Mrs. Anna Petersen Is
Driver's Victim.
ACCIDENT SEQUEL TO PARTY
H. L. Putnam Tells of Wild Ride
With Women and Liquor.
NO WARNING IS HEARD
Death Car Dashes Past Another
That Hides View From Woman
and Xo Signal Is Given,
Say Several Witnesses.
Mrs. Anna Petersen, 348 East Forty
second street, was Instantly killed
when she was struck by an automobile
driven by H. L. Putman an employe
of the Oscar Huber Company, at Fifth
and Stark streets at 4:10 P. M. yester
day. Mrs. Petersen- was "crossing Stark
street, walking south, when-the large
automobile cut around another ma
chine going- east on Stark, striking
Mri Petersen and passing entirely over
her body, the police were told. '
According to several witnesses,, Put
man sounded no warning while pass
ing the other machine. "When taken
to the police station he was unable to
give a clear version of the accident.
Nurse' Efforts In Vain.
Mrs. 'H. H. Haskel, a nurse in the
offices of Dr.- Alan W. Smith, in the
Electric building, was an eye witness
and administered first aid, but her ef
forts were of no avail.
A -great deal of mystery surrounds
the case. Putman said when - arrested
that the machine was the property of
Charles Osborne, 292 Grand avenue.
He said that he met Osborne at a pool
room at Second and . Alder streets
Thursday night and. with two other
men and three young women they went
for a ride. He- further said that when
the party returned at 1 o'clock yester
day morning ho- left Osborne at ' a
downtown hotel. - j
Husband's "Whereabouts Unknown.
Deputy Coroner Smith and City De
tective Craddock spent several hours
last :- night checking up on Putman's
story, but up to a late hour had been
unable to find Mr. Osborne. Mrs. Os
borne was located at the number giv
en, but was unable to tell anything
concerning her husband's whereabouts.
She said that Mr. Osborne had worked
Thursday morning but had come home
about noon complaining of being ill.
He left the apartment about 7 o'clock
Thursday night, saying he was going
for a ride and would return soon.
The son of the landlady of the Taylor
Apartments, 292 Grand avenue, saw
Osborne alone in the machine on Grand
avenue about 9 o'clock. According to
Putman's story, he met Osborne and the
other men in the poolroom at 8 o'clock
and the party left in the machine
shortly afterwards.
Drinks ' Plentiful, He Admits.
Putman admits that considerable
liquor was consumed in the course of
the evening. He also says that Osborne
had Just been paid, as he cashed his
check for him yesterday morning.
Detective Craddock and Coroner
Smith found M. Herwlck. a black
smith, whose shop is at Fifty-second
and Division streets, who' said that he
had straightened an axle of an auto
mobile of the same make as driven by
Putman, early yesterday morning. He
was unable to give a good dlscription
of the driver of the car, but it is
thought the damaged car was the one
in Putman's possession at the time, as
he told of taking a machine to a shop
at this place. The car had evidently
been in a wreck the night before.
Charce oC Manslaughter Made.
A charge of manslaughter was placed
against Putman and his ball set at
13000. He says that he is married, but
that his wife is in Seattle.
Coroner Smith will hold an inquest
over the body of Mrs. Petersen either
today or Sunday.
Mrs. Petersen is survived by a son.
Herman Petersen, and a daughter, Miss
Hulda. Mr. Petersen has been dead
several years.
The children were prostrated when
informed of the tragedy by Coroner
Smith three hours after the accident.

Handkerchief Leads Police to Two
Men Arrested and Traces of
Chloroform Are Discovered.
In the arrest of John Lutti and B. F.
Moore at First and Madison streets
last, night the police believe they have
apprehended two "gentlemen burglars"
who, after robbing wealthy homes of
Jewelry, have re-wrought the gold and
silver and used the United States Mint
at San Francisco as a "plant" to aid
in their 'wosk. - A handkerchief led to
their undoing.
Luttl is booked at the station, on the
charge of ' robbing the home of F.
Friedlander, Jeweler, 209 Thirteenth
street, ' last week. . -Moore is held for
investigation.
A bottle of chloroform, used, the po
lice believe, to put the sleepers in the
homes they robbed into slumber, was
found in the effects -of the men, to
gether with another chemical, used
apparently to test the gold and silver.
Detectives Goltz and Howell traced
the men through a handkerchief
dropped by one of the men at the
Friedlander home. when they were op
erating. Through the laundry mark
the handkerchief was traced to one of
the men;
The detectives say they have a par
tial confession ' from Lutti, ' who has
promised to disclose other operations
today. ' A receipt for a registered let
ter, presumably carrying broken bits of
gold or melted gold to the mint at San
Francisco, was found.
OILED ROAD NOT TO BLAME
Multnomah Commissioners Say Girl
Must Have Been Speeding.
If Bessie Colwell, a public stenog
rapher, purchases a new silk dress she
cannot expect Multnomah County tc
pay the bill. This was assured when
the County Commissioners yesterday
denied her claim for $50 which she pre
sented recently because of the damage
to her silk dress when it was spattered
with oil while she was driving in an
automobile along the Portland-Oswego
road. -
On Advice of Deputy District Attor
ney Mowry, the board came to the con
clusion that the county was not at
fault, Inasmuch as.lt seemed apparent
that the oil would not have splashed
into the machine had it not been going
at a high rate of speed.

