THE MORNING OREGONIAX. FRIDAY. OCTOBER 28, 1921
HEBSON FAILS
TO RECALL MURDER
Circumstances Surrounding
Stabbing Not Remembered.
CASE RESTED BY DEFENSE
Alienists Testify Slayer of Wife
Mentally Vnbalanced; Insanity
riea Gains Weight.
In a voice which was as expres
sionless as his face and that resem
bled nothing: so much as a death
mask Joseph J. Henderson told a
Jury In the court of Circuit Judge
Tucker yesterday that he could -re
call none of the circumstances sur
rounding the actual stabbing of his
ex-wlfe, Gertrude, on the morning 01
August 8.
"I wanted to pto upstairs and see
my baby. She wouldn't let me. I
laid my head on the table, it just
seemed like the end of the world had
come something awful had hit me.
The next I knew I heard some police
men cursing my mother." This was
Henderson's story of the tragedy.
The slayer spoke In a low, dull
tone, which carried scarcely to the
center of the courtroom. As he talked
a thin, white hand continually rubbed
Jils chin or cheek. One eye gone, his
cheeks sunken, his skin an unhealthy
pallor, Henderson appeared as a man
staring death in the face. He coughed
frequently.
Defense Ilesta Case
At 4:20 yesterday afternoon the de
fense rested Its case and the prosecu
tion besan its rebuttal testimony.
The case may come to a close this
morning, with arguments to the Jury
beginning before noon.
Persistent attempts on the part of
the defene to inject religious prej
udice into the case met with a severe
setback in the course of the after
noon testimony in rebuttal. The de
fense stressed the case that Mrs. Hen
derson had burned up a Masonic
apron belonging to Henderson, and
that this was one of the acts wnicn
preyed on his mind. Thayne Hender
son, 10-year-old son of the slayer,
testified that he saw his mother burn
the apron.
Jack Beach, Mrs. Merle Steinmeyer
and Mrs. Virgil King, brother and
sisters of the deceased, said by
Thayne to have been present at the
burning, testified that the apron was
not among effects burned, and the
stats produced a Masonic apron, iden
tified by Mrs. Steinmeyer as having
been found among her dead sister's
effects.
Defense Plea Gains Weight.
Dr. S. E. Joseph! and Dr. W. T.
Williamson, prominent alienists pro
duced by the defense, gave consider
able weight to the plea of Insanity.
Both were asked if they thought
Henderson was insane on the morn
ing of the murder. Both replied thai
they believed he was and further
that subsequent personal examina
tions of the man in the county jail
had convinced them that he was un
balanced. They conceded that the man might
have been shamming in the jail but
that they did not believe his insanity
was feigned. They diagnose-d his
case as "manic depressive insanity"
of a recurrent type.
Mrs. Frank Leslie, aunt of the de
ceased, testified that several months
before the last divorce suit Thayne
Henderson had told his mother that
his father had written out the testi
mony the child was to give in the
case and was requiring the boy to
memorize it. During this and sub
sequent impeaching testimony of
state's witnesses, the boy sat tense
in the chair beside his father, his
hands held in a tight grip by Hen
derson. Answers Not Consistent.
Henderson's answers to some of
the questions put by his attorney,
Barnett Goldstein, were rambling.
He said his age was "somewheres
around S3." that he was 20 years old
when he married in 1910, that he had
been married "15 or 14 years." He
declared he had between 3000 and
14000 saved up when he married, that
he built a house, and that both house
and money are "gone."
"When was your first cnua oorn.
asked Goldstein.
"1900, replied Henderson.
"No. Joe. you were married in 1910.
How long after was your first child
born?"
"Ten years.
'That's the boy's age, isn't it?"
"I guess so."
"Was your second child a boy or a
jlrl?"
I think It's a (tin."
"What Is her name?"
"Sister."
"What is the name of your third
fchlldr
"Brother."
Henderson said he would have "got
along fine" with his wife If her folks
had left them alone, paying that "her
mother continually interfered," and
that her father showed his dislike
for her husband ever since marriage.
Asked concerning the first divorce
suit In 1917, which Mrs. Henderson
filed, Henderson den'ed her allega
tions that he had threatened her life.
"What was the trouble?" was asked.
"Oh, she had a fellow with more
money than I did, I guess," he said
listlessly.
"What was his name?"
"Mouser."
"What caused her to bring the sec
end divorce?"
'Continuation of the same thing."
"Did you continue to love her?"
"Up to this minute."
"Why did you file the third suit?"
"Oh, I got a hold of some terrible
letters and she wouldn't allow me to
see the children or come back to her."
He left home, he testified, because
he had told him If he was not out
when she returned from town "she'd
throw my stuff into the street." This
was In November, 1920.
Fright Is Recalled.
After the last divorce suit was
started and was pending. Henderson
