JUROR REBUKES LAWYER Testimony That Gleam of Metal Is First Intimation of Approach of Pursuing Machine After Speeding Car Passed. County Motorcycle Officer White was on the wrong side pi the road and wa3 running without lights at the time of his collision with a motorcycle rid den by George and John Hollaender, of Roclcwood. Or., last Saturday night, according: to testimony offered Thursday night at the Coroner's inquest Into the death of the two boys. Both of the young men have since died in the County Hospital, and Mr. White was injured so badly that he was unable to appear at the inquest last night. The inquest was adjourned after all of the other witnesses had testified, and will be resumed at 4 P. M. next Satur day if Mr. White is able to testify then. Operation Afternards Mentioned. White's attorney. R. II. Giltner, brought out the fact that both Hol laendar boys had undergone opera tions after they arrived at Multnomah Hospital. The operation on John Hollaender was performed soon after ho arrived at the hospital, to deter mine if he had suffered internal hem morrhage of the abdomen. The opera tion on George Hollaender was per formed to relieVe a blood clot on his brain a few hours before he died Wednesday morning. Tho inquest was marked by sharp tilts between Coroner Dammasch anji Mr. Giltner regarding the inquisition of witnesses and the introduction of testimony. Dr. Dammasch reproved Mr. Giltner 10 times "for wasting time in repetition of questions. Mr. Giltner paid but scant heed to the Coroner's admo nitions, and t last burst out with the words: "You Ehow a great deal of zeal in this case." Coroner Threaten to Quiet Lawyer. Dr. Dammasch was silent for half a minute. "The fairness of my decisions has never been questioned, Mr. Giltner," the Coroner at last said slowly. "If you infer that I am unfair again the courtesy of asking questions will be withdrawn from you." The first witness was A. Kreosky, who was riding from Portland to Kockwood with the Hollaenders on the night of the collision. The man testified that about 10:30 P. M., when the three mo torcyclists were seven. or eight miles from the city on the Sandy road, they met a large touring car with dazzling headlights. White is supposed to have been in pursuit of this machine. Cycle Whizzes by, Crash Cornea. Kreosky testified that he ran ahead of- the motorcycle on which the Hol laender brothers were riding tandem, and pulled over to the extreme right side of the read to avoid the glare of the lights. . . "About 25 feet in front of me," Kre osky said in reply to questions, "I saw a gleam of metal. That was just after the automobile had passed me. I turned my machine off the pavement into the soft dirt, because I knew it was an other machine coming. "A motorcycle whizzed past me in the. dark. I went on for a short dis tance. Then I heard a crash. I did not understand just what had hap pened for a few seconds. Then I Btopped and went back." White's Light Reported Out. Kreosky testified positively that White had no light on his machine. There was a light on the Hollaender machine when Kreosky left them be hind to pass the automobile, he said. The light on the Hollaender- machine was out after the collision, Kreosky as serted. Mr. Giltner quizzed Kreosky so fsharply concerning the relative loca tions of the automobile and the three motorcycles that one of the jurors in terrupted. "It's Impossible for any man to an swer those questions," the Juror burse out impatiently. "He didn't know this acident was going to happen, and did not observe closely where each person was." This remark precipitated another tilt between Mr. Giltner and Dr. Dammasch, who insisted that the lawyer was wasting time. I'hyaician Tells of Examination. Dr. Pease, who attended the injured men at Multnomah Hospital, was the next witness. The physician said that he examined John Hollaender first, and that the man complained of pain in hio abdomen. The abdominal region was marked by extreme rigidity, the physician said. Dr. Pease said that these symptoms caused him to make an Incision four inches long in tho abdominal cavity, and put his hand into the cavity to feel the intestines and other organs for rupture, he said. The physician admitted that he found no rupture, anil that a postmortem exam ination showed none. Cerebral Irritation Discovered. "Do you think, doctor, that vou did a wise thing to open up the boy under those circumstances?" demanded Mr. Gilmer. Dr. Pease drew his lips into a thin line under his short moustache. "I would consider that I had made a grave mistake If 1 had not done so." the physician replied. Dr. Pease further testified that George Hollaender was conscious when he came to the hospital, but later sank Into a coma, and showed symptoms of cerebral irritation. Feeling that the patient would die unless something was done to relieve him. Dr. Pease said, he operated on the man's skull. Othcra Tell of Accident. Other witnesses were: Dr. James C. Zan, who said that White would not be able to testify at an inquest for a week or 10 days; Herman Graber and H. J. Farnham, who had arrived on the scene shortly after the accident, and Joseph Schantln. who looked over the scene of the accident at the request of the Hollaender boys- relatives. Schan tin found oil and blood at the south side of the