tective engaged by the National

Judge Marker who was conducting
a murder trial, reprlmanded the pros
ecutor for interrupting, but Mr.. Baker
persisted, and, snatching a club from
policeman, threatened Foster. The
court drew Baker away and Judge
Marker ordered him to appear in
court tomorrow to show cause why
he should not be held in contempt.
The Judge took no cognzance of
the charge against Foster.
Immediately after the incident Mr..
Baker was subpoenaed 20 appear to-
morrow before the federal grand jury
to testify in the governments dyna-
mitipg case.
The incident between Mr.. Baker
and Foster was the result of the fric-
tion between the prosecutor and Fos-
ter's superior, Walter Drew. counsel
for the Erectors' association. Drew
had said Baker had been negligent in
pressing the investigation locally and
Baker resisted the effort of Drew and

Employcs VIII Likely Have Some
Money Christmas.

Unless something unexpected turns
up today, the attaches of the superior
court of Tulsa county will receive
a nice Christmas present in the form
Of salary checks for the past three
months. Special Judge Warren d.
Abbott, sitting in the superior court
yesterday afternoon, took up the APP
pealed salary claims of the court at
taches and ordered that County Clerk
Curran Immediately issue county
warrant for the amount of money due
them.
The court order will be served on
the county clerk today, and it is ex-
pected that he viii obey the order,
rather than be cited for contempt Of
court.
Nearly a year ago today the fight
between the county commissioners
was started. and this action Of the
superior court attaches, coming as 1t
did, just few days before. II is con-
fidently expected that the state eu-
preme court will hand down a decls-

full Judge, proved a complete surprise
for everyone concerned.
Claims Run From August.
The claims passed upon yesterday
were for total of S1.S31.2S, appor-
toned as follows: Three months SAL
airy for Judge Breckenridge, three
months salary for Clerk M. f. Cline,
four months salary for Deputy Clerk
Oscar Frye, and the salary of Bailiff
Wilder for 150 days at 81 per day.
The claims run from the month Of
August to the first day of Decem-
ber.
The board of county commissioners
was represented at the hearing by
County Attorney Malloy, who acqui-
osced entirely in the action and took
occasion to state that he believed

court. The county commissioners be-
lieving that the appointment or a

Was Not Questioned.

When Rlcheson came out from un-
der the influence of the anesthetic
he had nothing to say. BY order of
the surgeons he was not questioned
by anyone and will be kept quiet until
he gains strength.
The crime charged against Rich
eson, who formerly was pastor OF the
Emmanuel Baptist church of Cam
bridge, is the murder Of Avis Linnell
on the night OF October IA. Miss Lin
nell was 10 years old, was n native
of Hyannis. where Rieheson formerly
preached. and was studying at the
New England Conservatory of Music
In this city. Miss Linnell was found
dying in a bath room in the Young
Women's Christian ASSOCIATION build
ing where she lodged. At first It was
believed that the young woman had
taken poison with suicidal intent but
day or two later It became known
that she had taken cyanide of potas-
stun I'm the belief that 1t would rem
edy her condition.
Investigating into the death Of Miss
Llnnell, the police found evidence
which they claimed tended to incrim-
mate Rlcheson. and he was arrested
October 90 at the home of Miss Vio-
let Edmands, to whom he was to have
been married on October 81. His in
dictment followed.

the Murder of His Young

BOSTON, Mass, Dec. 20.-Cries and
gIoans breaking the stiffness Of the
early morning hours at the county
Jail today led to the discovery that
the Rev. Clarence V. n. Richeson,
awaiting trial on the charge Of having
murdered Miss AWE Llnnell, had mu-
tilated himself severely with a piece
of tin. So serious was the wound that
1t was found necessary to perform an
operation Immediately. Later In the
day the surgeons said the operation
was entirely successful and that unless
blood poisoning developed the pris-
oner would probably recover within
two weeks.
County authorities, jail officials and
counsel for Richeson all refused to
comment on any possible mental proc
esses which led the accused man to
the determination to injure himself, or
what influence his act might have
upon future legal proceedings In his
case.
