THE MOEXIXG OREGOXIAN, SATURDAY, , NOVEMBER 20, 1920 EX-MARIE DENIES WHOLESALE KILLING Only One Haitian Slain, Says Freeman Lang. NINE MURDERS CHARGED Accused, Described by Courier as "Very Beautiful." Suffers Kervous Attack in Court. PORT AU PRINCE, Nov. 19. Free man Langr, former American marine charged with the murder of nine Haitian prisoners, again toolc the stand today in his own behalf. He denied specifically every accusation against him. He frankly admitted, however, killing one bandit chief with a machine sun at Hinche while at tempting to escape. - He fired at the bandit from his own front porch, he eaid. Lang- testified after four native gendarmes had testified that they saw him murder several prisoners, bringing the number of victims up to nine. Each witness went into details ana described how the natives were .shot. One witness was confused on the point as to whether the prisoners were shot while attempting to escape. Just after beginning his testimony Lang suffered a nervous weeping at tack. Ldiik Vry Beao-tffnl." A Haitian courier who was called to the stand described Lang as "very young, of blonde hair and very beau tiful." "The beauty of Lang," the witness added, "makes a strange contrast with the acts for which he has been reproached." Taking the stand .after Captain Pat Kelly of the local gendarmerie and the Jail sergeant had denied every na tive charge regarding wholesale mur ders, Lang declared that he had shot only one prisoner. "This was a division bandit chief," he said, "who was brought from the jail by a gendarme to my residence for questioning. The bandit chief re fused to talk and was ordered re jailed. He tried to escape from the gendarme, who fired twice, missing him. I Quickly got a machine gun, firing a spurt of bullets and killing him instantly. The reported occur rence was told all right." Kx&Kcrration Im t'harsed. Answering an inquiry by Major Jesse K. Dyer, judge advocate, as to whether he applied electric treatment to prisoners, Lang admitted putting coins in a water bucket and offering to give them to natives if they re moved them, which they attempted to do, while, he said, other natives turned on a generator, shocking the prisoners. When asked to explain the volume of testimony charging him with mon strous crimes, Lang declared the na tives were prone to exaggeration. SEX EQUALITY PROPOSED Dr. Owens-Adair Would 1 urllicr Amend Marriage Laws. ASTORIA, Or.. Nov. 19. (Special.) rr. Owens-Adalr of Clatsop county. author of Oregon's sterilization law relating to defectives, enacted in 1917 after having once been vetoed and referred to the people, said today that at the forthcoming session of the leg islature she would introduce a bill to amend the marriage laws -in Oregon so as to make it obligatory on women as well as men to pass satisfactory medical examinations before obtain ing licenses to wed. The existing law applies to men only. Dr. Owens-Adair also said she ex pected to have a measure introduced requiring all applicants for marriage licenses to pass a mentality test in audition to the physical test. She declared she could see nothing wrong In the lntermarriuge of feeble minded persons, provided they are rendered sterile first. "The, feeble minded are human." said Ir.' Owens Adair, "and have a right to a home and love." PAY IN LIQUOR ADMITTED (Continued From FMrst Page) point Marshall is said to have made away with 12 quarts. Opportunity Given Informer. "Why did you put the liquor in the hallway?" queried Mayor Baker. 'Well, for one thing. I put it there preparatory to taking it to the liquor room, but I also put it there to eiv Marshall a chance to get a bottle or two.' "Did you see him take the liauorr asked Stanley Myers, deputy city at torney, who represented the city in tne nearing. "Of course not. quickly returned the officer. "I turned my eyes to give Marshal a chance. He expected to get a few bottles of liquor as his snare in the deal and I expected hi to get it if he was quick enough." Any Mean Hetd Proper. "Do you think that it is a good practice to permit a bootlegger to receive a portion of the liquor con fiscated by officers and then sell it under the protection of the police de partment; sought Mayor Baker. "No. I don't. But we promised him no protection. At the time I felt that any means to 'hook." bootleggers was justified. Huntington's testimony was prac ttcally the same as that of his fel low officer, except that he was un able to detail any of the incidents relating to the actual arrest. At the preliminary hearing before the police efficiency board, Attorney jviyers contended tnat Huntington disclaimed all knowledge of anv deal or dealings with Marshal, although Huntington said he did not believe tnat be made such a statement and if he had. his testimony had been misunderstood. Informer Sets Price. Both officers explained they first met Marshall, following the arrest of Ms brother-in-law tor selling liquor. Following this arrest, the officers testified that Marshall came to them and