VIENNA, Oct. 26. (By the Asso

tho national, assembly is developing
the expected line of cleavage be
tween the bourgeoise. capitalistic and
radical elements.

cently as minister of socialization,
voicing the opinions of the radicals,
resented constant appeal to the en

He said Austria deserved what she
got and that now was the time to
face the situation; to be frank with
the allies, be done with makeshifts
and exercise real self-assistance.

bodies were those of Connolly and

that the bodies were those of white

them in caskets and carried them
aboard the destroyer. Getting under
way, the destroyer steamed slowly
up the gulf to Guadeloupe bay, 20
miles to the northward, where the
plane piloted by Connolly and Water-
house was discovered on the beach.
"The two airmen had made a perfect
landing, but Mexicans subsequently
removed the motor from the fuselage.
stole all the ammunition for the two
machine guns and carried away
other equipment. The motor evident
ly was too heavy to carry away, and
it was found nearby." The wheels, en
, gine, machine guns, compass and
other equipment worth salvaging
were taken aboard the Aaron Ward,
and will be turned over to Colonel
H. L. Watson, commander of Rock
well field. . '
"We took notes of all the messages
scratched on the fuselage and wings,
the first one of which was made five
days after the men had landed. In
this the men told how they had lost
their way, how they had tried unsuccessful?-
to signal a passing boat;
their lack of success at catching fish
and the growing hunger which rapid
ly was making them weaker. On the
last week of their vigil both men
scratched a farewell message to their
mothers. At that time the men must
have been near starvation.

"On September 6 the aviators "were
picked up by two fishermen from the
Mexican sloop Laperanxa, who rowed
them in a canoe to' Bahia Los An
geles. It is doubtful if Connolly and
Waterhouse were given anything very
nourishing by the fishermen. Just

thetic fact, however, tnat Waterhouse
and Connolly could have secured food
and shelter at the Los Florres mine,
12 miles' to the southward, if they
had had the strength to traverse the
rough mountainous trail that led to
this refuge.
"Through investigation conducted
jointly by ourselves and the Mexican
court officials, we found that Water
house and Connolly had been mur
dered by two fishermen from the Es
peranza. Waterhouse 'was, stabbed to
death, evidently while he was asleep.
Connolly was killed by a terrific
blow from some instrument which
fractured his skull. He also was
stabbed. The evidence shows that
the motive evidently was robbery.
"The Mexicans, however, secured
only a few dollars.

"After the murder the Mexicans
covered the bodies lightly with sand.
A few hours .later, the morning of
September 12, to br exact, the bodies
were discovered by Cartain Jack
Ross of the American schoo-er Tro

due to he fact tha' one arm of each
of the airmen was sticking up out
of th. sand. The ind linger of
Connolly's right hand had been
severed. W..terhouse's hand and

with H. Metzas, governor of the
southern district of Lower California,
into whose territory the fishermen
had fled. The murder occurred in

Governor Cantu, and the trial of the
men, if they are captured, probably
will be conducted by courts of the
northern district." Major . Bratton
sent a long telegraphic report of his
investigation to the adjutant-general

Full military honors were accorded
the airmen as the caskets, draped

HUNT FOR SLAYERS IS BEGUN
State Department Hopes for Aid
From Cantu Government.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 26. At the dl-.
rection of the state department an
Intensive search is being made for
the murderers of Aviators Connelly
and Waterhouse, whose bodies were
found burled on the Lower California
coast, it was said by department offi
cials tonight.
A report of the finding of the two
aviators' bodies reached the depart
ment some time ago, but officials re
fused to comment on the announce
ment made today in San Diego by
Major Bratton that the officers were
killed by Mexicans.
Owing to the often-expressed
friendship of the Lower California ad
ministration of Governor Cantu, It
was considered 4n official circles to
night that the prospects' of appre

