REASON FOR LAWES
SHOOTING ADVANCED
BY JOHN S. BORLAND
NEW YORK, Sept. 24. The theory that Mrs. Grace
Lawes, losing the friendship and financial assistance of Miss
Mildren Hanan, was driven to a frenzy which resulted in her
shooting the shoe man's daughter and then committing sui
cide was advanced today by John S. Borland, a central figure
in yesterday's tragedy.
Borland Dartmouth graduate, importer and friend of
both Miss Hanan and Mrs. Lawes advanced his theory only
after he had been pressed to do so by Assistant District At
torney Wilson. , ,

LOSES
HIS DAK SUIT
Jury Deliberates only Half
Hour Before Announc
ing Its Verdict
A verdict in favor of the defend
ant, denying the plea of Dave
Swanson for $5000 damages, was
returned early yesterday by a jury
of the circuit court after .deliber
ating for a half hour. The suit
wag brought against the defend
ant, S. W. Mayger, for alleged ma
licious prosecution rising out' of
the arrest of the plaintiff on Jan
uary 1 of this year on a warrant
sworn out by Mayger charging
the theft of two cases of eggs.
Following his arrest Swanson
was forced to spend the night in
tho county Jail and was released
the following day on the state
ment of Miss Adna Reed, a clerk
of a Portland commission house,
where the stolen goods were sold,
that Swanson was not the man
who had sold the eggs. It later
developed that Swanson was
found not guilty and Alvin Pulley
was convicted of the offense.
Swanson claimed that' because
of the publicity given the matter
Due to the fact that the law
cases where girls
age oris are involved
f at least six of the jury must be
women, tne cases or me staie ot
Oregon against Richard Burton,
and also against Ralph Collins,
have been postponed until the
January term of court.
In the case against Burton, the
girl involved is 15 years old, and
according to law, she must b the
complaining witness. Also ac
cording to law passed by the 1921
legislature, six of the jury, must
be women.
No Women Drawn
But since there are no women
among the jurymen drawn for
this term of court, and as the law
provides no means of getting them
on juries unless drawn, John H.
Carson, district attorney, has pe
titioned the court for a postpone
ment of the cases until women
are on the jury panel.
In the case of Ralph Collins,
the girl involved is 16 years old,
and the law requires that six wo
men must serve on the jury when
' his case is called. Here again, the
case was of necessity postponed
as no women were drawn on juries
for this term of court.
' But they will be drawn for the
term of court to be held next Jan
uary, and then the two cases may
be legally called for trial. In the
meantime, the bail of each man
has been reduced to 500, but it is
thought they will not be able to
secure bail.
Women May Decline.
For the benefit or women who
fear they may be obliged to serve
as jurors for these two cases, as
well as others, it may be said that
when a woman is summoned to
serve on a jury, all that-she need

lrice Boosting Discouraged.
Efforts have been made to dis
courage the practice of raising
prices for restaurant me3ls, rooms
and commodities during fair week.
Several days ago members ot the
Commercial club voted against ex-
lorbitants price schedules that have
injured this city in the past.
The weather man has predicted
a small amount of rain and mild
home. This wouid bring the total
for the two days of registering,
up to a total of 750 rooms. But
in many homes are double beds,
bringing accommodations now of
fered up to a total of about 1000.
It is thought that with the reg
istration coming in Sunday and
even as late as Monday, rooms will
be listed at the Marion hotel In
sufficient number to accommodate
fully 1500 visitors.
As with the first day's listing,
prices vary from $1.50 to $2.59 a
flurries for the first part of the' room, with no room listed in ex
week followed by good weather, cess of $2.50.
for the last four days 6t fair time. ! With visitors beginning to ar
rive Sunday, assignments of
rooms will begin today and will
continue as fast as visitors arrive.

Arguments on Demurrer
Are Long Drawn-0u
CHICAGO, Sept. 24. Argu
ments on the demuirer of the
Chicago Tribune to the $10,000,
000 libel suit filed against it by
the city of Chicago, were not com
pleted today. At the outset of
today's hearing Chester E. Cleve
land, special counsel for the city,
addressed himself to a question
asked by Judpe Fisher yesterday,
as to whether a municipal cor
poration was to be treated as a
private corporation or a govern
mental body in cases where its
general administration was af
ter ted and some of its property
rights only incidentally.
Mr. Cleveland said that the
answer to this query would come
from consideration of the nature
of the action for libel as it was
capable of enforcement by cor
porations. He argued that inas
much as a corporation has no rep
utation to sustain it could be af
fected by libel only in respect to
Its' property.
"Is is impossible for a city to
be bankrupt in its governmental
capacity," said Mr. Cleveland.
"Therefore, to charge, as was
done by the Tribune, that the city

NEW YORK. Sept. 24. A new

Brighton beach. He finished seven
yards in front of Hal T. Krilegar
of Honolulu. The time was four
fifths of a second faster than the
record made by Perry McGillivary
of Chicaeo In 1916 and only one
second slower than the world's

constantly and Salem is the only
place where I have encountered
what they call a 'capacity rate;'!
that is a room may have a cer
tain capacity under crowded con
ditions. A charge is based on a
certain price per person of esti
mated capacity, say ! 11.50 per
i person, and if the hotel manager
estimates that his room could
accommodate three persons then
a charge of $4.50 would be made
regardless of one, two or three
persons occupied the same room.
"It is not always desirable for
a traveler to occupy a bed with a
stranger or pay for the capacity
of the room.
"Three weeks apo I visited
Spokane during the Interstate
fair. I stopped at the Spokane
hotel and paid $1.50 a night for
a first class outside room. Two
weeks ago I visited Tillamook.
During the fair, the little city was
crowded yet I was only asked to
pay the regular rate for a single
person.
"Salem has no life lease on the
Oregon state fair. There are now.
j erful agencies at work to take the
lair irom Saiem. The chief argu
ment In favor of removing it has
been the inability ot Sajem to ac
commodate the crowds at reason
able prices. Excellent service can
be given as Is Riven by Yakima

not care- to co-operate in giving
