TELLS M STORY
IN an Patterson's Version of
Caesar Young's Death.
WAS NOT GIVEN AT TRIAL
Released Actress Xow Goes Into Par
. ticulars Regarding Her, Rela
tions "With Bookmaker.
Events of Pinal Night.
Nun Patterson did not take the witness-stand
in her last trial. Her full
story, therefore, was not presented to
the jury. Her-benior counsel; Abraham
Levy, authorized the New York WorlJ
to print the story exactly as it was
originally related to him by the pris
oner. The night before Caesar Tounj? was
to sail for Europe he and the Patter
Eon woman met. rode, walked, talked
and drank together. She got to her
hotel well toward morning, very tired
and very sleepy. From that point, this
is her account of what happened on
the day of the tragedy:
Got. back to the St. Paul Hotel about
4 A. M. and went directly to bed. Next
morning my sister awakened me earl3'
and eald tnat Caesar Young had called
me up on the phone. I was too sleepy
to get up, but she called me again
and I arose. While I was dress
ing the 'phone rang and it was Mr.
Young. He wanted me to get up and
Ures and meet him as soon as I could.
I did so and met him. It was half past
seven or eight, nearer eight, when I left
tho hotel, and I hurried to Fifty-ninth
street and Columbus avenue, where Mr.
Young wanted mo to meet him. He
stood in front of a saloon. He swore
and wanted to know why I was so long
"getting there. Ho said he had had time
to get 43 horns and have a load on. His
hair was all mussed up, he had one eye
closed and showed that he had been
Uriuking.
We went into the saloon, for he said:
"I must have another drink." He or
dered two drinks of whisky and drank
both. Then we walked over to Colum
bus circle and got Into a hansom. He
did not tell me where he was going,
but I had no Idea it was to the pier
Avhere his boat was to sail.
Joked About Rrown Derby.
We took a downtown direction, and
In a little while he told the cabman to
stop at a hat store. We talked mostly
about my going -abroad, about my get
ting tne things, and the same, old
strain he had been talking of. I did not
say whether I would go or not I let
aim believe I was going, for a while.
We aJso joked. about the old brown
derby that he had on. He said It was
the funniest thing in the world that J
and Mrs. Young should both be making
fun of the same hat she had told him
be must get a new one before he sailed.
The cabman stopped at Knox's hat I
store, under the Fifth-Avenue Hotel, 1
and Mr. Young went in and bougnt v
hat. Then he called the driver to take
us somewhere where we could get a
drink. I have no idea of the route tho
cab followed, but we went to a suloou
under the elevated road somewhere,
and got out. We went into the side
door, and into a room where chairs
were piled . on the tables it was su
early In the morning. Mr. Young took
two chairs off the lirst table we cam
to, and I sat down. He started out to
;Ive the order and the man came In anJ
met him. Then he sat down opposite to
me,, but before that ho stooped over
and kissed he.
He said he wished I was going away
then, and I said I wished -so, too.
We had sumu drinks served, and then
Mr. Young took out a postal card and
wrote something on it, handing it to
me, saying: Take this? It is some
thing you might need." It was a fancy
postal card, and on the front was writ
ten: "Miss Patterson, care of Mrs.
Smith, St. Paul, Sixty-flrst and Colum
bus avenue."
We left the saloon and got into a cab
and started down town again. I sat
on the left side and he on the right. As
the cao started he said:
"Arc You Going?" Young Asked.
"Nan. 1 would not have made you get
up so early this morning, but 1 did not
.feel positive that you were coming
over." 1 did not make him any answer
for a little while and he laughed. And
I asked him why he .should say that.
He said: "Because I do not feel that
you are coming over there, but I believe
you are deceiving me." and he says:
"Are you going?" I says; "Well, Cae
sar, there is no use to say that I will
go. becauso I really do not want to.
I have made up my mind not to, but
you go over there and get things
quieted down until the folks have for
gotten about things by that time and
I will seo you at the Saratoga meet
ing." He looked at me for a little whli
and did not say anything. And he said:
"Do you mean that. Nan?" And he
grabbed me by my hand nearest to him
and pulled me toward him.