School Teacher Realises Late

DESIRE TO DIE DENIED
Wisconsin ex-State . Veterinarian Is
Declared by Affinity "Who Killed
Wife - to Have , Sacrificed
. Both tn Altar of Desire.
WAUKESHA. Wis., June 22. Miss
Grace Lusk, high school teacher, who
shot and killed Mrs. David Roberts,
wife of an ex-State Veterinarian with
whom she professed to be In love, was
served today with a warrant charging
her with murder in the first degree.
The warrent was read to her in the
hospital, where her life still hangs In
the balance from a bullet wound she
Inflicted herself after standing off the
police for half an hour.
Despite her protestations of lasting
love for Dr. Roberts, Miss- Lusk indi
cated bitterness when she was placed
under formal arrest.
Man's Freedom Protested.
"Oh God!" she called. "Are they go
ing to take me and let him go free?"
Tonight Miss Lusk's condition took a
turn for the worse and the physicians
who were constantly watching her
feared that an infection might develop
in the wound which would prove fatal.
She lost strength after the nervous ex
citement following the serving of the
warrant. '
The funeral of Mrs. Roberts will be
held tomorrow afternoon.
Miss Lusk further commented bit
terly on Dr. Roberts when one of the
unsigned masculine notes found among
her effects was called to her attention.
"It la Spring now," one of the notes
read, "and I feel that I -want to walk
with you in 'green pastures'."
Opinion of Man Changes.
"Oh, he has the maudlin and common
sentiment that characterizes only the
horse doctor," she said when reminded
of the note. "I thought his mentality
matched mine; that hi" conception of
ideals was pure and hi i intellectuality
a rock of ages, but he Is a charlatan.
He has sacrificed his wife and me on
the altar of desire." .
The wounded schoolteacher expressed
no Joy when told by physicians that
her chances of recovery were still good.
"That's too bad," she said. "I want
to die. There can be no mental nor
spiritual recovery, so why the physi

S. Sumoga, Hood River Rancher, In
-Financial Straits, Gives $5 and '
. Refuses to Cut Donation.
HOOD RIVER, Or., June 22. (Spe
cial.) The most notable example of
real sacrifice reported in the local Red
Cross drive was met with this after
noon by a team composed of F. W.
McKay, Kenneth McKay and M. Tasul,
the latter a Japanese merchant, who,
calling on Japanese berry growers,
visited the place of S. Sumoge.
As was explained by Mr. Tasul. this
Nipponese rancher has recently played
In hard financial luck. He has been
ill himself and has all but lost the
little ranch he is tilling. Despite all
this and the need to feed and
clothe ten small children, Sumoge
responded with $5. The men frankly
told him that they believed he was
exceeding his ability to give and
urged him to reduce his donation
to $1, but the Japanese man lifted his
tired shoulders and -'with dignity re
plied: "Gentlemen, I would feel dishonored
to take back any of the money. The
gift makes me happy. I only wish that
I could give $100." .
Japanese cash contributions ' will
reach approximately 8250. ' No Nip
ponese rancher visited gave less than
$5. The list was headed by the mer
chant member of the soliciting team,
who gave 820.