offered to turn up a shipload o liquor which was to have been brought to Portland from Canada, if he could be assured that he could have one-third of the cargo, supposed to be valued at approximately $10,000, The police officers testified thy. they had agreed tentatively to thi plan providing that the scheme was approved by the federal officials. Such officials, however, according to the officers, rerusea to approve th plan, and according to Russell, sai that the job was too big, and that any such agreement could only be carried out in the event that it con cerned a few bottles of liquor. The shipload of whisky, aocordin to testimony, was captured by federal officials off the Washington coas and never reached Portland, its orig inal destination. Marshal again figured in dealing with Russell and Huntington, when negro bootlegger was arrested. On this occasion Sergeant Ellis accom panied the two officers. According a Russell. Marshal secured eight uarts of liquor on this deal, although his was not learned until later, Rus sell stating that a careful search was made of the house and the officers left feeling that they had taken all the liquor within the house, r On the last deal, which took place on October 19. plans had been laid to capture eight cases of liquor at Terminal No. 4. upon Information given by Marshal. This raid failed, so far as Russell and Huntington were concerned, because - one memDer of the bootlegging ring recognized Hunt - ngton as an officer, being a- fellow lodge member. Deputy's Badge Worn. Marshal's connection with the two fficers was developed before Sergeant Ellis the following day, when he was taken into custody for Impersonating federal officer. At the time of this rrest he was wearing a( special eputy sheriffs badge, lent' him by Russell and which Russell testified hat he had forgotten to take from the stool pigeon. However, the fact that Marsnail was able to carry away-,liquor as a reward for- his information lid not become generally known until three weeks later, when Huntington, and Russell were cited before the effi ciency board. Austin Flegel Jr.. deputy ,tjnitea States attorney, on the stand yester day related the entire' story of the arrest' and the division of the liquor as it had been told to hira by Mar- hall, in the presence of Sergeant Ellis. He testified that he knew Pa trolmen Huntington and Russell to be two of the most capable men on the police force, had always regarded them as honest and conscientious of- cers. but said that they had dis played lack of common sense in this particular instance. Informer Called Snake. Flegel characterized Marshal as a snake." too loathsome to have deal ings of any kind with respectable in- ividuals. His reputation was tnat oi bootlegger, Flegel stating that he ad admitted sales of liquor to K. T. Griffith, president of the Portland Railway, Light & Power company and to Arthur F. Nicolal, a local manufacturer. Police Sergeant Epps, Lieutenant Thatcher and William Bryon ana aseoh- Beeman. federal officers, all took the stand and spoke highly of the good character of the two offi- ers under fire, although eacn con demned the payment of stool pigeons in liquor. Thomas Ryan, appearing lor tne en, cited their records in the police department attained through hard work, admitted lack of judgment in the single instance but urged a sus pension rather than discharge as punishment ample in view of the circumstances. Long Record Is Cited. There has not been a whisper of graft or corruption in this case." argued Attorney Ryan. "Both men ong have served on the police force. their record showing that so zealous were they to apprehend law violators that they worked on days off. In the case under discussion they both worked until 1 A. M. and on the fol- owing day, which was designated as their day off duty, they were down town at 7 A. M. again to begin operations. They are guilty of using extremely poor judgement, but in their desire to clean up the bootleggers they felt that the means justified the end. They have learned their lesson by bitter experience and I do not believe should be discharged." Mayor Praises Past Work. ilaor Baker complimented both officers for their excellent record in the past and said that he had con- idered the two among the best men to be found on the police department He made it clear, however, that he would refuse to condone any practice which placed the cloak of police pro tection over bootleggers. To my mind there is no distinction etween a bootlegger and a bootlegger who because of information given to police officials is permitted to operate without interference. ' It will probably be several days be fore Mayor Baker will announce his decision in the case. , Emphatic denial that his name should in any way be connected with an alleged purchase of liquor from Marshall was made last night by Arthur F. Nicolai. secretary of the Nicolai Door Manufacturing company. "I was astounded, said Mr. Nicolai. on learning that my name was con nected with this case. As there