Ex-Warden J. T. Jaynes Inter, viewed on the Subject Yes. tero'ay Afternoon His Views Are Plain. Tho story which the Portland papers have been using so much recently re garding Mrs Elliott Parkhurst, aud her alleged elopemeut frum her homo with the ex-convict liiley, has been the sourco of considerable worry to ex Warden J. 'J'. Jaynes, father of Mrs. Pai'khurst, who is a resident of l-Jlgene. Sir. Jaynes tnid yesterday when shown a clipping from the Portland Journal saying that Mrs. Paikhnrst wus at tho home of her parents in Eugene : NOT IN EUC.KNE. "Mrs. Parkhurst is not iu my home and has not been here at all since her trouide iu Portland a week or two ago. Tho detectives are wrong when they say that bIio Is hero; they are mistaken. 1 have heard from Mrs. Parkhurst by letter. She is not with tho ex convict, as alleged by tho Portland papers. Sho has not boeu with him siuco sho has been able to eseapo after ho compelled her to get into tho buggy. "It is my opinion that both Park hurst and Hiley wero too drunk to know what they wore doing wdieu tho latter struck Parkhurst. The whole miserable affair iH a frost and Mrs. Parkhurst is so averse to 'publicity and notoriety that sho has kept quiet. So have wo all. It was tho best thing to do, wo thought, and until the mut ter straightens Itself out it Is best to keep tho silence up." TUB ORIGINAL TUOULILE. "The disappearance of Mrs. Park hurst and . liiley followed tho dis charge of the convict from tho Salem prison. He came to Portland, whero .Mr. Parkhurst befriended lum, iuvit- iug him to his house to lodge. Ou the way home, tho night of the day when Kiloy wan set free, ho is said to have assaulti d Parkhurst, beating him severely. Parkhurst ran away from his assailant and escaped. The last Parkhurst saw of his wifo aud liiley they wero getting into a car riage. Tho driver said ho took them to a lodging house, but that they did not remain thero that night waB proved by the landlord. Following this all clues wero lost." This places a new phase of tho sub joct boforo tho public. Instead of Mrs. Parkhurst eloping she was forood by tho drunken ex-convict iuto the carriage and driven uway. She Is not with him now but is probably terror ifd into keeping silent regarding tho whereabouts of Hilay.
