for the rental Of space ia the building

gonAe New Reasons.
Some OF the reasons advanced in
favor Of new quarters are that the
present rooms are not well adapted to
the needs Of the secretary's Office and
are not large enough 70 accommodate all
the meetings of the Chamber. It has
been proposed that one of two courses
be pursued, either 10 place the Offices
of the Chamber in an office building and
hold the meetings Of the Chamber IN
a rented hall, or TO secure quarters spe-
cially arranged in one OF the new build
ings being erected, which shall be sps-
cialIy arranged for the convenience and
use OF the body.
II was the sense OF the directors that
one of these courses be pursued. and
the house committee was directed to
continue its search for better quarters
and to remain In F street until such
rooms could be either found or built for

The elopement of Phllander C. Knox

in Washington.
It was the second elopement in the
family within the last few years Sew
eral years ago Reed Knox. who is now
private secretary to his father, ran off
to Alexandria. Va. and was married TO
Miss Elizabeth MoCook, of this city. His
father was at that time Senator from
Pennsylvania. He did not show any
opposition to Reed Knox's sudden mar

MONTESANO, May 9.-To the
surprise of the crowd in attendance
at the Gohl trial, the prosecution
closed the testimony for the state
this morning. and the defense will
begin taking evidence this afternoon.
1t is rumored that the defense will
try to establish an alibi, and, it is
said several witnesses will swear
that on the fatal night of December
21, last, William Gohl was present
at a meeting of the lodge of the
Foresters of America in Aberdeen.

continuing when someone called him.
During the cross examination it
was attempted to make McHugh
admit that he had demanded $1,000
not to appear as witness for the
state. McHugh emphatically denied
this.
The defense also asked him if it
was not true that Gohl had deposit
ed 1926 with him belonging to the
sailors union, which had never been
returned. This also brought empha-
tic denial from the witness who de-
clared that Gohl had often left mon
ey with him over night but that it
had always been returned. McHugh
said further the 1926 mentioned had
been demanded of him recently al
though it had never been left with
him.
Gohl and Klingenberg had gone
down the bay in the launch Patrol,
and several of the witnesses had
heard the shots and cries believed to
have been at the killing of Hoffman
while off the Hulburt mill 1t was
proved that Gohl and Klingenberg
were down the harbor that night and
were seen in South Aberdeen the next
morning, and that two days after the
murder, Gohl went down to the Had
berg cabin and removed the belong
ings of the murdered man, and told
the men living in the vicinity that
he had sent Hoffman and Hadberg
to Alaska, where they had secured
positions with lighthouse at SIS
month.
The prosecution will probably get
in all it's testimony tomorrow and it
is expected here that the case will
be given into the hands of the jury
by Wednesday evening or Thursday
morning.

the building of a large refuse burner
and the almost complete rebuilding
of large portion of the mill.

MONTESANO. May S.-When the
Gohl case in the superior court was
adjourned at four O'Clock yesterday
afternoon, the prosecution had fin
ished the third day of witness exam
nations for the state. and the re-
suit is a Tightening of the coils of
the law about William Gohl to an ex.
tent his appearance seems to indicate
he fully realizes. Thus far the case
against the accused murderer shows
! that great care has been taken in
marshaling' the evidence, and that
nothing is being left to chance.
Seven witnesses were called to
prove the indentity of the body of
Charles Hadberg, with whose murder
Gohl stands charged, and this was
done so thoroughly as to leave abso-
| lutely no room for doubt. In this
indentification, Undertaken S. A.
Randolph produced a gruesome wit
ness, in the shape of a section ef en-
balmed flesh cut from the arm OF
Hadberg's body, upon which was a
large tattoo mark, showing a red rose
and red heart pierced with daggers
with the initials, III. H." (Herman
Hadberg). Several of the witnesses
recognized the mark, and all had ex.
amined the body of the man they

and at the suggestion of that organi-
zation did some clever detective work
on the case. He first told Mayor
Benn of the double murder, but the
police and county attorney seemed
unwilling to believe the story. Sew
eral trips were made to the point
where the body of Hadberg was said
to lie, without result, and but for one
of those occurrences termed provi-
Dental, that left the body slightly
exposed while George l.. Lightfoot
was passing in his boat, the crime
might yet have been undiscovered.
McHugh swOre that Gohl told him
the night of December 21, that he
(GohD would leave that night to go
down the bay to kill Hoffman and
Hadberg and that he and Klingen-
berg were going down together and
that they would get Hadberg the
morning of December %.
"Gohl met me afterward,' de-
clared McHugh, "and said: We have
landed those fellows. Johnny King
enberg and l killed Hoffman and
Hadberg. We planted the bodies in
the waters of Grays Harbor with
anchors for pillows"
McHugh said that Gohl then went
on to tell how Hoffman was a
tough one to kill' and Gohl was
