24 THE SUNDAY OEEGONIAN, PORTLAND,- NOVEMBER 15, 1903. TEN YEARS FOR ROBBER BOY BANDIT IS MADE AN EXAM PLE OF BY COURT. Charles Hoehn, Who Helped Hold Up O. R. & N. Train, Reoelves a Severe Sentence. Ttn years in the penitentiary "was the Sentence pronounced by Judge Cleland yes terday on Charles Hoehn, the boy vrho was concerned In the holdup of a train of the O. R. & N. Co., near Corbett In September last. (Hoehn pleaded eullty to a charge of assault with Intent to rob H. L. Stevenson, the Axeman of the train. Two other In formations against him In -which he -was accused of attempting to rob O. 1. Bar rett, the engineer, and Smith, the brake man, were dismissed with the consent of A. I Mohler, president of the O. R. & N. Co. E. J. Tracy, attorney for Hoehn, ad dressed the court, stating that there were extenuating circumstances connected with the case. "He was attending school in the faiate of "Washington where there is a cooperative colony," said Hoehn's counsel, "when be met Miner, who was the leader of the party iiner proposed a trip to aiexico, and the boy agreed to go. They came to Goble, where they met Harsh man, whose true name is Williams. After "wards they came to Portland and pur chased some powder, the boy not know ing for what purpose. Next they went -up tho Columbia River for a few days. On the night of the train robbery they went to Corbett, where Miner placed a rifle in Hoehn's hands and told him what to do. This was the flrst time the boy was aware the intention was to hold up a train, xxe was instructed not to let the passengers come out of the cars. Miner came along and asked the boy, "why don't you do something?' and took his rifle and flred it oft 'several times to frighten the passengers. After the failure to rob the train he proceeded with Miner as far as "Wnatcom, where he left him and returned to his old home at Sammlsh Flats and went to work in a shingle mill. He Is only 1& years old and did not realize what he was doinp. "He was overcome by the superior will of Miner, witn whom he severed his con nection after the attempted robbery just as Boon as he could." Deputy District Attorney Spencer con tradicted the statement of the case made by Mr. Tracy in several particulars. Mr. Spencer said that Hoenn having pleaded guilty to one information the others would bo dismissed. This action was taken by the District Attorney's office with the ap proval of President Mohler, of the O. R. & K- Co., and counsel said this was as far as thoy should go in extending leniency to the prisoner. "Statements made by him In the County Jail," said Mr. Spencer, "would convict blm if he was tried before any jury. He was not led into this crime altogether. He discharged his rifle several times, and held up the brakeman. Smith. Stevenson, the fireman, was covered by Harshman, and Barrett, the engineer, by Miner, with a shotgun. After the shooting of Harsh jnan. and when he was supposed to have been killed, the weapons he had were taken by the boy, who also took from Harshman what money he had In his pocket. Four charges could have been preferred against this prisoner. In view of the fact of the nature of this offense and that the punishment should serve as a warning and have a deterrent effect on others, both young irin and old men, I think a severe penalty should be imposed." Judge Cleland, in passing sentence, re marked that the offense was a serious one and that in dismissing two informations all the clemency had been extended which the court ought to allow when the magni tude of the offense was considered. In conclusion. Judge Cleland said: "The court believes its duty to the public re quires that you shall be punished and pun ished severely. The sentence of this court is that you ba conflned in the penitentiary for a period of ten years. The sentencing of Harshman Is posts poned, for the reason that he is still un der the care of County Physician E. P. Geary- The court ordered the release of James McGuIre and James Bryden, who were held as witnesses. The men stopped at McGuire's place at Government Island. McGulre was brought to the County Jail several days ago for the second time, and it was then said that he might be charged as a principal, but there was not enough svlceuce to hold him. LAWYERS COME HIGH. .Many Attorneys Testify as to Value of Services in Land Case! Numerous attorneys testified in Judge dears' Court yesterday in the suit of Bauer & Greene against "William M. Bray and Marshal J. Kinney, as to what the services of Bauer & Greene were worth for examining the title of 100,000 acres of land, and making an abstract, which took months of constant work. W. T. Mulr said a reasonable fee would be $5000 to $7500. Fred V. Holman considered $5000 the lowest fee which should be charged. Judge C. H. Carey placed the amount at $5000 to $10,000. Robert T. Piatt's figures were $4500 to $5000. J. C. Flanders testified that $5000 was a. reasonable fee. J. V. Beach also considered $5000 a rea sonable sum. H. H. Northup, who has practiced law for 33 years, said $4500 to $CO0O was about right Judge Thomas O'Day calculated $5000 to 5G000 a reasonable fee. E. C. Bronaugh's figures were $4500 to $0000. E. B. "Watson, ex-Justice of the Supreme Court, who is familiar with the history of the land, expressed an opinion that the -.work of examining the title was worth $2000, but would not say how much addi tional should be charged for a guaranteed abstract of title. It came out at the trial yesterday that Bray and Kinney lost the $C5,000 option they had on the land by not paying the balance of the purchase price, $535,000. The deal they expected to make fell through. They had the option extended six months, but still could not succeed in making things go as they had anticipated.'' They intended to sell the land to other parties at a large profit. Coovert & Stapleton, attorneys for Bray and Kinney, endeav ored to make the point that in making out their bill Bauer & Greene should have considered the fact that their clients never finally purchased the land. Wasn't Asked to Go. A nonsuit was granted by Judge George yesterday in the $10,000 damage case of P. M. Massey against M. Seller & Co. Massey was injured by falling Into an elevator shaft and the place was viewed by the Judge and jury. In granting a nonsuit Judge George said he was con vinced from the evidence that If Massey had not walked back into a dark place in the store he would not have met with the accident, and he was not asked to go there, but went of his own accord. Woman Thief Must Go to Jail. Ninety days in the county jail was the sentence imposed upon Emma Johnson in the State Circuit Court yesterday for stealing two dress skirts from Mrs. E. C. Goddard. The young woman pleaded guilty several days ago. Her husband, Admer T. Johnson, is serving a five years' term in the penitentiary for robbery. Eight Years for Ten Cents. Edwin Arpln, who pleaded guilty to rob bing C. A. Fletcher of 10 cents on the public highway at the point of a revolver, was sentenced to eight years in the pen j tentiary by Judge Cleland yesterday. Ar pin had nothing to say when afforded an opportunity by the court to make a speech. Several days ago he fainted when brought into the courtroom to be sen tenced, but yesterday he succeeded In controlling himself. He was born and raised in Portland, and at the time of his arrest confessed to numerous robberies and also to the crime of arson, all of which he afterwards denied. Court Notes. Frederick E. "Wyatt, who passed a, bogus bank check for $10 on George A. Xane, was sentenced to two years and a half in the penitentiary yesterday morn ing by -Judge Cleland. "Wyatt pleaded guilty, and had no excuse to offer. The St. Paul Fire & Marine Insurance Company filed suit against the Arrow Navigation Company to recover f!52 for insuring the steamer Telephone. Of this sum $217 is alleged to be due for taking ,a builder's risk of $27,000 on the Telephone and $225 for hull Insurance placed by M. C. Harrison & Co. The Insurance was written In June, 1903, and cancelled last September bj' mutual consent. MORGAN TAKES THE BONDS. Lake Shore Issue of Fifty Millions Secured Under Contract. XEW YORK, Nov. 14.

The storm central yesterday evening off the mouth of the Columbia River has divided Into two parts; one of which Is now central over Western British Columbia and the other over the Great Salt Lake Basin. This disturbance has caused severe gales along the coast and high winds on the Sound and Straits. At the mouth of the Columbia River a maximum ve- BAB HABITS, improper Food Often Leads to To bacco and Drink. Improper food creates abnormal tastes and there are many cases on the medical records where the llauor habit and tobacco habit have been caused by wrong food and ' have easily been cured by the use of the scientific food Grape-Nuts, which so thor oughly nourishes and rebuilds the nerves that they stop the cry for stimulants. A business man says: "For 30 years I smoked on an average of 10 or 15 cigars a day and then my nervous system col lapsed and I had about made up my mind that it was all up with me for I had tried many times to break off from the to bacco, but it always failed. "Last May I was so run down I only weighed 111 pounds, and I realized that I must stop smoking and stuck to it for about 10 days, but was so nervous and out of sorts my family told me I had bet ter go back to smoking, as It was impos sible to live with me. It was just about this time my wife brought a package of Grape-Nuts on the table one morning, and as I could eat nothing else, she ln- I duced me to try a little of that. So I took j a teaspoonful of it and, strange to say. ii uisiea boou, udu uy ino ume l naa it down I knew it had gone to the right spot, so I took some more, and It was the first food I had relished for weeks. "So I kept up the use of Grape-Nuts and as my appetite came back added other foods and I am now back to my old weight of 133 pounds, never felt better in my life and, strange as it may seem, I have no further craving for the tobacco and I thoroughly believe that only the courage and ambition I got out of the food Grape-Nuts has given me the strength to quit smoking. If everyone knew the power of this wonderful food you would not be able to build a factory big enough to supply It." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. There's a reason.
