FSISTMAN'S BUCKSKIN
GAUNTLET IS FOUND
Deputy Sheriff Phillips and
Party to Scour Woods
Along Probable Route.
FARMER MAKES DISCOVERY
feiierirr
" Exact
Ilurlburt Refuses to Tell
Spot "Where Kind Was
Made, but it AVas AVithin Two
Miles of Gore Ranch.
A buckskin gauntlet, such as Is worn
by automobile drivers, was found by
Sheriff Hurlburt and deputies a mile
and a half from Tualatin, on a byroad
yesterday, and has been identified as
one worn by Fred Ristman, the chauf
feur who disappeared the night of the
Helen Jennings murder.
This latest clew in the search for the
body of the missing jitneur is expected
to prove a valuable one, and Deputy
Sheriff Bob Phillips will leave Portland
at 5 o'clock this morning with a party
of deputies to scour the woods along
what he is new convinced was the prob
able route of the machine carrying
Kistman and his murderer.
Don Du Mas. Jitneur and friend of
Kistman, was asked by Deputy Sheriff
Phillips yesterday to describe the kind
of gloves worn by Kistman.
Glove Easily Identified. N
"They were gray" buckskin gloves,
with gauntlet tops," answered Du Mas.
"Is that one of them?" asked Deputy
Phillips, holding out the glove found
.yesterday.
-"" - "It certainly Is," was the positive
reply.
Sheriff Reeves was called on the tele
"phone. A single gauntlet had been
found on the front seat of Ristman's
blood-smeared automobile. Its de
scription fitted exactly that of the one
found.
"For which hand is that glove?"
Sheriff Reeve was asked.
"Left," he answered.
Glove Found lH for Right Hand.
The glove brought to Portland was
for the right hand the mate to the
other.
The glove had been picked ud in the
road Tuesday morning, a week ago, by
a farmer and fitted on a post by the
roadside. There it was found yesterday
by Sheriff Hurlburt. Inquiries soon
revealed the original finder, who said
that to the best of his knowledge he
found it the morning following the
murder.
The location of the by-road on which
the glove was found has not been dis
closed by Sheriff Hurlburt, as he de
sires jjeputy Phillips to te unnampereu
in his search by volunteers, who might
unwittingly disturb essential clews.
Phillips Gives Theory.
wejjuij' runups iioures Luai uie au
tomobile reached the spot at which the
glove was found as night settled down
-and a wind came up. He thinks that
'Ristman drew his gloves from under
the seat to relieve his cold hands, and
Neither dropped one1 accidentally or had
"It torn from his hand in a death". slrug-
.-gie. lr he was Kinea near tnis place,
--the body must be between there and
the Gore ranch, a distance of two miles.
it is reasoned.
Sheriff Reeves, of Washington Coun
ty, yesterday discovered spots on the
sleeve lining of the blue serge suit
' Bennett Thompson is wearing, and be
rlieves they will respond to the blood
.'test. If so they would match the
;.plotches on the sleeve of the shirt
.found near the murder farm.
The matching of the undershirt of
'-Thompson's and the shirt found near
"the murder is the most important clew
the authorities have, they assert, to
' -incriminate Thompson. There is
"graphite on the front of the shirt found
.jnear the Gore ranch. There is a trace
of a black substance on the front of
-..the undershirt, which matches as well
.-as the blood stains.
Z Thompson is reported to have lost
Tsome of his sang froid because of his
"continued incarceration at Hillsboro,
'.jnd he yesterday demanded of District
Attorney E. B. Tongue, of Washington
County, when he would be released. He
was told it would be when he satisfac
torily explained his whereabouts the
night of the murder.
;W00D HAULING CHECK $235
City Makes Final Settlement With
Contractor Hart.
- Charles R. Hart, who holds the con
tract for hauling the city's wood from
the unemployment camps near Linn ton
to purchasers in Portland, was given a
check for $235.01 by the City Counci
yesterday in final settlement for all
wood hauled by him to date. The
amount paid was $400 less than the
total amount of the bills presented by
Mr. Hart and approved by the city's
Purchasing Bureau, but caught up in
the City Auditor's office. The extra
claims were for services which, it was
found, had never been performed by
Mr. .Hart.
For nearly a month a force of clerks
and accountants has been working day
after day trying to straighten out the
tangle of the wood transactions, due
to slipshod methods of keeping rec-
oras.

redwood has been started in the
Western States by Edwin E. Meyers,
recently named manager of the Cali

MR. WHITMAN IS SNUBBED
New York Governor Not Invited to
"Place In Reviewing Stand.
NEW YORK,, May 18. Governor
Whitman did not review the prepared
ness parade from the official stand
recently. He was not invited. He was
ignored by the reception committee,
as were former Presidents Roosevelt
and Taft. former Senator Elihu Root
and other noted men.
Friends of the Governor charfre-J
Mayor . ill tchel with, responsibility for
the discourtesy. The Mayor disclaimed
it, saying that he had nothing to do
with the invitations.
After Mayor Mitchel, .General Leon
ard Wood and Rear-Admiral Usher
had for hours witnessed the march
pass, from the official stand at Fifth
avenue and Twenty-fifth street, some
one asked "Where is Governor Whit
man?" m
A much be-medaled, grayheaded
man replied, "I, as a member of the
reception committee, by authority of
Charles H. Sherill, would say that
the invitations were confined to Army,
Navy and city officials. There they
are count 'em three Mitchel, Wood
and Usher."
Police Commissioner .Woods heard
this. He Jumped into a car, hastened
to the Hotel St." Regis where he caw
Mr. Whitman.
"Why are you not on the reviewing
stand?" he asked.
"I was not invited," was the re
sponse. Military Secretary Lor 11 lard Spen
cer, resplendent in gold lace, roared:
"Here we have been waiting all day
for somebody to tell us where to go.
And nobody has been near us."
"Let me see," said the Governor, "I
am vice-president of the Union League
Club. Maybe they would let us In
there."
A few minutes later the Governor
and his secretary, piloted by Commis
sioner Woods, pushed their .way
through the Fifth avenue crowd for
sixteen blocks and reached the Union
League clubhouse at Thlrtv-ninth
street. There a small stand had been
erected.
The Governor ascended it just as
the Plattsburg "rookies" were tramp
ing along. He cheered them and they
Baluted him. Later he saw a prt
of the National Guard.
Asked what comment he had to
make upon the discourtesy he had ex
perienced, the Governor replied:
"None whatever. I can take care of
myself in a pinch."

