Accompanied by Detectives and lepntjr District Attorney, Con fessed Criminal Points Out Where Revolvers Bought. The present status of the capital punishment amendment, making it doubtful that such a crime as first degrreo murder can be punished In Ore Son, Fred G. Tronson, murderer of Emma Ulrich, will be formally charged with murder In the second degree be fore Municipal Judge Stevenson this morning:. The case then will be sent to the grand Jury. The confession of Tro.naoz was cor roborated In many details yesterday, when, accompanied by Detectives Swennes and Maloney and Deputy Dis trict Attorney Collier, the murderer went to Vancouver, Wash., and pointed out the places In which he had pur chased the revolvers, with one of which he had killed the girl. He was found to have registered in a rooming-house there as "J. Johnson." Leading the de tectives to where he said he had thrown away his hat, Tronson found the hat. lie had purchased a cap In Vancouver and took those with him to the store where the purchase was made. Seen in Jail yeBterday. Tronson af firmed his statement that he had killed the girl because he could not have ber himself Tronson Wanted to Die. "I cannot say I am sorry for what I did," he said. "I am sorry that I was caught, though, for I intended to make a circuit through Washington and re turn to Portland and kill myself on the same spot where Emma died." Mrs. Carl Smith, mother of the mur dered girl, is bitter toward Tronson and the authorities. "I hope they hang him," she said yesterday. In her bitterness she de clared that she could see the authori ties hanged with the murderer. Mother Shows Bitterness, "They let him out after he had threatened to kill my girl." she said. "How can they escape the blame?" "At the time of Tronson'e arrest I agreed to let him go, provided he would leave town. My Idea was that he would sweat out his infatuation In tjie fields, Just like other cases we have to handle," said Municipal Judge Steven son of Tronson's release. "As a general thing, men brought up for threatening to kill get over the Idea soon and Tron son's case appeared to be no excep tlon." Tronson did not remain out of the city and on last Monday night shot and killed Miss Ulrich. after waiting: at her home, 1074 Corbett street. His own story of the murder is: Hands on Gun In Pocket. "I stepped out and faced her as she drew near. Her faofl went pale and she drew back. I guess she could see what was coming by looking in my "eyes. I had on my overcoat, and my hands were on the guns In its pockets. " 'I have come to ask you again If you will have me,' I said to hor. "It is the last chance.' " "Oh. no,' she said, putting her hands to her face. "Then," he paused and his eyes con tracted, "she wheeled quick and started to run around the side of the house. I took out one of the revolvers and start ed shooting. She kept on running, with me close after her. I don't think I hit her before she reached the house. "The girl ran through the back door and into the kitchen. Her mother was standing there against the wall, with a little boy held to her. She didn't scream or say anything. She acted like she was dazed. Emma ran on through that room and another. She uiuu i Bcreani ioua, eicner. cine vaf moaning, more like as if she waa cry ing than anything else. Sister A Is in Room. "There was another child In another room and Emma's big sister was there, too. "I shot as Emma got to the bathroom door and she fell there." There was no emotion i& Tronson's face or bearing. His story is well con nected. "When I saw she lay still I thought I had killed her, so I ran out the back door. I threw away the revolver I had killed her with. I was going to shoot myself with the other one." "The v widespread publicity given Tronson's description by the news papers did more toward effecting his capture than could a hundred thousand circulars mailed by the Police De partment," said Chief Clark. "I desire, on the behalf of the department, to thank the papers of Portland for their signal services in the pursuit of the murderer." 'I believe Fred has committed suicide, and I hope he has," declared the murderer's brother, Charles, to Detec tive Swennes during the latter's vigil at the Tronson home. Mrs. Anna Tronson. mother of the boys, was kept from knowledge of her son's deed, until the day he was caught, all news papers being hidden from her.

T INVENTOR AND ACTRESS x xnti tiSGATE t 1 ."Vr i ;V)i: ' h s n t I - - t i r f : ill - ?r01 ' . - MISS VERA DESMOND AND PETER VESCOV1 AS THEl DE SCENDED AND AFTER THE TBIP FROM TOP OF THE SELLl.VU BUILDING WAS FINISHED SUCCESSFVI.LY. THRILLS If "RESCUE" Test of New Fire Escape At tracts Many Spectators. GIRL CARRIED TO SAFETY Inventor of Device Jvmpi From 12th-Story Window of Selling Bulldins and Winda Self Down. -Slowly, Stopping at Will. To demonstrate the success of a portable fire escape which he has In vented. Peter Vescovl yesterday jumped from a window on the 12th floor of the Selling building and In view of a large street assemblage let himself down by the apparatus to a lower win dow, where he stopped to pick up Miss Vera Desmond, and continued down to the sidewalk with her in his arms. Successful accomplishment of the feat brought loud cheers from the crowd. The machine Is known aa the "Auto safe Pocket Fire Escape." It consists of a case resembling that of a wind ing tape measure. There is a strap arrangement which is fastened about the body. Inside the case is a steel line capable of holding 800 pounds of dead weight. .The end of the line is fastened to some solid fixture in a window and the weight of the body plays out the tape from the reel. The case is attached to the strap arrange ment which is placed about the body. The speed of descent can be regulated by the movement of a dial on the case in which the steel line is coiled. In yesterday's demonstration Mr. Vescovl used a rope to fasten the de vice to the upper window of the build ing. Climbing out on the window-sill he adjusted the belt about his body and began his descent. When he reached one of the lower windows he stopped by turning the lever on the case of his device. Miss Desmond, who Is a member of the company play ing at