'Victor Danna Kills Benjamin
!. Gholson and Himself.
SHOOTS IN DRUNKEN RAGE
Toung Man of Good Family Re
j vcnges Illmself on Man Who Had
i Hi in Arrested for Drunkenness,
' Then Commits Suicide.
. SALEM, Or. Nov. 10. (Special.)
Crazed with liquor and maddened by
the disgrace of being, arrested for dis
orderly conduct, Victor E. D'Anna, chief
Of the surveying crew of thd Willam
ette Construction Company, this morn
ing In this city shot and killed Benja
min Gholson and a few hours later
ishot and killed himself. The murder
Vras entirely without . provocation.
U'he suicide was deliberate and was
committed after D'Anna had held a
conversation with his friend, Chaun
cc.y Elshop, of this city, over the tele
phone. The principles in the trag-edy
were well and favorably known here
Bnd the double crime has horrified the
community.
D'Anna was but 22 years of age,
well educated, of polished manners,
companionable-disposition and tine ap
pearance. He. had a number of inti
mate friends here, among them Chaun
tey Bishop and Oswald West. He had
l.een here less than a year, working
rn the Portland-Saiem electric line. He
had formed a large acquaintance and
was u social favorite. Gholson-was of
"ttbout the same age, and a son of Mr.
and Mrs. Edmund Gholson, of Zena.
Ile was employed in the Jones livery
stable on High street and was accus
tomed to sleep in a room adjoining the
office. IJ, was there that he was mar
tiered. Last night D'Anna began drinking
heavily and about 4 o'clock this morn
ing was intoxicated to the point of
recklessness, lie threw away his hat
Riid coat in the street and going to
f.holson's room got Into bed. Ghol
hoii could not get him to vacate and
JinaJly telephoned to Officer Longcor,
who took D'Anna to jail, though not
without considerable ellort. D'Anna
fivore then that he would kill both
Gholson and Longcor at the first oppor
tunity. At the City Jail D'Anna aflked per
mission to talk to City Recorder W. A.
Moores, over the telephone, and this
request was granted. He explained the
situation, after which Moores Instruct
ed Lohgcor to allow D'Anna to go on
Ii its own recognizance until morning.
J,ongoor informed the Recorder that
the man was making threats and that
1t would be best not to release him.
Moores told the officer that he knew
;tlie man and to let him go. D'Anna was
then set' at liberty. This was about
halt past 5 o'clock.
Goes in Search of Victim.-
D'Anna went at once to his room in
the Westacott residence, on Court
street, wrote a brief farewell note to
his father arftl to Miss Lena Hutton,
of Portland, took his revolver from
his trunk and went in search of Ghol
Kon. On the way to the stable he
stopped at the Salem Hotel and tele
phoned Recorder Moores that lie did
not want to appear in court; that he
did not want to get his name in the
papers. Moores assured him that he
would not be published.
- D'Anna then went to the stable,
found Gholson and fired a bullet into
the latter's breast, the missile piercing
the left lung. . Gholson ran across the
street to Walter Low's livery barn,
whore he fell unconscious and soon
died.
, D'Anna ran to Trade street, then out
of town along the Southern Pacific
track. He went to the Reform School
and from there to the Asylum farm, a
distance of about seven miles. At 10:30
o'clock he called at the office of the
asylum farm and got permission to use
the telephone. . Calling up Chauncey
Bishop, he inquired whether Gholson
was dead and being' answered in the
affirmative said that he intended to kill
himself immediately. Bishop urged him
not to do anything rash and secured a
promise to wait ' till Bishop could go
out and talk with him.
Bishop and Oswald West left at once'
fo'v the farm, but , a few minutes "after
telephoning". D'Anna went out behind
a wood pile and shot himself through
the head, killing himself instantly.
Ills body was brought to the city and
laid' beside that of Gholson in the
morgue. '
That D'Anna keenly felt the d's
nrrace of being arrested for drunken
ness was evident from the notes ae
left. Both were scrawled on large
she.its of paper. One was atidi evuutl to
"Senor D'Anna, Oklahoma, Okl." nd
read. "Good bye. Papa, I can't stand
this disgrace. Your son, Voctor.' ' The'
other ' was addressed to "MifS .lake
Hutton, Portland," and read: "Dearest
Jake: Keep this as the last of my only.
Think of me no more. .Your and o:?ly
3 ur. Victor."
Notes Indicate Condition.
"Jake" is a nickname for Miss Lena
Hutton, a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. O.
D. Hutton, of Portland. The incoher
ency of the note to Miss Hutton indi
cates the . excitement under which
D'Anna ,was laboring.