Ho hurt me so that I tried to pull
away, and I could not get away from
him, and I put my other hand up and
grabbed away from him in that way,
and in some way or other I got away
from him. He said I told him .that h
hurt me he said: "If you don't come
over there, and I have to wait until
the Saratoga meeting, I may see you lu
three months, or may never see you;
my horses have gone back on me; 1
have lost aU my money, now I am los
ing my girl; do you mean that?"
And he grabbed me with a great d'eal
of force, hurt me terribly so badly
that It made the tears come to my eye
I tried to struggle away from him
again, and In o doing I had to pull
away over.-and then there was a flash
and that .was the end.
Heard Report, Saw Xo Pistol.
1 heard a report, but I had not seen
the pistol. Mr. Young fell over my lap,
got half way up again, fell back, and
I thought he was having a spasm or
something. U& kept twitching and
twisting, and I- spoke to aim and called
him two or three times, and tried to
make him answer, and he would not
pay any attention to me at alL I knew
then something serious had happened. I
believe I -put my hand up and told the
cabman to drive-to the drugstore I do
not know whether I did or not. I know
that was jmy idea. And It seemed oh.
ags "before ,1 cQuld get anybody to pay
any attention to me or give me any aI4
at ll.
;& - .policeman jumped oh tea
front of-'the ccb and asked -we "what
had happened. When I saw him I felt
so relieved, and I knew he would take
care of Tr. Y6uag, no matter what w
the (matter with him. I lost control of
myself and seemed to be dared In my
memory from then on. I remember I
went to the hospital arid the policeman
tried to lift Mr. Young out of the cab
and his knees gave way from under
him. I do not remember how I got out
of the cab, or anything of the kind.
I did Bet sheet Cjeaar Yohhr. I had
se plstel, I never ssir tbe pistol. And 1
It wax Ih my power te bziag him back
to life I ttghIiI ttIIIIbkIj- sacrifice T
en'a life.
Events Preceding Shooting.
The events leading up to the day of the
shooting were thus described by the pris
oner to her counsel:
"I met Caesar Young on tbe train, going
to California, in the latter part of July.
1902. I was an actress then, and had been
with a 'Florodora company In the early
part of the season and later with A Chi
nese Honeymoon Having received an
offer to Join a stock company in Los
Angeles," Cal., I had resigned from the
'Chinese Honeymoon and was on my way
to take up the latter engagement.
"Caesar Young was also bound for the
Coast, to attend the tracks In California
during the racing season. Our chance
acquaintance ripened Into warm friendship
and then into love.
"I was a married woman then, having
been married to Leon James Martin in
1S38, in Baltimore, when I was only 16
years old. We had separated, however.
I knew that Mr. Young was also married,
for he told me bo.
"As a result of my meeting with Caesar
Young I did not go to Los Angeles, but
remained in his company more or less
during all of the racing season. It was
at Caesar's suggestion that I sued my
husband for divorce In order to obtain
my freedom. I was divorced In San Fran
cisco In May, 1905.
"I left the Coast and came East for
the first time in March of "last year. I
had been In New York only two weeks
when Caesar telegraphed me to come back
to San Francisco, and I went. My visit
to the East made me acquainted with
my sister Julia's husband. J. Morgan
Smith, whom I had never met before.
and gave me a chance to run down to1
my old home In Washington and seemy
father and mother.
"I went back to the Coast and met
Caesar at Los Angeles in the middle of
April, the day the races closed there. We
were together a few weeks, and then
Caesar went to San Francisco his wife
had arrived there and I followed. He
went East from there, and I also did,
but on different trains. We met by
agreement at Chicago. Then we came
East together, he going on to New York
and I to Washington.
"We corresponded regularly, each writ
ing a letter every day.
3Irs. Young Learns or Nan.
"I came to New York about May 1 and
stopped at the Navarre wrth one of my
sisters, Mrs. MHburn. 'There Caesar
came to visit me and we were very happy.
A few days later I went uptown to live
with my other sister. Mrs. Smith, and
one day Caesar came tome ana told me
that I must promise Mr. McKean. his
wile's brother, that I would go away
and never see him again. This, he said,
he wanted me to promise so that he
(Caesar) could make it up with his wife,
who had begun .to suspect bur relations.