is no other person in Portland by my name that J know of the story has the ef fect of dragging me into the matter. wish it understood, emphatically. that I bought no liquor from this man and that this evident mention of my name in the case was wholly un warranted. Some one has mad a mistake which does me an injustice and which I deeply resent." MASTER OF GRANGE TOLO TO APOLOGIZE Head, of Washington Farm ers Loses on Half of Charges. REPRIMAND TO BE GIVEN William Bouck Is Declared Guilty . of Using His Position for Political Purposes. BOSTON. Nov. 13. Four of the eight charges against William Bouck, master of the Washington State Orange, were sustained by vote of the national grange late today. The pen alty voted by the grange was anapol ogy to be made by Bouck and a rep rimand for his alleged disloyalty to the national grange and for permit ting politics to be introduced at grange sessions. The charges sustained were: Using his grange position for po litical purposes. Disloyalty to the national grange. Permitting s. duly disqualified mem ber to act in a state grange - permitting political speakers at a state grange session. Bouck, who has been known as a leader of the radical element in the grange,, was the unsuccessful candi date of- the farmer-labor party for congress in the second Washington district at this year's election. The charges were brought, against him by five members of the Pomona grange. No. 19, Yakima county, Wash ington. They were, considered by the committee on claims and griev ances of the national grange, which heard representatives of Bouck and of the complainants. The commit tee's report was submitted today and its ratification brought to a close the B4th national grange assembly. The national grange went on record as opposed to the repeal of the excess profits tax, but asking for revision of the law "to bring it up to date."

Ford had dropped a check for $1000, a replica of the one the state bank certified, on the floor of a pool room and the proprietor had promptly notified the bank of his find. .This had aroused suspicions as to the genuiness of the $3032 check that they had certified but a short time before against the account of Mr. -blank, for a woman who had called in i tne bank.

The handling of matters pertaining to rates on freight is taken care of by the Seattle office of the company, Mr. Monwaki said. Because of Ill ness of his wife he had not visited his office yesterday. There was a possibility that instructions relative to reduced rates might await him at the office, he stated. - RATE WAR LTE. T DENIED Scuttle Agent for Blue Funnel Line Makes Statement. SEATTLE. Wash., Nov. 19. J. J. Middleton. resident agent for Dodwell & Co., agents for the Blue Funnel line, in a statement tonight said the Blue Funnel line had not re-entered the Pacific westbound conference, as has been reported at San Francisco, but that such a move was under con sideration. A meeting of local mem bers of the conference will be held here tomorrow, at which- time. Mr. Middleton said, the matter of re entering the Blue Funnei line would be considered. . Mr. Middleton said his company had been out of the conference more than nine months and that San Francisco members of the conference were ''un necessarily alarmed' by reports that his company and the Mitsui company were contemplating a. rate-cutting campaign. JAPS RE-ENTER CONFERENCE British Concern Announces No Re- duct ion in Hates. SAN FRANCISCO. Nov. 19. Resolu tion of a situation which yesterday was said to indicate a Pacific freight rate war was announced tonight by Daulton Mann, a member of the Pa cific westbound conference. Yester day Mann announced that the Blue Funnel line, a British concern, and the Mitsui line, a Japanese establishment had withdrawn from the conference presumably with the intention of fix ing rates lower than those arranged by the conference. Tonight he said the Mitsui line had re-entered the con ference and the British establishment had indicated it would not reduce rates. terious chap, who was never glimpsed by anyone, had relatives. Ford was excited when he went to Mr. Nicholas, explaining that he had just arrived in the city and had lo cated his man and the man was with his relatives on the east side. In view of the peculiarities of the case as related to him by Ford, Mr. Nicholas promised not to report the matter to the police, but to help arrange a settlement out of court, such as Ford declared he beHeved the rel atives of the young man would be willing to make. The attorney also agreed to assist as much as possible by handling the affairs from his of fice. ...Ford told the attorney he had been shadowing: the thief for a week Bonds Are Declared Sold Ford related all of this on his first visit to the office of the attorney. On the next day,. Tuesday, November 2, Ford returned to the office with the announcement that he had cornered he thief and that the man had con fessed to the taking of the bonds. Ford declared that the man had sold the bonds and had squandered