charged with the murder of two
brothers named Trost in 'Wallowa
! county. Oregon, in 1905. and for sev
! eral years a rancner In the Grande
; Prairie district, was arrested by Con
stable Powers of the Alberta provin-
! cial police yesterday. Just as he was
aboot to leave Spirit river to Join bis
family in this city.
McBain's arrest was effected as a
result of the work of Constable
Powers, who has been in the north
country for the last nine months.
Aernard Mas Shadowed.
Information received by Powers was
to the effect that McBain was be
lieved to be the man wanted in Wal
lowa county for the murder of the
two brothers no less than 15 years
ago. A careful watch of the man was
carried on. a full description as to bis
general makeup being later forwarded
to the police authorities of Wallowa
. county by a return wire. Superin
tendent of the Alberta police, W. C.
Bryan, then received the following
telceram: "Hold on a charge of mur
der James G. McBain, whom you de
scribe. Arrest, hold and wire me."
Immediately following the man's
arrest information concerning the
action was sent to the United States
authorities, the police asking that a
sheriff be trent to Edmonton by the
first outgoing train.
Description Is Fitted.
Although McBain denies be is the
man wanted, the Alberta police here
declare that the description furnished
by the Wallowa county police authori
ties confirms their opinion that they
have the wanted man.
The only action that the local po
lice will take from now on will be to
place McBain in the cells of the Ed
monton jail to await the arrival of
the Wallowa county sheriff, who will
lnntitute proceedings for extradition.
The police here state that McBain
had been in the Peace river country
for some time and that apart from
dealing in cattle he had also been an
' employe on Northern Railway con
struction work.
Evidently the' alleged murderer is
known in Oregon as James G. McBain.
TROST BROTHERS MURDERED
Two Indictments for Slaying Re
turned Against Melialn.
ENTERPRISE, Or., Feb. 19. (Spe
cial.) James H. McBain is wanted for
" the murder of the Trost brothers in
Grossman, northern part of Wallowa
county April 10, 1905. McBain came
to this county from Grand Junction,
Colo, in March of thai year and se
lected a piece of government land in
a district not yet open to entry. He
then went back to Colorado, and in
his absence Charles Trost came from
Kentucky and squatted on the same
land that McBain had wanted. A
brother. Theodore Trost, had pre
viously settled in the neighborhood.
When advised that others had set-
tied on the land, McBain came back
from Colorado and hastened to Gross
man. He found the two brothers on
the disputed land and shot and killed
both of them. When arrested hi
claimed he had killed them In self
defense after they bad refused to
leave the land, but at the trial strong
circumstantial evidence was produced
to support the state's contention that
he had hidden behind a loff and shot
them from ambush.
Two indictments were returned
against McBain. one for the murder
of each of the brothers. He was tried
on one Indictment at a special term
of the circuit court, and on May 20,
1905, was found guilty of murder in
the second degree on a compromise
verdict, and was sentenced to life 'm
prisonment. After a few years, how
ever, he was pardoned and imme
diately disappeared. The second in
dictment has remained on the county
records and a search for the man has
been conducted quietly ever since-

