THE 3IORXIXG OREGONIAN FRIDAY, OCTOBER 5, 1917. POISONED CANDY TRIAL IS OPENED Object of Alleged Plot of Jeal ous Wife Tells of Get ting Package. CONFESSION IS REPUDIATED Mrs. Kdna Gregory Declared to Have Attempted Iifc of May Carter Because Husband Spent Too Much Time Witli Her. The trial of Mrs. Edna Gregory, of Pendleton, on a charge of having sent a box or candy, poisoned with arsenic, through the mails to May Carter, a -w oman of whom she was Jealous, began before Federal Judge Bean yesterday. Miss Carter, an employe of a Pendle ton hotel, was one of the first wit nesses called by the Government. She related how nearly she had come to giving the poisoned candy to the little daughter of the proprietor of the hotel where she worked. - That she did not. she testified, was due to an uneasy presentiment of danger and to the chance that, returning from a trip to Portland the day before, she had brought a box of candy home with her. She gave this candy to the child and kept the candy that had come to her by mail. Statement In Repudiated. When she opened the box later and looked at the candy, she told the jury, she noticed a queer white powder on eome of the bon bons. She sent the candy across the street to a physician, who immediately sent back the infor mation that the powder was arsenic. Then she took the candy to the Pendleton postoffice, where Postoffice Inspector Peacock happened to be at the time. He immediately took charge of the case and the arrest of Mrs. Gregory followed his investigation. A confession bearing Mrs. Gregory's signature on each of its two typewrit ten pages, but which she has since de clared she made under duress, was not introduced in evidence yesterday. Another witness called by United States Attorney Reames for the Gov ernment was W. P. Harding, a Portland chemist, who said that he had found more than three gains of arsenic on the candy when he had analyzed it. One grain, he testified, would have caused death. Mrs. Ethel Gregory, a sister-in-law of the defendant, gave testimony against her. Jealousy Alleged .Motive. The candy was mailed to Miss Carter on February 9 of this year. Mrs. Ethel Gregory visited Mrs. Edna Gregory and remained two weeks with her in March. She testified that Mrs. Gregory confid ed to her that she had sent the candy to May Carter because she was jealous of her. The witness said that Mrs. Gregory remarked that if any trouble came out of it, she was going to blame it to "the boys," meaning her husband, Carl Gregory, and the witness' husband, Jess Gregory. Carl Gregory is to be a witness later for the Government, as will Postoffice Inspector Peacock. Mrs. Gregory was married to Carl Gregory at Spokane in September, 1916. In February, 1917, they removed to Pendleton and on the ninth of that month the candy was mailed to Miss Carter. The Government alleges that Mrs. Gregory was jealous of Miss Carter, who had known her husband before their marriage, and that she said her husband spent too much time with Miss Carter. B. F. Mulkey is attorney for the de fendant. The case is being handled for the Government by United States Attorney Reames and Assistant United States Attorney Beckman. NO BIDS SUBMITTED JOB OF CLEARING SITE FOR NEW TERMINAL NOT SOl'CHT. Chief Engineer IS Authorized to Start Operations Employing Day Labor, . for Work Must Be Rushed. Absence of bids for clearing the grain elevator and water terminal site tit St. Johns, which, were asked for by the Commission of Public Docks to be opened yesterday, was accepted by the Board as indicating the scarcity of certain kinds of labor. The portion of the land to be cleared has a growth of cottonwood and brush and it is believed by the Commission that the wood could be disposed of to paper mills, while the plan is to cut the brush and cover it with material dredged from the channel. It was de cided to give Chief Engineer Hegardt authority to proceed with the clearing by day labor, as the work must be ex pedited. Lyon & Son were awarded a contract for excavating the site of the elevator, so the foundation work can be con tracted for shortly. It was estimated that 23.200 cubic yards of material will be removed and the firm bid 36 cents a yard, while Giebisch & Joplin bid cents a yard or 117,400 for the entire grading. The material will be used for filling. The Port of Portland Commission went through the formality of filing a bid for dredging a slip at the eleva tor property, specifying that the dredge Portland be used at $300 a day. To the Jacobsen Construction Com pany was awarded a contract for the construction of a pile and timber bulk head and a timber trestle for the dredge discharge pipeline. Pacific Coast Shipping Xotes.

