NAVIGATION HAS LONG STORY ON WILLAMETTE i Continued from pJ D day to attend the hearing. Xi Years in Service Aud Captain Frank J. Smith is here. He started his service on the Willamette river boats 55 MIL BROKERS SUSPEND BUSINESS Officials' Testimony Heard in PORTLAND, Jan. 31 (AP Testimony of J. H. Kelly, cashier of the Forest county National bank of Tlonesta, Penna., and O. L. Price, president of the Northwest ern National bank, and chairman of its board of directors, for many years, was heard today in the trial of Emery Olmstead. former presi dent of the bank, and J. E. Wheel er, former president of the Mc Covmick Lumber company. Olm stead and Wheeler are being tried in federal court on indictments charging them with conspiracy and violation of the national banking at t. and misapplication of approx imately $800,000 of the funds of tUe Northwestern National. The conspiracy, as alleged by the government. Is said to have betfn carried out through the "kit ing" and manipulation of checks. Price's testimony today indicat ed that the discovery of the "float" as the credit built up by the Mc Cormick Lumber company In the Northwestern through the checks, ha been termed, came in 1927. Ilia Interest in the case was "alm nlv that all of the facts be known" he said when asked by defense counsel why he did not instigate the criminal prosecution of the de fendants. Three letters featured the tee tlmony of Kelly, and were re garded by the government as strong links In Its case. The let ters tended to,show, prosecutors pointed out, that Wheeler, In the name of the McCormtck Lumber company, drew frequently upon the Forest county bank when he did not hay deposit to cover the checks. The Forest county bank, accord ing to Kelly, accented trade or log creen Monte wins the championship. Shortly after his successful fight he lunches with a young aspirant for the crown and meets hla sister who asks him to persuade her brother to quit boxing. An unscrupulous manager gets rid of Monte's opponent on the eve of a championship bout and sub stitutes the brother. Monte makes him promise to quit if he knocks him out in one round. Monte does, but the young fellow's mama ger hits him a blow when they are alone in his dressing room that causes heart failure. Monte, blamed for the death, loses his nerve. He tries to square himself with the girl, but finds the mama gor making loe to her. and at tacking him, U worsted. This de rides the manager to enter the ring against Monte himself.

Texas Kid aad Abdul, the Turk, are In the CMt. years ago. and since that time he has served nearly all the boats that have navigated the Willam ette river, in some capacity from Harrlsburg to Portland. The first boat on which he served was the Governor drover, on which he began his service March 18. 1873. L. F. G rover was then governor of Oregon. Mr. Smiths first duties were important, and if he did uot per form them the crew got no din ner, for among other things he peeled the potatoes for the boat's cook. This was the trial trip of the Governor Grover. from Har risburg to points down the river. Some Reminiscences Captain Smith had some inter esting reminiscences to relate. In his talk with a Statesman reporter last night. He said, among other things: "The Willamette river from Sa lem to its confluence with the Co lumbia and down Jhat stream to the sea has been utilized tor the movement of produce from this rich region for a period of 116 years. "This artery of traffic that built up the fertile valley and the many cities on its banks came Into prominence soon after the found ing of Astoria March 24. 1811. by John Jacob Astor. "On October 23, 1812, the Pa cific Fur company sent two of their clerks, Messrs Halsey and Wallace, into the Willamette val ley In search of furs and pro visions. They located their sta tion ou what is known Wallace! prairie, near the B. Del Cours do nation land claim within sight of the dome of the present state cap itol. "The first shipment on record from this point was the winter kill of that station, and consisted of 17 packs of furs and 32 bales of veulson. The Second Shipment "The second shipment of record was also from the limits of Marion county. The second post built by the Pacific Fur company was at Chewewe in January. 