GIRL Of THIRTEEN
IS ASSAULTED
Fee Phillips Attacked Near
Oregon Short Line ViaduCt
on Sunday Night.

Fee Phillips, the thirteen-y ear-old
daughter of Lynn A. Phillips, was brutal
" assaulted last Sunday evening. Jim
HaiisOn, a Greek, now in the city jail
has been identified by her as her assail-
ant. Haiison was run down last night
after two days chase by Policeman
George Phillips an uncle of the girl, and
her father. He has been positively iden-
titled by the young girl.
On Sunday evening Fee was going home
with another girl about 10 o'clock. Just
before going over the viaduct over the
Oregon Short Line tracks her companion
met a man and a woman with whom she
was acquainted and stopped to talk to
them. The Phillips girl walked slowly on
ahead. When she had gone about fifty
yards, HaiiSOn jumped from place OF
concealment and grabbed her. With one
hand he seized her arm and he placed
the other over her face. He led her over
the viaduct to vacant lot south OF the
fair grounds, which is about five blocks
from the place he first grabbed her.
There he fastened the girl to the ground
with stakes. He kept her there until 4
O'Clock the next morning. During the
time he cut some Of her hair and the
young girl discovered that he had
light he feared detection and fled. The
girl freed herself and ran home. Here she
related her experience to her parents.
Search for Criminal.
Her father. with PatroIman Phillips. i'm
mediately took up the case. There was
no clue on which to work. They knew it
was impossible to locate him without a
description, so they set a trap. The Phil
lips girl was accustomed to walk along the
street where he first caught her on her
way home from work. So they told her
to go along there as usual and he would
most likely attack her again. When she
passed the spot he stepped out and
grabbed her. but when he noticed some
persons were approaching he escaped
through the block. She got a good de-
scription of him and among other things
noticed there was a cut in the top of his
hat.
The information was turned over to Po-
liceman Phillips and her father. and they
began a search for the man. They sought
him necessarily from that time until he
was arrested in a restaurant on West
Temple street He was taken to the pO-
lice station and on him were found the
razor and scissors, but not the gun. His
hat had the cut in it that the girl de-
scribed She was taken to the station
and positively Identified as the man who
assaulted her.

Yes sir

We'll. if you owed him $1,000 for the
chips you bought, and he owed you
$4,000 on the hand, that made you
square. didn't it?''
1t took Mr.. Donaldson some time to
convince the district attorney that he
was off on his mathematics and that
O'Brien had to redeem not only the
$4,000 he had lost, but also the 1000
worth of chips held by Donaldson, so
that after paying for the chips orig
inally purchased Donaldson still had
$4,000 coming.

witness which proved a little more
costly. Donaldson had testified to
purchasing 80 100 worth of chips, but
when the bets were all counted I'D it
was found that he had bet in the game
$3.50 worth of chips. This Donaldson
managed to account for by the state
ment that O'Brien had given him four
yellow chips too many, or $500 worth
instead of the $1,000 he had called for.
Now why didn't OBrien pay you
for those chips you say he owes you
for?"
Because they conspired and did me
the same as they did the McWhirters.
You know all the city detectives?"
Yes sir -
Mr.. Loofbourow then enumerated all
of the city detectives except Raleigh,
asking the witnes if he knew each one.

as ever to have him here to testify"
You know that he is in the county

Yes. sir; and 1 also know that he
refuses to testify. I want him be
cause l thought he would be truthful,
and not like Parent"
Donaldson then continued his story
of what transpired following the rob-
berry. He said he telephoned his niece
that he would bring some gentlemen
out to dinner that evening. He bought
some groceries and met Larry and Jack
OBrien and Parent at the corner of
First West and Second South and went
with them to his sisters home in the
New England addition. Bell and Par
rents brother drove out later. Bell re-
naming for a time. After that they all
walked back to town. Donaldson's
sisters little dog followed them, and
Donaldson stepped in several places to
telephone to have his nephew come up
town after the dog.
Now. isn't it a fact that you tele-
phOned to Chief Sheets to meet him at
the corner of Third South and State
streets, and didn't you and Bell meet
him there?',

"Mulvey was sore at Sheets because

Because l was afraid of getting

He then told of following Bell to the
police station and waiting until he
came out with the two McWhirters,
and then following them in a cab to
the depot. Bell had told him he would
repay the money on the train, and he
watched-to see whether or not he
would do it. After the train had gone
he asked Bell why he didn't give them
the money on the train. Bell said he
had paid them at the police station.
Donaldson said that was a nice place
