Carelessness of Banks and
Business Men
Governor Withycombe today issued
condition pardons to Frank Thomas aad
Fred W. Williams, inmates of the peni
tentiary. Fred AV. Williams has been serving
a sentence for larceny. He was com
mitted from L'niou county anil was par
doned upon the recommendation of the
trial judge, Hon. J. W. Knowlos, Dis
trict Attorney F. S. Kvaahoe, and the
directors of the bank he defrauded.
Frank Thomas was received from
Morrow county on tho charge of ob
taining goods by false pretenses and
sentenced to serve from one to five
years in the penitentiary. Newly dis
covered evidence has made the guilt of
I nomas extremely doubtful and because
ot this fact Judge Gilbert W. i'helps,
before whom Ibomnn was tried, and
District Attorney Glenn Y. Wells, of
.Morrow county, have urged a pardon
for him. Thomas' conviction was based
upon a check which it was alleged he
had forged but since his receipt at the
penitentiary numerous unquestionably
similar checks have been issued, includ
ing some in the state of Nebraska, and
it is impossible to reconcile this fact
with the guilt of Thomas. After a care
fill examination of this newlv discover
ed evidence the judge and district at
torney urged the release of Thomas and
the conditional pardon was today grant
ed him upon these recommendations.
In speaking of the population of the
Oregon Btate penitent mrv Governor
.AVithycombe made the following state
ment:
"Conditions would indicate that the
penitentiary will be confronted with a
deficit. It now has 532 inmates, the
largest number of prisoners in tho his
tory of that institution.
"Last year 257 prisoners were re
ceived and up until November 1st, of
this year, 220 have been received,
which is a slightly increased rutio over
last year.
"A rather striking feature is that 20
per cent of the prisoners were commit
ted for forgery or obtaining money by
false pretenses, and most unfortunate
ly the larger portion of this class of
i-riminiiiB is cuniposeu oi young men
just entering maturity. This is really
appalluig and shows a serious moral
obtoseness nmong some of our young
men. vinntover influence is responsible
for contributing to this deplorablo con
dition should be remedied if possible,
whether it is due to sociul conditions
or to general carelessness of .bankers
and rusiuess men in cashing checks."

There Is No Punishment Pro
vided By Law For Those
Who Escape
Norfolk, A'a., Nov. 13. As the result
of escape of auotuor seaman, H. Thiery
from the interned Germnn raider Prinz
ELtel Friedrich, all the crew henceforth
must be mustered at roll call . thrice
daily.
Thiery, it is alleged, lowered him
self over the side and swam under the
docks. Boats and trains are being
watched to apprehend him.
'Daniels desired to know how far he
might go in view of the latest escape
Officials, however, doubt that much
could be done, iirview of tho fact that
breaking parole is not a criminal of
tense, und under internatiouul law
breaking thereof is only violation of n
pledge ot honor.

Physicians Are Mystified By
Society Girl's Strange
Conduct
Atlanta, On., Nov. 13. Miss Julia
Choato Crumley's weird dream romance
culminating when the girl, her bruin
afire, brought homo a man's body
claiming it to bo that of her deud
sweetheart, has vanished, leaving be
hind a puzzle for psychologists and
nerve doctors, and a sensation for At
lanta society.
Police and members of her family
turned today to investigation of how
the girl's fancy resulted in her claim
ing an unknown body in a Chicago mor
gue, nnd bringing it hnmo as that of
"Dr. Aleyno Hensley, " a Canadian
widower, whom her feverod imagina
tion had pictured as her fiance.
At first her family insisted that tho
body was that of t'no girl's husband;
later that tho girl was self hypnotized.
Miss Crumley, prominent in Atlanta so
ciety, pictured her "romance" to her
friends. She seemod joyful. Then a
cloud seemed to come over the affair;
she was disheartened, She had been
jilted, sho said.
Then thero was tho "reconciliation"
and she was to wed. Friends entertain
ed for her in honor of tho ovont.
Suddenly, the girl's strange imagin
ation pictured her "fiance" killed in
a ruilroad wreck. Later, sorrowing,
she brought home the body of tlio" doc
tor," which, It develops, sho got from a
Chicago morgue.
Just before tho funeral of tho sup
posed sweetheart, suspicion arose; how,
nobody knows. Hut tho girl broke
down under questioning and admitted
her romance bad existed only ill her
imagination.
Chicago advices reported that tho
body she brought home was that of a
man killed on the Illinois Central rail
way. Physicians are mystified. Tho ease
is the first they huvo encountered. Self
hypnotism, however, they said, may nc
count lor the strungo fiction the girl
compounded.