Schuebel's office and confronted with
the complaint. They had had some
words two days before the suit was
filed and he complained, he said, when
she would not get up and have
breakfast with him, and told her she
had two girls in the house and little
to do.
Girls Thea Are Dismissed.
"I don't care whether the girls stav
here or not." the witness testified his
wire nad said, so he dismissed them.
She asked, he said, what he would
personally receive from the sale of
his stock, in the event the mill should
be sold, and when he told her the
amount would be $110,000 she ap
peared to be disappointed because it
would not be more. His wife had
told him, he said, that her father had
threatened to "blow his bead off be
cause he had heard that Willard had
struck his wife at Los Angeles, so he
went to Portland to see his father-in-law,
C. E. Fraker. and brought him
home to Sunday dinner, with Mr. and
Mrs. Miles, the latter being his wife s
sister. They had a fine dinner and
everything was pleasant, said Mr.
Hawley.-
"Have you seen your baby since the
suit was filed" asked Mr. Allen.
"Yes; every day. About a month
ago I went to the house and the baby
was ill. I thoucht. so I called two
physicians and found the child had a
fever with a temperature of 103.8, and
installed a trained nurse, who was
with her nine days."
How has your wife dressed sines
this trial started?" asked tbe attor
ney.
Wife's Dram Criticised.
"She Is wearing the poorest clothes
She has," declared Mr. Hawley. glanc
lng at the plaintiff, a few feet away.
Shortly before court adjourned this
afternoon C. D. Latourette commenced
to cross-examine the defendant, who
described his first meeting with Mrs.
Hawley. He said he fell in love with
her at sight and Induced Oscar Wood-
Iin to introduce them at her home.
After he had known her three weeks
he told her he loved her, he saw her
every day and In four months they
were engaged and were married two
months later.
"Did you ever have any epats before
you were engaged?" asked Mr. La
tourette.
"We had one just before Christmas
and I debated whether I would send
her a box of candy or not and I fi
nally did.
"It didn't cost much? suggested
the attorney.
"Oh. no, about US or $20,- replied
v uiard.
"You did your best before this suit
was filed to patch things up with
anarJorieT" said Latourette.
50-50 Proposal Too Macb-
"Until this 50-50 proposal came up
I did," answered Hawley. "When we
were married I promised her I would
never leave her and she promised she
would never leave me."
How strong were the bonds of af
fection between bis wife and himself
were related this morning by young
Hawley on direct examination.
"We always got along pretty well,"
he said. "We hugged and kissed
every night and morning and when
I would leave the house and when 1
would return."
"It is a moot question," observed
Harrison Allen, "as to what a soul
kiss Is. Did these kisses denote af
fection or were they a matter ot
form V
"Some of our kisses lasted longer
than the board of censorship would
allow," replied the defendant.
"Then they were the real thing like
Mr. Latourette experienced in the
days of yore, observed Allen, refer
ring to one of the plaintiffs attor
neys.
Kndearins; Terms Recalled.
"Before we were married she called
me Dear Heart and Lover Doll, and
she called me Loveman after mar
riage. I called her Baby Doll quite a
bit on account of her round baby
face."
"Then you found her to be the real
kissing: bug of all the girls you have
ever had?"
"Yes."
"Did she ever object?"
"No, except she did not want me
to bite her tongue."
Mr. Hawley denied that he had
threatened to throw his wife out of
the house and her trunk after her. as
she bad charged. He added that his
wife had never had a trunk, but she
did have a hope chest.
In response to an objection that
his questions were leading, Mr. Allen
said the defense was trying to show
that the quarrels of the pair were
such as frequently occur in many
families, and that they were speedily
forgiven and forgotten. The de
fendant testified that after these in
cidents he was penitent and thought
them silly and trivial.
Hot Tamale Case Cited.
The "hot tamale" Incident was
related from the standpoint of the
defense this morning and Mr. Hawley
stepped from the witness chair and
gave an illustration of how his wife
had "butted" him and that he had
returned the compliment. This oc
curred about a week before the suit
was filed. He denied having threat
ened to break down the door of their
bedroom, stating that his wife had
not gone upstairs at all after their
row over the tamale can, Mrs. Hawley
having testified that her husband
TRADE ENDANGERED
Secretary of Commerce Is
Against Cut in Funds.
FOREIGN ATTACHES TO GO
United States "Would Be Badlj
Handicapped in Commercial
War, Declares Alexander.
WASHINGTON. D. C Feb. 19.
American trade with the world is en
dangered by the action of the appro
priations committee In cutting the
foreign trade estimates of the depart
ment of commerce from $1,658,000 to
$490,000, Secretary Alexander declared
today.
"This Is , tbe most serious blow
ever aimed from within at our foreign
trade," the secretary said. "The sum
allowed is only one-half of the appro
priation now used.
At the very time when European
and Japanese governments are- striv
ing strenuously to perfect their trade-
promoting machinery through enor
mously increased appropriations, this
bill proposes to scrap the American
machine, the most effective and
smoothest running that any govern
ment has ever been able to assemble.
America Will Be Handicapped.
"At the very time when our rivals
have an almost overwhelming trade
advantage in exchange'rates, this bill
proposes to handicap American man
ufactures by practically withdrawing
the helping hand of the government
Almost on the day when our merchant
marine becomes a fact, it is virtually
announced that foreign trade is not
worth supporting.1
Funds for the promotion of trade in
the far east are cut in half, he added
stating that this means "a great
slackening of effort" in a district
where Japan, Germany and England
are redoubling their efforts.
"The great markets of the east will
return a thousand-fold every dollar
this government spends there, he
said: "The effect of the bill is theabo
lition of the departments commercial
attaches and the reduction in the
number of foreign trade commission
ers despite the rapidly changing con
ditions in Europe and the critical re
construction departments with which
they have kept American manufactur
ers In touch.
'As a result of the cut in appropri
ations," he said, "District offices must
be abolished in New York, Boston,
Chicago, St. Louis, New Orleans, San
Francisco. Seattle, Baltimore, Phila
delphia, Pittsburg, Cincinnati, Dayton,
Los Angeles and Portland, Or."
Commercial Attaches to Go.
"The bill aims to abolish the com
mercial attaches entirely," Secretary
Alexander said. "This service was
established in 1914 at the request of
American business. It has won the
approval and respect of American
business. As now conducted, it costs
$165,000. a trifling and inadequate
sum. There is not an office in the
service that does not turn in more
than that every year in actual busi
ness and the contracts by American
houses through some of the offices
run into the millions of dollars. That
Is taking into account only the pro
motion work that can be figured In
us. largely account for the high
total.
The sub-treasuries which would be
abolished at the end of this year are
at Baltimore, New York. Philadelphia,
Boston. Cincinnati, Chicago, St. Louis,
New Orleans and San Francisco. The
surveyors-general to be discarded on
June 30 next would include those in
Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho,
Montana, Nevada, New Mexico. Ore
gon, South Dakota, Utah, Washington.
Wyoming and Alaska. The assay of
fices at Deadwood. S. D., and Salt
Lake City would be closed June 30.
Reductions made by the committee
are general throughout the govern
ment service and include some self
imposed economies on the part of con
gress, there being cuts aggregating
$400,000 in the amount pent by con
gress for miscellaneous services, in
cluding employes.
No new government services are es
tablished by the bill, and the request
of the department of commerce for
enlargement of the foreign and do
mestic commerce bureau by appoint
ment of additional field agents in the
far east. Central and South America
and new European countries was de
nied.

