THE SUNDAT OKEGONIAN, PORTLAND, NOVEMBER 20, 190. M 3 MANIA IS TO KILL Salt Lake Student Would Spare No Woman. YOUNG, CiRL IS ATTACKED Her Throat Is Slashed With a Large Penknife. ASSAULTED IN HEART OF CITY Several Persons Immediately Sur round the Young Man, and Lynch Ing Only Averted by Prompt Action of the Police. SAliT LAKH CITY, Nov. 19. Roy Scott, a young: college student whose mania is to kill -women, -was captured to day after making his second attempt at murder. He narrowly escaped lynching at the hands of an infuriated mob, but was safely landed in jail by the police. The murderous assault today occurred at the Intersection of Main and Second South streets, tho busiest corner of the city. In broad daylight, Scott met Elsie Gallacher on the street and suddenly reaching out with a large pen knife slashed her across the throat, cutting a leep gash about an inch in length. The J act was seen by a number of people, who quickly surrounded the youth and hand led him roughly until he -was rescued by the police. The girl -was not seriously hurt. At the police station young Scott con fessed he had made a similar assault upon Mary Burton about five weeks ago. At the time, the Burton girl's story that she had been slashed in the throat on Main street by a man she did not recog nize, excited much comment, but no effort was made to locate the guilty per son. Young Scott is the 22-year-old son of Walter Scott, secretary of a mining ma chinery company and a prominent Free Mason. He is a student in the Latter Day Saints ifnlverslty and has always been nervous and subject to hysterical attacks. By his own statement he is a homicidal maniac. "The impulse to do wrong comes over me at times and I cannot resist it," is his statement to the police. Elsie Gallacher, the victim of today's assault, is 19 years old and well connect ed. She had never seen Scott before his attack upon her. CHAUFFEUR SHOT BY ROBBERS Chicago Man Loses His Life for Frus trating Plans of Patrons. CHICAGO, Nov. 19. Shot dead in an automobile by bank robbers, -whose plot the victim of the tragedy had dis covered and whose plans he had frus trated, is one explanation of the mys terious death of William Bate, chauffeur, whose corpse and machine were found on a lonely roadside today. This theory -was advanced by Bate's employer after an Investigation of the circumstances. The idea Is that the men who hired the automobile were bank robbers and contemplated a raid on some bank in some small town. Investigation at the Auditorium to day developed the fact that a man glv ing the name of "Dobbs" had appeared at the hotel last evening and had asked Edward Slavln, the hotel telephone op erator, to have Daniel Canary send an automobile to the Auditorium entrance at once. That Bate did not commit suicide, but was shot down by an assassin, is indicated by the finding of an empty cartridge shell today in the Tonneau of the automobile. At the company's office it was said today that when the call was received last night a machine for two was asked for. William Bate, the dead chauffeur, had been connected with the Canary Company for several years and was well known as a fast driver. The circumstances surrounding the death of Bate were made more puzzling tonight by the report that a woman was in the automobile a short time before Bate Is believed to have been killed. John S. Eiler. a farmer, gave this infor mation to the police late tonight. He said he was aroused about 11 o'clock by loud knocking at the door of his house and when he demanded to know who was there, a man replied: "Will you let me in if I go to the rear door? I must get in, for I am in dan gen" Eiler offered to open the door if tho man would give his name, but he refused to give It and Eiler, thinking It was a plan to "rob him, did not open it. The man returned to the automobile, where Eiler says he heard voices in a vehement dispute, among them that of a woman The machine went south from the house and about half a mile further on it stopped at the house of DennfiT Connors. where a man knocked on the door, but as there was loud talking in the road and because of thelateness of the hour, Connors did not open the door, and tho man who was knocking at the door re turned to the automobile, which went north. Two letters found in the possession of the dead man offered a suggestion that Bate's death might have been the result of a love affair. This theory. however, is not regarded seriously by the police. One of the letters read "Dear Bate I understand that you have won the love of Bertha and I pre sume that you have no further use for me. I hope that your future love will be successful. Of course. It is pretty hard on me, but I will let the matter drop and say no more. With love. "ROSE L. The police tonight arrested three men, and although none of them answers the description of Dove, it is hoped to gain some information from them. Two of tne arrested men are colored. When arrested the men were carrying several suits of new clothing, supposed to be the pro ceeds of a burglary committed In Trc- mont. The theory advanced by the police Is that the men accosted Bate after the lat ter had taken Dove to Tremont and de manded that he take them to Chicago In the automobile. . When Bate refused the police believe the men killed him. CIRCUS ROBBED OF $30,000. Forepaugh & Sells Pay-Wagon Broke Into in South Carolina. NORFOLK. Va.. Nov. 12.

