4 THE 3UORNINO OREGONIAX. FRIDAY, JUNE. 4, 1915. AUSTRIAN SAILOR OF BRITON ROBBED Jack Kling Has Theory His Auto Assailants Thought Him Government Spy. CREW HOSTILITY RELATED Man Attacked in Car Believes He Aroused Friends or Allies Who Followed Him From So nth to Prevent Carrying Out Plans. That Jack Kling may have been taken for an Austrian Epy is a theory on which the police are working In connection with the remarkable at tack upon the man, who, until a few days ago, was second mate of the British barque Invergarry. Stripped of hie clothing, bound, gagged and un conscious. Kling was found in the bran bin In a barn owned by O. M. Rankin, at the head of Jefferson street at 6 o'clock yesterday morning. Although Kiing says he was robbed of $65 and a Vi& watch while in an automobile with a man known to him as McArthur and a girl introduced as McArthur's daughter, he believes that robbery was not the only motive for the attack, and the police accept his story as worthy of Investigation. Spy Theory Considered. Several circumstances lend weight to the theory that Kling may have been attacked as a spy. or at least, because he had given offense to some sympa thizer with Austrian enemies. By hie own admission he had falsely represented himself as a British sub ject during the voyage from London to San Francisco. Not until be applied for his pay at the British Consulate in San Francisco did Kline's shipmates learn that he was not a naturalized citizen of Great Britain. Kling had some trouble with the British crew, according to his story, and the captain suggested that he had better leave the vessel. He left the Invergarry at San Francisco, coming to Flavel by steam er, and thence to Portland by rail. In San Francisco Kling says he called at the Austrian Consulate daily to in quire for mail. These circumstances are cited by Kling as supporting the theory that he may have been followed to Port land by someone who believed him a spy in the employ of Austria. Hostility Developed, He Says. Kling shipped on the Invergarry 19 months ago, he says, before the out break of the European hostilities. The crew on the ship had no knowledge of the war until the ship reached Austra lia, Kling says, and everyone on the ship was friendly to him. The friendship of the crew changed to ill-concealed hositility when they learned of the war. and at San Fran cisco the captain of the Invergarry sug gested that Kling accept his pay and leave the ship, Kling asserts. While on the ship Kling says he represented himself as a naturalized British subject. War Topics Discussed. He says he met McArthur on the train coming from Flavel to Portland. McArthur is said to have mentioned the war and learned that Kling was an Austrian by birth. When Kling and McArthur separated in Portland McArthur invited him for a motor trip that Wednesday night, naming the postoffice as the meeting place, he says. McArthur and Kling met at the ap pointed place, and Kling was intro duced to his friend's daughter, a girl about 17 years old, Kling says. The three got into a waiting automobile and started, presumably to McArthur's country home. Attack and Drag Related. While the machine was crossing a bridge over the river, probably the Hawthorne bridge, the girl attempted to put her hand over his mouth, Kling says. Kling Bays he objected, and bit her fingers when she persisted. "McArthur stopped the car with a jerk," Kling continued. "He thrust a gun in my face and ordered me to hold up my hands. The girl bound and gagged me as I sat with my hands above my head. I must have been drugged, for I knew nothing more un til this morning." Mr. Rankin found Kling in the bran bin when he went to feed his stock yesterday morning. The police were notified, and Patrolmen Tully and Mor ris, with Detectives Tichenor and Ca hill, took Kling to the Police Emer gency Hospital. Fr Brother Killed in War, Kling says that bis father was a Captain in the Austrian army and that four of his brothers have been killed in the war. Kling is now. he asserts, sole heir to an estate of 400 acres six miles from Vienna. He is 23 years old and intends to apply for American citizenship papers. WILSON'S NOTE IS POINTED (Continued From First Page.) tlons with the allies, the ambassador Is said to have been convinced by his talk with Mr. Wilson of his sincerity of purpose in upholding the neutrality of the United States. The belief has often been freely expressed in German quarters that if the Imperial govern ment had been convinced that the United States would take an equally vigorous course in securing an adher ence by Great Britain to the interna tional law with reference to shipments of conditional contraband and food stuffs, a conciliatory reply would have been sent to the last American note. War Staffs Timirkt to Rule. On the other hand officials con versant with the feeling in Berlin of ficial quarters