Another message, dealing with the movement of sailing vessels that might attempt to enter the war zone, was as follows: - "Withhold clearance any sailing ves sel if any part of her voyage would bring her within danger zone. Ad vise shippers when presenting licenses with export declarations that the 11- ense will be inoperative if . goods are to be shipped on such sailing vessels, and that application to make shipments on such vessels must be made to Bureau Export Licenses." IFE BOATS IN DEMAND THREE PLANTS IX PORTLAND DIS TRICT ARE BISV. Motorship Construction Company Has Orders for 300 and Im Increas ing; Size of Its Plant. Three lifeboat plants established in this district within the past few months, the Pacific and Tregoning yards at Portland and the Motorship Construction Company at Vancouver, have found an excellent field, for the demand for lifeboats and liferafts ap pears to increase every week. Metal and wooden boats are being turned out, and as every new ship on the Pacific Coast must have boats and some of them rafts as well, the Industry has developed rapidly. Merrill A. Reed, of the Motorship Constructivn Company, said yesterday additional space was necessary at the Vancouver plant, so another building. by ISO feet, is going up. We have built 71 lifeboats since the plant began operations and have orders for about 300 boats and liferafts," he said. In addition the company has contracts for two cannery tenders, each 45 feet long, which will be fitted with gasoline engines of 30 horsepower, and contracts are closed also for four bar rawling boats, 30 feet long, each to have a 34-horsepower engine. Sixty-seven men are employed at the Vancouver yard, and all boat parts are standardized. Two boats are finished daily. NAVY-YARD WAGES SET AVERAGE INCREASES Or lO PER CENT ALLOWED IN CONFERENCE. Pay In Higher Ratings Increases 40 Cent a Day Minor Questions to Be Adjusted. WASHINGTON. Oct. 4. Agreement on Navy-yard wage scales, represent ing a general average increase of more than 10 per cent, was reached today by Assistant Secretary Roosevelt and the presidents of the International Trades Unions. The new schedule goes into ertect November 1 for one year. The department issued the following statement: 'The new scale represents an aver age increase of considerably over 10 per cent. In the skilled trades, both metal and wood-working, this increase in the higher ratings will be 40 cents or more per day and the department will continue the plan of reducing the number of ratings in each trade from five to three. This will give substan tial Increases to the lower paid men. A committee is to be appointed to adjust certain minor questions In volving localities or special trades. It is felt by all who have taken part in these conferences that this ad justment is an important step and will do much to assist In the effective prosecution of the war work of the Government." Details of the new scales as they will affect the various yards have not been worked out. Marine Xotes.

EXPERTS ARE IN DEMAND War Boards Pay Salaries to Ac countants and Statisticians at Rates Double Those of Es- . tablishcd Departments. OREGOXIAX XEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, Oct. 4. According to Chairman Hurley, of the Shipping Board, a con ference of shipbuilders, shipyard labor and the Shipping Board soon is to be called to consider and work out a scheme which will put an end to a practice that is now greatly hamper ing work in many of the shipyards having Government contracts the practice of enticing labor to leave one yard to work in another where wages, hours or other conditions are better. There must be stability in the ship building Industry, according to Mr. Hurley. And yet, according to testimony, re cently given before the House commit tee on appropriations, the Government itself is suffering from this very prac tice, and the Shipping Board or its I bmergency Fleet Corporation is one of the worst offenders. Secretary Red field and Director Rogers, of the Cen sus Bureau were before the committee asking for an appropriation to employ six accountants at $3600 each. Inci dent to this request, the following il luminating testimony was given: Mr. Rogers I find it difficult to get men competent to perform this tech nical statistical won: at $3000. The Chairman You have them now? Mr. Rogers No. sir; they are leaving the bureau. The Chairman Where are they going? Mr. Rogers I lost one statistician who was in the division of manufactur ers that I had employed at $3000. He went to the tariff board at $4500. We lost one at $2000. who was In the manufacturers division. He went to the Emergency Fleet Corporation at $4000; Just double the compensation. 1 had one in my accounting division at $1800. He went to the Council of Na tional Defense at $2500. Secretary Redfield A man by the name of Ellsworth was taken from the director of the census by the Coun cil of National Defense. They are try ing to get him away from that Job to another service at $3600. You paid him what, Mr. Rogers? Mr. Rogers $1800. The Chairman The whole Govern ment service will be demoralized during this emergency. Mr. Rogers Let me say, Mr. Chair man, that if we have the power to do it we stop it, but you have great dis content while the salaries are so un equal. Secretary Redfield The weakness lies in this: The giving to independent establishments, like commissions, lump sum appropriations with no statutory requirements and in calling upon the regular departments to meet certain statutory requirements. They are free to move and we are helpless. They can lawfully do It and we cannot lawfully prevent it. That is where the weak ness lies. Movements of Vessels. PORTLAND. Oct. 4.