FURNACES TO GLOW IN 60 DAYS
Much Manganese Ore Is Mined
in Southern Oregon.
SHIP PLANTS TO BE AIDED
$100,000 to Be Spent in Im
proving Plant Idle-Since 1894,
When Price Fell Too
Low for Profit.
The old blast furnace and smelter
plant of the Oregon Iron & Steel Com
pany. occupying five acres of land
along the Willamette River at Oswego,
wve purchased outright yesterday by
William Pigott, of Seattle, head of the
Pacific Coast Company interests in this
section, with the prospect that it will
be placed in shape within about (0 days
for the manufacture of pig Iron.
This development is of great signifi
cance to the shipbuilding Industry of
Portland and environs, as the making
of 'pig iron Is the very basis of the
steel Industry.
Manganese Ore Mined In State
At the present time Pueblo, Colow Is
the only city west of Duluth and Chi
cago which is manufacturing pig iron,
and as a result of this situation great
quantities of manganese ore, mined in
Southern Oregon, have been sent all the
way to Chicago to be smeltered.
There are a number of steel roller
mills on the Pacific Coast at Los An
geles, San Francisco, Sacramento, Seat
tle and Vancouver, B. C. and the Pa
cific Coast Steel Company recently
purchased 10 acres of land along the
Willamette River below Portland, at
Wlllbrldge, where a roller mill will
undoubtedly be erected ultimately to
handle the pig iron to be turned out at
the Oswego plant. "
Plant Modern Throughout.
The big blast furnace at Oswego,
which at -the time of its construction
was the only plant of its kind on the
entire Paciflc Coast, has not been oper
ated since 1894. when the discovery
of the Mesaba range ore in Minnesota
reduced the price of pig iron so much
that the Oswego furnace could not be
operated at a profit.
The plant is of modern construc
tion throughout, and was built at a
cost of about 8300,000. Mr. Pigott said
last night that perhaps 8100,000 would
be spent in improvements before the
plant is - placed in operation, and that
the renovations and installations would
probably require about 60 days.

NO CHANGE AT PORTLAND OC
CURS DURING 24 HOURS.
Conditions Now Seem Favorable for
No Higher Water During
Present Season.
"Everything indicates there will be
no excessively high water," was the
observation last night of Assistant Dis
trict Forecaster Drake.
The Willamette River stood at 23.8
feet at 7 o'clock last night, and the
same reading was taken at 7 o'clock
in the morning and at 7 o'clock Thurs
day night, so, it is reasoned, the next
condition here will be a fall that will
continue until Monday and possibly
Tuesday.
"Temperatures are lower in the east
ern part of the district, which will
curb snow-melting," said Mr. Drake.
"Boise reported the highest maximum
temperature" today, 78 degrees, and it
ranged as low as 68 degrees at other
places. At Walla Walla it was 13 de
grees below normal. There is a high
pressure area over the ocean, which
will give us northwest winds this side
of the Cascades, and we look for
warmer weather in the interior today,
but not as warm as was experienced
last week.
"The rivers were falling everywhere
except at Portland, according to this
morning's reports, which included a
drop of 1.8 feet at Kamlah, and that is
sufficient to keep the river here from
rising. It Is difficult to say whether
the crest has been reached for the sea
son, but it looks favorable."

The' Red Cross crusade of Portland
yesterday carried Its crimson banner of
mercy far beyond the last line of
trenches, passed the 3200,000 allotment,
and pitched camp upon the height of
dreams come true.
Yesterday noon, at the manipulation '
of George L. Baker. Mayor-elect, the
hand on the great dial at Sixth and
Alder streets swept past the objective
and rested on $233,340.62. The clock
showed only the even money, but a few
hundreds mattered not to the watch
ing throng.
Crowd Toasts Hata. Cheers.
'While the police band, led by Captain
Jenkins, burst into a tune of triumph
the crowd lifted a ' cheer that rocked
the tall buildings. The hundreds of
Red Cross field workers, grouped about
the clock, tossed their hats high.
Portland was swinging the circle on
the lane that leads to 1 300,000 or
more. j-
And this befell after the workers had
wrangled good humoredly at their
luncheon, when the grillroom of the
Hotel Portland heard many a verbal
thrust and parry, and when team cap
tains had spoken of the grace with
which both poor and rich had responded
and of the few poor in spirit who
had proffered the niggard's gift.
Geaeral Reed WIaa Standardi.
The stand of flags, those of nations
in the war for democracy, hitherto held
by Captain Guy Talbot and the men of
team 16,' of the personal canvass di
vision, was torn away to rest upon, the
table of '"General" Reed, of the house-to-house
contingent, who- reported that
his gleaners had toted in Jll.SSo.S6 for
the day.
Not a great deal, as tallies went, ex
plained Captain E. L. Thompson, of
team 16, in making his report, but he
and his men were proud of the report
they had to make. It was for 81505.50.

competence, and .the largest single sum
was 3100. t

For a case of jaundiced human nature
nothing could be so beneficial as a Red
Cross luncheon in Portland. Hither
and. thither, with bewildering rapidity,
fly the yarns of the day's work bits
that renew one's faith in the good old
world. .
Measured by Incomes, for instance,
there was inspiration to be 'found in
the donation of H. G. Dorr, a Western
Union telegraph operator, who pledged
$30. -
And -when Tom Word and Fred
Larson answered Chairman Ayer's
query with the Information that they
had been working 'Since 6:30 that morn

bad signed a pledge to give 1 a month
as long as the war lasts, mere lan-

Many of the police. . reported . these
workers, had pledged from 34 to 310,