1813, and like the former sent out fur and venison with the addition of veg etables grown for consumption at the fort at Astoria. Chewewe. not Chemawa. the home of Joseph nervals, located just below Ma- theny rapids near Wheatland, was located two and three-fourths miles south of Champoeg. Champoeg Warehouse "Iu 1832. the Hudson's Bay com pany built a small warehouse at Champoeg. also in Marlon county. for the storage of wheat, which tbey moved by primitive scows to Banker Trial acceptances from the McCormickj Lumber company upon the per sonal security and guarantee of Wheeler. When they were due, he said, they would be met with cash ier's checks of the Northwestern National bank. These, the govern ment alleges, were predicated up on credit built up at the North western National bank by the Mc Cormick Lumber company by the deposit of checks drawn on the eastern banks where the accept ances had been sold. When this "merry-go-round of credit." as the prosecution dubs it. ended with the discovery of the situation early in February. 1927. the Forest county National Bank company, Kelly said, heU $100,000 in log acceptances which have not been paid. r. T. Benscoter. secretary of the Brookville Title and Trust compans. Brookville, Pa., was an other government witness today. The McCormick Lumber company had an account with this institu tion and they also dealt in Its log acceptances. They now hold ap proximately 123.000 in trade ac- centances at the present time which have not been paid. Bens coter said. A note written to the North western National by the president of the Pennsylvania bank was Identified by Benscoter. The note read: "Why should this concern con tinue drawing checks on us when they know that they do not have founds on deposit?" This was written on a cash let ter dated July 3, 1926, which was returned to the Northwestern Na tional with one of the series of dishonored checks.

The Lee Mission "In 1834, Jason Lee located on the bank of the Willamette, 10 miles below Salem, the Methodist mission, and Marion county open ed up another port of call on the river. The everchanglng channel of thl stream has since those days moved to the east, making Inroads on the county of Yamhill and leav ing the old mission site inland and behind Beaver island. Karly Boat Lines "In 184 8 Captain Chas. Bennet. whose famous hostelry stood for many years on the site of the Ma sonic temple, ran a flat boat to Salem. "In 1849 Captain Pease operated a similar boat by the name of Che meketa, and in 1850 Captain Lem White advertised that his keel boat, the Salem Clipper, had run all season to Salem, and stated he was ready to go anywhere for car go. "In 1850 the diminutive elde wheeler, Hoosier, made her ap pearance at Salem and from that year on Salem has always had 'an anchor to windward' In the matter of service and equitable rates, and as long as a steamboat can make Salem at any season of the year it will prove a barrier to unjust rates. ( BlfifKt Bot-Hedqiuirteri ' "From 13 to 18T1, the largest marine corporatlosriln the -tate flourished here, many of the 65 j stockholders and all of the officers of which were resident property holders at Salem. On the coming of the railroad they sold their in terests to the rail line and the People's Transportation company became only a memory." The Karly Names The Wallace prairie spoken of by Capt. Smith included the sec tion in which the Bush place is now located north of the state school for the deaf and the Marion county poor farm lands, and the river landing must have been on the Geo. W. Weeks farm. Rev. J. L. Parrlsh. when the In dian school was removed to Us present site, and the place named Chemawa, used to dispute concern ing the pronunciation of that name. It was an Indian name, and Rev. Parrlsh contended that the Indians did not pronounce it much like you hear it now. He put the accent on the first sylla ble. Chenj, like dem in democrat, only he said the Indians chewed the name through their teeth, and it did not even sound much like dem. The other accent, he con tended, was on the last syllable, pronounced like way. Freight Will Be Ciiemp Capt. Smith knows all about trying to build up a freight busi ness, and getting it fairly well built up in the high water system to have It vanish like the wind In the low water season. He has been through all that, to his sor row. He says that, with river navlga tlon the year through, deisel boats will run on the river, with barges, and thev will carry and deliver freight between Portland and Sa lem at as low a rate as $1 a ton They could operate In the night as well as the day. He believes a great development will take Dlace in Salem and the other valley cities, when the raw materials can be worked up along the river's banks and shipped to it the world norts by water. This will bring and keep the money at home. JONES MARINE BILL PASSES U. S. SENATE (Ooatianed from pige 1) senate rejected-an amendment by Senator King, democrat.

