JURY FINDS
NO CLUE TO
MURDERER

Testimony at the inquest held
by Coroner Stewart Saturday
morning in the case of T. w.
Bethel, the negro who was found
dead in the Perkins building Fri
day morning, brought out the
fact that the man whom Bethel
had struck over the head with
his cane, presumably the murder
err, had light brown hair, and
therefore could not have been a
negro.
The jury's verdict was that
Bethel came to his death from
gunshot wounds at the hands of
an unknown person"
Police officer John Ellison
told the coroner he had found
Bethel's hat lying near his body.
The officer measured the dis
lance with Bethel's cane, which
was a heavy, wooden stick, and
found 1t to be three feet.
The other hat was lying farther
away and to one side, and was
cut as IL 1t had been struck with
the cane. Hanging to the edges
of the cut we're the hairs, which
he described as being an inch or
two in length.
o. F. Hudson, a newsboy in the
Ledger mailing room, told of hav-
ing seen Bethel arguing with a
white man, and hearing him cry,
Don't you follow me-" as he
made for the shelter Of the build
ing. Cyril Wilson, another mall
ing room employee, told of chas-
ing two of the four men who ran
out OF the building after the shot,
and Cliff Osborne, driver of the
patrol wagon, said newsboy told
him he saw two men run south
ON A street and turn down an al
lev by Tebbetts' store.
DR.. W. B, McCreery, who was
called to attend Bethel, testified
that one bullet went through the
mans lungs and one through his
abdomen.

A note addressed to Mrs. Wall

the mystery connected with the
death OF Ed w. Lowe, whose body
was found early Saturday morn
ing at his home. GIG South An

The note was to Blanche
who apparently had been living
in the house, and definitely estab-
lished the fact that Lowe commit

"Dear Blanche," IL said,
"This Is where l leave you.

missed you, but You caused
me to do this through worry.

The letter was marked person

Until this letter was found it
was believed the man might have
been the victim of a murder. The
body was so decomposed that 1t
was impossible for the coroner to
tell how he came by his death.
Lowe formerly worked at The
Mint saloon, 1926 Pacific avenue,
where he tended bar.
Another note from blanche"
indicated that she left him some
time ago, and that worry over
their quarrel caused him to end
his life.
This note said: :

of man than to break my
trunk open. I wouldn't do
that to you. So now good
bye forever. II Is hard, but

the date, June Is, 1916. He had
$1.50 and gold watch on his
person.
Careful search of the house was
made by the police in response to
telephone calls from residents in
the neighborhood.
First examination indicated
that the man had been dead for
at least two weeks. The body
was badly decomposed.
The body was found undressed,
in a bed. All indications were
that the man had ended his life
by poison.

"A party or masrerly inactiv-

SEATTLE, Sept. 2.-Will E.
Humphrey, candidate for U. s.
senator. is in a bad hole over his
connection with the Seattle post
office duck pond swindle,
through which treasury depart
ment officials say the govern
ment was swindled out of nearly
$1,000, 1000.
He's in so bad that it looks as
If he'd never get out. Even the
support of his best friends has
dropped out from under.
Humphrey bit off more than he
could chew at his meeting in
Bremerton Wednesday night,
when he flung a challenge to The
Seattle Star.
In trying to make another de-
NAL of his connection with the
duck pond deal, Humphrey made
the statement that he would for
felt $1,000 to charity and with
draw from the race II it could be
proved that he ever recommend
ed the site.
Nobody Goes to Jail.
He also made the statement
that The Star never had had the
courage to charge that he directly
influenced the selection of the
frog pond site, and that II The
Star ever did make that asser-
ton he would put an editor in
jail within a hours!
Next day The Star called both
bluffs right off the bat. In clear
terms it repeated the charges.
"You did try to influence the /,
purchase of the SITE" said The
Star. but maybe you haven't any
influence, therefore you could
not use 1t directly or otherwise"
II is more than "a hours, con-
more, since The Star
called Humphreys bluff. And
still nobody has gone to jail.

BY Mabel Abbott

''My boy will have to have
an operation because of a
whipping given him by the
principal of a Tacoma
schoil five years ago.
"Don't You ladies think
the school board should pay
for the Operation?"
A quiet little woman dropped
this question like a bomb into
the close of the meeting of the
Tacoma Mothers Congress at
the Central school Friday.
The mothers had spent the
session, which was the first OF
the school year, in informal
plans for the work of parent
teacher circles, and were adj
journing, when Mrs. Henry G,
Powers, 1922 South 43rd street,
asked to be heard. 4,
II want to ask you," she said
Ito tell me what is right to dc
about my boy.
The man, who was principal
of a Tacoma schOol rive years
ago, whipped Arthur so the boy
was ruptured, and has had to
wear q truss ever since.
Arthur. was only ii years old
then. and the doctors said he
ought not to have an operation
at that time; but now he will
have to have one or go through
life the way he Is.
II took 1t up with the prose-
cutting attorney at the time, but
nothing was done about 1t. The
was entirely unjusti-
fled, and my boy has been in
jured for life. The man has
since been made high official
in the school system.
Don't you think II would
be only right for me to ask
the school board to pay for
