launary mark leading to Mr. Sichel, the
act that filchel had aold the shirts i to
the peddler, Iwey. and that Prey bad
old them to Martin then back to. the
finding of the bloody ahirt again. It
formed a complete circle so far as It
went, the gap being between the time
that Martin bought the ahtrta and that
the blood-stained one was found by
Golta, Then a statement aaid to have
been made by Mrs. Martin was Intro
duced, to the effect that Manln bad
worn a brown tie on the day of the
killing of Wolff. It waa a brown tie
that waa rouna in wonts non
The
officers teatlfled that the, collar found
la the same alee aa Martin a. annougu
be denies this and says there la a sise
difference.
The missing point the vital defect
In the state's case thus far. Is that no
one "has been found to Identify Martin
aa being In the Wolff store at the time
or just prior to the murder. Al Field
say a be was tn the shop at 6:30 on the
night of the murder. He saw a man
walking up and down outside the shop,
on the walk, looking in the windows.
The man finally opened the door and
stood waiting In the shop, r Fields went
over to the Jail to Identify , Martin as
the tnan. but was unable to do ao. He
atatea that Martin resembles htm, but
he-cannot awear that he la the man be
aw In the shop at 6:30. It mas not
anything unusual for a customer to, be
In the ahop at that time.
Field's man waa of Martin's build,
wore a dark suit of clothes, which he
saya la very similar to that worn now
by Martin, had his coat collar turned
ud and his hands In bis pockets. Field
aid further that the man had no col
lar on, which would Weaken the assump
tion that the man waa Martin.
From the standpoint of the police the
Important phase of this is that the man
"generally resembled Martin."
"y.'''f--, 1 Had Ug-b Overcoat.
But ha had no overcoat and the po
lice are- trying to ahow that . Martin
wore a light overcoat the one discov
ered by an ambitious cop the other day
tn a vacant lot, covered with something
that looked like blood. Again the state's
chief Identification outside of the shirt
Is the collar and necktie and Field
thinks his man wore no collar and tie.
Anyway Fields will be questioned by
Mr. Stevenson this afternoon to find
out what he knows and may possibly
be called a a witness by the state.

rest. Hs Is being given soma morphine'

unable to eat anything. He has not lost
his spin's, however, and discusses bis
case with animation.
Martin Talk of Case.
"It Is true that Captain Baty tried to
force me Into confessing this crime by
withholding morphine from me," be de
clared today. "I regarded It at the time
as merely the efforts of a man who was
wrapped up In bit business to procure
what he wished. I hear that the police
have denied the charge, however, and
I think the truth -should be told. Baty
and Tiohenor did tell me that I could
not have any morphine until I confessed
the crime. They also told me that as
soon a I would tell them about It they
would let me have an I wished."
Chief Grttsmacher waa quite shocked
st the idea of withholding morphine
from Martin. He said he didn't want
the man to die and waa sure that Gap
tain Baty wouldn't do such a thing. - It
la a fact, however, that Martin was
f iven no morphine until night before
last, when Dr. Ziegler, fearing ha might
go crazy, gave him three pelleta.

troduce in congress a Joint resolution
demanding a courtmartlal for Colonel
William F. Stewart, who was exiled at
Fort Urant. a merry war is promised be
tween him and President Roosevelt.
Ravner insists that the army officer
should have a hearing before a court of
Inquiry, while the president shows no
disposition to change bis original pians.
The senator takes the stand that exile
to a remote ungarrlsoned post consti
tutes punishment; that the colonel Is
being punished without an opportunity
to defend himself.
In reply to a letter written htm by the
statesman the president says that a
final determination bad not been
reached. The president Intimated that
he would refuse the request for a court
martial or a court of inquiry, on the
grounds that it would establish a precedent.

(Special Dispatch to The Journal.
Baker City. Or. May- 8. Edward H.
Martin, charged with the murder of
Nathan Wolff, lived in Baker City for
several months last summer, and owing
to hU peculiar actions there., until the
police finally ran him out of town as a
common vag, was dubbed uie major.
Martin arrived In Baker City from
Idaho early In the summer. He and his
.ir un harimiaj"tera In 4k lOdalng-
house near the depot, and soon after
ward Martn,: -always steeped, .In, -drugs,
began his eccentric actions. .
He seldom appeared on the street
wearing a coat He always swung a
cane, and, dashing into a cigar store or
a hotel lobby, or even meeting stran
gers on the street, he would launch at
once' Into (quotations from Shakespeare
or a discourse on same subject pertain
ing to his service in the Philippines or
his escapades at West Point
The fact that Martin always squared
his shoulders, before beginning an Im
promptu speech, and always walked
with an erect bearing, gained nlm the
title of "major."

Had the circulators of another peti

with the county clerk the question
would again have been submitted to the
St Johns precincts alone. The petition
combining 80 and 91 with 89 was filed
at 12:30 one day, as shown by the rec
ords of th,e county clerk's office, and at
S:S6 o'clock the petition for 90 and 91
waa filed. The one first filed won the
day, an4 the later petition was rejected
because it conflicts with the other.
Still another petition was filed later
covering- 90 and 91. and this was also
rejected,- for the same reason. One of
the rejected petitions waa prepared by
the wets and the other by the drya.

liquor men supported the petition that
is presumed to be against their Inter

New York. May 8 The richest woman

nounced today that she would give up
her luxurious apartments in the Plaza.
It was not the cost, she said,, but
"the disgraceful notoriety" that has fol

Mrs. Green looks at It in this way:
The newspapers have devoted great
space to the fact that a sensible, strong

Joking way, it has been made to appear
that Mrs. Green has switched from the
