19 THE MORNING OREGOXIAX, SATURDAY, . FEBRUARY 28, 1020 STATUS IS PROBLEM Christian Science Method In--volved in Trial. PATHRA ROSS DEFENDANT Failure to Report Case of Youth Mho Died of Influenza Specific Charge. The question of whether Christian Science absent treatment has any standing at law and may b consid ered as legitimate curative treat ment is the outstanding problem which confronted Municipal Judge noi.stnan yesterday In the hearing of charges of failure to report a com municable disease and of failing to quarantine which have been preferred against Pathra Ross, Christian Sci ence practitioner with offices in the Pittock block. The case is "one involving 15-year-old William Brooks Childs Jr., who died of influenza at Island station in Clackamas county on Friday, Febru ary 13. The boy is said to have been given absent treatment by Pathra Kos. After the state had completed its case against the practitioner yester day afternoon Deputy District Attor ney Dek'b declared that in case any one using absent treatment could be legally said to,be treating a patient, the prosecution held that the prac titioner was guilty of the charges against her. In case she could not be held to be treating the patient he said that she could not be held guilty. JarlNdlctloa AUo Question. The question of whether the muni cipal court of Portland has jurisdic tion in a case of this character where the practitioner residing in this city gave absent treatment to a patient is another county is another problem encountered. Dr. O. A. Welch, health officer, with Jurisdiction In Clackamas county, tes tified that no report had been made to that office by Pathra Ross relative to the boy in question suffering from influenza. H. F. Mchiturff, represent ing the Portland health office, testi fied that no report had been made to his office. Dr. Robert L. Benson, who con ducted the autopsy, testified that the boy died of influenza. 1 Mother Says Report Ordered. Mrs. William Brooks Childs, mother of the boy, said that the boy had called on the practitioner and ar ranged for treatments about a week before his death. She said that the night before the day of the boy's death she had telephoned Part ha Ross and at that time had received in struction to get in touch with the Clackamas county health office and report the boy's illness. The hearing of the case will be taken up again in municipal court this afternoon. the state engineer here today aska that action on the application of the California-Oregon Power company re questing permission to appropriate water from Klamath river be deferred until it can be determined whether or not granting of the application would derive the lower Klamath area of water for irrigation.

To get possession of their own daughter, Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Schultz of Vancouver, Wash., filed habeas cor pus proceedings in the Multnomah circuit court yesterday, asserting that the child's grandmother and step grandfather are holding her by force and scorn the demands of the parents. Hearing was set for Monday at 2 o'clock before Presiding Circuit Judge McCourt. June Rose Schultz, aged 3, is the cause of the action. She is being un lawfully imprisoned at the home of -Mr. and Mrs. Harry Sullivan at Russell street, and bodily harm is threatened anyone attempting to take the child away, it is charged. Since last October the grandparents moved secretly from place to place, leaving no address behind, taking the child with them, in an attempt to prevent the parents from finding her, it is said. The trouble arose with the dislike of Mrs. Alta G. Sullivan for her son-ir.-law, Hugh Schultz, according to A. C. Allen, of the law firm of Allen & Roberts, who filed the petition for writ of habeas corpus. When Schultz left his wife and child for a trip to London on a freight boat, in response to a call from the United States ship ping board, they went to the home of his mother-in-law to live. He re--j turned last October. From the story told Attorney Allen, while Mrs. Schultz was with her mother every attempt was made to get her to leave her husband. She is 19 years old. Schultz is 25. She re fused and when her husband returned she went back to him. Her step father, who Is said to be her fourth stepfather, is alleged to have been very antagonistic toward her husband also. When Mrs. Schultz went back to her husband her mother told her she could not take the child with her, and forcibly prevented her, it is alleged. Later both husband and wife went for the child, but met with refusal. A week ago Schultz saw his mother-in-law on the street in Portland and found for the first time her address, as she had moved frequently, and he had been unable to trace her or his daughter, according to Attorney Allen. He went to the Sullivan home apd demanded his child last Tuesday. A struggle, in which the father had a hold on the child's leg and the grandmother the girl's heryl, ensued, when Schultz capitulated and deter mined on a more peaceful way of get ting possession of his daughter.

Judge Kelly of this city today made an order in tne case brough by John w. naste or Portland to enjoin Coun- tyvcierK xieveridge and County Treas urer Lewis of Multnomah county from paying warrants issued for gasoline and oil used n the automobiles of the Multnomah county commissioners, "directing the plaintiff to ftle an amended complaint, making- Multno mah county and payees named in the warrants defendants. The payees are the associated Oil company. Standard Oil company and Portland Garage. The order gives the plaintiff ten days in which to file an amended complaint and directs that summons be served upon the payees and that the amended complaint be served upon the original defendants and that they have ten days after such serv ice to answer. Cue Submitted February 13. This case was submitted to Judire Kelly on February 13 upon the issues in toe pleadings and an agreed state ment of facts. Judge Kelly said that the consideration of the case upon the .arguments and briefs heretofore submitted would await plaintiff's course upon the requirements of the order. In announcing his decision on the necessity of requiring the payees o the warrants to be made defendants. Judge Kelly cited the decision of Judge Robert L. Bean, now Judge of the United States court, then a justice of the Oregon supreme court, in the case of state ex. rel. Melschan 32, Oregon 72. Judge Kelly Is circuit judge of the thind judicial district, but heard this case in Portland at the request of the Multnomah county circuit Judges. l.e of Private Autos Involved. This case arose from an arrange ment made by the county commission ers of Multnomah county providing that If County Commissioners Hoyt and Holman used their own auto mobiles on county business instead of requiring the use of county ma chines the county would furnish the gasoline and oil for their machines when on private as well as official business. Kaste, who is a Portland attorney, instituted this injunction Buit to try to stop that practice. Judge Kelly reserved decision when the case was argued two weeks ago today and made his order after com ing to the conclusion that a complete determination of the controversy could not be had without the payees of the warrants and also Multnomah county being made parties to the case. merly a Portland man, has been here several weeks on business in the dis trict forester's office and has been putting In request for boats with which to patrol the thousands of tim bered islands in his section.
