FAMILY FOOLED
ICiSTORY
Patureaux Got Money From
Mother-in-Law on Pre
tense of Attending.
Using the T. M. C. A. as a cloak for
misdeeds is a novelty In the way of
domestic troubles, and Victor Patureaux
was so successful that he nbt only paci
fied his wife, but procured money from
his mother-in-law under the pretense
that he warned to pay tuition at tne
y. m. c. a. ragm scnoois, and instead
spent the money for liquor, according
to testimony given before Judge Frazer
in the circuit court tnis morning.
Patureaux was formerly a fireman,
but shortly before his marriage to Mar
garet Mcuonaia. wno was not quite 17
years old, he quit the fire department.
Afterward e became a detective, and
then secured money from his wife's
mother, telling her hs -intended to tajce
a course ai ino z. xi. j. a. mgnt achol.
Mrs. McDonald testified that ahe gave
-her daughters husband to succeed. But
maieaa m m buiiuui, ene saia,
Patureaux spent the money for liquor.
Having started to Y. M. C A. school,
as the wife and mother-in-law believed,
patureaux took advantage of tho suppo
sition to stay away from home every
night, telling his wife he had been to
school. ' The deception was not discov
ered until one night he failed to reach
horns until I a. m. and was intoxicated.
On that occasion he told his wife the
boys had taken him out and would not
allow him to go home.
Little Mrs. Patureaux. who is now
only 18 years old, was granted a di

tion in iDruary, jsos. rnev were mar

ness was concerned when compared with
Davis, who could stand and watch a
train pull out of Gem with hundreds
of masked men aboard, all armed, and
not display any concern.
He declared there was absolutely a
conspiracy to kill 8teunenberg and cited
the movements of Orchard. Haywood,
Slmpklns. Mover and Pettlbone from
August 1 until the time of the murder
as proof that all Vere concerned in it.
Slmpklns and Orchard were In Caldwell,
under assumed names: Haywood was
writing a letter the same day to Mrs.
Orchard, telling a lie that Orchard was
In Alaska; Pettlbone was sending them
money he had procured, from Moyer,
which all augured, he declared, the guilt
of the accused. Slmpklns leaving there
to talk with Easterly at Silver City, he
said, also Indicated the actual knowl
edge of every one that the murder was
planned.
Along just tnis line ijoran rum up
the strongest kind of a case. That it
is having effect on the Jury seesis
certain, as 8ebern. Robertson and
Mease Carr. who have heretofore ap
parently been bored, followed his every
word with unabated interest today.
Will Conclnde Tonight.
Borah w.u conclude his argument to
night. Judge Wood will call the Jury
into court at 9 o'clock Saturday morn
ing. The court's instructions will be
extremely comprehensive and will take
nearly two hours to deliver. Judge
Wood will define with the greatest care
the law bearing on conspiracy and is
expected to rule out of the case a great
deal of evidence which up to now has
been considered competent.
With the case but 24 hours away
from submission to the Jury, interes
Is increasing to fever heat. More than
1.000 people were turned away from the
courthouse today, there being no ac
commodations for them. Speculation on
tne prooama verdict is vain. . it is gen
erally agreed that there is not likely
to be an acquittal. There is a belief
also that If conviction results, it will
not be of murder in the first degree
Under the law of Idaho the conviction
may be first degree murder, punishable
by death; second degree, punishable by
from 20 years to life imprisonment, and
manslaughter, punishable by from 1 to
10 yearsr Imprisonment. It would, how
ever, be folly to attempt to predict any-
tning about this verdict The mass of
conflicting evidence has confused every
one in the courtroom, and the Jury Is
no exception, so it seems likely the
weight of the pleas of Darrow and
Borah may prove deciding .factors in
the Jurymen's minds, and as Borah has
tne .last word he has a decided advan
tage.
Defends Orchard's Story.
A crowd of 8.000 people besieged the
courthouse this morning to hear the
final summing up of Senator Borah for
the prosecution. By order or the Judge.
only those for whom seats could be
found were permitted to enter. Borah
will finish tonight. His summing ud
was a masterly presentation of the case
of the state. He -is not evading any
cnarges or tne. defense arainst or
chard, but is admitting everything and
then claiming that no matter what Or

Miss Helen Bibbard. who made the trip

Helena, Mont, July 26. With the ex
ception of one county, the state board
of equalisation has received returns
from 26 assessors of the state and a
net gain of 117,151,130 over last year
is shown. The total valuation of as
sessable property of the state, with the
exception of Chouteau county and rail
road property, is $203,7,58,81 9y. Only
four counties show decreases and these
are slight Silver Bow county has the
largest gain, neariy--$6,000,000.
The board will assess railroad prop

valuations will be raised slightly.
BOSTON PLANS FOR
ITS OLD HOME WEEK
Boston, July 16. Boston's old home
week celebration, which is to surpass
anything of the kind ever planned by an
American community, is but two days
away. "Already the advance guard of
visitors Is putting in an annearance ana
it is expected the first of the week
will find the city entertaining the larg
est crowd in its history. The program
will be ushered In Sunday with appro-
firiate religious and patriotic exercises
n many parts of the city. Handsome
welcome arches have been erected in
Federal, Summer and other prominent
streets in the downtown district, public
buildings and business houses are deco
rating, with flags, bunting and electric
lights and in numerous otner ways the
city is rapidly donning gala attire In
honor of the occasion.
Estimates made by officials of the
San - Francisco Portland Steamship
company place the value of the cargo
lost In the Columbia collision at ap
proximately 1260,000. They say the
steamship was worth about an equal
amount so the total property loss, not
Including the damages to the San Pedro
and the individual losses or me pi
sengers. will aggregate fully half
million dollars.
The cargo consisted principally or
gunnies, sugar, general merchandise,
rlothlna- farm nroducta and consider
able machinery and hardware. A couple
of automobiles are said to nave oeen
aboard, the value of them alone run
ninr aulte high.
The cargo as well as the vessel was
insured and the shippers will be reim
bursed as soon as an adjustment can
be made. Even at the best, however,
this will take some time.
No definite arrangements have been
made yet for another steamer on the
route, but endeavor Is being made to
secure one as soon as possible, although
there is very little hope of getting a
passenger steamer at this time. The
steamer Lawton. purchased some time
ago by the Harriman system, will not
be ready for service for some weeks yet
and it is feared that in the meantime
traffic will become congested because
of the impaired service. There may be
a possibility of securing a couple of
steam schooners to handle freight tern
porarily now that the demand for lum
ber droghers has fallen off to almost
nothing and they might relieve the sit
uation lor tne lime Deing.
Claims by nassengers for personal in

of the wreck will have to be sought
through the courts, so It is understood,
and the outcome of whatever suits may

it had been planned for many months
to run the automobile race for the Yan

The message was sent after a confer,

While in an altercation with John

This fear on the part of the commis

summoned by the officials of the rail

conveyed to her home in a carriage.
where the wounds in her face were
dressed.
Tbe accident was due to failure on
the part of Conductor Kellar of tha
Estacada car to hold the. switch lever
until the rear trucks on the Eatacada
trailer had taken the curve.
South-bound O. W. P. cars are thrown
