The council committee on en-

Mayor Linck says Mr.. Trust

Calls Her Liar.
In reviewing the case and in
referring to the womans an
swers to questions, M. Wales, of
the prosecution, said:
Madame Steinheil was a liar
at the age of five and never has
reformed.
Lefebvre, who is about 20
years old, is practically unknown
in Paris. -.
Disguised as Woman.
In tragic manner, after pro-
claiming Madame Steinheil en-
tirely innocent, he recited every
detail of the murders, declaring
robbery to have been the motive
Lefebvre declared that he dis.
guised himself as woman, and
with a companion, a Pole, pro
ceeded to the Steinheil home
where he murdered the artist
and Madame Japy.
At this juncture of the confes
sion the red widow" dropped in.

several minutes to revive her.
When she had recovered, the
Judge ordered the Frenchman tC

Lefebvre did so, and facing the
spectators, gave a detailed story
of the murders.
Accomplice Dead.
At the conclusion of his state

red wig was found in a pocket
Lefebvre declared that his accom-
plice in the murders was dead.
Justice Devalles ordered LIE
febvre to be locked up until ar
investigation as to his sanity
could be made. The mans story
also Will be carefully investigated
and sifted.
After Lefebvre had been re
moved from the courtroom. the
examination of Madame Steinhei

had entirely recovered her self
possession and confidence, anc

The present double phone sys-

NTY COMMISSIONERS
STILL HAVE POWER OVER
FRANCHISES AND MAY RE-
FUSE TO GRANT ONE TO
''SHORT LINE"

"The county commissioners
have sole jurisdiction in cases of
granting franchises for railroad
companies to cross county high
ways"
This Is -he decision of Deputy
Prosecutor F. D. Oakley given this
morning in response to a COM
munication. sent him by the board
asking whether the 1909 law
gives this right to the state rail-
road commission. The attorney
states that the railway commits
sion only has the power of stat
ing in what manner the railroa
lie to cross the county roads and
that a franchise must first be
granted by the county commits
sioners.
This question arose when the
attorneys for the Puget Sound
Electric Railway company at
tempted to withdraw their appli-
cation for a franchise for their
short hne to Puyallup from the
board. 1t is thought that
they feared the commissioners
would take action in favor OF n
Puyallup delegation which asked
that the franchise be denied un-
less the company agreed to a low
er rate than the one they are no y
charging. The attorneys hope to
have the franchise considered by
the state board to avoid any pos
sibility of being compelled to
lower the rates.

May Secure
Jury This
Week
RAPID PROGRESS NOW BE-
ING MADE IN KVALSHAUG
CASE - WOMAN WEARS
WORRIED LOOK.

The selecting of a jury to try
Mrs. Martina Kvalshaug for the
murder of her husband is pro-
crossing more rapidly than was
expected, and eleven Jurors have
now been passed for cause by
both sides. Those temporarily
passed are: Richard Herrell, ].
w. Beckett, ]. C. Heitman, ]. T.
Willis, w. T. Wilson, B. b. Pers-
ing, Charles Kernahan, II. FIem-
ing, A. R. Buynney, A. n. Wells
and F. w. McKeehan. 1t is prob
able that the jury may be accept
ed finally before the end of this
week, although there are 1s per-
Iemptory challenges to be exer-
cised.
Alex Still, one of the Jurors
who brought in the verdict of
guilty against Charles Newcomb,
was called again in the trial of
Mrs. Kvalshaug. He was chal-
lenged by the defense as being
.prejudiced, and the challenge was
sustained by the court. Still de-
clared that he had no opinions
whatever as to the guilt of the
woman and believed that he could
give her fair trial.
A controversy arose this morn
ing as to whether Richard Her
rell, the colored man passed for
cause as juror No. 1 was not dis
qualified because he was sum-
moned as Rich" Herrel. He
stated this morning that he had
never been called by that name,
and the defense challenged him,
but was overruled by Judge Eas-
Iterday.
Mrs. Kvalshaug now has a
slightly worried look while in
court, in contrast to her indif-
ferent attitude at the beginning
of the trial. She watches very
closely all the proceedings and
talks with her attorneys occa-
sionally. She Is taken to and from
the court room by three deputy
sheriffs, one walking in front.
one behind and one beside her.