part of the money, but that the thief de clared he would make a clean breast of the affair to his uncle, the sup posed prominent Portland business man, and would ask his uncle to make up what he had spent. ' . The resultant supposed negotiations took the rest of the week. Finally, Ford returned to the office of Nich olas and there met Nicholas' son, to whom he said he would likely receive the check iu settlement on Saturday and that he would have it certified. Young Nicholas, who is associated with his father, told Ford that as the elder Nicholas would be out Of the city that day he had better make it payable to him. On Saturday, less than a week after Ford had come to the i city to recover his lost bonds, Ford was back in the office with a check for $3032 drawn on the State Bank of Portland and properly certified. He was accompanied by a man who posed as the thief's uncle and who explained how he was anxious to give the erring boy another chance, as he was not a criminal, but merely a down-and-out lad of 18, who had fallen into the clutches of an unscrupulous woman at the time he stole the bonds. "Uncle" Viiil (s Attorney. The supposed uncle tendered to one of Nicholas' eons, who was present, the check in payment of the bonds in full. These were worth $2800 at issue, it was said, and there was $32 interest due at the time of their loss and to the check was added 200 additional to cover the $100 as attorney's fees and $100 for Ford's expense in following the thief from Canada to Portland. The supposed uncle, of the thief then told how badly the family felt over the matter, explained that the family was a prominent one in the city and that the mother of the bey had-been prostrated at the news. With many embellishments and some realistic touches to the story, the supposed uncle then left Ford and the young lawyer to settle their affairs. Ford stated that he wished to get out of tovn that day, so wanted to settle up at once. The check was certified. Accord ingly, the son of the lawyer sat down and wrote out a check on the North western National bank for $2932, the amount of the check less the $10- fee, and tendered the check to Ford. Together, they went to the bank and CROWS ATTACK' HUNTER More Than 500 Birds Killed and Wounded In Battle. , SIOUX CITY. Ia., Nov. 19. (Spe cial.)

Although members of the council. Including President Gompers. were disinclined to talk of proceedings in the executive sessions, it is known that certain programmes were dis cussed which by common consent will practically become policies of the or ganization. These include what was described as a healthy stand against radicalism within organised labor and for sharp restriction of immigration. There was also an almost unani mous agreement among the labor heads, it is understood, for closer co operation between rabor and indus tnial interests. In this, labor leaders believed- they were promoting the dual purpose of eliminating waste and Inefficiency and -creating an at mosphere which would foster greater production. The council was said to have made plain in its discussions its realization of world needs in this re spect and members of the council held that labor's conduct should be such that no blame for low output could attach to the workers. Conferences Are Planned. It Was said that council members had planned a series of conferences with industrial experts looking to gradual establishment of a co-operation which many ' deem invaluable. Some such conferences were held within the last year. Including that with Herbert Hoover, food adminis trator, who met here with the council early this week. Mr. Gompers was represented as being highly pleased with the results of the Hoover and other conferences and had expressed a desire to continue them. The plea was made In council Jiere on more than one occasion, it was said, that labor leaders employ every effort to clear their attitude of sus picion which some leaders held had attached to labor's position when seeking reforms. The belief that this might handicap labor in seeking ad vice of industrial experts as the labor programme is developed was said to have been expressed. Unqualified support is said to have been given the stand against radi calism, within and without organized labor, as voiced by President Gompers and Vice-President Woll, whose de nouncement of the "borers from with in" lias been spread broadcast among the workers. The statement of the federation president regarding radi cal foreign labor and the suppression of destructionists also was accorded the council's entire approval. Radical Control Unlikely. .Consideration was given to methods by which the radical workers could be barred from organized labor, but this apparently was set down as en unsolvable problem so long as the federation's bylaws remain un: changed. The leaders," however, are said to be determined in their stand to keep radical groups from gaining executive control, even if the govern ing body has no alternative but to let them carry union cards.