Buying in the real estate market for the past week has not been very general, but a few big deals, which have been con summated, make the real estate brokers feel better than they have all Summer. They had fears for a time that the wily measure of waiting till after the Fair to buy would put them out of another year's business, and prices would not rise to their proper height. But the indica tions are now that this sleuth-like trick propagated by gumshoe Investors is not going to pay. People want property for actual use now. and the mere buying or. It for that purpose Is going to make a higher price for all property, and the purchaser with pneumatic heels is going to be out The Fair is a temporary thing, but those Investing now see that there will be such a rush for all kinds of Improved property next year that they will be able to skim the cream off the investment in the Fair year and lay back on ordinary profits till they get ready to sell. The bogie "slump" is now laid at rest, and no one fears that this will not be just as good a town after the lights go out for the last time on the Lewis and Clark grounds as before. There will be a large floating population leaving town, but the absence will, not be felt It Is typical of cales being made now that the purchasers are ready to build im mediately. Two quarters of the block on upper Washington street, which has belonged to Trinity Church for years. were sola recently ana tne purcnasers, the Bushong Printing Company and the Irwin-Hodson Printing Company, will build offices and shops on their property during the Winter. The Oriental American Company is fin ishing up a hotel on the property at the corner of Seventh and Stark, purchased last Winter. Dr. EL H. Parker is finishing another hotel on the corner of West Park and Morrison streets, and .the Blazler brothers have built a modern brick on their lot, purchased less than a year ago. two blocks below on Washington street. The real estate market here never seems to amount to a great deal, because so lit tle fuss is made over a sale, and when a sale is made It is always an investment and not a speculation. The largest pur chases of recent date have been made by Charles Sweeny, of Spokane, who has been Investing money here for some months. First he purchased the Dekum property, consisting of the building on the comer of Third and Washington streets and the family homestead on up per Morrison street Since then he has attempted to buy the Portland Hotel, and has finally bought the half block Immedi ately west He has sold nothing and does not Intend to sell. But he Is about to build a large modern business block on his most recent purchase recorded among the past week's transfers. Of the past weeks transfers those of- the 14th aggregate over $2,500,000 on ac count of the consolidation of the street car companies, the property of tho two being transferred on that day.

NEW YORK, Nov. 20. At least 12 lives were lost In a fire in a Brooklyn tenement house early today, and the firemen are searching for other bodies. It Is believed the death list will equal 15.

Shortly aftr 2 o clock this morning flames were found In the cellar of No. 185 Troutman street a three-story frame tenement-house, and by the time the fire men arrived the stairways and airshafts were ablaze and the halls filled with smoke. Three other alarms were turned In and soon a large detachment of fire men was at work fighting the fire. Despite the efforts of the firemen the flames spread to the adjoining tenements. 1S2, 184, 1SS and 190. The occupants of these bouses were early notified of their danger and it is believed that all escaped. The firemen found the dead bodies of nine persons shortly after their arrival at the scene and another was added to the number within a few minutes. Fur ther search was rewarded by the finding of the bodies of a man and a woman in a bedroom on the top floor of No. IBS. They were severely burned, but death, as in the cases of the other victims, had been due to- suffocation. The first floor of the building, where the fire originated, was occupied by Antonio Glambalvos, who conducted a grocery store, his living apartments being in the rear. Tho flames were first found; ac cording to those who turned in the first alarm, in the cellar Immediately under this store and they communicated with lightning rapidity to the upper floors of the house.

