MOTHER AND SON TO
FACE MURDER TRIALS
Formal Charges to Be Filed
Today in Bryan Case.
VICTIM'S BODY ANALYZED
Several Thousand Dollars Found in
Deposit Box Belonging to Mrs.
eniitz Home Is Searched.
EEATTLR, Wash.. Oct. 23. fSpe
cial.) William Fay Kaly, 22, and hla
mother, Mrs. Anna Ealy Nemitz, will
be formally charged with the murder
of Mrs. Elizabeth Bryan of Puyal'iup,
whose body was found last Monday at
Jones point. Mount Baker Park,
by Captain of Detectives Charles
Tennant in the morning, according
to a statement made by him tonight.
"The case has not been as satisfac
tory as I would have had it." Captain
Tennant said; "but I believe we have
obtained sufficient evidence on which
to charge both with the murder of
Airs. Bryan."
Captain Tennant refused to discuss
the nature of the evidence obtained
by him. but it is believed that it Is
based principally on the movements
of mother and son Sunday nipht. the
nisht of the murder, and Monday,
and the finding of the several thou
sand dollars in the safe'deposit box
belonging: to them. Mrs. Bryan was
robbed of $4500 by the person who
murdereJ her.
Jlcmili Home Searched.
Ealy continued his self-possession
In the face of sharp interrogations by
the detectives and Mrs. Nemitz' at
titude is described as being some
what defiant.
The Nemitz home was searched
twice today on secret search war
rants obtained by the detective cap
tain and Deputy Prosecuting Attor
ney T. H. Patterson. Harry Nemitz,
the husband, said that nothing was
taken from the house following the
search. Tennant and Patterson de
clined to discuss what they searched
for or what they obtained.
Meanwhile, out at the University
of Washington, Professor William
Jjehn, chemist, was at work in his
laboratory making an analysis of the
contents of the murdered woman's
Btomach to determine if she had been
poisoned or drugged.
Slayer Method Not Known.
Since the body of Mrs. Bryan was
found Monday morning, detectives
have been uncertain, they admit, as
to the exact method used by the slay
er. They have maintained a theory
that she may have been drugged with
a motive of robbery, and that she was
struck in the face and then strangled
only when the drug failed to render
her entirely unconscious.
The police are said to have estab
lished, through a bellboy at tha Plaza
hotel, where Mrs. Bryan registered
Saturday afternoon, the fact that she
g-ot Ealy on the telephone Saturday
evening, and that he later visited her
at the hotel.
Detectives working in Puyallup have
revealed some interesting but not
especially pertinent facts regarding
Mrs. Bryan and Ealy.
Mrs. Bryan had for years possessed
an uncanny fear of violence at the
hands of men.
This queer sidelight on the grue
some tragedy was disclosed today by
the mother of George W. Bryan, hus
band of the murdered woman.
Woman's Fear Recalled.
"She always imagined and feared
that men were following her," said
Mrs. Bryan. "Whenever she went out
alone at night, on returning home
she would say she had been followed
bv a man."
Bryan's mother is the authority for
the statement that her daughter-in-
law's troubles began when she left
Puyallup for Seattle last July, taking
her infant daughter with her, lor
five weeks' vis-it with friends.
At the end of the five weeks, Mrs.
Bryan says, her daughter-in-law re
turned home dissatisfied and dis
contented with her lot a vivacious
young woman doomed to the quiet,
insipid life of a small town, when
she yearned for bright lights, the
aters, gay friends and a good time,
One day the early part of October,
Mrs. Bryan said, the younger woman
went to Seattle again; when she came
back she is said to have treated her
husband with distant coolness, which
grew more frigid day by day unti
on October 10 they agreed to sep
arate.
bers and regular patroits of the club.
The Sporting club occupied an al
most palatial house on the fashionable
Hohenzollern strasse. When the mili
tary police descended on the club
arrested its president. Count
ti di Mombello. who. when Dut
ial before a military court, ex
plained, rather falterinelv. that he
had been elevated to his high office
only to attract aristocratic patronage.
Further testimony disclosed that Po
lice President Richter of Charlotten
burg. a suburb of Berlin, and Police
President von Salm of Lichtenberg,
another suburb, and von Salm's two
sons have been accustomed to pursue
fickle fortune at the Sporting club.
So even the civil police are not safe
from Noske's determined raids.
The notorious "Foxtrot club," which
occupied an admiral's mansion, has
also fallen a victim to Noske's cru
sade. To capture it he employed a
large force of military police and the
highest strategy. Among the many
"guests" arrested, those who protest
ed loudest declared they were army
officers, but had only visiting cards
to prove their claim.
Under martial law the lid is being
clamped so tightly on Berlin that even
perfectly harmless social clubs and
associations have been warned that
they must close promptly at 11:30
P. M. else the military police will in
vade them.

