Sai iing e- BOY ACCUSED BY GIRL HELD Grandmother of Child Kxplains She Was Unable ' Financially to Care for It Second Degree Murder Charge Is Likely. Confessing yesterday to responsibil ity for the death of the daughter's baby, whose body was exhumed ' from uftder a " raspberry vino in a garden adjoining their home Thursday, Mrs. Bessie L. l-'owlo and her 17-year-old daughter, Harriett Fowle, will be charged, with second-degree murder to day, according to John A. Collier, Dep uty District Attorney. Donald Duffield. son of William F. Duffield, a carpenter living at Fifty ninth street and Fifty-ninth avenue Southeast, and who is but 19 years old, was arrested by Deputy Juvenile Offi cer Jeffries yesterday on the girl's as sertion that the youth was the father of the infant. He denies responsibil ity, but probably will face a charge of contributing to the delinquency of the girl, said Deputy District Attorney Itobinson yesterday. In the confession made by mother and daughter yesterday the former ad mitted that she placed a heavy camphor-soaked cloth over the baby's mouth and that when she removed the cloth the child was dead, and both declared that the cloth was used at the girl's suggestion. Mrs. Fowle is the mother of 10 children, and she and the girl told the attorneys that they were unable financially to take care of the baby. The baby was born Sunday, May 3, and was put to death the following day, the woman said. According to Mrs. Fowle. her daughter continually suggested that the infant be put "to sleep" with camphor or chloroform. Mrs. Fowle is proprietor of a con fectionery store at 3421 Fiftieth street Southeast. Her home at 3411 Fifty fourth street Southeast mysteriously burned to the ground shortly-after the baby was exhumed Thursday. Mr. and Mrs. Adam Wolfe, son-in-law and daughter of Mrs. Fowle, are still being held as witnesses under $300 bonds. The charge against th.n is that of concealing a death. 2 M EN ROB PASSENGERS MASKED PAIR GET $400 FROM SOUTHERN PACIFIC TRAIN'. ,Shotfl Are Exchanged After Men Start Away, liut Escape la Made; Some Jewelry Alan Taken.

About 700 Brit ish and French war horses, part of a herd of several hundred head of horses which escaped from a stockade here during an electrical storm last night, tonight were being held for ransom by German farmers, whose lands the horses had overrun and damaged. Rumors that German sympathizers had caused the 100-foot breach in the stockade wall through which the ani mals escaped were discussed here, but were generally discredited. The farm ers who rounded up small herds of the stampeded horses declared tonight they would refuse to surrender the animals until assured by agents of the British and French governments they would be compensated for the damage caused by the animals and for the expense in curred in corralling, them. Four hundred horses were returned to the stockade after a spectacular roundup extending through the streets of Alton, Benbow City and Wood River. MRS. HARRIMAN WINS SUIT Late Husband Never Owner in Port land, Xclialeni & Tillamook. NEW YORK, June 11. Judge Hand, in the Federal District Court here to day, dismissed the suit of Henry Mel ville Walker against Mrs. Edward H. Harriman, widow of the financier, to recover commissions aggregating $500. 000. which he asserted wee.xlue him for negotiating in 1905 for the sale-of $2,400,000 par value of the bonds pf the Portland, Nehalem & TillamooK. Railroad, in the State of Oregon. The suit originally was brought against E. H. Harriman in 1908. Walker declared that Mr. Harriman had gained control of the road and delivered it to the Southern Pacific. Judge Hand's action came after three witnesses had testified that the South ern Pacific and Mr. Harriman never were the holders of the bonds and stock of the Oregon railroad.

" Jl NOTE IS NOT EFFECTIVE News Difepatcli From Berlin Says Submarines Will Continue. . AMSTERDAM, via London, June 11. A dispatch from Berlin to the Kol nische Volkszeitung. a copy of which has been received here, says: "Without doubt Mr. Lansing, in com parsion with Mr. Bryan, is a man of sharp tone, but the German press will do well not to Inquire too anxiously whether he is a man of sharp or -of peaceful- tone- v "Our submarine war will not cease on that account. If American ships or Americans in British ships enter the war zone they must, despite Mr. Lan sing and President Wilson, take the risk involved in such a voyage. Amer ica can claim the right to judge neu trals' rights only when she herself maintains neutrality. Such was not the case under the pacifist, Mr. Bryan, and probably will be Just as little the case under the international law ex pert, Mr. Lansing."
