would probably be returned here to
night. Ralph E." Leighton. former chief of
police here, whoobserved the position
of the girl s body when It was discov
ered, said he believed she had , been
induced to crawl through the 16-ineh
culvert to escape the cold wind of
last Monday night.
The fact that her clothing was not
disarranged, as axithorities believed It
would have been had she been thrust
into the' culvert, was his ground for
this belief.
Then, he theorized, with her arms
pinioned helplessly at her side and
only her head protruding from, the
narrow opening, her assaulant had
crushed her head with a small rock
and ended her life with his pistol.
Find Death Weapon
The rock, blood-stained, was found
nenr the body.
Van Vlack was removed from his
cell In the county court house be
tween Sheriff Prater and two other
men. Fifteen or 20 persons watched
the departure.
Stepping briskly beside his gxiards.
the prisoner, hatless and wearing a
brown suit, turned and looked back
toward the top of the court ho.ise.
He was thrust into the sheriffs auto
mobile, which dashed quickly around
a corner and headed eastward at a
rapid rate.
Whether Van Vlack will be granted
a preliminary hearing on the charge
of murdering Patrolman Cooper ap
peared doubtful today. Probate Judge
Guy L. Kinney, before whom he was
arraigned Wednesday, said he had the
option of refusing a hearing in view
of Van Vlack's waiver.
Prisoner Told Rights
The Judge said he explained to the
defendant three times what his rights
were, before he accepted the waiver of
a hearing. E. V. Larson, who con
ferred with the prisoner's parents, Mr.
and Mrs. Carl Van Vlack of Tacoma,
said he had advised them to request a
preliminary hearing.
Deputy Sheriff Henry C. Oivens.

when Cooper was slain, had & "bad

said today. His condition yesterday
was reported considerably Improved.

of money was found undisturbed in
Hall's clothing.
The puzzling features of the trag
edy, center chiefly around the auto
matic pistol. The shell was uncjected
and the weapon cocked. Gun experts
claim this type of pistol ejects the
shell after firing.
The pistol was laying on the table,
at the left side of Hail. Nearby were
cleaning rods, rags, and a can of oil.
which were used in cleaning the
weapon. Hall had been seated at a
table against the wall, in a chair, at
an angle. When the bullet struck.
Hall slumped slightly forward In the
chair and was held In a sitting pos
ture, when his legs rested against &
table leg.
Hall's hands were lying across his
lap, with hts head resting on the back
of the chnir. The authorities claim
the natural tendency would have
been to throw his hands and arms
limp by his side. They further hold
it would have been phyMoally Impos
sible for Hall to have placed the
pistol in the position It was found
after the bullet struck.
The Jusllce court case, in which
Hall charged Geary with assault and
battery, is still pending. Geary was
scheduled to appear in Justice court
Tuesday afternoon, to present wit
nesses in his lefense. The case was
deferred ten days ago to permit Geary
to assemble these witnesses. Hall
Identified Geary as the man who hit
him In the head, with a beer bottle,
during an altercation near the Hall
field. Friends and acquaintances of
Geary say he bore Hall no 111 will, as
a result of the charge.
S. J. Hall of Portland, a. brother of
the dead man. arrived today to attend
to family matters in connection with
the case.
Hall had been a resident of this
county for 30 years. He was a former
forest ranger and had lived on Elk
creek for the past 15 years.