pavement, he said, indi cating to his mind that White had been on the left side of the road when he struck tho other machine. Farnham said that White had gone to the Hollaender motorcycle after the accident, and held a match to the head light, to see if the light was in good condition. The witness said the light burned as soon as the match was held in range of the carbide gas. Deputy District Attorney Collier rep resented the state. Citizenship Put First. Good citizenship rather than more citizens should be the aim of the Port land Chamber of Commerce in the opin ion of George . Hardy, general man- aster, expressed at the banquet of the industries and manufacturers' bureau of the chamber Thursday night. It was Mr. Hardy's first formal dec laration of his policies since he 'as sumed charge of the organization three weeks ago. He pointed out that many of Portland's problems are comrmpn with those of other cities and proceeded to elucidate some of them. He emphasized his belief that if the Chamber of Commerce gives some of its time and endeavor to a cultivation of an improved standard of citizenship in the community many of the other problems with which the organization is confronted will take care of them selves. Mr. Hardy also outlined tentatively plans for developing the manufacturing industries of the city. He proposed, first, the incorporation of a financial organization independent or tne cnamoer. Irom which established manufacturing enterprises might obtain funds to expand their business. He suggested, also, construction of a "factories building" similar to the Bush terminals in Brooklyn, N. Y.. where in fant industries might establish them selves at a low rental cost. A. J. Kingsley, chairman of the'man ufacturers" bureau, presided, and ex plained the plans for the annual Manu facturers' and Land Products Show. George D. Lee, secretary of the bu read, read the special report of the "Made-in-Oreson" committee, which urged a continuation of the campaign to educate the people in the use of Oregon products. -B. Hofer and A. H. Devers praised jthe report, which was adopted. Motion pictures, presenting familiar Oregon views, were exhibited under the direction of "Nick" Plerong. A. G. SPALDING !S DEAD SPOHTIX'C GOODS MANUFACTURER VICTIM OF APOrLEXV, ' Star Pitcher of Early 10m Known to Entire Baseball World as Pro. moler of National Game. SAN" DIEGO, Cal., Sept. 10. Albert G. Spalding, famous sporting goods man ufacturer and San Diego capitalist, died unexpectedly at his home on Point Lorn a late last night. Death was due to apoplexy. He was 65 years old. Mr. Gpalding, whose birthplace was Byron, 111., became prominent at an early age as a ballplayer and was a star pitcher in the early '70s for the Boston club, of which he became tho captain. In 1876 he became the man ager of the Chicago Nationals, remain ing with it as manager, secretary and president until 1891. With his brother and brother-in-law he established, in 1876, the firm of A G Spalding & Bros. Mr. Spalding organized and managed a world tour of the Chicago and All American baseball teams in 1888-89. A. G. Spalding was known as one of the greatest pitchers of the early history of organized baseball. One year after the organization of the National League he pitched for the pennant-winning Boston club in 1872. with a winning percentage oT .830. His pitching average next year was .729. the next year .717 and the next year, in 1875, was .899, all with Boston, which won the pennant in all these years. Mr. Spalding went to the Chicago club the next year, 1876. and with an aver age of .788 in 60 games helped pitch Chicago to a pennant. He was presi dent of the Chicago club from 1882 to 1891. inclusive, and for six years prior to that was secretary of the club. He was elected an honorary member of the National League in 1891. In the first primary election of Cali fornia for United States Senator in 1910, Mr. Spalding entered the race against John D. Works, of Los Angeles. Al though he had only 30 days for his campaign, he carried 75 legislative dis tricts of the state, as against 45 for all other rivals. Despite this, the State Legislature declared that Mr. Works should be chosen and Mr. Spalding was defeated. Mr. Spalding since mak ing his home in California, was influ ential in the good roads movement in Southern California. CAGE FOB TYPIST NEED ADVANCES OF OGLINd OLD SINNERS DECLARED OPPRESSIVE. Counter-Suggestion Made That Wives Give Their. Husbands More A fleet ion at Home. BOSTON, Sept. 10. (Special.) At the meeting of the Women's Homestead Association here today Mrs. Charlotte Smith, the president, demanded that girl stenographers be kept in wire cags while at work. "Just as soon as his stenographer en ters the office her employer ogles her, draws out a box of candy and gets closer," said Mrs. Smith. "A young girl can't do .anything but bear it. Many a girl is afraid on account of her position. ' "These old sinners take advantasre of it. It's got to etop. I would have a law passed that no man can have a female stenographer in his office with out a wire' cage surrounding her." Mrs. Frank W. Page suggested that if wives gave their husbands a little more affection wire cages would 'not be a necessity. . 13 INJURED IN COLLISION Dr. Kuno Meyer Among Those Seri ously Hurt In Train Wreck.

