Judge Langguth Says He Will
Impose Heavy Fines and
. Long Terms in Future.
JUDGE M'GINN IS RAPPED
Increase in Bootlegging and Drunk
enness Charged Circuit Jur-
. ist's Acts Said to Have Ens
cou raged Lawbreakers.
Municipal Judge Langguth is wroth.
Yesterday afternoon from the bench of
city justice he delivered his judicial
ukase to bootleggers and blindpiggers,
and to all who think to profit by
adroit avoidance of the prohibition law.
Henceforth, declared Judge Langguth,
violators of the prohibition law ap
pearing before his court may expect
scant courtesy and be assured that they
will receive lea.
He announced his belief that light
sentences in the past had encouraged
bootlegging and illicit retailing of
liquor, and issued a warning that the
future policy of the court would be
one of disastrously heavy fines or long
terms of imprisonment
Cull Fine Called Mistake.
"I am convinced that bootlegging has
been rapidly on the increase for two
months," said Judge Langguth, "al
though the officers have been doing
good and conscientious work. Yet we
could use more officers. It is also my
candid observation that drunkenness is
increasing because of bootlegging. They,
must be figuring that there is a big
profit in it, a margin of recompense
even after they have paid the penalty.
"It is my opinion that we have been
making a mistake in imposing cash
fines. Hereafter I shall impose a heavy
fine or a Jail sentence. In cases of
appeal the bond will be very high. They
must know that if they are caught jail
await3 them."
Deputy District Attorney Deich asked
the privilege of expressing his opinion,
which took the turn of a back-handed
compliment for Circuit Judge McGinn.
Jndse McGinn Blamed.
"I agree with all your honor has
aid." remarked Mr. Deich, "but we
must consider that the wise attorney
or the wise bootlegger laughs at this
court so loner as Judge McGinn pre
sides in the Circuit Court. He threw
several of our best cases out of court
on appeal, declaring that he would not
consider evidence secured through the
efforts of our officers.
"Within 10 days after those decisions
we received reports of 'soft drink'
places being opened for illicit liquoY
traffic We had to fight hard to get
those convictions. The evidence was
plain and convincing.
"In one instance the parties pleaded
guilty in Judge McGinn's court, and he
tried to get them to change their plea.
They declined, because of a prior un
derstanding with the Distirct Attor
ney's office, and he contented himself
with imposing a 500 fine and suspend
ing it.
Bootlestgrers Declared Encouraged.
"Law-breakers and bootleggers have
taken great encouragement from the
attitude of the higher court," declared
Mr. Deich.
"We have purposely asked for
mailer fines." concluded Mr. Deich.
"rather than have the defendant take
an appeal and see our case thrown out
of court."
Judge Langguth and Deputy District
Attorney Deich commiserated together
upon the condition of affairs in the
Circuit Court, which, both agreed, was
responsible for the increase of illicit
liquor sales, but the court remained
positive in the manifesto of "no mercy"
for future offenders.

SLEEP-WALKING FATAL
I.1TTI.K GIRL. FALLS OIT OF" WIN
DOW TO HER DEATH.
Body of Lillian Cnnnlnsnam, Aged 7,
Is Pound L. InB in Alley Six Hours
KollovrinK Tragic End.
Sleep-walking is believed to have
brought death to Lillian Cunningham.
7 years old. who fell from a fourth
story window of the Alton Rooming
House. 381 Yamhill street, shortly be
fore midnight or early yesterday morn
ing. The child's body, clad in night
garments, was found on the alley
pavement at 7:30 yesterday morning by
Elmer Baker, a barber, of 173 West
Park street.
The little giri was put to bed by her
mother, in a fourth-story bedchamber,
at 10 o'clock the previous evening. An
hour later her father entered the room
and found the child asleep. He extin
guished the lights and left the room.
Ten&ntd of a basement apartment say
that they heard the noise of a fall at
11:30, but presumed that someone on
the upper floors had thrown rubbish in
the alley.
The child's body lay in the alley
practically the entire night, according
to Deputy Coroner Smith, who declared
that death must have occured at least
six hours previoua to Baker's shocking
discovery. City Detectives Hellyer.
Tackaberry and Hawley investigated
the circumstances and were convinced,
witn Deputy Coroner Smith, that the
death was solely of an accidental na
ture. Deputy Coroner Smith caused the re
moval of the body to the public morgue,
where an examination revealed a badly
fractured skull and numerous bruises
about the body. An inquest was not
considered necessary and the body was
conveyed to the undertaking parlors of
the. Holman Company, where funeral
preparations ara being madf.

WAR'S END EXPECTED
GERMAN THINKS IK ALLIES DON'T
W1X SOOX THEY'LL QX'IT.
Werner I.utx, I'nable te Return
Fight. Is Preparing; to Pay
Visit When Peace Comes.
There Is little doubt in the mind of
Werner Lutz. reservist in the artillery
service of the German army, that the
European war will come to a close be
fore the beginning of Winter. Mr. Lutx
came to America six months before the
beginning of the war and because "our
friends the British" maintain such a
strict watch on the high seas, .he did
not return to do service for his coun
try. Mr. Lutz arrived in Portland yes
terday and is on his way to California.
He is touring the Coast Just for pleas
ure's sake.
So confident is Mr. Lutz that the war
will be ended before Winter that he
gave up a good position with & knit
goods house in Milwaukee and started
on a pleasure trip that will consume
Several months. He expects to be able
to end this pleasure trip by a trans
Atlantic trip to his home in Stuttgart.
Germany.
"If the allied forces succeed in pub
ting through the offensive they have
started I think the Germans will De
ready for peace." said Mr. Lutz yester
day. "But if they do not. then 1 tninK
the allies will see they are beaten and
will be ready to quit. In either event
the war, I think, must end. Dy late
Fall."
Mr. Lutz says the only war incon
venience he has discovered so far is
the strict censorship maintained by the
British. He says that months elapse
often before mail is received from his
home in Germany.
