OFFICIAL SAYS
He IS GUILTY
Prominent Attorney in
Oregon Taken Into
Custody.
specia Dispatch t6 The Call.

ASHLAND, Or, Sept. ia sensation
was caused in this city to-day by the
news of the arrest of George w. Trefren,
for years prominently engaged here in the
law, real estate and insurance business,
on the charge of uttering a forged instru-
ment by placing the same on record
The information filed against Trefren
was at the instance of District Attorney
Reames and charges him with having
placed on the county records a spurious
release of mortgage on property on Me-
chanic street in this city. The property
in question was formerly owned by Tref-
ren. who to secure a loan of 5000 from
r. K. Sutton, gave the latter a mortgage
upon it. Afterward Trefren sold the prop
erty to a Mr.. Dyar and later Sutton trans
ferred his mortgage to the late Mrs. j.
Houck, who did not record the assign
ment at the time.
In settling up the Houck estate the
executors discovered a satisfaction OF the
sutton mortgage on file and dated back
to July, 1901. This led to the investiga-
tion by the District Attorney.

JURY DECLARES
IT WAS MURDER
James r. Stokes Con-
victed in the Court
at Ukiah.
Rancher Of Mendocino Must
Go to Penitentiary
for Life.
Special Dispatch to The Call

UkIAH, Sept. 19.-James r. Stokes was
found guilty of murder in the Superior
Court here this afternoon and his punish
ment was fixed by the jury at life i'm
prisonment This was the second trial
of the case, the jury in the former trial
in june having disagreed. The evidence
was wholly circumstantial
James r. Stokes and his brother, Rob-
ert Stokes. lived near each other on'
mountain side, few miles from the town
Of Bonneville, in this county. Their
wives were sisters. In the early morning
of March 2s, 1903, James r. Stokes went
to the house of a neighbor and reported
that his brother Robert and wife had
been murdered, or had committed sui
eide, in their own house He asked that
the Coroner be sent for and the neighbor-
hood aroused.
When the neighbors assembled at the
house of Robert Stokes they found his
dead body lying in the doorway of the
kitchen, the feet extending out upon the
steps and a shotgun lying at his feet with
a cotton string tied to the trigger. He
had been shot in the mouth, the bullets
passing through the brain. On the bed
in the main bedroom lay the body of his
wife, Sarah Stokes, in her night robe.
She had also been shot in the upper part
of the face and had died instantly.
Informations were filed charging James
r. Stokes with having murdered both.
The District Attorney, Robert Duncan,
assisted by Attorney j. c. Ruddock, elect
ed to try the case of Sarah Stokes first,
and this second trial began last Wednes-
day. The defense was conducted by John
L. McNab.
The theory of the defense was that
Robert Stokes first killed his wife and
then himself. The shotgun found at the
feet of the dead man belonged to James
r. Stokes. The defendant admitted on
the stand that he had formerly had trou-
bic with his brother Robert and they had
even fought, but that was months before
the tragedy. The case against the same
defendant for the murder of Robert
Stokes has not yet been set for trial The
jury in the case to-day was out only half
an hour.

that he was mixed up in the Chinese sub
stitution scandal there was a general out

few days later he confessed fully, impli-
eating two Cinnamon and Thomas j..

Jail. He told how he had secured the
custody of six young Cinnamon confined
in the County Jail for deportation to take
them to the steamer Gaelic, which sailed
September II. On reaching Jackson and
Sansome streets he gave the prisoners a
signal and they disappeared. He then
went to the Appraisers building, where
he met HON Toon and Wong Tin, who
had six decrepit Cinnamon anxious to re-
turn to their native country. These were
bundled into a hack and taken on board
the Gaelic by Gamble. who represented
that they were the six Chinese ordered
to be deported. The substitution was dis
covered by officials of the Chinese Inspec-