But Caesar told me he did not. really
want me to go away only to pretend
that I would.
"The next day I went to live at a lit
tle hotel -on Forty-fifth street, but Caesar
came to see mo and took me away, put
ting me up at the Imperial, where he reg
istered as Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Patterson.
From then on until the 2Uh or 25th of
May wc were together every day, and
then Caesar went to Sheepshead Bay and
I went uptown to see the St. Paul Hotel,
at Sixtieth street and Columbus avenue,
to stay with my sister Julia and her hus
band. Morgan Smith. Caesar could not
get away from Mrs. Young and his part
ner Millln to come and see me during the
time from then on to June 3. but he called
me up by telephone several times and told
me he was Just getting things straight
ened out at home. Things were beginning
to get quiet once more no more fussing.
(The woman goes Into details of her
movements. June 2 to the racetrack where
Young operated and of her Inability to get
a private audience with him on account of
being watched by his relatives. Next
afternoon, they met by appointment In a
saloon. The narrative continues as fol
lows:) While alone with Mr. Young In the
saloon and In the cab, he said: "Now,
Nan, I will tell you what It was I had to
say to you this afternoon. I must go
away; I have been trying to plan and see
how I could get out of it, but there Is ab
solutely no way; the only thing for you
to do is to come on after me; we are
going on a slow steamer, and you must
leave on a fast one, because I planned
and planned and planned; besides. I told
the folks I would go on a fishing trip and
leave my wife with Harry Thatcher's
wife. He Is my chum In England. And
on this supposed Ashing trip I will meet
you, and we can be together for three or
four weeks. Now, will you do that?"
Plans for Xan to Follow Young.
I said 1 supposed I would. I did not give
him any definite answer, but I did not
want to go. Well, we talked about what
we would do when we got over there, and
how fond he was of this Mr. Thatcher,
and how they played together when they
were boys, and that he was the only one
beside myself that ever called him
"Frank." and that he always wanted me
to call him "Frank" because he was so
fond of this Mr. Thatcher. He told me
to get a steamer rug and a steamer trunk,
and be sure to have a fur coat. He also
told me to go to a hotel of the name of
Cecil, or something like that, in London,
and that I would get there about the
same time, or maybe a day later, and he
would come right to see me. He wanted
to know how much money I had left.
I told him 1 didn't know, and ho
laughed. My bank account was In the
New Amsterdam Bank, Broadway and
Thirty-ninth street. I told him I did not
imagine It was very much. He said: "I
guess you have a nest-egg some place."
He wanted to know how much I would
need and I told him how much I had. I
told hlra I had maybe $500 left. "Well."
he said, "here's two $100 bills. That will
help you out a little." I put the money In
my purse. He told me the name of the
steamer he wanted me to take I do not
remember the name, but It was on the
White Star line.
The cab drove back to the corner of
Eighth avenue and One Hundred and
Twenty-fifth street and we went Into the
same saloon. He went out to see If he
could find his brother-in-law at the bar,
and then came back, and he had a cou
ple of drinks of whisky. We left the
saloon and went outsiae to see If his
brother-in-law, Mr. Luce, was outside.
He went around the corner and came
back with Mr. Luce. Then tho three of
us walked upMo another restaurant and
went In here. We went to a table up In
the corner, and Mr. Young and ' I sat
down. Mr. Luce went to another table. I
asked Mr. Young why. and he said: "Be
cause I want to talk to you. I have not
yet finished about talking about our trip.
I would not let him know you are coming
over there for anything in. the world- I
do not want anybody to know it; I do
not want you to tell a soul."
Young Gave Her Money.
While we sat there I guess Mr. Young
had 15 or 20 drinks of straight whisky. I
drank Very little. He talked about the
way he had been spending money, and
whea be had the money out of his pocket
to pay for some ,pf the drinks he counted
off Ave $20 bills and he said: "Here, put
that with the rest of your money; pat all
that money somewhere se that Luce will
know nothing about it. Don't for jrood
nees' pake make breakand say yeii
are coming over Lfeere. Because If Mrs.'
