It. Opens Up a Lot of Questions
as TO How to Get Him
Back Home
PROVIDED HE SHOULD RESIST
We Have No Lawful Right to Take
Him Away from Morocco.
No Extradition Treaty, Because We
Would Not Sign One-Might Defy
International Law and
kidnap Him.

Washington, Sept 5. - Four dis
patches have been received at the state
| department from Illinois authorities,
two from Governor Deneen and two
from States Attorney Healy. While
these were not made public it was
stated that all were in the nature Of
Iappeals to the department that it do
everything in its power to e1tradite'
Stensland, the Chicago bank wreckers
who was run down at Tangier, Mo-,
|! rocco. The authorities are cognizant
of the difficulties that must be over
come in view Of the fact that there
is no eXtradition treaty between this
country and Morocco. AT the same time
they look to Assistant Secretary Of
State Adee to linda way.
Adee and '.Bossn Tweed.
TIe was in charge of the legation at
Madrid when William NJ Tweed. Of
New York, was arrested in Spain.
There was then no extradition treaty
between the two countries, but Cap
tain Franklin, now Rear Admiral
Franklin, retired, was cruising in the
Mediterranean on war vessel He
was ordered to touch at Gibraltar on
his way to United States waters, and
Tweed was Informed by Adee that
| passage home awaited him on board
the war vessel. Tweed had been SO
harassed, and was SO nearly heart
broken at what he termed his ruined
life, that he decided to surrender. He
was given the admirars suite and
Travelled to the United States with ev-
cry comfort.
Only Way TO Secure Him.
That was the only way that Tweed
could have been secured. If an effort
had been made to escort him through
France or Portugal the authorities
there would have objected on the.
ground that the fugitive had not been
taken in pursuance Of treaty regula-
tons.
Talk of kidnapping the Prisoner.
The state department is without adj
vices from Gummere, United States
| minister to Morocco, who had been ca
| lbled to ascertain whether the sultan
would surrender Stensland upon proof
Of guilt and in the absence. of any ex
tradition agreement. The Moroccan
government is not under any obliga-
ton to place Stensland in the Gus
toby of this government except that
demanded by courtesy, an obligation
that has no lawful existence. We would
not under almost any circumstances
surrender a criminal to Morocco. But
as Morocco is weak state it is prac-
ticable to kidnap Stensland without
danger of a costly war, and this may
| be done.
Another Difficulty in the Case.

Although an ordinance intended to
prohibit the sale of trading stamps
within the city was passed by the
council recently, It now seems that
the measure will fail OF its purpose.
Under the ordinance 1t is provided
that any concern using trading stamps
in Pendleton shall pay an annual IL
cense of $500, payable quarterly, and
penalties are provided for those vio-
lating the ordinance.
However, in spite of the ordinance
the trading stamp concern having a
branch house on Court street is still
doing business at the same stand and
the trading stamp nuisance seems as
far from being abated as ever.
The reason why the stamp traders
have not been prosecuted is because
under the present city charter the
council has no authority to pass an
ordinance prohibiting such business.
There are many forms OF business,
such as saloons, that may be sub
jected to a prohibitory license, but
evidently the trainers of the charter
did not foresee the growth OF The
trading stamp pest. At least it was
not provided for In the charter.
Since the charter does not give the
Council power to prohibit the business
of selling trading stamps It is consid-
cred a legitimate business and by a
decision given by the Oregon supreme
court in Portland case, It was held
that a prohibitive tax cannot be
placed on such concerns.
Should proceedings be taken against
the concern doing business here, the
case would have to be taken to the
supreme court. Consequently City
Attorney McCourt has declined to
take the matter up unless the mer-
chants raise a fund with which to
carry the case up. This they have
not done so far and evidently the only
way in which the merchants may free
themselves from the stamp evil at
present is by all refusing to patron
ize such concerns.

SUIT FOR DIVORCE.
Mary Kennedy Seeks Separation From
Her Husband.