toward the United States are not sanguine that a satisfactory reply will be received, because of the evidence that the admiralty and war staffs have been dominating the for eign office, as not infrequently is the case, .with nations at war. President Wilson worked alone today on his communication, seeing few call ers. He studied memoranda submitted by Secretary Bryan, Counselor Lansing and members of the Cabinet, embodying a variety of suggestions. The tenor of them .all was the same that the United States should now reiterate with emphasis the principles expressed in its note of May 13 and ask an adherence to It. The principle which is to be placed squarely before Germany i.t such a way as to elicit either an affirmative or negative answer was stated in the American Government's last note as 1 ol lows: "The lives of non-combatants, whether they be of neutral citizenship or citizens of one of the nations at war. cannot lawfully or rightfully be placed n jeopardy by the capture or destruc tion of an unarmed merchantman" and the ' imperial government must "recognize also, as all other nations do. the obligation to take the usual pre cautions of visit and search." In view of the statement in the German note that reliable informa tion was at hand that the Lusitania was armed, the American Government intends to re-state that it made full and searching investigation before the Lusitania sailed and that its good faith is pledged to the assertion that no guns, either mounted or unmounted, were carried by the vessel. Way Oot of Dilemma Seen. In many quarters it was believed Germany might find a way out of the dilemma by accepting the statement of the United and superseding its own evidence, declaring that a 'mistake had been made, and paving the- way for the giving of reparation and an in sistence by Germany that some formal assurance be given that no vessels leaving American ports carrying pas sengers should be armed or resist cap ture. Little importance is attached by of ficials to the affidavits which the Ger man Embassy has transmitted to the State Department alleging that there were guns aboard the Lusitania. In one of these Gustav Stahle, of 20 Le Roy street. New York City, declared he went aboard the Lusitania to as sist his friend, A. Leitch. a cabin stew ard, with a trunk, and saw on the aft main deck and foredeck four guns of 12 and 15-centimeter caliber. They were said to be covered with leather, and Stahle alleges that he unfastened the buckles to ascertain the caliber of the guns. Woman Hear Talk of Guns. Mrs. Josephine Weir, a boardinghouse keeper in New York, Js the signer of a second affidavit, swearing she heard Leitch speak of four guns on the ship. Another signed by a man named Grieve deposes that he heard Mrs. Weir and Leitch make remarks in that connection, and a fourth by a man named Bruckner says he saw cannon on the deck of the Lusitania while standing on the dock at New York. All four affidavits have been re ferred to the Department of Justice, which is investigating. To controvert them the United States has its own re ports from Collector Malone and his inspectors. "We looked everywhere." Mr. Malone is quoted as having said, "on all the decks and in the holds especially, for guns but saw none, mounted or un mounted."

BILLIE BURKE WINS AUDIENCE AS EVER As "Jerry" Charming Sprite Like Actress Is in Dis tinctive Role. ARTISTRY SHINES FORTH Pleasing Comedy Delightfully Put on by Attractive Star; Play Is One to Bring: La tighter From All "Wlio See. WOMAN, ALONE, MURDERED Mrs. Nettie Cole Found Dead In Her Cab-In Xear Bend by Neighbors. BEND, Or., June 3. (Special.) Mrs. Nettie Cole, a middle-aged woman who lived alone in a cabin on the outskirts of town, was found dead in her home last night, apparently murdered. The right side of her head had been crushed by a heavy Instrument. At a Coroner's inquest this morning a verdict of "death at the hands of per sons unknown" was found, but the au thorities have no clew. Mrs. Cole was last seen alive Monday. From the fact that a newspaper delivered Tuesday morning was still outside the house it is assumed that she was killed some time during the night before. The dis covery last night was made by neigh bors, who became alarmed when Mrs. Cole had not been seen for two days. The implement with which the blow was struck was not found, but papers near the body showed bloody Anger marks. These are being held for a fingerprint identification of the assail ant. So far as could be observed no property was taken from the cabin. It is believed that Mrs. Cole was killed by .a visitor after a quarrel. It is understood that the dead woman had been married twice, her present hus band being a resident of Sherer's Bridge, Or. She also leaves a son, E. C. McGiff, of Portsmouth. N. H. CAST OF "JERRY." Joan Doubleday .... .Selene Johnion Harriet Townaend Alice John "Jerry" Billie Burke Montague Wade Shelly Hull Sfeter Flags H. Lawrence Ley ton Doctor Kirk William H. Sams Erlggs Thomas Reynolds Lewis Edwin Burch BY LEONE CASS BAER. If by any chance you have failed In seasons past to be won over to the distinctive artistry for I insist it is distinctive of its kind and there's no question but that it's delightful ar tistry of Billie Burke, you will hardly fail to capitulate when you see her in her present offering of "Jerry." The little comedy she brings is one of the usual Billie-Burkish, made-to-order af fairs, written around her wonderful Individuality, her coos and gurgling laughter, her capricious antics and her undeniably lovely person. All of which is to say that her of fering is one of the bright bits of the season and a fashionable assemblage last night at the Heilig laughed im moderately at the fascinating Billie's gay sallies, voted her too dear for words and hung on every wobble of her red curls. If you know the adorr able Billie and her methods you know exactly what to expect, and in "Jerry" she gives it in full measure. Not a shrug of the expressive shoulders, not a wiggle of the saucy toes, not a flicker of the thick upcurling lashes Is left out, not a pout nor any of the airy fairy graces that are inevitably a part of Billie Burke's performances. Actress Vivid Comedienne. She is a vivid comedienne, a joyous, hoidenist charming creature of moods, who has actually succeeded in making her delicious chocolate eclair acting artistic as no other has been able to do. There are here and there at times suggestions in her work that Billie Burke could do something serious if she chose, but we are glad she doesn't choose to, for then she wouldn't be Billie Burke. In the play "Jerry," in which she plays the title role, her patient and long-suffering mother related only in the play is heard to observe plain tively when someone says that Jerry is "an up-to-the-minute girl," "Up to the minute, eh? Huh! she's an hour ahead!" Well, that exactly defines Jerry's place In the play. She is Just a little ahead of all the others in her observa tions and carryings-on. In this play, as in all her predecessors. Miss Burke proposes to the man of her choice, thereby reversing the order of things as they usually happen, but keeping faith with the Billie Burke custom. Broken Enrneement Foundation. To make a clear path for her maneuvers Jerry must first break an engagement, long existing be tween the man of her heart, Monty Wade, and her own Aunt Joan. The engagement has stretched itself out over 20 years until Joan hears herself called the "perpetual fiancee." Spurred into rebellion at the unnatural condi tion Joan breaks the engagement, and Jerry, desirous of leaving Joan no chance to reconsider, telephones the society editor an announcement of Joan's engagement to an old suitor who has long been waiting patiently about. Dire disgrace befalls the youth ful culprit when her misdemeanor is discovered, but It has its good results too because it brings together Joan and her old suitor and opens Monty's eyes to the truth that it is Jerry he loves. Catherine Chisholm Cushing wrote the play, and in it has given the charm ing young actress a thousand bright lines which are made to shine brighter still on the lips of Billie Burke. Calmly looking at It. maybe the lives aren't bright after all. but appear so only because this gay little sprite puts life and laughter into them. On second reflection I'm sure that's it. The play is beautifully staged and Miss Burke's supporting company is most excellent. Tonight. . tomorrow night. and at a matinee tomorrow "Jerry" may be seen.

'S STORE Where Men Buy Their Clothes ON CREDIT! Wide-awake men like CHERRY'S for the ease and convenience of their IN STALLMENT PAYMENT PLAN; for the quiet, cool spaciousness of their shop; for its friendly spirit of courtesy.

So he did the natural thing went up to CHERRY'S and got fitted in a hand some Summer tweed that becomes him and looks a lot more expensive than it realty was.

WOMAN REFUSES OPERATION Tells How She Was Saved by Taking Lydia K. Pink- Vegetable Compound. nam s N',!r 'jt'iY ' -r':-1 ' jLrin: Louisville, Ky. " I think if more suf fering women would take Lydia E- Pinkham s Vegeta ble Compound they would enjoy better health. I suffered from a female trou ble, and the doctors decided I bad a tumorous growth and would have to be operated upon, but I refused as I do not believe in opera tions. I had fainting spells, bloated, and could hardly stand the pain in my left side. My husband insisted that I try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and I am bo thankful I did, for I am now a well woman. I sleep better, do all my housework and take long walks. I never fail to praise Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound for my good health. "Mrs. J. M. Resch, 1900 West Broadway, Louisville, Ky.