said he was "wared to death" and
could not sleep nights.
"I'd go up and watch the babies
at night." he testified. "I wanted to
sea they weren't burned up. She'd
leave them home at night with no
body there; I'd see her get home at
2 or 3 o'clock In the morning and
then I'd go home."
"How long did this happen?"
i "Week after week."
Henderson also said that his wife's
attorney "Just hounded me to desth"
and threatened to put him In jail for
not paying fees and alimony at a
time when Henderson was sick and
out of work.
"He'd call me up at 2 and 3 o'clock
In the morning and tell me if I did
not have the money he would have
me in Jail the next day," said the
witness.
On the morning of the murder,
Henderson said he "Just got out of
bed." that he had not slept all night.
"1 thought my baby was dying," he
I declared. "I just read it or heard
somebody say there was diphtheria
up in the neighborhood and that my
, boy bad It- I couldn't go up the
j night before because her father was
mere ana ne naa toia me ne wouia
shoot my head off If I came there
when he was home. When I got
there, my wife told me the baby was
upstairs, but would not .let me go up
to see him."
Henderson said he did not recall
confessions to policemen or other
conversation of which the prosecution
produced testimony.
Asked if he had ever threatened his
wife's life, he replied: "Why, no; I
never had any Intention of hurting
my wife."
i-o you want your wile now?
asked Goldstein.
"Yes; if I could bring her back I
would." The tone held no more emo
tion than any of his other assertions.
Thayne Henderson, 10-year-old son.
was a witness for the defense. He
sad that, on the morning of the mur-
der his father got him out of bed
and told him they were going to
court, but that1 they would go around
first to see brother and sister, as
they had plenty of time. The boy
said nothing about the alleged illness
of his brother, given by the father as
a reason for going to the house.
Mrs. Anna Miller, mother of Hen
derson, testified concerning insanity
in h's family, saying that his father
itad been a drunkard, his grandfather
and his great-grandfather insane.
JAPANESE IS GUILTY
FAILURE TO SEAL LIQUOR IX
PORT HELD VIOLATION.
Judge Wolverton Holds That Mere
Possession, Without Attempt to
Smuggle, Is Offense.
Foreign steamships or their em
ployes violate the national prohibi
tion law when they have liquor, not
under seal, In their stores, according
to a decision by Judge Wolverton
yesterday in the case of Ihara Takeo,
of the Keso Maru. The decision fol
lowed an argument of the Japanese'
attorney on a demurrer that the ves
sel was under the jurisdiction of its
home country until liquor had been
brought ashore In violation of the
laws of this country.
The Japanese, who is the steward
on the Keso Maru, was arrested a
few days ago after federal agents
had discovered 48 bottles of liquor In
his possession on the craft.
Hal Lu.sk. assistant United States
attorney, filed an information charg
ing the Japanese with the violation
of the prohibition act through im
porting and possession of the liquor.
Robert Maguire, appearing for the
steward, argued a demurrer on the
grounds that there had been no im
portation of liquor and that until
there was such the defendant was un
der the Jurisdiction of the govern
ment of Japan.
"There can be no importation of
liquor until such liquor has been
placed or delivered ashore," contend
ed Maguire.
"The federal authorities will be
helpless to cope with the liquor law
violations if this man is released,"
declared Mr. Lusk. "Much of the
liquor now being smuggled Into the
country comes by ship. If these ships
were permitted to come into this port
without the observance of our laws
relative to liquor prohibition would
mean nothing."
Judge Wolverton, In making his
decision, declared that there had been
no Importation of liquor, but that the
defendant was guilty of possession of
liquor in that he had not placed It
under seal when entry to this port
was made.
No sentence was passed on the Jap
anese, due to his absence from court
under 3500 bonds.
ANOTHER PROTEST SENT
Engineers Object to Selection for
Surveyor-General.
Protest has been made with Sena
tors McNary and Stanfleld by the
Oregon chapter, American Associa
tion of Engineers, against the ap
pointing of a man to the position of
surveyor-general of Oregon who is
not a surveyor nor a technical man.
The man selected for the position by
the Oregon senators is Wesley W.
Caviness of Vale, Or., who was fa
vored ovir applicants who are engi
neers.
Recommendation that a technical
man be selected was made by the
engineers in September, and as their
suggestion has apparently been ig
nored or given scant consideration,
the chapter has again telegraphed
the senators expressing extreme re
gret that their suggestion has met
with no enthusiasm.
OFFER OF FREEDOM MADE
Prosecutor Seeks Mrs. Obenchain's
Testimony Against Burch.
LOS ANGELES. Oct. 27. An offer