ARBITRATION JS OFFERED Commander of Submarine Declared to Have Been Justified in Be lieving He Was in Banger of Attack by Liner. BERLIN, via London, Sept. 10. In its note to the United States on the sink ing of the White Star liner Arabic, the German government says that it "most deeply regrets" that lives were lost through the action of the command ant. It particularly expresses this re gret to the Government of the United States on account of the death of Amer ican citizens, and adds: "The German government is unable, however, to acknowledge any obliga tion to grant indemnity in the matter. even if the commander should have been mistaken as to the aggressive in tentions of the Arabic" Submarine In Fear of Attack. The note Is dated 'September 7 and the text is as follows: "On August 19 a German submarine stopped the English steamer. Dunsley about 16 nautical miles south of Kin sale and was on the point of sinking the prize by gunfire after the crew had left the vessel. At this moment the' commander saw a large steamer making directly toward him. This steamer, as developed later, was the Arabic She was recognized as an enemy vessel, as she did not fly any flag and bore no neutral markings. "When she approached she altered her original course, but then again pointed directly toward the submarine. From this, the commander became con vinced that the steamer had the inten tion of attacking and ramming him. Work: of Reacne Observed. "In order to anticipate this attack. he gave orders for the submarine to dive and fired a torpedo stk the steamer. After firing he convinced himself that the people on board were being rescued in 15 boats. "According to his instructions, the commander was not allowed to attack the Arabic without warning and with out saving the lives of those on board unless the ship attempted to escape or offered resistance. He was forced, however, to conclude from the attend ant circumstances that the Arabic planned a violent attack or. the subma rine. "This conclusion is all the more ob vious as he . had been fired on at a great distance in the Irish sea on Au gust 14 that Is, a few days before by a large passenger steamer appar ently belonging to the British Royal Mail Steam packet Company, which he had neither attacked nor stopped. Losi of Lives Deeply Regretted. "The German government most deen- ly regrets that lives were lost through tne action or tne commander. It par ticularly expresses this regret to the Government of the United States on ac count of the death of American citi zens. "The German government Is unable. however, to acknowledge any obliga tion to grant indemnity in the matter. even if the commander should have been mistaken as to the aggressive in tentions of the Arabic. "If it should prove to be the case that It is impossible for the . German and American governments to reach a harmonious opinion on 4his point, the German government would be pre pared to submit the difference of opin ion, as being a Question of interna tional law, to The Hague tribunal for arbitration pursuant to article 38 of The Hague Convention for the pacific settlement of international disputes. "In so doing it assumes that as a matter of course the arbitral decision shall not be admitted to have the im portance of a general decision on th permissibility or the converse, under international law, of German subma rine warfare." VESSEL'S COURSE IMPORTANT Arabic Said to Have Only Pursued Tactics of Escape. WASHINGTON. Sept. 10. A note from Germany regarding the sinking of the liner Arabic reached the State Depart ment by cable through Ambassador Gerard today soon after the arrival of a mail report from Ambassador Page at London enclosing affidavits of the Arabic's survivors. The sufficiency of the German excuse for attacking the Arabic is believed to hinge in some degree upon the move ments of the liner just before the explosion. The affidavits of survivors, it is understood. Indicate that the vessel when torpedoed was doing no more than following the tactics commonly pursued when the presence of a sub marine is suspected, zig-zagging in the hope of escaping a torpedo. Outside of a narrow official circle, it was not known in Washington until the Associated Press tonight received the text of the memorandum from Berlin that Germany had refused to admit any obligation to pay indemnity for the loss of Americans with the Arabic, even if it should prove that the submarine commander was mis taken in believing the liner Intended to attack him. Press dispatches from Berlin recently saying Germany would offer to refer the matter of reparation to The Hague were followed by intimations from high officials here that such a proposal would be acceptable. At that time however, there had been no suggestion of a proposal to arbitrate the question of the right of the submarine com mander to launch a torpedo at a passenger-carrying vessel under the cir cumstances of this case. ZEPPELIN LOST IN FALL Dirigible Loses Propeller and All Members of Crew Are Killed. LONDON, Sept. 10.