Young ever saw ya again there would
be ireuble,"
He wou-ld Hot let me put the money ih
my purse for fear -that Lce would see
1L He made me take all my money and
put it In my stocking. Then I told him
I was hungry, and he suggested going
over to Luce's table and having some
thing to eat. He was beginning to show
tbe effects of his drinking. So the three
of ms had something to eat and Mr.
Young and I .draak some more half-and-half
It was. There was no quarreling
there, however the only thing he showed
any anger about was when he thought I
did not want to go over to Europe very
much.
When we left the hotel Mr. Young was
'very much in liquor. Mr. Luce west to
get a cab. Mr. Young said: "Now you
get In and drive up to One Hundred and
Fortieth street with us and then drive
down to the hotel." I said, "Why, I can
not do it. It Is so late now Mrs. Smith
will be worrying about me. I must get
home. It Is getting light. It Is day
break." So that made him very angry
because I would not drive up to the houee
with him. I said I wanted to drive down.
"You can either drive down with me and
then go back or else I want to go home
alone."
Young Kissed Her Good-Night.
When Mr. Luce got the cab Mr. Young
took me by the arm and walked me over
to it and I stopped. I did not want to
get in and I said so. He did not like it
He said. "Call another cab." Another cab
came and he put me on the step. When
he was drunk he had a great habit of
putting his hand up and pushing my face
He was only playing. He wasn't rough
at alL He was not angry. He did it that
night. It did not hurt me. Then. I got as
far ay the step of the cab and he pulled
me over and kissed me. The cab door
was closed and I was driven away.
I do not think I cried on my way home
that night, but I may have, though I can
not 'think of any reason except that I
was very tired and sleepy. I did "not
expect to see Mr. Young the next day or
on this side of the water for a long time.
There was no arrangement for me to
meet him next morning the day of his
death.
BRINGS MONEY TO STATE
Xew Forest Reserve Creates Great
Body of Lieu Land.
SALEM. Or., May 13. (Special.) It
seems altogether probable that by
reason of the creation of the Wallowa
Forest Reserve the State of Oregon
will acquire the right to use 40.000
acres of school land as base for the
selection of lieu land, and will be the
gainer to the extent of $200,000 there
by. Though the general lleu-land law
was repealed, it is believed that this
repeal will not affect the state's right
to use these lands in the Wallowa re
serve as base, for the reason hat the
lands arc unsurveyed. the state's title
does not attach until they are sur
veyed, and the act admitting Oregon
to the Union gives the state the right
to take other lands In the place of
school lands that have been sold or
"otherwis'e disposed of."
Unless the proclamation creating the
reserve contains some limitation
which will have a contrary effect, It Is
believed that the unsurveyed school
sections will remain the property of
the Government and the state will be
entitled to receive a similar area, in
lieu thereof. It has always been held
by the Department of the Interior that
the state's title under Its grant docs
not attach until the lands have been
surveyed. When the Cascade Reserve
was created there was no hesitation
whatever in permitting the state to
use the unsurveyed sections as base
for the selection of lieu land.
The department held for a number
of years that the surveyed sections
could not be used for the reason that
title had already vested in the state,
but this ruling was afterward reversed
In the interest of the land speculators.
At no time was the state's right to use
the unsurveyed sections questioned.
The lands In the Wallowa Reserve
are practically all unsurveyed. and
therefore none of the school sections
have been sold. The exact area of the
school lands In the reserve. Is not
known, but rough estimates have fixed
it at 40.000 acres. The state's price
now for lieu lands Is $5 an acre, so If
this land can be used to select lieu
land, the state can realize $200,000 on
the lands inside the reserve.
State Land Agent Oswald West has
written to the General Land Office,
asking for a ruling upon the state's
right to use both surveyed and unsur
veyed school sections in the reserve as
base.
NEW BILL AT STAR THEATER
Zlnn's Pony Ballet Is the Headllner
on This Week's Programme.
There will be an all-feature bill at the
Star this week, beginning with the mat
inee tomorrow afternoon. The Star man
agement has succeeded in obtaining a
number of exceptionally strong acts, and
every one Is far above the ordinary and
deserves the classification of a feature.