WEDNESDAY MORNING. MORMON REBURIAL FUYEO Blf SMITH Church i Historian Brands Stunt 'As One For Sen sational Effect: SALT LAKH CITY. Utah. Jan. 31. (AP) The recant "dlscor- ery" and reburlal of the bodies of Joseph Smith, founder of Mormon' j Ism and his brother Hyrum, at Nauvoo today were branded as an effort for "sensational effect" by Joseph Fielding Smith, grandson of Hyrem. and official historian of the Latter Day Saints church (Mormon). In a statement made public here he denied that the original burial place of the two brothers, who were killed by a mob In 1844, had erer been a mystery. and declared that official church records contained explicit descrip tions of the spot. Nauvoo dispatches two weeks ago told of the discovery of the bodies in the basement of a de serted house In Nauvoo district by members ot the reorganised Mor mon church, ot which the leader Is Frederick M. Smith, grandson of Joseph! Smith. "These sacred remains should not have been disturbed, and such a despicable act could only be per formed by those who are lacking In all the finer feeling and In whom the spirit of reverence of things held sacred and holy by all faithful Latter Day Saints (Mormon), does not exist," Joseph Fielding Smith declared today "Frederick M. Smith has debased himself in the sight of all honor able men as well as In the sight of God. In this unholy and sacrelig- lous act." HICKMAN INSANE, MANY STUDENTS GIVE OPINION (Continued from 1) brother, Alfred. The school prln clpal declared Hickman to have been domineering only as are most brilliant boys. He noted a rath er pronounced decline in his school work the last year but his records 6howed there had been a greater decline between his soph omore and Junior years. A mixed crowd of spectators strained forward In their chairs to listen to the welter of deposi tions on Insanity read from the witness box by defense attorneys. Press Well Represented Newspaper reporters and fea ture writers predominated. Two ministers were interested spectat ors. Nearby sat a group of motion picture "fesses"',adeos thaLtjniriaoner's room a retired chief Justice from: Idaho.

Alfred Hickman, the prisoner's brother was absent today but the confessed killer's father, Thomas Hickman, sat in .the place he oc cupied yesterday. Judge J. J. Trabucco whose in sistent demand for speed in the hearing has featured the sessions since he took over the trial fol lowing the disqualification of Judge Carlos S. Hardy, added thirty minutes to the court day by opening this morning at 9:30 In stead of the usual 10 o'clock. Lawyer Chief Witness With a glass ot water in one hand and a sheaf of depositions In the other. Jerome Walsh, chief defense counsel, again took the stand to continue reading what neighbors of the Hickman family back In Arkansas and others had to say of the probable sanity or insanity of the prisoner's for bearers. Mrs. Marshal Smith of Sugar Creek, and Kansas City, Mo., state hospital nurse, said, according to her affidavit, that observation of Mrs. Eva WrtrtMfli. the defend ant's mother, during her sojourn in the hospital, led the nurse to believe the woman was insane.

