TO BE GALA OA that Attorney "Saved" $5000 From Payment Which He Kept as ' Fee Is Alleged. Circumstances surrounding; the trans action In which Mrs. Permelia L. Tyler, aged SS. paid out $20,000 in valuable stocks to Attorneys George A. Hall and John N. Slevera to settle matters with Harry Henderson, who had brought J 100.000 alienation suit against the bed ridden woman, were told on the wit seas stand In the court of Circuit Judge Kximurh yesterday by William M. Tyler, son of the aged plaintiff. According to his story. Hall, who represented Henderson demanded $50, 000 In settlement, and Sievers. who rep resented Mrs. Tyler, urged her to settle rather than fight the case. Hall was raid to have pictured pentitentlary doors yawning before both Tyler and his aged mother if the money was not paid. Compromise was ellectea in tne payment of $20,000. Attorneys Visit Bedside. Both attorneys went to the horns of Mrs. Tyler as she lay ill in bed. Sunday. January 87. 191S. without Invitation, to secure this payment, testmea lyier. The woman asked time that she might consult her nephew in Kansas City. n ho bandied most of her business at fairs, but was refused respite. -uh. no. we have got to get settled up right away. We want to get these peo. pie out of the state and save your son and yourself from losing everything and going to the penitentiary," Hall is maid to have remarked. "Mother was crying by that time and saying that she did not want to see her son or herself go to the penitentiary, -and told me to get some stocks from her safe deposit bos In a closut." testi fted Tyler. At a previous meeting, when the $10,000 settlement was first broached. Tyler said he protested. "This doesn't Jook right to me. It looks like a frame up. and I think I had better see the dis trict attorney about filing charges for blackmail." Tyler, who is known as "Cap" to acquaintances, said Hall an swered. "Don't do anything like that. Cap. The woman will go to the grand jury and a woman can make them be lieve anything and you will go to the penitentiary." The woman referred to was Kthel Henderson, whose husband had brought the suit. SSOOO Is Saved. Tyler said the attorneys remained but a very few minutes after getting the stock and that Sievers later told him that he and Hall took the Hender sons to Vancouver in an automobile. They have not been seen since. Later Tyler said Sievers telephoned him and aid that he had saved Mrs. Tyler Iiooo. Asked how that was. he replied that he had told Hall he had seen Mrs. Tyler again and that she refused to pay more than $15. 00m. so that he made liall ac cept $15,000 Instead of $20,000. Tyler said he thanked the attorney and asked him to come out to their house to settle his fee with Mrs. Tyler. He declared that Sievers replied that he would keep the $5000 he had "saved as his fee. Sievers refused to see his mother for months, declared Tyler, and only visited her under threat of prosecution. There Mrs. Tyler tried to get him to pay back all but $1000 or $2000 of the $5000 he had kept, said Tyler. He refused, but finally gave a check for $S00. Tyler aid this was part repayment only, but that the check Sievers had produced in evidence bore "in full settlement of all matters and claims." Tyler said he did not remember seeing those words on the check when it was given to his mother. Mrs. Henderson Was Honsekeener. Tyler testified that Mrs. Henderson had acted as housekeeper for him for about two years. He said the first trouble came when he had decided he could dispense with her services and gave her notice. She said nothing at the time but later told him she must have $5000 settled on her. Tyler said he had paid her wages and furnished board and room to Harry Henderson when he visited her and thought she bs4 nothing more coming. That Sievers came to him and advised that he had better settle as Mrs. Hen derson had put the matter In the hands of Hall, was also testimony of Tyler. He finally settled for $1500, he said, on the advice of Sievers. who said. "Well. I tell you. Cap. If you don't pay this. Hall will sue you and your mother for $3000 and probably get more than be offers to settle for." . The attorneys asked Tyler to sign a receipt. He said he could not see why he should sign one as he was paying the money but that Sievers replied, "oh, Cap. It's a matter of form." "Now. looka here, have you read this? Is It all right for me to sign?" Tyler said he asked Sievers. to which Sievers replied. "Yes." Tyler said he signed what he supposed was a receipt, but which in fact was a release of Mra Henderson to Tyler, of all claims and obligations Incurred while she was liv ing with Tyler as his "common law wife." HraerrMB Had Several Sasaea. Henderson was first introduced to Tyler as H. I Adams, brother-in-law, and later as Harry Henderson, brother f Mrs. Henderson, aaid the witness. He declared his first knowledge that Henderson was his housekeeper's hus band was when the alienation suit was filed. - Cross-examination was begun by Attorney Joseph E. Heuges late yester d.iy In which he endeavored to establish the presence of extremely friendly re lations between Tyler and his house keeper. Introducing letters containing turn terms of endearment as "peach." 'baby doll." "sweetheart," "pet." "darl ing." "honey baby." "lovely little devil," and "my Portland rose." written by Ty ler to his housekeeper in 191. Tyler denied that he meant anything by "1 am hungry for a good beefsteak. 1.0 hugs and kisses." and like expres sions In his letters, saying "It was Just a little 'hot air that I would write to any girl." He insisted that all he had written he had meant "in a good moral way." but that he was "falsifying all tne way through the letter." and that be didn't really mean what he had said. The witness became recalcitrant as the questions poured at him concerning Implied relations with Mrs. Henderson and refused to answer several until or dered to do so by the court.

LLUSION CAUSES SCARE Trick of Snn Frightens Cottage Grove Children. COTTAGE GROVE. Or.. June 15. (Special.) A peculiar case of illusion badly frightened the children of the W. K.

All .the children present were similarly affected, little Leston Durham being also of the party. That he illusion was real to them was testl- ied to by the fact that all ran scream ing from the house.
