APPLICATION Is MADE FOR
TRANSCRIPT OF SCHiVELYS
STATEMENT TO SPOKANE
GRAND JURY FOR USE AT
OLYMPIA.

If the superior court of this
county decides that the ends Of
justice will be served by such &C
ton, a transcript of the testimony
given by State Insurance Commits
sioner Schively before the Spokane
grand jury in the Pacific Livestock
investigation will be used In the
impeachment proceedings to be
brought against Schively at Olym-
pia next month.
Notes of the testimony are under
control of Judge Huneke and Pros
ecuting Attorney Pugh and cannot
be removed without the consent of
both. Application for a transcript
Of it has ben made by Representa-
tive Edge Of the house board of
trial managers and Assistant At
torney General Lee. Mr.. Pugh is
willing that the transcript should
be taken. Judge Huneke's answer
is expected this afternoon.
Whether Schively has thrown up
his hands or has some move under
cover that he is depending upon to
save him is a puzzle to the state
officers in charge of the trial.
Schively has not taken dispositions
of absent witnesses, as his attor-
ney stated would be done, and has
apparently taken no notice of the
states action in preparing to pre-
sent testimony from a numberb of
persons by dispositions.

.R0UTSROBbERS
WITH CANE

Though John Connolly, an old
man, was stabbed in the hip and
threatened with death by two men
who held him up on Riverside ave-
nue. early this morning, he put
them to flight with his cane, saw
ing his money.
He was found, exhausted and
bleeding profusely from his wound,
by Officer Downey and taken to
the emergency hospital. Connolly
said they tried to stab him in the
stomach, but that he turned sud
denly. catching the thrust in the
hip. 1t is the belief of the emer-
gency physicians that had the rob-
bers struck their intended mark.
Connolly would have been killed.
Connolly is staying at the Demp-

GIVEN
ON TRAGEDY

That Fred G. Browning's murder
of his wife and his own suicide
was thoroughly premeditated and
was because OF jealousy and heavy
drinking, was established last night
by the discovery of newly writ
ten letter in his coat pocket after
he lay dead by his own hand. The
letter was written by Browning
yesterday morning to his divorced
wife, Eva Browning. from whom he
separated prior to his marriage
to the woman whom he murdered,
In it he told her of his passion
ate love for his second wife-how
much better he loved her than he
did the one to whom he was writ
ing. He asked her to have a deed
signed by his mother conveying a
certain lot he had once decided to
his mother, over to Josie Sharpe, a
baby son of his second wife.
The letter indicates that he was
once worth considerable money.
He told of his second wife's lack
of affection for him of late and de-
clared he was heart broken. Miss
Marie Garrett. the murdered wom-
ans cousin, stated yesterday that
Browning and his wife read the
letter over together yesterday
morning He kept gun about
him and his wife believed he had
written the letter to scare her. 1t
is now believed that he shot her
as she lay in bed.
All last night the little two year
old son, Josie, who was with his
mother when Browning shot her
to death, and their little daughter,
Thelma Browning, age nine, wept
bitterly and pleaded for papa" and
mama" They could not seem to
understand that they were both
dead. Browning died last night in
the Sacred Heart hospital.
Ever since arriving here, after a
stormy trip from Quincy, Mich,
during which train porters were
called on to stop Browning at one
time while choking his wife, Mrs.
Browning seemed to think there
was some i'll omen in the fact that
they left on Friday and occupied
berth No. Is on the train.
Miss Garrett is mere girl her
self, but will care for the orphan
ed children and probably take them
back to Michigan as soon as ar
rangements for the burial OF the
murderer and his victim are made,
II has not yet been decided wheth-
er TO bury them here or to take
them back to Michigan. The bodies
are at the Gilman morgue.

Brown Is in a pinch for pitchers
for today's game. He will prob
ably give Dollar another trial in
order to favor Jensen, who worked
three times last week. Dellar was
dazed and dopey yesterday, but
may be right today, although il he
has the goods concealed about his
person, the average ian can't To-
cate them. Brown has faith in
him, however. If Deller falls down
it will probably be up to Jensen
to pull the game out of the fire, as
it was up to Holm yesterday.
Burnett will be back in the
game next week, and when Brinker
is able to play again, Brown will
have the problem of choosing be-
tween heavy stickers for the bench
even if he does not play himself.
With Brinker in center, Connors
will be again displaced, and Con
nors is the most popular sticker
with the fans on the team. Unless
Clynes picks up in his hitting he
may get rest and Connors 60
into left. Stevens has been work
ing better lately than ever before
and is likely to stay out in the sun
section.
Stub Spencer's work yesterday,
and especially his throwing. sug-
gested that If anybody was called
In Stub ought to be 1t. The catch
ers have their ups and downs like
pitchers, but there is little excuse
for continued bad throwing to
bases. The crowd is there to see
them throw right when there is
need of 1t.
There is bound to be a big kick
IL Brown does not manage 1t so as
to have all his heavy hitters work
ing. The baseball public sees lit
tie enough hitting at best, and to
have q man who can hit on the
bench when hit Is needed Is less
forgivable than an error of judg.
ment in the field.
Connors yesterday demonstrated
one of the reasons why he was
taken off first base. Frary called
a couple of strikes on him shat
Connors didn't like. He began to
sulk and deliberately struck out on
the next one. This sort of thing
NEARLY demoralized the infield
when Connors was part of IL. But
they surely like to see the old boy
come to the plate when hit is
needed.