Dr. Ruth, who is from Tulsa. Okla., had examined Mrs. hick man. He deposed that she suf fered from "mild damentla," that she was extremely melancholy. had hallucinations ot being abused and had the appearance of being in 111 health. Dr. Ruth repeated tale told In yesterday's deposi tions of Mrs. Hickman's husbana "running off" with another man's wife. He said that Mrs. Hick- m kl. man s trouoie was oi me curu type. The scene then shifted from the state bOBpltal mt Little Rock to the Central htgh school of Kan sas City where Hickman had been a student. Don Johnson, former school mate of the prisoner, pictured him working "night and day" for an oratorical contest, then slumping into lethargy when he lanea win recognition, and flaring into a burst of anger at the debating rluh of which he was an officer when asked for hisreslgnatlon. Found Brilliant Student Johnson admitted that Hick man had made hieh marks dur ing their years of school acquaint anceship. Maylor Sutton, another Kansas Citv school mate of Hickman's next was heard through his de position. He labeled the prisoner "eccentric" during his senior high schoof year. He also thought Hickman was "crazy" when he bought a small automobile in 1926 and sold It a few days later. The statement of Edward i-ee Hibbs came next. Hibbs remem bered that Hickman "had a girl' during his senior year and that he seemed terribly upset when she broke off with him. "He seemed to lose faith In all girls after that," Hibbs was quoted. Second Trial Today Depositions along the same geu oral line by Hickman's high school principal. Otto F. Dubach and an other school mate, C. M. McFar- land, were read and court was ad journed at 6 p. m. until 9:45 o'clock tomorrow morning.

ZANE GREY'S KELLEY APPEAL TO BE TAKEN TO HIGH COURT (Ooatiattta from pit 1) Oregon li tmoonitltutionat. and that to hanf alther Kallsy or Wil loi would U Judicial murder. IUnd Write Opinion Tha opinion wu written by Chief Jttitica Rand In habaas cormis orocaedlnga filed by Mrs. Estella Kelley, mother of the con vict, against Henry W. Meyers. superintendent of the atate pani- teutiary. The ' opinion affirmed the decree of Judge L. II. McMa- han of the Marlon county circuit court, who dismissed the applica tion for a habaes corpus writ. Attorneys for Kelley stressed . a . .11 the contention that tneir cuem was detained illegally In the peni tentiary at the time of tha break, and that he was within his rights when he attempted to escape. At the time of the break Kelley was serTlnsT a term of 10 years inj the state penitentiary for the crime of aiding and abetting a prisoner to escape from the coun ty Jail in Josephine county. It was contended by Kelley s at torneys that the law under which the convict was committed to the prison had been repealed, and that the commitment was faulty. Claim Penalty Unjust "The statutes questioned by Kelley's attorneys." read the opln inn. "have been on the statute books since 1864 and cases have arisen under them where convlc tlons have been had and appeals taken to this court. In none of those cases was It ever suggested that the statutes were unconstl tutlonal. While this is not in any way controlling yet It Is persua sive of their constitutionality. "Under authorities and the rule which nrevails everywhere, it is settled law that the Judgment of a court of general or special and limited Jurisdiction is reviewable upon habeas corpus only when It Is void and that no relief can be granted to the petitioner under the writ unless it ts void." Attorneys for Kelley also al leged that the sections of the statute under which the prisoner was sent to the penitentiary from JoseDhlne county were unconsti tutional In that the penalties pro vided are cruel and unusual and not proportioned to the offense. The supneme court did not con cur In this contention. "If the 6tatute under which Kelley was convicted and was serving at the time of his escape had been unconstitutional as al leged," continued the opinion, "it could not have afforded any Jus tification to Kelley to make an es cape. If Kelley's confinement had been Illegal, his act In aiding the escape of others in Josephine county, who were legally confined was In Itself a felony punishable, by Imprisonment in the peniten tiary. "Thera was no pretensa that the circuit court for Marlon county was 1 without -Jurisdiction -to try; Kelley for the mnTder of the slain guard or that his present Impris onment under the judgment of that court Is In any way Illegal There was, therefore, no author ity in law for the issuance in this case of a writ of habeas corpus The circuit court had no authority to issue the writ In the first. In stance and its subsequent dls missal was proper." As soon as the mandate in the Kelley case is prepared by the su preme court he will be resen tenced to death. At the same time Governor Patterson probab ly will revoke the reprieve Issued to James Willos. who was a com panion of Kelley In the prison break. It Is likely that the two men will be hanged at the same time. Other opinions handed down by 3C TTI3DAir i THURSDAY FRIDAY SATURDAY . i ths stata supreme court here to. day follow!