BIG SPLIT IN PARTY Irish Nationalists in a Vdry Lively Row. JOHN REDMOND PROVOKES IT Leader Is Warned to Refrain From Siding With O'Brien or Dillon Sexton-Davitt Forces Will Secede. LONDON. Nov. 19. The Irish National ist party is on the verge of a serious spilt. Unless some amicable arrangement can quickly be arrived at, Messrs. Dillon and Sexton, with fchelr personal following, will secede from the leadership of John Red mond. In this event, Mr. Redmond will have the aggressive support of William O'Brien, over whom a dispute has arisen. In recent speeches in Ireland, Mr. Red mond Is held to have openly sided with Mr. O'Brien regarding the differences of opinion which have long existed between Mr. O'Brien and the Dillon-Sexton-Davltt faction. It Is stated on good authority that Mr. Redmond has been told that un less he withdraws his support from Mr. OBrfen secession will result. No definite conclusion has been reached, but it Is understood Mr. Redmond prefers to throw in his lot with Mr. O'Brien. In the event of the breach becoming a definite fact, it Is thought the party would at the moment be fairly evenly divided, O'Brien's tremendous popularity in tne bouth being offset by the Sexton's powerful organ, the Freemason Journal. and the more radical following of Messrs. Davltt and Dillon. Such a division prob ably, would leave the followers of Mr. Healy with what might become the bal ance of power and this, according to d res ent indications, would be thrown in favor of Messrs. Redmond and O'Brien. The present International crisis is the result of tho gradually Increasing dis agreement over the action Instigated by O'Brien and carried out by Mr. Redmond in their famous land-purchase conference witn the Irish landlords.

Missouri Senator Considered for Pan ama Canal Commissioner. WASHINGTON. Nov. 19. While- no an nouncement has yet been made regarding tne President's action in the selection of a man to succeed Colonel Frank J. Heck- er on tho Isthmian Canal Commission. It is known he is considering seriously the appointment of Senator Francis M. Cockrell, of Missouri, to the vacancy. It is Intimated that Senator .Cockrell himself practically will have the deter mination of the matter. If his health will permit him to undertake tho arduous work of the commission It is reasonably cer tain he can have tho appointment- The President holds Senator Cockrell In high esteem personally, and officially feels that the service of a man of his character and ability should not bo lost to the Government, if the Senator should de sire to continue In active public work. If the Senator should conclude he does not care to undertake the work of the .Canal Commission, it 13 certain the Presi dent will givo him some congenial po sition befitting his character and services, Cockrell Expresses Deep Appreciation KANSAS CITY.

The Chinese Minister to France, Souen Pao Kip Pao Ki, has come out as an advocate of applying Sec retary Hay's open-door policy to Manchu ria, The Minister clings to the liberal, progressive element, and has recently ad dressed a memorial to tho throne, urging me gravity oi tne questions which will arise when the present war ends, particu larly the maintenance of China's sover eignty over Manchuria. In the course ot an Interview today, the Minister said: whether Russia or Japan Is victorious. it will be essential that the victor recog nize China's complete authority over Man- cnuna. it will bo natural for the victor to expect special privileges within tho ter ritory forming the theater of tho conflict, but China's rights in Manchuria being un questionable, neither belligerent can claim privileges growing- out of coming to ngnt upon our territory. If any single power gains special orlvi- leges In Manchuria," It will operate against tne interests or all .tho other powers. Therefore it is to the interest of the world at large to foresee tho conclusion of the war and guard against either of the pow ers obtaining the privileged position in Manchuria. The court at Pekln is now. considering certain measures for reform, and It is quite possible that one of the chief results will be an extension of the open-door policy to Manchuria and cer tain other parts of the empire which thus far have been outside the range of the open door." The Russian Embassy has temporarily assumed the aspect of a hospital, owing to the arrival of a number of survivors of the battle of Chemulpo. Some have lost arms or legs, but are In an advanced stage of recovery. The wounded are proceeding by easy stages to Bt. Petersburg.