REVOLT PLANNED IN CALIFOR
NIA ASSERTS GUARD CHIEF.
Investigation by General Borree
Reveals Startling Condition
in Southern State.
SACRAMENTO, Cal., Feb. 19. (Spe
cial) That all revolvers and other
firearms which it is possible to con
ceal on the person are being bought
up by "those who have allied them
selves with the forces of unrest in
California, to overthrow the govern
ment and institute a reign of anar
chy, was the statement of Adjutant
General J. J. Borree upon his return
to Sacramento today from a tour of
the state.
General Borree states that from an
investigation of pawnshops where
second-hand guns usually are easily
acquired, he has learned that practi
cally all revolvers In such places of
business have been sold within the
last few weeks, until it is now pos
sible to purchase them only at pro
hibitivo prices.
"The conclusion Is self-evident,1
stated the commander of the Califor
nia national guard. "Radicals in Cali
fornia as elsewhere are supplying
themselves with arms and spreading
unrest while the officers ot the law
have relapsed into an apathy which
approaches indifference and threat
ens the safety of the nation." The
citizens of California do not realize
the seriousness of the situation.
Everywhere I am confronted with a
cry for the abandonment of the na
tional guard and the institution of
universal military training, but it is
my firm belief that it is Imperative
that we have an efficient fighting
force at home until tbe federal gov
ernment acts."

"At least 15 trade commissioners
who are reporting on rapidly chang
ing trade conditions in European
countries from Denmark to Austria,
will have to be recalled by the first
of May. For promoting trade in the
far east the cut amounts to 50 per

