Judge Chase Hearing Case Against Eu
gene Hook for kidnapping
His Girl Wife.

WOODSTOCK. Sept. IA hearing
is in progress here before Judge Harrie
r. Chase in the case of Mrs. Eugene
Hook of Chelsea. Hook is out on bail
on a charge of having Kidnapped his wife.
Mrs. Hook was Emma Bagley, young
girl, who. awhile ago was committed to
the custody of the Board of Charities and
probation
She was placed in the home of fam
lily and apparently liked her surroundings
until one night she disappeared.
1t developed later that she had elOped
with Hook. 1t appears, however. that
Hook was accompanied by the girls
father who gave his consent to their mar
riage. The girl was committed to the
industrial school.
Attorney Hale X. Darling has brought
habeas corpus proceedings in an effort
to have the girl released. The proceed
ingS will determine the relative weight
of authority of the Board of Charities
and probation and that of a parent.

similar schemes that have preceded 1t

With the death of State Senator X. A.

A commission authorized by the last

the new state has not been appointed, and
doubt has been expressed that it ever Will

One new element recently injected into
the discussion is that of taxation. The
tax rate in Washington is much higher

fears have been voiced that this would
deter Idaho tax payers from favOring the

after having served four months in. the
Russian jails. Some of his experiences

stead.

anything to confess or not, they are com
manded to reveal the truth.
The cOmmlssar puts revolver TO the
prisoners head confess, or III shoot he
says. The prisoner waits for the shot.
He never knows whether it is coming or
not.
This process is often repeated until
the prisoner will confess rather than UNI
dergo any further ordeals, in which case
he is shot anyway.
The mental condition of these prison
erS becomes such that they would prefer
death, said DIR. fucker The Brooklyn