The one at the top of the bill is Zinn's
pony ballet, consisting of seven roguleh,
bright-eyed maidens, who know how to
sing and dance In a manner that capti
vates every audience. These girls will un
doubtedly make a big hit with local vaude
ville patrons. Next comes Otto Fiechtl'e
Tyrolean Quintet. Tho Tyroleans ping
and warble in English and German, and
this Is their first appearance on the Pacific
Coast. The act comes well recommended
from the best of Eastern houses.
Tom Mack Is a feature In himself.
Everyone has heard of Tom Mack, the
minstrel man. He is an institution, and
his jokes, stories and songs bear all the
marks of originality. To hear Mack Is
better than to listen to an entire minstrel
performance.
The. Helm children, who made such an
Impression when they played Portland
more than a year ago, are back again, and
will repeat their former triumphs. These
"kids" are recognized as the cleverest
youngsters on the vaudeville stage of
America. Creatore, not the eccentric
bandmaster, but a man with a similar
name, will be on the programme. He has
an original musical novelty act.
"In Old Ireland.. Meet Me There." Is
the name of the illustrated ballad. It wjll
be rendered by Daisy Vernon, the charm
ing little songstress, who was a prime
favorite here eevcral months ago. For the
Staroscope the management has secured
the latest sensational motion picture,
called "The Counterfeiters." This film
has never been shown In the West, and it
Is one of the greatest melodramatic pic
tures ever manufactured. This afternoon
and tonight will be the last chance to see
the big vaudeville show at the Star, head
ed by D'Urbano s Royal Italian Band.

JEFF S
Never Again Will He Face the
Limelight.
HIS FIGHTING DAYS OVER
Making His Last Appearance in Kole
of "Davy Crockett," the -Giant
Comes West to "Lead a
Private Iiifcf
CHICAGO, May 13. This was Jim
Jeffries last day as world's heavyweight
champion. At midnight the ex-boiler-maker
stepped down and out, determined
that no inducement would get him in the
ring again.
"I'm glad Its about all over," declared
Mrs. Jeffries with a note of relief in her
voice. This life never agreed with you.
Jim."
"I know that," said Jeff, "and I am
right glad that the end is in sight. No
more of the limelight for me.. It's back
to the woods for me, anywhere that I can
hunt and fish when I want to without
having an army of people on my heels
catching every word that I say and taking
snapshots of me at every turn."
"You have not enjoyed tho notoriety,
then?" Jim was asked.
"No, I have not," said Jeffries, with
some emphasis In his voice. "I was mot
cut out for that sort of thing, I guess.
It's always been grinding on me to see my
name and picture in the papers so often.
I prefer the quiet life, doing as I please,
without having people talk."
Jeffries was quiet for a few moments.
"The championship In itself "has not
brought me any happiness," he resumed,
Anally. "It brought me some money,
quite a bit of money, but that's about
all. When I was fighting my way I
thought I would be absolutely happy if I
ever reached the top. I did reach the top,
but happiness was not there. I found I
could not make the slightest remark but
somebody would accuse me of something.
I would break a glass'of wine at dinner
and the report would be printed In all
the papers the next morning that I was
following a course of wild dissipation.
That's the way it went. The public while
giving me the credit of being a real cham
pion was always ready to criticize."
This evening Jeffries made his last
appearance in the role of "Davy Crock
ett" at a local theater. Jeffries literally
is forced out of the - fighting business.
Racked with rheumatism and malarial
pains he will leave for the coast and the
mountains at Harbin Springs. Ho wilt
seek rest and health preparatory- to en
tering into a life of business. Jeffries
is well fixed in this world's goods. He
need never do anything again for a liv
ing. He is Interested in several mines
out West, and they are making him
enough money to keep him. He has left
the charge of these mines in the hands
of others in the past, but now he will
give them his personal attention. He will
go down in puglistic history as the
grandest fighter the ring has ever known.
Willing at all times to meet challengers
who had a right to challenge, he swept
through the ranks of heavy weights like
a cyclone, until there were none left to
dispute the title with him.
