the lawless element," said Judge Sta
ple ton. "Law enforcement agrencies
can only go to a certain point, and
unless the public gives its co-operation,
these agencies must stop. It is
the plain duty of every law-abiding
citizen to do everything possible to
put an end to crime, and if a commit
tee of public safety can help in" in
forming the public as to the best
means of aiding the officials, such a
committee should be formulated with
out delay.
"Portland should be made an un
favorable spot for all criminals, and
this can only be accomplished through
the determination, of all law-abiding
citizens to jump in and do all possible
to cope with the situation.

ro-operate were outlined by Mayor
Baker in a short etatement issued by
"Some weeks ago," he said, "an or
der was made to the police bureau to
enforce the after-hours law. Loud
protests from reputable citizens fol
lowed this order, but I refused to
countermand it. More than BOO pro
tests reached me against the enforce
ment of this law.
"The public should bear In mind
that this order was made for the pro
tection of the law-abiding element of'
the city. If the honest pepole would
rrot complain because a police official
mops them after reasonable hours,
but instead would co-operate by giv
ing the official the reasons for their
appearance on the etreets, we would
have far greaer success in appre
iendins the lawless element.
Open Doors Tempt.
Another common practice which
should be corrected is the habit of
leaving doors in homes unlocked.
Much of the crime in Portland is com
mitted by petty thieves, who when
they discover a home deserted, but as
open as the plains, walk in and pilfer
unmolested.
"People should not go away on trips
DTid leave their homes unprotected.
Prominent people during the last few
months have done this with the result
that their homes have been robbed
Kach successful robbery is an incen
tive to another attempt. Such people
are given wide publicity, on the eve
of their departure, through the col
umns of the newspapers and the
crooks are ready to operate as coon
as they have reached the outskirts
of the city.
'Personally, I believe that we should
have an active committee of repre
sentative men to study the police sit
uation and needs, and who at the end
of their various investigations, inform
the public as to what it might do to
eliminate crime in this city. The
police officials are deserving of much i
credit for their work, but unless the
public will co-operate, high efficiency
cannot be given in their work,"
Club Jm Suggested.
"Protect the Home" club is the sug
gestion offered by Marshall N. Dana,
president of the Portland Ad club. In
which every resident of the city
would give some thought as to how
his home can be protected against
"The Ad club at its last meeting
suggested the 'drive safe' club," said
Mr. Dana. "It was believed that the
'inscription of the motto 'drive safe
on the wind shield of every machine
in the city would serve as a constant
reminder to the motor driver to be
cautious and thus avert accidents.
"The subject of crime has been con
sidered the sole problem of the police
officials. The average citizen feels
no personal responsibility in coping
with a crime situation. An awaken
ing of this responsibility must be had
and when had must be perpetuated.
On of the first steps that can be
taken by the public is the co-operation
in enforcing the after-hours law.
A plain explanation of duty or rea
son for the average citizen being on
the streets after hours is sufficient to
satisfy the police officials. This law
is one of the best that has been de
vised to unearth suspicious characters
nd thus prevent crime. But the nub
lie must recognize that the law is be
ing enforced for their protection if re
stilts are to be obtained."
Organization of a public safety com
mittee from the membership of the
civilin reserve organized recently by
ine American jegion is the sugges
tion to be placed by A. C. Newill,
president of the Oregon Civic leasrue.
fcefore the presidents council of the
civic Jeagues at a luncheon this noon.
Reserve Aid "Wanted.
The Civilian Reserve is the or ran
Nation which can best cope with the
present crime situation," said Mr.
Kewill yesterday "In the first place
tnis organization can designate
committee to work out the problems
and also arouse the public to the need
of action in coping with the crime
situation. In the event that subse
quent events necessitate the con
renea action or civilians in co-operating
with police officials, this or
ganization has the personnel to give
ftum service.
I believe that Chief of Police Jen
Irlns and officials of the Civilian Re
serve should be in constant consulta
tion so that an organization might be
made ready to cope with any situa
tion that may arise. When it be
comes generally known that Portland
has an organization of several thou
sand red-blooded citizens ready at a
moment's notice to step behind the
police officials in apprehending and
bringing crooks to justice, the under
world will quickly send out a warn
ing to its members to 'avoid Port
land." The present wave of crime sweep
ing Portland Is directly attributed by
George F. Alexander, United States
marshal to the "sentimental poppy
cock" which led to the abolition of
capital punishment in Oregon and
which he says seems to sway mem
bers of the state parole board in glv- 1
ln?r freedom to dangerous criminals.
"The people must disregard the
various waves of sentiment given in
behalf of the man who is ready to go
to the limit in lawlessness. Fewer
paroles will cut down crimes by hard
ened criminals and stiff jail sentences
will serve to discourage crime as an
easy occupation.
Public Too Fearful.
"The public is too fearful that it
might offend lawbreakers when it in
forms officials of their activities.
These same individuals forget they
have the same responsibilities as have
the ofticials and unless the general
public carries out this responsibility
by giving full co-operation to the of
ficials the law-enforcement agencies
cannot ao me Dest work."
The early re-opening of - the Kelly
hutte rock pile by the county is ex-
rei-ieu oy cnenu nun our t to cause
an immediate decrease in the number
or crimes committed in this county.
Hard work without pay is advocated
by Sheriff Hurlburt as one of the
most eftective means of cutting down
crime.
Keener interest in the protection of
tho home is advocated by Circuit
Judge fclapleton as the best weapon
against crime in any community.
r allure to evince an interest in the
protection of the home results in the
crumbling of one of the main pillars
of civilization, in his opinion.