MISHAP EVENS UP LEGS
Man's Longest Limb Is Shortened
When Hone Is Broken.
DES MOINES. Ia,, May 20. Fifteen
vears ago Frank Cervatl fell and
broke his left leg. When the bones
mended the leg was two inches shorter
than the other. About ten weeks ago
ho again slipped and fell, this time
breaking his right leg. When released
from the Iowa Hospital, Cervatl was
able to walk again and found that both
his legs were now exactly the same
length.
"It's & better job than surgery could
have done," said the hospital medical
men.
NEWGRAR ORDERED
AT ST. HELENS YARD
Twin Screw Lumber Carrier,
Costing $135,000, to Be
-Built in 8 Months.
CALIFORNIA RUN SLATED
Bolinder Engines, tnit Handling
System, and Late Model Cargo
Ris and Gear Arrange
ment Are l-'eatures.
In eight months the St. Helens Ship
building Company is to turn out a
lumber carrier for the California &
Oregon Lumber Company, of Brookings.
Cal., that will be constructed along
the lines of a steam schooner except
that the motive power will be two Bo
linder engines of 20-horsepower each,
driving twin screws. The vejssel is to
cost about 1135,004) and will have a
lumber capacity of 650.000 feet.
The lumber concern intends using the
vessel between Brookings, which is
near Crescent City, and ian Francisco,
and the carrying capacity given is
based on fir lumber. She will be 180
feet over all, with a beam of 42.6 feet
and depth of hold of 16 feet. Other
than her. machinery, the vessel will
differ from others of the model "built
and under way on the river in that she
will handle lumber in units of about
3000 feet each, being patterned in that
respect largely after the C. A. Smith
Lumber Company's vessels, the steam
ers Nann Smith and Adeline Smith,
which load in units at the Marshfleld
plant for the San Francisco market.
New Illg Devised.
Krnest Hough, a San Francisco ma
rine architect, has patented a new
cargo rig which requires that steel
booms be used, and the gear arrange
ment differs from that utilized now on
steam schooners. ' A vessel of the gen
eral type of the one contracted for by
the St. Helens interests is on the stocks
on Grays Harbor for the E. K. Wood
Lumber Company, she having Bolinder
engines, but there are no others like
them on the Coast.
Two steam schooners being built for
the Charles R. McCormlck Company at
Astoria, at Wilson Bros." yard, are un
der way, there being 25 frames of the
first vessel in place and the keel of the
second has been laid. That firm made
a most favorable start in getting mate

GOVERNOR FREES CONVICTS
Prisoners Pardoned After Success
fully Passing Honesty Test.
AUSTIN". Tex. May 18. "The great
state of Texas remembers no more the
offense of this citizen, and bids him
godspeed through life.
The above is the language of the
closing sentence used by Governor Ker
guson in the official paper handed each
of 30 convicts just pardoned at Camp
Maory, Tex.
These 30 state convicts had been
cleaning up Camp Mabry since March
25. The Adjutant-General, anticipating
a mobilization of the Texas National
Guard, owing to the crisis in Mexico,
wanted to be prepared for the troops,
and these 30 convicts were detailed
from the penitentiary to fix up the
regular camping ground of the Texas
soldiers. They performed their duties
well and faithfully, at no time under
guard, being placed upon their honor
not to escape. They made their own
rules for the government of their camp
and the work accomplished saved the
state 2000.
The Governor was not satisfied with
telling the convict that the state burled
the memory of his past offenses, but
recommended him to the people as one
to be trusted.
This placing of convicts at work in
some country .place on their honor was
first tried by ex-Governor Colquitt two
years ago. Several hundred were rut
to work on the public roads near Lin
dale. One man only ran away, but the
convicts themselves brought him back.
Governdr Ferguson now proposes to
extend this plan as far as possible and
give every 'short-term convict a chance
to redeem himself. Within the next
few days he will take 30 more from the
penitentiary and prison farms and put
them to cleaning up the ground where
Fannin and his men were massacred
by the Mexicans in 1836,.which is to be
made a state park.

9top Humane Society. .
Once more the Or gron Humane So
ciety has run up against grief in its
proposals for dog pound sites. After
having been turned down on five pro
posed sites within the city the society,
through President Cowperthwait, has
settled on a site on Foster road near
Ints Junction just outside the city.
The selection has raised the wrath of
Dr. Harry McKay, who has a beauti
ful suburban home and park on a tract
adjoining that selected for the pound.
Dr. McKay called on members of the
City Council yesterday and urced them
to prohibit the pound from being es
tablished on the site. He declares that
the pound will ruin his suburban place,
which represents an investment of
$35,000.
Dr. McKay says the Humane Society
has negotiated for the purchase a littln
more than one acre and to lease an
acre and a half. Humane Society of
ficials say that the latest site is idcAl.
Dr. McKay says he will take his
fight into the courts if necessary.
There is a possibility also of steps
being taken by members of the City
Council to force the society to accept
the site offered the city free of charge
near the incinerator.