office through her former husband.

in the presence of Erbstein.
District Attorney Woolwlne declined
to discuss the matter, other than to
say that he could not offer immunity
or anything until he had heard what
Mrs. Obenchaln hr.d to say.
ENTOMBED JAINERS SAVED
Copper Workers 2 300 Feet Under
Ground One Week Rescued.
BRITANNIA BEACH, B. C. Oct 27.
Two copper miners, entombed for
a week 2300 feet under the ground,
were rescued alive here tonight. A
trickle of water, air from a tiny
aperture in the shaft and their emer
gency rations served to sustain life.
The men, Francis Patenuade and L.
P. Craig, were working in the shaft
last Thursday, when a rock slide
closed the entrance. Since then res
cue gangs worked unceasingly, night
and day, cutting through the rock.
Craig and Patenuade were removed
to a hospital, where it was reported
their condition was not serious.

o'clock last night, and Investigation
disclosed that defective wiring in
connection with the X-ray machine
had kindled a blase. The X-ray, the
property of Dr. C. S. Long, was slight
ly damaged.
ENFORCEMENT OF LAW HELD
WELL SUPPORTED.
State Director Linvllle Reports Or
egon Courts, Juries and News
papers Backing Authorities.
THE OREGONIAN NEWS "BUREAU,
Washington, D. C. Oct. 27. Courts.
juries and newspapers in Oregon are
all giving strong support to enforce
ment of prohibition, Joseph A. Lin
vllle, prohibition director for Oregon,
has reported to the office of the- na
tional prohibition commissioner. Mr.
Linville said:
"State and federal juries appar
ently realize the fact that prohibition
is now a part of the constitution and
laws of the United States, and In
practically all cases thus far prose
cuted, especially in the federal courts,
where proof justified criminal pro
ceedings, successful termination has
been the nearly uniform outcome. The
unsatisfactory feature in most in
stances has been the light sentences
imposed by the courts after convic
tions have been obtained. However,
this situation is gradually being cor
rected, as heavier fines and jail sen
tences are being given where the
evidence indicates that the offender
has been a persistent violator.
"The attitude of the press of this
state can be said to be almost un
qualifiedly hostile to both bootleg
gers and moonshiners. The leading
newspapers of Portland have fre
quently in editorial comment de
plored unlawful liquor traffic and ad
vocated strict enforcement of fed
eral and state laws. The newspapers
of the state at large may be said to
entertain the same attitude, and they
have been generous in giving pub
licity to the work of this depart
ment." Obituary.

"California Fig Syrup"
Even a sick child loves the "fruity"
taste of California Fig Syrup." If
the little tongue is coated, or If your
child Is listless, cross, feverish, full
of cold, or has colic, a teaspoonful
will never fall to open the bowels. In
a few hours you can see for yourself
how tho!6ug;hly it works all the con
stipation poison, sour bile and waste
from the tender, little bowels and
gives you a well, playful child again.
Millions of mothers keep "Califor
nia Fig Syrup" handy. They know a
teaspoonful today saves a sick child
tomorrow. Ask your druggist for
genuine "California Fig Syrup," which
has directions for babies and children
of all ages printed on bottle. Mother!
You must say "California" or you may
get an Imitation fig syrup. Adv.

About Colds.
Just because you have had many
colds and always recovered from
them, you should not presume that
colds are not dangerous. It Is not the
cold Itself but the serious diseases
that It leads to that are to be guarded
against. Pneumonia often follows a
bad cold because the cold prepares the
system for the reception and develop
ment of the pneumonia germ which
otherwise would not have found lodg
ment. It is the same with many other
germ diseases. You are most likely
to contract tbem when you have a
cold. Children who have colds should
be kept out of school until they re
cover. Get rid of every cold as quick
ly as possible. In other words take
