appeal
be taken to the Supreme Court of the
United States and intimated that spe
cial counsel might be employed, but
Attorney-General Crawford" acted for
the state.

POLITICAL ATTACKS TABOO
lr. Anna Shaw Is Re-elected Presi
dent of National American Asso
ciation and $7500 Pledged
Toward $26,000 Budget.
NASHVILLE. Tenn, Nov. 16. The
46thannual convention of the National
American Woman suffrage Association,
in session here since last Thursday,
closed tonight with an apparent truce
established between the opposing ele
ments of the organization.
Among the more important results of
today's session were the election of of
ficers, the declaration by the associa
tion of a definite policy opposing at
tacks on a political party, and the
adoption of resolutions setting forth
the organization's stand on legislation
for suffrage and other public questions.
No mention was made of the Con
gressional Union, concerning which
there had been heated discussion, and
no motion was presented involving any
authorization to the National body to
discipline state organizations which
might work contrary to the associa
tion's policy.
Calm Follows Election.
Anti-adminlBtration supporters worked
diligently for their candidates for Na
tional offices, styled the "representa
tive ticket," but after the administra
tion nominees were elected by a major
ity strength of about 70 votes, calmness
prevailed.
Dr. Shaw was unopposed for presi
dent. The convention tabled a resolution
urging all suffragists and suffrage or
ganizations to aid the cotton movement
by "buying a bale, by wearing cotton
clothes and In every way popularizing
cotton."
All resolutions relating to the Euro
pean war were referred to a special
committee to be redrafted and reported
to the executive council, which will hold
a session here tomorrow.
Alabama Campalarm Is Intent.
Southern delegates announced in the
convention that their caucus had de
cided to concentrate their energies on
winning Alabama for woman suffrage
the coming year.
In addition to Dr. Shaw, the follow
ing officers were elected: First vice
president. Mrs. Stanley McCormick,
New York; second vice-president. Airs.
Desha Beckenridge. Kentucky; third
vice-president. Miss Katharine B. Davis,
New York; recording secretary, Mrs.
Susan W. Fitzgerald, Massachusetts;
corresponding secretary, Mrs. Orten H.
Clark. Michigan; treasurer, Mrs. Henry
Wade Rogers, Connecticut; second au
ditor. Mrs. MedlU McCormick, Illinois.
Among the more important changes
was an amendment limiting represen
tation of any affiliated member asso
ciation in the convention to 50 dele
gates. The class known as auxiliary
members was eliminated.
The budget calling for 626.030 for
next year s work was approved, 67600
being pledged from the floor.

TESTIMONY THAT CANNOT
BE DOUBTED
I wish to testify to the good that
your Swamp-Root did me. I was both
ered with Kidney trouble and lame
back for some three years; had taken
medicine from several doctors but
without effect. I finally tried Dr.
Kilmer's SwampRoot, and after tak
ing three bottles was completely cured.
I have also recommended it to several
friends who have been completely
cured of kidney and bladder trouble.
In one case a friend of mine in Toledo
took two bottles of Swamp-Root, which
dissolved a stone in his bladder. He
has not been troubled since. Also a
friend In Springfield. Ohio, who was
employed at the Springfield Metallic
Casket Company, was completely
cured of kidney trouble after taking
Swamp-Root. I give this testimonial
unsolicited, for It may be the means
of helping someone else.

QUIT MEAT WHEN
KIDNEYS BOTHER
Take a Glass of Salts If Your
Back Hurts or Bladder
Troubles You-
No man or woman who eats meat
regularly can make a mistake by
flushing the kidneys occasionally, says
a well-known authority. Meat forms
uric acid which excites the kidneys,
they become over-worked from the
strain, get sluggish and fall to filter
the waste and poisons from the blood,
then we get sick. Nearly all rheu
matism, headaches, liver trouble,
nervousness, dizziness, sleeplessness
and urinary disorders come from
sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel a dull ache
in the kidneys or your back hurts or
If the urine is cloudy, offensive, full
of sediment, irregular of passage or
attended by a sensation of scaldlngr,
stop eating meat and get about four
ounces of Jad Salts from any phar
macy; take a tablespoonf ul in a glass
of water before breakfast and in a
few days your kidneys will act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, com
bined with llthia. and has been used
for generations to flush and stimulate
the kidneys, also to neutralize the acids
in urine so it no longer causes Irrita
tion, thus ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot
Injure; makes a delightful effervescent
lithia-water drink which everyone
should take now and then to keep the
kidneys clean and active and the blood
pure, thereby avoiding serious kidney
complications. Adv.
