COMMISSIONER BUTLER
SECURES NEW ROUTE
Finds Another Road for Auto
mobiles While Bridge Is
Closed for Repairs.
Cuumv Cotnmi.-sioncr T. J. Builc
announced yesterday that he had
made arrangements with Hub liryant
for teams and motor vehicles to pas
through his place in going from Al
bany to Corvallis or way points by
the road on this ide of the river.
This is due to the fact that the bridge
crossing the Calapooia just southwest
of town is closed on account of re
pairs, the old wooden bridge being
replaced with steel, as chronicled in
yesterday's Democrat. The new
route is mapped out by Mr. Duller as:
By crossing the bridge at the foot of
Third street into Bryant's park, then
take the left hand road and this leads
into the main Corvallis ro3d at the
George Chne place.
Mr. Butler says that lie secured this
new right-of-way on account of com
plaints of au'.omobilists to the effect
that they are unable to make the
ford crossing, that has been in use
during the reconstruction of the
bridge. This route leads off from the
main road a few rods from the foot
of the bridge and the stream is cross
ed by fording to a steep embankment
on the other side. Automohilists have
been unable to climb this irradc ow
ing to the loose gravel, sand and mud.
On the other hand teams have been
able to negotiate the route witn out
little trouble.

Arrest of Dr. E. A. Murot Im

MUROT ARRAIGNED THIS
MORNING IN COURTS
Doctor's Servant Released.
Smith Believed ToBea Hard
1 ened Criminal by Physician.
(By United Press Association)
New York, Sep. 16. Claiming that
they have obtained a chain of evi
dence which will prove Hans Schmidt
both a murderer and a counterfeiter,
police officials here this morning pre
dicted a speedy trial for the priest and
death in the electric chair.
Dr. Ernest Arthur Murot, a prac
ticing dentist was last night arrested
and this morning arraigned upon the
charge of carrying fire arms, pending
further investigation by detectives of
his connection with a counterfeiting
scheme in which both he a.id Schmidt
arc alleged to be partners. A coun
terfeiting plant was located in the
former's house by detectives and po
lice officials assert that Schmidt is
unquestionably the moving spirit in
the scheme for defrauding the feder
al government. Dr. Murot was re
manded to jail temporarily. Carry
ing fire arms under the New York
law is a penitentiary offense but it is
probable that he will first be tried on
the counterfeiting charge.
Bertha Zack, the young girl who
was acting as Murot's servant and
posing as his wife, has been released
from custody. The police at first
believed that she was a partner in the
counterfeiting scheme but no evi
dence could be found against her by
the officers.
Proof that Schmidt is an ordinary
criminal as well as an extra clever
one has convinced the officials that
he is sane. Many of those who first
believed that lhe was a mad man are
now convinced as to his sanity. The
hideous details of the tragedy have
been told and retold by Schmidt to
day and he still poses as a religious
fanatic.

San Francisco, Sep. 17. Two years
in San Quintin penitentiary and a fine
of two thousand dollars was the sen- '
tence imposed today on Diggs, for
mer state architect of California and
eighteen months in San Quintin and
a fine of fifteen hundred dollars was
the sentence imposed upon Caminet
ti, son of the commissioner general of
immigration by Federal Judge Van
Fleet here today.
Not upon the young men who stood
before the bar did the United States
judge pour his wrath when lie pro
nounced sentence, however. With
scarcely a word against the two pris
oners, lie scathingly denounced so
ciety that winks at so lax a system
of morality which made the Diggs
Caiuinctti cases possible. At such
parental neglect as rendered pos
sible Martha Warrington and Lola
Morris to fall into the hands of Diggs
and Caminetti, the judge condemned
in no uncertain terms.
Both defendants were convicted of
the violation of the Mann white alsv
ery act by transporting the Warring
ton and Norris girls to Reno for im
moral purposes. Both prisoners
were granted a ten days stay of exe
cution pending appeal and were re
leased on bonds.
