CASE TO REACH
y
Fate of Condemned Man i&
Expected to be Settled
by Friday Night
If Proven Sane, Slayer Will
be Sentenced for Third
Time to Hang
CHICAGO, Aug. 6. (p) The state
today concluded itn efforts to prove
KiiHsell Scott sane.
Dr. Wm. O. Krohn, the last prone
cution alien Ui, told of his examina
tion of Scott and his conclusion that
the prisoner was sane. He repeated
stories of the four previous state
alienists that Scott declined to sub
mit to an examination in the jail.
There Is no appeal for Kupsell
Bcotl from the verdict of the Jury
testing whether he Is sane and
should be hanged or Is not mentally
Cognisant of the death penalty he
faces.
No Alternative
If thu jury decides he Is sane
enough to realize Judge Joseph Fl.
David will fix a new date for the
iftion, from which Scott has
twice been snatched a few hours be
fore the death march.
Incarceration at once in a state
institution would follow an Insanity
finding.
All tho prosecution witnesses, ex
perts and laymen, believed Scott
sane, just as the fourteen defense
witnesses thought confinement and
two death watch ordeals had affect
ed his mind;
Jailers Testify
Jailers related conversations with
Scott and described his actions in
the death cell. Four alienists, three
of whom said, they expected foes, of
$l0U a day. concluded Scott was
sane after a 15 minute, observation
in which he was an unwilling sub
ject. The .defense alienists b9-jed their
opinions on more than ten hours' ex
amination over three days.
Three hours were allotted each
side for closing arguments. If the
full time is used the case will not
go to the jury before tomorrow

Three Offers
For City Park
Made to Board
Oregon Trunk Submits
Proposals at Meet
ing Today
At a Kpi.ilal meeting of tin. Park
Hoard, which wan held In the city
hall this afternoon, (!. II. Richmond,
peclal agent for the Oregon Trunk,
abmlttad three proposition!! for the
settlement of the question that has
arisen out of the efforts of the rail
road company to secure the city
park.
The first offer was 19.200 for tho
strip of land parallel to lilverslde
street. This strip Is ahout S00 feet
long and varies In width from OS
feet to 160.
The second offer was for the en
tire park, which the company Is very
deslrlous of securing. For the en
tire park property an offer of S 18,
00 was made. This is but little
less than three times what the city
has invested In the property.
The third offer was one on an ex
change basis. The company con
trols ahout four and one-half acres
out on East Main street, nearly op
posite the residence of Dr. A. A.
Soul... nn which is located a hot
springs. Mr. Ilichtnond offered to
deed this property to the city and
In addition pay the sum of $8,000.
The park board countered with
an offer to sell Ihe railroad two
acres for $15,000. This. It was said,
would be sufficient tj permit a right
of way through that se-tion. Mr.
Richmond then suggested that the
matter be referred to the people in
order to get their Ideas of the mat
ter, but the board did nut indicate
that this would be done.

Lumbermen
Sel I Out
ToS.P.
'Big Stick" and Bribery
Bring Support from
Large Group
"That statement would
never have been signed by
two-thirds of those whose
signatures are on the docu
ment if they were not in
absolute terror of ihe South
ern Pacific railroad com
pany." Thus did a well known
lumberman of this territory
epitomize the reason for the
stand that has been taken
by fourteen representatives
of the lumber industry in
this county, when they sign
ed a document which, in
effect, stated that they did
not want a competing rail
road line built into Klamath
county. The reason for this
most remarkable act is beat
told by this lumberman, who
has been in close touch with
all of the negotiations:
"T'lat Is one rea.'Dn. you mljf'
say the compelling reason. otj
was a'straight sell-out to the Soli--thern
Pacific. When the represen
tatives p the S. P. first came t
the himtiennen with this proposition
It was y)l3ty received, for It car-rit-.l
wit'.i it nothing buUhe threat
that If t ley did not line up back
of the Southern Pacific the timu
wxuld come when they wonld pay
the price for their lack of assistance.
The first move wbb to be made this
year through car shortage
watch on car loading and curtail
ment of sever.il privileges that have
been extended to Uem in the past.
First t.-oncesikn
"Xesctiatlons were opened and
first one thing and then anothor
was conceded by the S. P. Demur
rage adjustment was accepted firjt.
then came the extension ot the Klrk
Klamath Falls logging rate to Lake
view, then the abolition ot the swit
ching charge in connection wiUi
the Strahorn line. Each of these
won someone over, but the big
prize was demanded by not a few
the big prize which, when grant
ed, resulted in the production of one
ot the most remarkable documents
ever brought forth In any commun
ity. This big prize was the granting
to the Klamath territory- the True
kce lute.
"Westwood. Susanvllle and all
mills in t ie Tritckee region have
had a big advantage over thu
Klamath mills in the matter of rates
en eastern shipments. This rate
amounts to about three cents. Thin
on a carload shipment cf lumber
to the east amounts to a good many
tihoiuand dollars In the courso of
a year. It is the rate that would
have been in effect If the .Modoc
Northern had been constructed. It
wus rung from the Southern Pacific
only after tt most stubborn fight,
but the granting of It assured the
solidity of the f mrteen concern:!