SPEEDING IS CONDEMNED

Attorney-General Informs District
Attorney Evans Highways Are
for Public Use.
SALEM, Or.. Oct. 23. (Special.)
Conversion of the public roads of
Oregon into speedways . by careless
and dangerous automobile drivers is
condemned in a lettei prepared today
by Attorney-General Brown and ad
dressed to District-Attorneys Walter
Evans of Multnomah county. Glen R.
Metsker of Columbia county . and
asper J. Barrett of Clatsop county.
The attorney-general's communication
makes special mention of the recent
peed record set by Forrest Bradley
Mount Scott, who drove an auto-
obile from Astoria to Portland, a
istance of 105 miles, in two hours
nd 21 minutes.
"Complaint has been made to this
ffice that the highway between
Portland and Astoria has been made
speedway on which automobile
dealers are endeavoring to hang up
record for their cars, says the at
torney-general's letter, "and in so
oing flagrantly violate a criminal
aw or this state.
The specific instance complained of
is the alleged unlawful speeding upon
the highway between Astoria and
Portland by Forrest Bradley of
Mount Scott at the Wheel, accom
panied by George V. Adams, sales
man for the C. L. Boss Auto company.
While no direct evidence has been
furnished to this office in support
the alleged violation of the speed
aw. an account of the unlawful
peeding of the parties appeared in
The Oregonian under date of October
No doubt witnesses can be had
the violation , of the law by the
arttes named.
'The state.of Oregon is being bond-
d for millions of dollars to provide
lghways for the public and no man,
whether he rides in an automobile
not, has any right to make travel
over such highways dangerous."
Ex-Soldiers Made Citizens.
SALEM, Or., Oct. 23. (Special.)
Jacob Fuhrer, William James Bone
nd Trgyve Petterson Heiderstrom. all
f whom served in the United States
forces in the war with Germany, to
day were admitted as citizens in the
Marlon county circuit court. Ten
ther applications for citizenship also
were considered by the court.

BERLIN, Oct. 23. (Special Cable.
Old-time lovers of music have th
idea that opera will not flourish under
sl democracy unless, indeed, the op
eratic soil is well sown with money
The very recent premier of Han
Pfitzner s "Palestrina was pro
claimed beforehand as the greatest
musical event since Parsifal. The re
suit was a tremendous demand for
tickets. The state opera charged fou
times as much for admission as d
the royal opera on like occasions.
One does not care to pay fourfold in
order to be democratic and drop th
w-ord "royal" from a temple of music.
At the first performance opera go
ers paid $25 for a box seat and $1
for an orchestra seat, something un
precedented even in the Hohenzol
lerns' most artistic days. The price
provoked howls of protest, includin
the complaint that war profiteers oc
cupied the best seats.
There was another novelty on the
first night that did not make fo
democracy. Those who patronized th
buffet had to piry a dollar for a sand
wich. If they indulged in edibles fo
which knives, forks and plates are
needed, they had to hand over a sub
stantial deposit to assure the return
of the silverware and china. It was
explained that the royal opera sus
tained heavy losses in such table fur
nishings and that the state opera does
not intend to be mulcted In that man
ner. But is it democratic to suspect
that a citizen is capable of carrying
away a souvenir?
American first-nighters pronounced
"Palestrina" to be excessively long
winded and featureless and could see
no future for it on Broadway.
Some amusing incidents attend Min
ister of Defense Noske's attempts to
moderate the excesses of niftht life
here. For example his soldiers re
cently raided the Sporting club, main
tained by a very fast gambling clique.
Berlin was astonished to learn that
two ot her police chiefs were mem-