According to Dr. Ben L. Norden,

pierced the body of Mr. Burgess and
one bullet passed through the body

the shooting was a .41-caliber weapon,
as one bullet of that caliber was
picked up on the floor of the tavern
by Lieutenant Thatcher the night of
the holdup and another yesterday was
dug out of the wall of the small din
ing room, where the shooting oc
curred, by Deputy District Attorney
Delch and Inspectors Pat Moloney and
Tom Swennes.
Banaster planned the holdup of the
tavern, he admitted, himself under
cross-examination ,by Inspector Pat
Moloney.
"I didn't have any Idea of killing,
though," he said.
He said that he had been at the
place and had a good time once pre
viously and was familiar with the
lay of the land." So he said he
worked out the entire proceedings
previous to the holdup and told Ogle
where to station himself and what to
do. .
Relative to just where he had se
cured the automobile in which th
three men went to St. Johns and re
turned to the house of Vincent D.
Murphy, 163 West Emerson street.
following the robbery he was some
what uncommunicative. Under cross- 1
examination he said that he had
stolen the machine.
Mystery Is Not Cleared.
This statement, however, failed to
satisfy the detectives or District At
torney Deich or to clear the mystery.
No automobile, which could have been
used by the men, was reported stolen.
Another feature was the fact that the
automobile was not found where Ogle
testified it had been left by the three
men before they abandoned it and
took refuge in Murphy's house.
Authorities are working under the
belief that there must have been a
confederate of the robbers who se
cured the machine and then returnd
it, if it was a stolen car. There is
another theory that it may have been
borrowed car and that the owner
y have reclaimed it after it had
been abandoned.
It was apparent that Banaster was
not telling all that he knew about the
machine. That he was responsible fot i
securing the car and that he drove
the three to St. Johns and return was
declared by both Osle and Smith.
Confessions at Variance
The story of the holdup as told
by Smith was similar to the confes
sion of Ogle up to the time of the
actual arrival at the tavern. Fol
lowing that, however, the confessions
differed and there was apparently an
effort by Smith to make his partici
pation in the holdup seem as slight
as possible.
He said that after entering the
tavern he entered a small room to
the right and brought a man out
and drove him to the ball room after
which he held the people at bay.
He said that the people already had
their hands in the air when he art
rived although neither of the other
holdup men were In sight.
I then took my position pacing
1 up and down across the room," he
said, and he indicated his position at
a point to the right of the entrance,
for one entering the room, and be
tween the entrance and the crowd.
Fainting Is Recalled.
The testimony of the victims of the
holdup was that the man who held
them was on the other side of the
entrance, with the entrance between
him and the crowd. Banaster also
upheld the testimony of victims in
that respect.
"I remember a woman saying she
was going to faint and then falling"
said Smith. He also said that an
other woman asked to go to the first
woman's aid. He declared that there
was a blond woman in the crowd who
said the holdup men were not going
to hurt them and that he admired her
especially for her courage.
Relative to the shooting, he said
he knew nothing, declaring he did
not know who did It. He said also
that he heard no remark made to the
ef tect that 'they had bumped
two off."
He said that after the people were
all rounded up into the ballroom it
was "Dutch," known as Banaster. who
took the money and jewelry from
th while he &nd Ol. held them
with their revolvers.
Banaster said that after entering
the tavern he leit Ogle holding the
people in the ballroom and he went
downstairs, where he encountered the
policeman and immediately held him
up. Ha said he took the revolver from
the policeman and used It during the
remainder of the holdup, sticking: his
own in his pocket. He said he had
two revolvers at the time of holding
up the policeman, but later grave one
of them to one of the other boys.
Banaster was positive that it was
while he was down stairs with the
policeman that he heard the shots up
stairs. He denied, however, any
knowledge of who did the shooting.
He also would not admit any conver
sation between him and Smith rela
tive to the shooting or any remarks
made by either to the effect that
someone had been "bumped off."
These words were nsed, however, by
one of the two, according to the con
fession of Ogle.
Safe Robbery Denied.
. Banaster said he knew the enter
tainer at the tavern but did not re
call calling him -Charley" when be
went to stick his hand in the man's
pocket. He also denied having taken
the J400 from the safe or 500 from
a man's hand.
After they had left the tavern he
said he fell down a couple of times
on the way to the boat and he may
have lost some of the money. He
said when they made a division he
received only about $200 In money.
Banaster admitted driving the car
which took the men to and from St.
Johns.
When asked where he got the car
he keDt sayiner. "It was there.
Banaster said that he threw the
revolver of the patrolman into the
river as thev were crossing. This is
contrary to the first report that the
revolver was taken witn tne guns
captured at the time of the arrest.

