Detectives Say They Have
Solved the Borgus Case.
IS
PEACHES
COLORED MEN FACE THE CHARGE
A. T. Glndisace Is Held for Striking?
tkc Bloiv and Ed JohnMon for Be
ins' an Accomplice Snoir and
Kerrigan "Worked Up Case.
New evidence was discovered yesterday
by the police in the case in which Louis
BorgUE. 40 years old, of Third and Ev
erott streets, was murdered on the morn
ins of June 20. at the rear of the William
etto Iron "Works, on Hoyt street, near
Third, when he was robbed of his watch
and chain and money and dealt his death
blow by being struck on the head with
some blunt instrument, supposed to be a
sandbag. Two colored men, A. T. Glad
issee and Ed Johnson, were formally
charged yesterday by the police with be
ing the principals in the murder, and the
police say the new evidence shows that
Gladlsseo struck the blow that killed
Borgus and that Johnson, who was Glad
issee's accomplice, was present at the
time. Both men were arrested by Detec
tives Snow and Kerrigan, and the case
worked up by them.
"We a-e now satisfied that we have the
right men." said Chief of Police Mc
Lauchlan, last night, but beyond this he
would say nothing more at thoi present
time. The detectives also refused to talk
about the nature of the new evidence, and
it is thought the reason for this silence
is that the police do not wish the defend
ants' lawyers to know the probable line
of prosecution until the case is heard be
fore the jury. Gladissee was arrested
June 20 at Ruhl's lodging-house. Second
and Everett streets, and was at first hold
as a -witness. Johnson was 'arrested a
day or so afterward.
Evidence given before the Coroner's
Jury showed that Gladissee and Borgus
drank liquor together in the Gutenberg
saloon, Third and Everett streets, and
that they left the saloon together, about
11 o'clock on the evening of June 19. At
that time the police could not discover
the subsequent movements of Borgus and
Gladissee, except that they were seen go
ing nqrth on Third street. Yesterday the
police admitted they had witnesses who
can testify that they saw Borgus and
pladissee leave another saloon after mid
night, June 20, and walk toward the Ter
minal yards. Borgus was found mur
dered, with his skull fractured. June 20,
at 7 A. M., and the medical autopsy
showed that he must have been killed six
or seven hours previously. The linings of
his pockets were turned inside out, .show
ing that the motive for tho deed was
robbery. Charles Wilson, bartender at
the Gutenberg saloon, testified: "I swear
that Gladissee is the man who left the
saloon with Borgus. I tried to prevent
Borgus going- with the colored man, be
cuuse I -ft as afraid Gladissee would rob
him."
When the facts connected with the mur
der were first reported to the police, the
trail was over seven hours old, and there
were no clews to work on. Detectives
Kerrigan and Snow secured a descrip
tion of the colored man who left the sa
loon with Borgus, and tb,e result was that
Gladissee was arrested. It was argued
that Gladissee had an accomplice, as in
most of the recent Whltechapel highway
robberies the robbers have been two col
ored men. It was next learned that
Johnson was Gladlfsee's "pal" and had
been, seen with him on the morning of
the murder.
Gladissee was interviewed last night in
the police station by an Oregonlan man,
nnd he hinted that he had already been
examined by representatives of the Dis
trict Attorney's office. "I haven't much to
tell except that I did not kill that man
Borgus," said the prisoner. "I have al
ready admitted that I drank with him
that night in the Gutenberg saloon, and
the bartender objected to me. I went out
of the saloon and loft Borgus there. I
went straight home, and didn't see Bor
gus after that. I'm 19 years old, and was
born in Alabama. Before I came to Port
land I was at Salt Lake City, Utah. Say,
if I was guilty of this murder I'd own up
to it 'Deed I would."
From an inside source it was learned
that the working up of the case present
ed unusually difficult features, that no
"tip" was given, and thit Gladissee and
Johnson were landed in Jail and new evi
dence secured against them by hard work
on the part of the firm of Kerrigan &
Snow.
TO HELP WOMEN IN INDIA
Branch of Indo-Anierlcan Lengoe
Formed In Portland.
A meeting of the Indo-Amerlcan League,
of which a temporary organization has
been effected, will be held Monday after
noon at the Norton. This will be in the
nature of a farewell meeting to Mrs. W. C.
Wallace and Miss Josephine M. Holmes,
of Los Angeles, who are devoting them
selves to the formation of these leagues
in the United States, and who are to
leave for Los Angeles in tho evening.
They lived in India for a period, studying
the country, and were struck with the
need of ameliorating the conditions of
the women of India, and especially of
reforming the marrlago customs of that
country, which permit the giving of chil
dren in wedlock, and result in a virtual
state of slavery. In Los Angeles and San
Francisco branches of the league have
beon organized, and the leading women
of the cities Interested in the movement.
To this work Mrs. Wallace and Miss
Holmes are devoting themselves from phil
anthropic motives, and will attempt to
spread the organization over the United
States, when an effective plan of arousing
international sentiment and ending the
abuses will be devised.
Women Interested are Invited to attend
the meeting at the Norton Monday after
neon at 3 o'clock. There is no initiation
foe. and the dues, 50 cents a year will
be devoted to the. work of the league.

lawyers, are fined 52000 each; John O'Don-