OLTMPIA, Wash., Sept. 10.

AtXJZB STREET BEAUTY SPOT IS PHOTO GIRLS WEAR LIKENESS OF SOLDIER SWEETHEART OX FACE, Idea Cornea From Europe, Where All Wisli to Announce Dear Ones Are at War. CHICAGO, Sept. 6. The heart shaped beauty patch which adorns Mi ladys cheek no longer is cut from plain plaster to work coquettish havoc upon male hearts. It bears "His" picture, and is -- ex pression of beautiful sentiment which has grown up out of the sordid grew someness of war. The idea comes from Europe, where every girl's sweetheart, nearly. Is away in the trencties or is preparing to go there. It says to all who look upon beauty, "I am giving the man of any heart to the cause." In the early days the girl he left behind encased his photograph or min lature in a golden locket and put it sacredly within the bodice of her gown to rest upon her timorous heart. Now nations are in the balance; peo ples are at stake. Every one must help. The girl that's left behind may be a . daughter, a mother, a sister or even a cousin, as well as sweetheart. She wants everyone to know she's help ing. Miss Valla Valli's conspicuous I'beauty spot has attracted consider able comment among her friends and the audiences who watched and lis tened to her in the "Lady in Red." It was "odd." many thought. Close inspection betrayed upon the tiny heart the strong face of a bonny lad in a Scotch uniform cap, his face in a smile of grim determination. Then was "something new under the sun" given to American girls. They cannot have a sweetheart away at war. most of them, but all can and do have sweethearts, and all re not immune to the hire of coquetry. So the pretty sentiment which has come from the despair of a fightilng continent has been taken up in a land of peace. The idea is spreading rapidly. Pho tographers are receiving calls from the fair sex armed with pictures of "Him" who wish these reduced to min iature size with gummed backs, so that to all and sundry may be known the secret of the clasped locket over her heart. Miss Valli Valli, who introduced the fad here, conscientiously or otherwise admits that the Scotch lad's picture she wears at the corner of her left eye is of her cousin, Archie Watson, who is waiting with Earl Kitchener's tre mendous army for the crucial moment to leap upon the continent in a-, mas ter stroke. She is going to send' him a copy of the picture so that he will know of the thousands who have seen him honored on her soft, cheek and who will expect him to do his best to repay. the honor. SKIRTS SHORT, HOSE GAY Brighter Hues to Be Worn This Year In Spite or War. NEW TORK. Sept 5. Probably the gayest ship that has arrived from Euro pean shores in many months was the French liner Espagne, which arrived recently from Bordeaux, bringing many smartly garbed women. As they tripped down the gang-plank New Yorkers gasped. There was the silhouette skirt, shorter and wider than ever; the high top boot with a dainty gold watch tick ing its little heart away as it rested on the left ankle of a pretty girl's right foot; the Joffre wrap, a style of cloak that takes its name from France's war hero, and the high crown hat perked down sharply over the eyes and a tilt at the rear of the coiffure. Not in years has such a breath of loveliness swept over the Chelsea piers. The skirts are higher or shorter as you wish; the hosiery is the gayest of the ultraviolet rays incased in high-top boots. Charles Kurzman, an importer and milliner, who was among the pas sengers, said: "The skirts are to be shorter this Autumn and very much wider. They will be worn with high, fancy boots and vari-colored hosiery. The high hats will be pulled down forward over the eyes. The Jenny collection in Paris, in spite of the war, was greater, grander and better than ever. I was at the resort F.zains le Bains, where the fashions were of the gayest.
