DeVaIera S Note
To Premier Is
Noncommital

Dublin, Aug. 12.-The letter
from Eamonn DeValera, Irish re-
publican leader, delivered to. Pre-
mier Lloyd-George yesterday, is
neither an acceptance nor a re-
lection of the Irish peace propos-
ais, 1t was learned here today. The
letter raises various questions to
which an answer is necessary.
The answer may serve to facili-
tate future dealings, 1t was said,
and is not expected to lead to a
break in negotiations.
There was no excitement in
Dublin today over Mr.. Lloyd
Georges return from Paris, as 1t
was said that no unexpected de-
velopment had occurred in the
Irish discussions. When Mr.. De-
Valera left London, 1t was recall
ed today by Irish leaders, the
statement was given out thaG a
basis had not been found for fur
ther conferences. and 1t was
stated in Irish circles that the
time since Mr.. DeValera's conver-
sations with the British prime
minister merely had been spent
In trying to find this basis. II has
not yet been found, 1t was added.

Hubby ACCUSES
Wife Of Trying
To Poison Him

Charging that her husband ac-
cused her of trying to poison him
and basing her claims for divorce
on cruel and inhuman treatment,
Rena Jackson, filed suit in the
circuit court this afternoon
against Ben jamin F. Jackson, now
a resident of Clackamas county.
Mrs. Jackson states in her COM
plant that her husband after a
trip to California from which he
returned after six months abb
sence, refused to eat breakfast un-
til he had washed all the dishes
with hot water, fearing that she
was attempting to poison him, and
that on previous occasions he had
refused to touch food which she
prepared for him, or inhabit the
same room. She also claims that
he has several times insisted on a
separation and that he had made a
division of the property to which
she refused to consent.
The couple were married in
1890 in Washington county, Ida
no, and have been residents OF this
county for the last 10 years. They
have five children, all grown.

II was In the evening OF the
day this letter was written that
Hightower led the police and a
group OF newspaper men to the
grave.
Internal Machine Found.
A search of IIightower's room
disclosed pieces OF bloody burlap
rifle and a contrivance described
by the police as an internal ma
chine" This was so adjusted that
ten shells loaded with buckshot
might be fired simultaneously by
pulling a string. Hightower ad-
mitted to the police he had taken
this with him on his preliminary
tour of investigation TO the Saiada
Beach district where the grave was
located. He did not disclose his
purpose.
1t has been found that High
tower had rented a typewriter and
the police are comparing the type
with a typewriter letter demand
ing $4,000 reward for information
of Rev. Heslin.
The records Of the La Frebre
Auto Sales company here disclose
that on August 2, about @ o'clock,
a few hours before the priest left

pany with an unidentified strang-
er, Hightower had taken from the

what the priest believed as sick

morning Of the following day.
The police today continued their
search for Dolly Mason and for
Doris Shirley.
Hightower broke down and
sobbed this morning when shown
a delayed telegram telling OF the
death of his wife in saltwater,
Okla. This was the first emotion
he has displayed during the i'm
quiry, the police said.
The telegram was sent from
Saltwater on July A by Mrs. Laura
McClain, a sister OF Mrs. High

had been unable to locate him un-

turned over to the San Francisco

to Rev. Murphy, Sacramento
