fHlS SOMDAY ORJEGOXIAX, PORTLAND, AIAY 8, 1910- SEATTLE TAKES UP G1VIG CLUB WORK Sea Wall Scheme and Central Park Will Be Opposed, It Is Believed. MAME SYSTEM IS FAULTY carelessness in money matters Is of in terest. Trincess Louise literally- does not know what : money . means. - Some -time ago. during a stay she made in Paris, a dress which she had ordered was brought to her hotel. The girl who brought It was pretty and charmingly dressed, with that simplicity and grace peculiar to the little work girl of the Rue de la Pabc. Princess Louise admired the child and told her so, and admired, too, a little silver medal which the girl wore around her neck. "Perhaps your hishness will accept It," said the work' girl." "It is a j medal of the Virgin of Prague." "That is t too sweet of you," said Princess Louise, j "and you must let me give you something ; in exchange to put around your neck." ? She gave a necklace - of- pearls, with j which the girl went off in high glee. She i hough they were imitation, and. even so, they were fine ones. But one day. PIOXEER OF 1852 AND VETERAN' OF CAVCiSE INDIAN WAR. DIES IX HILLSBORO. I'ostmaster Threatens to Complain to iJepartmeiit Unless Street Xemin; Is Improved Coun cil Talks of Sane Fourth. SEATTLE. Wash., iiay 7. iSpeciiti.) The - members of tf-.e Seattle Civic l'lans Commission, authorized by a chaiter amendment adopted at the last municipal election, have been appointed by Mayor Gill and have JGO.OOu at their onimaml, but they will not get ac tively to work until lef;al proceedings against them have been settled. Their authority to act has been confirmed by Mie Superior Court, and the question may be appealed. It is believed that the commission will not act upon the central park scheme and that it will oppose a new seawall proposed to be built at an ex pense of $17,000,000. The questions of a civic center near Third and avenue and James street and the development C parks and boulevards have been a fruitful source of contention since the -South End lias felt that the North End has been favored. It is expected that The commission will be able to recon cile ti:ef;e differences. The membership represents all classes. The list follows: R. H. Thom son, chairman. Board of Public Works: M. J.

With the llnal report of enumerators, !t Is generally understood that the. cen sus or Seattle will not exceed 220.000. One of the disputed districts was in Ballard, where the work was carefully rechecked. During the closing days of the enumera tion, the civic census bureau was ex tremely busy, but R. W. Hill, Supervisor, has contended that his men have made few mistakes, and that the slips gath ered by the civic bureau were mainly duplications. Although Seattle's system of Btreet names ttas been revised a number of times. It is far from satisfactory. So many mistakes are made, and there Is so much confusion, that George F. Russell, postmaster, has threatened to report the matter to the Postmaster- ;eneral. If this is done, the Government may force the Issue on the basis of free delivery. W. V. Paddock, chief clerk of the City Engineer, and C. I. Lynch, chief of the delivery system at the postoftice, are evolving a plan. They would make First avenue the north and south dividing line and Vesler Way the east and west divid ing line, with all streets to be named Rnd all avenues numbered. Sane Fourth Is Asked For. If an ordinance prepared by Council man Goddard Is passed, Seattle will go on record for a safe and sane Fourth of July. The bill, which will be consid ered during the week, will forbid the use of giant firecrackers, canes and other dangerous noise-makers, but will afford Young America an opportunity to celebrate with due hilarity. A grand jury called by Federal Judge C. II. Hanford has objected to its quarters as tinsanitary, and as a re sult the inquisitorial body may be con vened in Tacoma instead of this city. Repairs to the Jury room, as stated in the report to the court, will cost about i I 2,000. Preliminary work on the new Lake I'nion belt line has begun with the raz ing of buildings along the right-of-way and the depot site on Terry avenue. It is expected that the improvements will be completed within a year. Dos Owners Are til Terror. Dog-poisoners, who continue to deci mate canines, still go undetected, and ow-ners of valuable animals are in a state of panic. Most extraordinary precautions have been taken to protect 1 he dogs at the show now open in Mammoth Kink. The Queen Anne dis trict has lost 60 dogs, Yesler Way 35, and Rainier Beach 50, while from other parts of the city come reports of fatal ities. Tom Lloyd, of Fairbanks, will bo called upon to defend his claim to hav ing ascended Mount McKinley. Herschel l". Parker, of the expedition which has just sailed for Alaska, discounts the report as a most improbable yarn. "From what I have read," he says, "it's just as probable that Lloyd reached th summit as that Cook reached the Pole." lIvles'Pokecl in Story. Belmore Brown says: "I have Just received word that Lloyd was backed by a Fairbanks saloonkeeper and gam bler named Heebie, who sent them out with the understanding that they were to bring hack the peak or the story. Why, everyone knows that Lloyd has been dead broke for a year, waiting for someone to grubstake hiru. All those fellows have dog teams, so the trip probably stood them only a couple of hundred dollars." In an effort to prove the story false, t'rofesisor 1'nrker mpntlnnAil tia nK.,-.- lute impossibility of carrying a 16-foot i pole, four Inches In diameter, to the 1 .summit of Mount McKinley. j "Of course, there is the chance that ! Lloyd might have been misquoted on i this point," continued Professor Park- 1 er, "but there are a dozen other things !n I rhe story which don't hold water. For i Instance, it s absurd to say the moun- j tnln can be climbed without ropes and be axes, or that it took two weeks to go fi-om one peak to the other. I could add a dozen other facts. Suffice It to say that we feel confident that if we rea h I the summit we shall be the first, and will be reeognired as the first by the ' world. These stories of Cook and Lloyd i IU only serve to add glamour to the fe:it."' T...... ......... .......... ... . t IT T iiNr- :: 4 'iff 3 t ; I, w r .