holdup yesterday.

their faces in the bushes bordering the
river bank not far from tne tavern.
The cap of one of the men was found

way to the rowboat following the
hold-up.
OKle. Story Believed.
The automobile was left standing at
the corner of Johns and Crawford
streets in St. Johns while the rob
bery was being staged, according to
his story, and on the return was left
about two blocks from the Murphy
house.
The confession of Ogle, made fol
lowing the arrest, was checked up
with his statements yesterday, made
while going over the scene of the
crime, and both Deputy District At
torney Deich and the detectives ex
pressed confidence that he told a true
story.
The confessions made yesterday by
Smith and Banaster were merely ver
bal ones, witnessed by the small
party in the room at the time of the
cross-examination. They were con
sidered by the officials, however, to
be of the utmost importance in get
ting the truth of the story of the
crime.
Efforts yesterday to get Banaster
to confess that he had dealings with
K. Kasaoka. Japanese, were unsuc
cessful. The" Japanese was arrested
at Third and Flanders streets after
evidence was secured to indicate that
he had purchased diamonds and other
jewelry which were taken in the rob'
bery of the Idle Hour pool hall, i
"job" believed to have been the work
of men now under arrest for the
Claremont tavern crime.
It was announced yesterday that
the Japanese would probably be
charged with conspiracy. This same
charge probably will be placed
agr&inst Vincent D. Murphy, in whose
house the holdup men were arrested
Some of the diamonds taken in the
holdup of the Idle Hour pool hall and
said to have been purchased by the
Japanese have been recovered by the
Inspectors and returned " to their
owners.
The'story of the arrest of the rob
bers. as told by the officers who sur
rounded and entered the house at 163
West Emerson street, is dramatic.
"We had almost given up hope
finding the men in the house," said
Inspector Bob Phillips when I opened
a door to what I thought to be

standing in what proved to be a bed
room.

First definite description
shooting of Jasper Newton Burgees,
state highway commissioner, and
George E. Peringer, farmer from Pen

through E. P. Marshall, also of Pen
dleton, who was with the two men I
in Claremont tavern when the mur
der occurred Friday night. Mr. Mar-
hall, who is practically in a state ot
nervous collapse, declined to be in
terviewed himself, but retired to
his room In the Benson hotel while
H. W. Collins, a Pendleton friend with
whom Mr. Marshall is staying, dis
cussed the affair.
M.r. Marshall, who has been unable
o sleep since the murder, related his
experience several times to Mr. Col
lins, so that the latter is fully con
versant with the facts. Mr. Collins
says that yesterday he devoted him
self to keeping Mr. Marshall's mind
off the subject of the shooting.
According to Mr. Collins, the whole
party, consisting of Mr. Marshall.
Messrs. Burgess and Peringer and
Misses Lora Hastings, formerly of
Pendleton; Elsie Babcock and Jane
Shelton, roommates of Miss Hastings,
had been about ten minutes in the
tavern when the robbers entered.
Their first intimation of the holdup
was when the robbers pushed open
the partly closed door of their private
dining room.
One of the highwaymen ordered the
party to file out of the dining room.
Question Is Answered.
"What does this mean?" demanded
Mr. Burgess.
Come on out or wel'll show you
what it means," threatened the rob
ber, waving his revolver.
Mr. Collins says that from this
juncture the accounts of the affair
are confused. Mr. Marshall says he
did not hear Mr. Burgess tell the rob
ber to shoot if he wanted to. Miss
Hastings thinks Mr. Burgess did tell
him to g ahead and shoot.
At any rate, the robber fired with
out further parley. Thje first shot, Mr.
Collins says, struck Mr. Burgess in
the face and he slumped down in his
chair. Another shot went through his
heart and a third struck his thumb.
At the first shot, Mr. Peringer, who
was sitting with the door to the pri
vate dining room on his left, jumped
up and tried to close the portal. One
of the robbers fired through the nanel
and the shot penetrated Mr. Peringer's
heart.
Mr. Peringer staggered, rallied, and
walked a few steps Into the hallway,
where he fell dead. His body lay