Adv.
A. Mitchell Palmer and Senator
Pomerene Known- to Be In
Field for 192 0 Nomination.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU
Washington, Oct. 23. It being prac
tically settled that President Wilson,
by reason of th break in his health,
will not be a candidate for a third
term, there is a very perceptible
awakening on the part of democratic
candidates.
Subterranean efforts In behalf of
the McAdoo candidacy are 'being car
ried on actively, while two other can
didates are more openly in the field.
One of these is A. Mitchell Palmer,
attorney-general, and the other is
Senator Atlee Pomerene of Ohio. - The
Pomerene candidacy is being pro
moted by the organization of, Pome
rene clubs in many states, while
Palmer is depending on a tour of 22
states, about to be started, to famil
iarize tne democratic party of the na
tion with his qualifications..
The success of Palmer depends
largely on the success of his fight on
profiteers, which up to, this time has
not been an emphatic success. He has
made all the noise Vfa wide-awake
candidate, but has not achieved as
much in bringing down prices as
might be expected of a first-class
attorney-general.
Pomerene'a Issue Bolshevism.
Pomerene. as told in these dis
patches before, has chosen to make
the issue on bolshevism, and among
politicians he is regarded as more
farseeing than his two rivals because
of the general suspicion that radical
ism is to be the big issue on which
the next campaign will turn.
But the McAdoo candidacy is the
most powerful of all because of the
firm political groundwork which he
was able to lay while secretary of the
treasury and director-general of rail
roads. This candidacy is suffering,
however, from the attacks that are
being made upon it quietly within the
party by certain . democrats who
charge that Mr. McAdoo is trying to
capitalize his relationship to the pres
ent W hite House occupant and to use
the administrative machinery to make
himself his father-in-iaw's successor.
Barney Baruch, who qualified as
financial adviser to the peace com
mission in Paris by selling short on
the New York stock exchange in De-
cembeV, 1916, and cleaning up approx
imately 1435.000 in one day, is the
head and shoulders of the McAdoo
boom and, although not an old war
horse in politics, he is admittedly
about the best thing to be had in the
shape of a campaign manager.' To
begin with, he has money and he has
friends. W ith his money he has been
making more friends, as evidenced by
the very lavish entertaining he has
been doing in Washington since the
industrial conference has been in ses-
sio.
Baruch Works Day and TVIght.
He labors hard in the conference
during the day to bring labor end cap
ital together and at night devotes his
time to bringing himself and some of
the most potent men in the democratic
party together. Such efforts are-like
ly to land the nomination for the
presidency for Mr. McAdoo, notwith
standing the fact that other candi
dates choose to make their contest on
issues.
There is no sentiment about Baruch.
He is a speculator in stocks. He cares
nothing about what is back of the
stock or what its par value may be a
year hence. With him it is what it is
worth for immediate returns. He does
business on intuition and not on is
sues, as, for example, on the occasion
when he cleaned up the $135,000 on
the stock exchange. Intuition told
him that Mr. - Wilson was going to
send a note to Germany the next day

which would do great things to the
stock market. Nobody else knew it.
He bought short, and look what hap
pened. Intuition is a great animal.
He sees in McAdoo a winner for
the nomination and he is for Mc
Ado and he is not sparing anything
to see that McAdoo's boom keeps
moving. The charge already has been
made that the democratic national
committee is using the $2,000,000 cam
paign fund already collected to pro
mote the McAdoo candidacy, but this
probably is not fair. Men high- in
the organization, however. Jo no-,
conceal their own personal interest
in the former secretary of the treas
ury and they expect him to be nom-irt-ted.
McAdoo's Record Known.
His nomination will make th is-
sue clear, whether he ever makes a
political declaration between now and
convention time or not. He I on
record as favoring government own
ership of railroads and all that is
lacking Is for him to say whether he
indorses the Plumb plan. The 're
publican party is Just as strongly
committed against government own
ership, so the voter can easily take
his choice and know what he is
getting.
Attorney-General Palmer is a be-
.wixt and ' between candidate. At
least that is the construction placed
on his recent criticism of the Poin
dexter resolution to force him to de
port radical aliens. His utterances in
this connection make it appear that
he is at least seeking not to offend
the radically inclined within hi own
party, while making a fairly good
record In the prosecution of rtdicalr