Cor roborative testimony seklng -to - show the presence of Gohl and Klingenberg at Indian Crek the night the .'murder of John Hadberg is alleged to. have oc curred there, "consumed the afternoon session- ot the Gohl murder trial here today. Captain H. Smith, of the schooner A. J. West, " aboard which Klingenberg made his last trip, swore to Klingen berg's' absence from the' ' vessel the night of December 21,. when the killing is said to have ben" done. ! He told'of meeting Gohl and Klingen berg the next morning and testified that Gohl. -had said that Klingenberg had ben down the bay. lookins for a stolen compass." The captain Bai dthat Gohl made an urgent plea that Klingenberg be taken back, adding that if there had ben any loss" by the.' sailor's' absence that he Would'' reimburse" the captain. '- Frank Farron- testified that on the night of December 2t he gave Gohl a can of oil to be used In the launch Patrol. George Martello, then Deputy Game Warden, said on the stand that he went down the bay himself Decem ber 21 to make an arrest and that he met Gohl, who said he also was going down that night. Patrolman Joe Searles, of Aberdeen, testified to see ing Gohl and Klingenberg in a. saloon in South- -Aberdeen --the morning of December ' 22, arid that ' the two men had taken the" II ""o'clock" streetcar to town. This latter statement was sup ported by Motorman William Auer and Conductor Johnny Neilson, of the 11 o'clock car on that day, who testified to bringing the men to Aberdeen. Waldemar-Neilson. a fisherman, tes tified that- two days after the alleged murder Gohl came down to his shack and engaged him to take him down to Hadberg's cabin, on ' Indian Creek. Neilson said on the stand that Gohl proceeded to take all of Hadberg's possessions from the shack, but after their getting into the sloop head winds prevented the return to Aber deen, anl they were forced to leave the boat at Robinson Creek. The next morning, George McDonald and Jim Marshall, living at Robinson Creek, took the clothes and placed them in their, shack, fearing that the articles would be stolen if left in the open boat. Gohl, on coming down a day or so later, displayed great . anger at finding what they had done but cooled down when they explained their motive. Mc Donald and Marshall corroborated this statement. "-'.-. ;. .' -. Other witnesses were called to show that Gohl had told .them that Hadberg and Hoffman had 'both, gone to Alaska, where he had secured jobs for them with a lighthouse contractor. .'.- Paddy McHugh, a saJoonman of Aber deen, testified that the defendant told him on December, 1909,. that he was go ing down the bay to Indian Creek to kill Hadberg and John '.. Hoffman. Mc Hugh also testified that on December 22, Gohl called him aside and said: "Well, we landed those fellows last night. Hoff man was pretty tough. John Kllngberg was with me." The defense asked the witness whether Gohl ever left money for safekeeping in his safe and the witness said that sev eral times he left from $200 to $300 with him overnight. The defense - . asked whether Gohl had' deposited",$1900 with him prior to his. arrest and that on de mand he had refused 'to pay the money. Tha witness denied this. The defense went into detail in croBs examlnation concerning the finding of the body of J. !B.' Meers, a former tim ber cruiser, taken from Wishkah River near McHugh's saloon. . Meers disap peared in February and the body was found in; May. He had $1700 -when last seen alive. Oswald Betl testified to hearing shots fired - from a gasoline launch which he recognized -by .the exhaust as the launch Patrol, tlie property of Gohl.

Smith, manter of the Resolute, from which schooner Gohl ;is "said to have stolen a compsss. The Hesolute's master has been called as a witness for the' defense and the two brothers are on ' opposing sides, although Captain T.