Suit for divorce was filed today by
Mary Kennedy against Harry B. Ken
nedy, c. T. Goodwin of Milton, being
the attorney for the plaintiff.
In the complaint it is stated that
the two were married at Latah. Idaho,
in 1894. and now have three children.
According to the plaintiff the defend
ant has always shown an undue fond
ness for women other than herself,
and she alleges that this has been es-
pecially true during the past three
years while the family has been at
Milton. ,..,r r-..l..--
Soon after their arrival there she
declares that her husband acquired a
strong attachment for one Ida New
man, and that the same continues to
this day. As a result of this infatua-
ton, she declares that the defendant
became surly, nagging and morose
towards herself and children.
This and other causes led to a sep
aration in October, 1905, and since
that time the two have lived apart,
and the defendant has not contribut-
ed to the support of the plaintiff or
her children. A decree of divorce is
asked for and also the custody of the
children.

A dispatch from North Yakima says
of Major Edwards trouble:
After being allowed to go upon his
own recognizance to appear in court
at 9 o'clock yesterday to answer to
charge of threatening a deputy sheriff
OF Yakima county, Major o. c. Ed
wards, agent of the Umatilla Indian
reservation, started to leave yester-
day on the o'clock train, but was
stopped by Sheriff Grant, who had
received an inkling of his move.
Major Edwards had left a 500
check addressed to the sheriff inform
ing him that he had talked over the
phone with his attorney and that he
wished the case postponed for 10
days. He was about to board the
train when stopped.
Justice Taggart was routed out Of
bed but refused to accept the 800
check, so Major Edwards was pre-
vented from leaving on the train.
He was in court at o'clock when

Louis Schlessinger, the German Jew
spiritualist and expert medium and
clairvoyant who gave an exhibition
to small party Of invited guests at
the home of DR.. and Mrs. w. G.. Cole
In this city two years ago. has just
died in Los Angeles, aged SO years. A
few years ago Schlessinger was rated
as the most remarkable medium of
the age, but declining health and old
age reduced his powers until of late
years he has not appeared much in
public. 1t is said that he had fore
told the day of his death for a num-
ber of years. having been warned by
a spiritual message from a deceased
brother who was his constant COM
'panion, although he had been dead
for years. The feats performed by
Schlessinger in this city attracted
much interest at the time.

With Robert Weddle safe in his
custody, Sheriff T. d, Taylor arrived
from spokane last evening and a few
minutes after reaching the city the
prisoner was once more placed be-
hind the bars of the county Jail from
which he had sawed to liberty Fri
day morning. He nor any of the other
prisoners will leave the Jail again un-
der such circumstances If the vigil
lance of the sheriff and his deputies
can prevent.
In capturing Weddle in Spokane
Sheriff Taylor was required to do
some fast running and won much
credit from the Spokane people for
his sprinting ability.
The following account of the sensa-
tional arrest is from the Spokesman
Review of yesterday morning:
THE sharp eye and active leg work
of Sheriff T. d. Taylor, of Pendleton,
Ore, led to one of the gamiest foot
races and capture of a criminal yes
terday afternoon that has stirred a
Spokane sidewalk audience in many a
day. The sheriff ran down Robert
Weddle, who escaped from the Una
tilla county, Oregon, Jail last Friday
night.
Sheriff Taylor reached town yester.
day afternoon in search of Weddle
and two other prisoners who escaped
from the Jail by saving through the
steel bars. The sheriff had registered
at the Victoria hotel and started north
on Wall street, when Weddell crossed
Wall street at rapid gate, going
west on Sprague avenue. Both men
saw one another simultaneously. We'd
die whirled quickly and started north
on the run. The sheriff as quickly
gave chase. 1t was about 6 o'clock
last night and the street was crowded.
"The chase led across Riverside
avenue north past the Old National
bank and across Main avenue. The
race was nip and tuck. Each of the
contestants is about 80 years of age.
The sheriff yelled "Stof thief" two
or three times, but the crowd merely
grinned and let the race proceed. On
the west side of Main avenue a small
man ceased leaning against tele-
Siop'' PoiV iOIS 'Hpu6h W StlCh out d
foot and send Weddle rolling like a
ball for about 20 feet. The trip won
the day for the sheriff"
Sheriff Taylor stated this morning
that just beyond where Weddle fell
| there was an alley and had he not
been tripped the Jail breaker would
doubtless have dashed down the
same. Expecting such a move, the
sheriff drew his revolver while run
ming and was intending to shoot Il
Weddle took the alley. He would
have done so sooner had the streets
rot been crowded.
The race between Weddle and the
sheriff covered a distance of two
blocks and two street crossings.