The mention of sulphur will recall to many of us the early days when our mothers and grandmothers gave us our dally dose of sulphur and molasses every Spring and Fall. It was the universal Spring and Fall "blood purifier," tonic and cure-all, and mind you, this old-fashioned remedy was not without merit. The Idea was good, but tho remedy was crude and unpalatable, and a large quan tlty had to be taken to get any effect. Nowadays, we got all the beneficial ef fects of sulphur In a palatable, concen trated form, so that a single grain is far more effective than a tablespoonful of the crude sulphur. In recent years, research and experiment have proven that the best sulphur for medicinal use Is that obtained from Cal cium (Calcium Sulphide) and sold In drug stores under the name of Stuart's Cal cium Wafers. They are small chocolate- coated pellets and contain the active me didnal principle ot sulphur In a highly concentrated, effective form. Few -people are aware of the value of fht form of sulphur In restoring and maintaining bodily vigor and health; sulphur acts directly on the liver and ex cretory organs, and purifies and enriches the blood by the prompt elimination of waste material, Our grandmothers knew this when they dosed us with sujphur and molasses every Serins and Fall, but the crudity and lm purity of ordinary flowers of sulphur were often worse than the disease, and cannot compare witn tne raouern concentrated preparations of sulphur, of which Stuart'3 Calcium Wafers is undoubtedly the best and most widely used. They are the natural antidote for liver and kidney troubles and cure constlpa tion and purify the blood in a way that often surprises patient and physician alike. Dr. R. M. Wllkins. while experimenting with sulphur remedies, sooa found that the sulphur from Calcium was superior to any other form. He says: For liver. kidney and blood troubles, especially when resulting from constipation or malaria. I have been surprised at the results ob tained from Stuart's 'Calcium Wafers. In patients suffering from boils and pimples, and even deep-seated carbuncles, I have repeatedly seen them dry up and disap pear in four- or five days, leaving the skin clear and smooth. Although Stuart's Calcium Wafers Is a proprietary article. and sold by druggists, and for that reason tabooed by many physicians, yet I know of nothing so safe and reliable for con stipation, liver and kidney troubles, and especially In all forms of skin disease, as this remedy. .

Further Delay In the Trial of Nan Patterson Is Probable. NEW YORK, Nov. 19. Further delay In the trial of Nan Patterson, the show girl, who Is charged with causing the death of Caesar Young, the bookmaker, was in dicated by rumors that were prevalent around the Criminal Court building today. A full Jury had been selected when court adjourned last night, and it was though that the real work of the trial would be begun promptly Monday morning. To day, however, a story became current that several changes would be made in the Jury before the trial would proceed. Ellwood Hendricks, the foreman, asked the court yesterday to excuse him from duty on the ground that a member of hl3 family was seriously sick. It was said that several other Jurors also had asked to be dismissed for private reasons. The requests will be considered by the court when the trial Is resumed Monday.

I was subject to liver and kidney trouble, which re sulted In rheumatic pains, but I have not had a pain since I took, Peruna, and very little liver trouble, as Peruna keeps the digestive organs in good working order, and that Is the maia. thing" Georgo Forrester. 1 " Catarrh of the Kidneys a Common; Disease. Catarrh of the kidneys is very com mon indeed. It is a pity this fact is not better known to the physicians as well as to the people. People have kidney disease. They take some diuretic, hoping to yet bet ter. They never once think of catarrh Kidney disease and catarrh are sel dom associated In the minds of the peo ple, and alas. It is not very often as sociated In the minds of the physi cians. Too few physicians recognize ca tarrh of the kidneys. Peruna Is not simply a palliative to relieve some of the -most distressing symptoms. It is a permanent and radi cal cure. - If you do not receive prompt and sat isfactory results from the use of Pe runa, write at once to Dr. Hartman giving a full statement of your case and he will be pleased to give you his valuable advice gratis.