D'Anna was a native of Virginia and
came from a family of high social
standing. lie lived for a number of
years in Kentucky, and was a gradu
ate of Kentucky State College. A day
or two ago, in conversation with
friends hire, he expressed his disap
proval of. the manner in which Ken
tuckians ersort to the use of nreurms
to avenge slight or Imaginary injuries
to their honor. When sober D'Anna was
quiet and peaceable, but when under
the influence of liquor lie expected
everyone to yield to his slightest wni-n.
Gholson was an industrious, reliable
young man. His nrth?r i'.t.s been ill
lor some time and up6h 'learning today
of t'.c death of her son became hys
terical and probably will not jurvive
tne shock. ' ....

trol for not making more purchases of
jute and stating that "farmers of East
ern Washington would lose from $500,000
to $750,000 this season," because of the
shutdown of the jute mill, would " be
amusing but for its attack upon the states
orriclals. The two years output of the
jute mill for the period ending September
SO, 1906, was 2.532.2S5 bags. This was for
the period before short time began at the
mill. Tho state price for bags this year
is 6V4 cents.
Assuming the market price, in the
event farmers buy on the open market
from dealers, to be 11 cents, the dif
ference would be 5 cents a sack. The
entire two years' output, at the difference
of 5 cents, would foot up but $126,614.25.

HELPING THE FARMER.
Taps Trolley Roads and Electric Mo
. tors Doing His AYork.
Chicago . Post.
On the thoroughly up-to-date farm the
electrio motor now does most of the
heavy work. ' i
The advance in farming methods Is
shown In numerous .instances In the vicin
ity of Chicago. - Along the line of the Au
rora, Elgin and Chicago Electric Railway
many farmers have taken advantage of
the opportunity to purchase power. No
longer do they flirt!' with their laborious
bucksaw at dawn, nor do they grind away
by main strength at the feed milL Tho
coming of electricity. has worked marvels
in their methods.
It is true, however, that farming by
electricity is in its Infancy, yet the suc
cess of such enterprise, where it has been
undertaken, has been so great that the
sale of electrical power by interurban rail
roads promises to develop into one of the
most important branches ot tne business,
In the vicinity of Elgin, Aurora, Batavia
and at other points along the Aurora-line
the use of electricity by farmers is com
mon. In other parts of the United States,
as well, the electrical method is finding
favor.
Farming loses much of its slavery when
electricity is applied to it. Little Johnny
Farmer, when his mother .tells him to put
in the time before breakfast sawing wood,
goes gleefully forth to the woodshed, pulls
a lever, saws half a cord, and then splits
the chunks with a rapid-fire device that
puts to shame the old-fashioned method of
our grandfathers.
When, it comes to shredding and crush
ing corn, the electrical farmer can ac
complish as much in a day as he could
In a month by hand'. ' The ' ume-saving
value of the motor is almost.beyond esti
mation. The district around Elgin has many
large dairy farms, and to these the use
of the electrical power furnished by tne
railroad has come to be a necessity.
Enormous quantities of feed are ground
by electricity. Within five or six miles
of Elgin about 15 big farms have installed
motors, most of them being of 15 horse
power. Usually the motor is placed in a
detached building, so that the lire risk
will not be increased. The average cost
of installing one of these motors is placed
at Wuo, including the expense of running
the wires from the railroad track, erecting
the building, and . making all necessary
connections. The belt is run in an in
closed chute from the power-house to the
barn. .
In one Instance where a farmer used his
motor to. grind feed for 50 cows and for
sawing wood, the cost of the power aver
aged S2 a month.
The motors require Utile care. The
power Is taken directly from the third
rail of trolley wires, and carried on poles
to the famer's power-house. A meter Is in
stalled, and the measured service is used.
The railroad company does not do the
work of installing the motor, but simply
furnishes the power at about 4 cents per
kilowatt. Electrical contractors put in
"tne motors, and the field in this direction
promises to enlist the services of many
engineers.
It Is easy to imagine how the use of
electricity on farms may develop in the
years to come. The loading and unloading
of hay nd grain, the pumping of water,
the threshing and many other phases of
farm work may be done with the aid of
a motor. .
Some farmers use gasoline motors, but
the superiority of electricity over gasoline
is said to be so great that there is scarcely
any comparison. Gasoline motors often
get out of order. They require time in
starting and have to be closely watched.
The electric motor simply requires tb
be oiled and to have the brushes renewed
a couple of times a year. It is always
ready for instant use, all day and most of
the night. In case of fire It can be used
as a fire engine.
Power can be transmitted readily for a
considerable distance on either side of the
railroad's right of way, although the far
ther off a farmer is the more his elec
tricity will cost him.
