State of Oregon VS.. Robert Wilberg,
charged with larceny. The jury which

Frank Cunningham, L. NJ. Grimes, John
Svenson Frank Brallier, L. Myllenbeck,
Geo. L. Hills, NJ. Deyereaux, A. G. Miller
and Perry Titus.
Harrison was brought from the county
Jail and placed on the witness stand.
He testified substantially as follows;
On the 9th of March he was sent by the
cashier of Skidmore & Co., of Portland,
by whom he was employed as messenger,
to their bank with money and checks
amounting to about S4l4, OF this
amount 5000 was in gold, silver and
currency, including 500 bill He had
been subject to epileptic fits, previously,
and after leaving the store he had a
queer feeling and was not aware OF what
he had done until he found himself on
the train for Astoria. After arriving
here he engaged rooms and started for
the postofiice but found the windows
closed. He next found himself in the
saloon wherein he became acquainted
with Wilberg. He spent some money
there and remained until about 2:90. He
went to his room accompanied by the
defendant who there struck him in the
face. They next went to a house he
could not specify Next morning he
missed his money, Everything was gone
and he complained to the landlord who,
after he had told his story, ordered him
to move, Objections of the counsel for
the defense as to his sending for the
chief of police, and what occurred were
sustained by the court. He stated that
he found $l7 in silver on his table with
coin wrappers of Skidmore & Company
in the slop jar. He had a $5 bill and
so cents in silver when he left Portland
in addition to Skidmore & Company's
money, He remembered seeing the 500
in the bank book.
His examination by Attorney
Fulton was very severe. During the
discrimination he admitted that
when he reached Astoria he had diff
ferent suit of clothes on to that worn
by him when in Portland, but did not
know where he got 1t,
"Is it not a fact" asked Fulton, "that
you had the bank book l5 minutes be-
fore your arrestS"
II did not" answered the witness.
Fulton asked him that if it was shown
that he had changed a 500 bill at the
Waldorf would it not prove that he was

German government. I think it proper to say that
such statements seem to me to be odd. because It
is well known how large personal ana pohucai
position Mr.. Tower has made for himself in Berlin
He maintains, it is true. with frmness the conteh-
tons of the United States. for instance IN the
International Wireless Telegraph Conference ana
in the recent tariff negotiations, but that is pre-
cisely what We expect of own ambassador
hrmness in behalf of national interests and their
advancement by sincere means. Mr. Towers long
experience in international matters and his power
OF interpreting clearly to US the American views
have contributed much to the good will between
our countries"
