In refusing to is sue- a' requisition upon application of Deputy Sheriff Archie Leonard of Mult nomah county for 1 the return to that county for' prosecution for forgery ' of Ed Murphy, held at Great Falls, Mont, Governor West said this morning that It would, be the practice of the chief executive hereafter not to Issue a requi sition for the return of any criminal to this ' state for prosecution unless the crime Is of, sufficient magnitude or of such serious consequence to the public welfare of i the commonwealth as ' to merit the expenditure of funds to return the criminal to Oregon.' This Is a de parture front the usual practice, for It has been the custom tn this state to is sue a, requisition tor the return of crim inals who have committed only slight crimes. ' ';; v.-' ,:' Governor West said he had Informa tion that Murphy had a wife and child In Portland, and he was more in favor of 'having the man brought- back to Portland where he could be given a chance to earn and to return the money he secured by forgery tharrto bring him back and prosecute him at considerable expense to the county and state. "I heartily indorse the practice of Judge Henry McGinn of the state cir cuit court for Multnomah county in pa roling those Indicted for light offenses, or .who have - committed an offense fpr the first time. I think Judge McGinn Is right, and1 1 would like to see other Judges of the circuit courts adopt bis system.' Had-1 Issued a requisition for the return of Murphy Judge McGinn would probably have pa rolled him and the expense of returning him would be for nothing. Judge McGinn, I believe, would do right in paroling him." EYES (SUREI VITHOUT THE IiniFE OritefHl Pit Tell uf Almost Mlraculuu Cnr? of ' Catamct, Granulated Llda, - Wild Hnlra.

After an argument lasting two days In the case of Dr. J; J. Rosenberg, on trial in the circuit court ' for causing the death of Vera Hall, Judge Morrow overruled all objections shortly before noon today, and ordered the attorneys to proceed; With the case, The Judge held that the state has a right to go to trial with an Indictment charging first degree ; murder, .but submit - testimony warranting a lesser penalty.' 1 - It was on this point that the two day legal: battle took. . place. Attorney George Stapleton, Ralph Moody and J. E. Hedges represented the physician, while Deputy District Attorneys Fits gerald and Collier appeared for the state; The physician's attorneys con tended that the state must elect one theory and stick to it. It was further contended that a : first degree verdict must .be returned or an acquittal, and that a lesser finding could not be asked. While Judge Morrow indlcatedis opin ion that there was merit in this theory. na said be. was bund by decisions of the supreme court-of Oregon., which are to the effect that the state can return an Indictment charging the hlrhest crime, present a case upon Its merits and then ask for. the penalty for a les ser crime. Sesorlbss Daughter's &ast Day. James Halt, father of Vera Hall, was the first witness. He said his daughter was unusually happy the afternoon of July. 24, 1910, when she left her homo at Oregon City to come to Portland. He further said he did not see her until she was brought - home a corpse. He knew Elmer . Eriekson had been her sweetheart for about three years. Albert -Eriekson,. brother of Elmer. said tie became acquainted with Dr. Rosenberg on a South Portland street car. Eriekson was. conductor, and the physician was a patron. Eriekson said 1: "Count" and "Countess d'Aulby," in the prlaoners' dock In the, Correc tion court at Tours, France. -'The "Count'' was on trial charged by the Dilchess of Cholseul-Praalin, formerly Mrs.' Charles Hamll- ' ton Paine of Boston, with a swindle of $200,000 through the sale of spurious paintings. ' The ''Count," who is the son of an English .tailor by the name of Dalby," ascribed the swindling charge to his accuser's Jealousy and Introduced several letters alleged to have . been addressed to himself by the .'duchess. These letters Which ''were concluded in. the most endearing terms created such excite ment nt Tours that public sentiment heretofore in favor of the duchess, swung completely, about and 'warmly championed the d'Aulbyg. The public prosecutor in summing up, said that he con sidered the "Count" a high flying swindler; and adventurer, who lived luxuriously by throwing dust Into the eyes of his victims." d'Anlby was found guilty and sentenced to one month's imprisonment. The charge against the "Countess" had been dropped. to Eriekson on the fatal Sunday after noon. : ( The testimony Of Elmer Eriekson was somewhat of a surprise to these follow ing the case, and was different from what ha has told. Thla mornlns: he he. told his brother to take Vera Hall said the reason the girl was taken to the physician was on account of her nose bleeding, It was to stop this flow that the trip was made. He waited in an outer office, while the girl went Into the private office, he said. Soon the physician asked him to step Inside and tliey . began efforts at resuscitation.