were more hopeful than had the mur

RELEASE OF SEATTLE
COUPLE TO BE ASKED
Request for Fixing of Bail in
Bryan Case Likely.
ANOTHER MAN IS SOUGHT
Captain of Detectives Says Investi
gation Is Daily Developing
3Iore Evidence Against Ealy.
SEATTLE, Wash., Oct. 26. (Spe
cial.) Developments in the Bryan
murder mystery that has taxed the
ingenuity ana resourcefulness of the
police department and the prosecut
ing attorney's oftice for nearly a
week were summarized tonight as fol
lows:
Announcement by the defense that
within a few days Justice of the
Peace John E. Gordon will be asked
to fix . bail for the release from the
city jail of William Fay Ealy and his
mother, Mrs. Anna Nemitz, charged
with the murder of Mrs. Elizabeth
Bryan; flat denial by Attorney Craw
ford E. White that the police have a
record showing that Ealy last Satur
day and Sunday visited a safe deposit
dox held jointly by him and his
mother; tne expressed belief of in
vestigating officers that Mrs. Bryan
voluntarily parted with her $4500 or
the greater, part of it before she was
killed: a search by the detectives for
a man believed to have taken the
woman or her body in an automobile
to Mount Baker Park last Sunday
night.
Precedent May Be Followed.
Should Justice Gordon grant the
request for bail he would be follow
ing two recent precedents in first
degree murder cases, that of James
Deaver, alleged slayer of H. C. Holt,
whose bonds Superior Judge Frater
fixed at S25.000, and that of E. F.
Kinestra, charged with killing John
Cicoria, released by Judge Gordon
himself on $12,000 bail.
Attorney White said he had waited
a reasonable time before his applica
tion for a writ of habeas corpus on
behalf of Ealy and Mrs. Nemitz and
that he would now give Captain of
Detectives Charles Tennant the same
consideration before presenting the
request for their admission to bail.
Captain Tennant said today that in
vestigations by himself and Deputy
Prosecuting Attorney T. H. Patter
son were developing more evidence
against Ealy daily." He charged that
counsel for the prisoners is attempt
ing to befog the real facts of the case
in an attempt to draw him out re
garding the work he has done and to
mould public opinion before the trial.
"What we have done in the case
will come out at the proper time,"
Captain Tennant said.
. Identical Money' Found.
"There are several outstanding
facts that are generally known. One
Is that Mrs. Bryan was murdered; an
other is that' she was robbed of $4500
and Mr. Patterson already has stated
that " we have found some of the
Identical money that was in Mrs.
Bryan's possession in the possession
of Ealy. You can draw your own
conclusions."
That Mrs. Bryan was met' at the
interurban depot when she arrived
shortly before 3 P. M. October 18 by
Ealy, is a point that the entire force
of city detec'-ives ha: been working
on for the past two days. Captain
Tenrrant declared several days ago
that he had learned that Ealy visited
his safe deposit box at the Day and
Night vaults shortly after 3 o'clock
on the same day that Mrs. Bryan ar
rived, denials 1 Ealy notwithstand
ing. He reasserted this point again
today when asked about it.
That Mrs. Bryan gave the $4500
she had to Ealy to put in the box for
safe keeping and that Ealy then took
her driving in an automobile is the
principal theory of the police in their
case against him.
Detectives have examined the tires
of every for rent automobile in Seat- j
tie and compared them with photo
graphs of tracks of tires found in the
soft earth where Mrs. Bryan's body
was found at Jones point.
Auto Identification Sonsht
The identification of the automo
bile would assist largely in the iden
tification of the murderer of Mrs.
Bryan. Detectives also are checking
up on automobiles seen in front or
near the safe deposit vaults on the
afternoon of October 1$.
Mrs. Nemitz. mother of William Fay
Ealy. apparently is allowing others to
do the worrying about her pending
trial on the charge of complicity In
the murder of Mrs. Bryan. Maintain
ing that she is entirely innocent of
the grave crime with which she has
been formally charged, Mrs. Nemitz
is spending most of her time in the
woman's department of the city jail,
sleeping.
According to the matron, the ac
cused woman retires early in the
evening and awakens in time vfor
breakfast. Usually she is satisfied
with a cup of coffee for her first meal
in the morning. Before the noon meal
she generally takes a short nap, and
when called for lunch she has a
splendid appetite.
In the afternoons Mrs: Nemitz, if
not busy talking with her attorney.
sleeps for an hour or so, reads part
of the afternoon and never, under any
circumstances, has referred to the
murder charg against her to the ma
tron or anyone else about the jail.
Diligent Family and Clock
Get "Cop" Day Off.
Setting back of time repeated
thrice and patrolman fall to re
port for dtatr.
w
HEN J. J. Forkan, policeman
and father, wound the family
clock Saturday night he bore in mind
the fact that the daylight saving
schedule was at an end and turned
the time-piece back one hour.
Yesterday Patrolman Forkan got
up and liesurely ate his breakfast. In
the midst of it he was called to the
telephone.
'What's the matter that you didn't
report for duty tonight? Are you
sick" asked the voice of Sergeant
Van Overn. acting captain of For
kan's relief, which goes on duty at
4:30 in the afternoon.
"What do you mean, it's only 1
o'clock." was the surprised reply of
the patrolman.
"One o'clock h " said Sergeant
Van Overn. "you'd better look at the
clock again, it's 5 o'clock."
It all happened because the patrol
man has a large and enterprising
family.
Mrs. Korkan just before she re
tired happened to think that the
clock should be turned back and so
it was retarded another hour. Then
two of the enterprising youngsters,
one at a time, happened to think
that the clock should be turned back
so they would get that extra hour of
sleep which ' was coming to them
yesterday morning.
"You might as well take your day
off today. Instead of tomorrow," said
Sergeant van Overn when it was
"
plained to him.
There was one group of the popu
lation that, heeded not the turning
back of the clocks yesterday morn
ing, Portland's contingent of babes
in arms. A Changs 1ft time meant
nothing to their, young lives. When
the pangs of hunger began to be
felt they craved to be fed even though
the clocks did. perhaps, say that it
was still an hour until dinner. And
in most cases It is safe to say that
their wishes in the matter were ob
served. '
Portland mothers were right on
the heels of the farmers in protest
ing against a change in time last
spring. They said that it would
break up baby's schedule entirely,
that the getting up and the going to
bed, the bath and the nursing would
be all wrong. And now, after six
months of the new time they have
become entirely, used to the new
schedule and are loath to Changs
back again. -
"We intend to make the change by
gradual "stages," said one Portland
mother yesterday. "We will turn the
clock back ten minutes each day and
then at the end of a week every
thing will be running excellently on
the new schedule."
Other mothers expressed similar in
tentions of thus deceiving the inno
cent babies and wishing an extra
hour off on them without theii
knowledge or consent.
"We're not going to turn our clock
back," declared one Portlander yes
terday, in a wise but secretive man
ner, and with a wink Intended to
register shrewdness and sagacity.
wire ana i nave decided to let
the clock on the dresser stay as it
has been. Then when wo wake up
in the morning and see the hands
pointing to 7 o'clock we will know
it is really only six. It will be a lot
easier to get up t six if the clock
points to seven, than if the hands
pointed to the actual time, now that
we are used to getting up an hour
earlier. It is all a matter of psy
chology." "You can't fool me on that clock
proposition." remarked one young
woman, as she wound the alarm Sat
urday night. "I want to get up early
in the morning and get a little sewing-done,
so I'm Just going to leave
the Baby Ben as 4t Is and set my
watch back to the proper time. If 1
look at the clock and it says 8
o'clock I'll get up by it and gain a
whole hour.'.'
In the uncertain morning light she
wakened, automatically reached un
der the pillow and dug out her watch.
"H'm. it says quarter to eight, I've
got over an hour to sleep yet," she
remarked, remembering she had in
tended to deceive herself, and decid
ing the bed had more charms. When
the church bell over in the next
block woke her two hours later, she
discovered she had looked at the
wrong dial and the faithful Ingersoll