the Lyric Theater, had climbed out on the window-sill and he took her in his arms.. Again the lever was pressed' and the, descent was made slowly and safely. Another stop was made 26 feet from the ground and the crowd gathered about and cheered. The descent to the sidewalk was made slowly. It is said the fire escape device Is a success and may come into general use. It occupies but little space and can be used under almost any condi tions. Other demonstrations are to be made by its inventor. BARN MEASURE NOT LIKED Requirements ald to Bo Too Slnch tor Small Pocketbooks. Because It has been shown that the city barn ordinance passed by the old City Council in 1911 works a hardship on many persons and exacts unreason able things in connection with barn construction if strictly enforced, an ef fort is to be made to have the meas ure amended, v Under the ordinance a barn, no mat ter how small, must be fitted with a concrete floor and connected with the sewer or drain into a cesspool. Much complaint has come from the campaign of the city health bureau to require the construction of concrete floors In all barns. It Is contended that the concrete is no better than a water-tight wooden floor. Complaint is -made against the sewer requirement. It is said that this involves a great deal of expense which many poor peo ple cannot stand. Chief complaint has come from the campaign to require concrete floors and sewer connections in old barns. UNEMPLOYED WILL PARADE Permission Granted by Council Pro vided Disreputable Class Barred. A parade of the unemployed Is to be held in Portland November 24. The City Council yesterday agreed to permit the procession which, according to the SNAPPED IN NOVEL "POCKET" EXHIBITION. committee on arrangements. Is to be held for the purpose of showing busi ness men and city officials what the conditions in Portland really are. Permission for the parade was granted on condition that the unemployed of the North End and Industrial Workers of the World type be excluded. The committee composed of EJ. R. Dodds and A, Duncan announced to the Coun cil that the parade will be made up almost entirely of married men who want work and their families. . At first the Council was inclined to disapprove of the plan. The attitude was changed by the argument that it would be a faotor in advertising to the unemployed of other cities of the Northwest that Portland is not a good place to come. Efforts are to be made to keep the "Won't Work" type out of the parade. Committees of the Unemployed Protec tive Association, recently organized, will assist the police in endeavoring to confine the makeup of the parade to the respectable class of the unem ployed. 'MILITARY' BOOK ASSAILED Dr. Chapman Outlines Iiectnre on "Germany and Next War." Bernhardi's book on "Germany and the Next War" is to be the subject of Dr. C. H. Chapman's next lecture at the T. M. C. A. An advance announcement of the lecture says: "This work is of so much current interest that It has been thought best to substitute it for the topic which had been scheduled regularly for this lecture. Bernhardt states with surprising frankness the system of military philosophy which seems to have dominated the German mind for some years before the great war broke out. He has gathered the quintescence of Machiavelli. Nietzsche and Treltschk-e. "His book Is totally without morality. It teaches the doctrine of wholesale robbery. Insists that war Is tha mnml duty of a nation and holds that weak nations have no rights which the strong are bound to respect. The mera m- istence of such a book In the modern world would be a fearful portent. That It should have become comilur -In country like Germany shows how easy it is for the best of men to revert to barbarous thoughts an.-i deeds."

But for that, he declared, he would rather be banged than to have the prison sen tence. "I am either guilty or not guilty," said Pender. "If I am guilty I ought to be hanged. If I am innocent, and I am. I ought to go free." Although John F. Logan, counsel for the man, assured Governor West when he asked for the commutation that he would make no effort to take advan tage of the lack of a saving clause in the amendment abolishing capital pun ishment, if it is passed, to free Per.der, the statement of Pender that he is inno cent and would fight for his freedom Indicates that he, at least, might make an effort to get out ot prison on the technicality. P01N0EXTER IS TARGET OLE HAXSOX WA3TT9 SCALP OF BULL MOOSE'S LOME SENATOR. Reeent Candidate Against W. L. Josh Vows to Defeat Party Leader Who Dented Bias Support, SEATTLE, Wash.. Nov. 20. (Special.) Ola Hanson, recently a candidate for United States Senator, is out for the scalp of Senator Poindexter. To sev eral of the state Bull Moose leaders Mr. Hanson confided: "I am going to wait and see which ticket Miles -Poindexter runs on as a candidate for re-election and then I am going to file ah a candidate against him and I'm going to defeat him for the nomination.' Senator Poindexter came to town a couple of days ago and will be here during the remainder of the week. He arrived in the state too late to partici pate in the last campaign and this fact is responsible for the coolness which exists between Ole Hanson and the lon6 Bull Moose of ths Senate. Mr. Hanson believed he was entitled to Senator Poindexter'. support and that is why he has declared to his friends that he is waiting for the Senator to Jump be fore he announces his own candidacy at the 1916 election. In the meantime Mr. Hanson's friends assert that he is keep ing "perfectly cool." That Senator Poindexter wants to take a later survey of the political field is the firm conviction of Bull Moose partisans who attended last night's conference or who have cau cused with the Spokane Senator during his stay at the Hotel Butler. A re juvenation of the Bull Moose party might keep him in that organization, otherwise the Bull Moose politicians declare he is apt to appear as a Re publican or Democratic aspirant for re election. That he wants another term in. the Senate is understood. SUPERIOR SESSION OVER McXemar Divorce Case at Cathlamet Continued 10 Days tor Plea. CATHLAMET. Wash., Nov, 80. (Spe cial.)