Hawley Kept "Strapped."
The question of her allowance of
$50 a month for clothes and spending
money was taken up again, and the
young husband said that before she
was placed on an allowance bis
wife had spent so much money on
clothes and shoes that she kept him
"strapped," so they both set the fig
ure at $50.
Numerous letters and telegrams
were presented in evidence to prove
their affection for each other. One
of these was read. It having been
written by Mr. Hawley at Oakland.
CaL. July 18. 1917. as follows:
"Dearest Baby Lover Doll :
"Just got home a little before C
from San Francisco and got your
angel letter saying you tried to send
my suit right and it is all right, dear.
Why, honey, I was just thinking I
could never have any more fun with
out you. No matter what you did, I
never could stay away from you, no
matter how awful it was. for I would
pine away without you. I worship
you more than words can tell. I am
so lonesome for you, baby heart.
"I am all alone and am going to
leave for the T. and D. theater in a
minute, so you must forgive my short
letter, but honey, this is the second
letter today! Why, I am so wild about
you I could crush you in my arms
with hugs, and honey. I feel bad ev
ery time I think you don't like my
tongue any more. Oh. please, honey
love, like it like you used to. I know
I am not as good to you as I should
be, but honey, I worship you so much
I never could leave you in my life.
"Well, good by, boney, and you will
let me kiss your tongue just once
when I get home, won't you? I em
afraid my kisses don't taste so good
any more. But you love me, honey.
Always and always. Good by, angel

you anything I had. sweetheart dear.

foolish, but I feel so lonesome I had

U. S. Liquor Warehouses Proposed.
WASHINGTON. Feb. 19. Govern
ment warehouses for storage of dis
tilled spirits, as adjuncts to enforcing
prohibition, would be authorized
under a bill introduced today by
Senator Warren, republican, Wyoming.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 19. Bitter
partisan debate on tbe fraud charges
against Senator Newberry, republican,
Michigan, took up much of the sen
ate's time today as yesterday, pre
cipitated by Senator Sherman, repub
lican, of Illinois, continuing bis at
tacks on Henry Ford, the defeated
democratic candidate.
Senator Watson, republican. In
diana, called a meeting for Monday
of the sub-committee appointed to
recount the ballots in the contested
election.
Senator Sherman Included the mem
bers of Mr. Ford's family, the auto
mobile which he manufactures, and
all his activities in his vigorous at
tack. He declared Mr. Ford had
furthered his financial and political
fortunes by enlisting the services of
the government.
Senator Is Rebuked.
The Illinois senator was taken
sharply to task by Senators Stanley
of Kentucky and Walcott. of Dela
ware, both democrats, who declared
he had violated senate decorum, the
latter charging that Senator Sherman
has been "addressing a jury in Michi
gan," for which he would have been
in contempt of court if done in that.
Setting himself up as "one of those
persons who knew everything instan
taneously from birth." Senator Sher
man said Mr. Ford had reared a
"financial moloch," had obtained con
gressional aid In .acquiring and im
proving land for private purposes and
had enlisted the services of the fed
eral government in promoting his po
litical interests in Michigan, while bis
son, Edsel, was making good his es
cape from the military draft.
"And I may say," said the senator,
"that I regard the Ford automobile
as an international pest. It destroys
more useful material than any other
sinkhole In the world. It is a waste of
time and substance."
Aid to Ford Is Charred.
"The government at best." he con
tinued, "has become a philanthropic
institution for the beneft of Mr. Ford.
It continually is engaged in promoting
his interests financially and politi
cally."
The senator declared Ford had
found the federal government ma
chinery inadequate, however, in pros
ecuting the Michigan senatorial case
and that "literally hundreds of Ford's
private agents were swarming about
the Grand Rapids trial "scrutinizing
every nook and corner within a hun
dred miles of the courtroom."
In some ways. Senator Sherman
said, he regretted that Mr. Ford did
not become a senator, "for a greater
refrigerator for his effervescent brain
does not exist" than the senate cham
ber adding that nothing would "cure
him better than talking to empty
benches."
Impropriety Is Alleged.
Senator Stanley, democrat, Ken
tucky, replying to Senator Sherman,
declared the Illinois senator had vio
lated every propriety by some of his
references. This brought a protest
from Senator Townsend, republican,
Michigan, who' said the facts in the
Newberry case would be disclosed
during the trial and that senators
should refrain from any discussion
of it.
Senator Walcott, democrat, Dela
ware, said Senator Sherman had made
the first reference to the case and
that throughout his talk had been
addressing a "jury in Michigan."
Such an address. If rendered in Michi
gan, he said, "would render the sen
ator from Illinois in contempt of
court and liable to penitentiary imprisonment."