SIBERIA - VETERAN HOME
HOLLAND KOSTAD, EMPLOYE
OF OREGONIAN, RETURNS.
Soldier, 18 Months Overseas, De
clares That Peasonts Are Op
posed to Kolchak Regime.
After 18 months service in the
army, one year or which, was passed
In Siberia. Roland Rostad,, ex-employe
in The Oregonian's mechanical de
partment, returned to Portland yes
terday. Mr. Rostad was a member of
company L, 31st infantry, which regi
ment returned last week to the
United States from Siberian service.
The regiment was stationed at va
rious points along the Siberian rail
road out from Vladivostok, guarding
the railway and doing police duty.
According to Mr. Rostad. several
units of the regiment saw fighting at
various times, although none of a
major character. Mr. Rostad was
stationed for the most of the time
at the village of Razdolnoe, 50 miles
west of -Vladivostok.
American troops returning from
Siberia, Mr. Rostad said, are almost
a unit in censuring the Kolchak
government, which displaced the
communist government with the aid
of the Czech forces. The Czechs were
supplied with arms and war material
by the Japanese and' other allies. The
harsh and autocratic regime insti
tuted by the Kolchak government
throughout eastern Siberia. Mr. Ros-
tak said, was responsible for the
feeling of hostility which the average
American serving in the Siberian ex
peditionary forces felt toward the
Kolchak officials. .
"The Kolchak government sup
pressed strikes on the railroad by
the simple method of shooting who
ever had the temerity to strike, and
confiscating their property," said Mr.
Rostad. -
The Siberian population with which
Mr. Rostad came in contact, the
peasant class, is against the Kolchak
regime, he declared.
Feeling between the Americans and
Japanese In Siberia, while not openly
hostile, is of a strained character and
either is openly distrustful of the
other, according to Mr. Rostad. While
Mr. Rostad said that he had heard of
clashes between the Americana and
Japanese in Siberia, no trouble be
tween the two forces had come under
his observation.
"We received little news of events
in Siberia outside of what happened
In our immediate vicinity," said Mr.
.Rostad. "And the only news we re
ceived of what was happening In the
outside world came to us in letters
and mall which we received from the
United States."

vik warships were sunk in a recent
engagement in the gulf of Finland, al-.
though it is admitted that two ar
mored ships were damaged.
Another Moscow wireless message
contains a proclamation by Trotzky,
Russian bolshevik war minister, on
the subject of England's participation
in the anti-bolfehevik operations. It
is addressed to the "red warriors" and
says in part:
"On all fronts you are meeting
with the hostile schemes of England;
on every front you find British'guna
and material and troops dressed In
English clothing. Women and chll
dren in Archangel and Astrakhan are
being killed by English flyers; Eng
lish ships are bombarding the coasts;
Lnglish gold is sowing corruption.
"We firmly believe that England
will rise before long and put a straight
Jacket on the criminals who are di

A Russian army officer who escaped
from Petrograd says that the situation
there is desperate.
REVAL. Oct. 26. The fall of Petro
grad is inevitable, according to relia
ble advices. General Yudenitch in
tends after the capture of the city not
to halt in Petrograd, but to march
forward to the line of the river Volk
hov, about 75 miles to the east of
Petrograd, where a convenient line of
