POSSES CLOSING
IN ON ROBBERS

Wenatchee, Wash, June L.
Hunted all night like wild ami
mails in the brush, two OF the three
robbers who held up the bank at
Loomis yesterday are being hem
med in by band of sheriff's dep
uties, cattlemen and Canadian
mounted police on Black mountain
near Richter's Pass today. Their
case is hopeless, only the slightest
chance for escape remaining.
Three hundred dollars was taKen
in the robbery. One of the men,
named LeLievre of Kermos, b. c.,
was captured Wednesday after
noon at the Canadian border.
The men entered the bank at
$3.50 Wednesday afternoon, the
bank being in charge of young
Knosher, son of the cashier. The
holdups threatened to shoot him
unless he opened the safe but be
explained that his father was
away and that he did not have the
com bination and finally succeeded
in talking them out of shooting
They then locked him in the vault
At this time Professor Witt came
in the bank and was caught, gag
ged and tied after being relieved
of his cash. The robbers then
locked the door and started north
in their automobile.

COURT DECISION
Wv Will - ~uu
~
HAL is WORK ON !
POLK HIGHWAYS

Dallas, Ore, June Circuit
Judge Percy r. Kelly has filed a
decision, not only holding that the
county cannot use fits market road
fund to build the West Side Pacific
highway south OF Monmouth, but
also holding that the original law
routing the highway through Dali
las and independence is, in his
opinion. the law Of the state.
Judge Kelly, at the instance of
Ernest Zielesch and other farmers
living south of Independence,
grants a permanent injunction
against the county court, all other
county officials, and the state
highway commission, preventing
the construction of the highway
south of Monmouth under an
agreement made between the Polk
county court and the highway
commission.
Money Wrongly Used
Under this agreement the coun-
ty court turned over to the high@
way commission $4,000 in cash
from the market road fund, and In
addition agreed to pay the balance
of the estimated cost of $118.000
in four yearly installments. The
judge holds that this action is
Illegal because the county con-
tracted an Indebtedness in excess
of the legal limit. This agreement
came after series of lawsuits be-
tween residents of the county and
the state highway commission, and
was in the nature of compromise.
Citizens of Independence interest
ed themselves in the matter, and
secured the assistance of the farm
ers mentioned, who took the case
into court. Judge Kelly was sas-
signed to hear the case, and some
time ago listened to the argu-
ments, the facts being admitted.
Location Once Decided
In the memorandum accompany
ing the decision Judge Kelly says
that the court did not feel it neces-
sary to decide the question as to
the location of the highway. He
points out that the circuit court
Of Multnomah county upheld the
law requiring the road to run
!, through Dallas and Independence
and that this decision not having
!, been reversed carries with it all
the force of a supreme court
decision.
In its entirety the decision car
, be said to uphold the position tax.

though. I'm willing to die" The
dead mans brother, Charles Ban
CERT. of Dayton, Ohio. against
whom the gun wielder also
brought verbal indictments, also
was permitted to see his brother.
Last night Charles Bangert was in
state of nervousness nearing col
lapse.
On several occasions, IL was
said, Bangert had charged his
wife with being unfaithful. Neigh
bors and Melvin Gruenfelder, the
wounded girls brother, admitted
that the reported domestic infe-
licity at the Bangert household
had long been common knowl-
edge among those residing in the
vicinity.
Met on Highway
The shooting took place on the
Silverton highway about six
miles from Salem and about one
mile from the Bangert ranch
house which is located on a side
road. west OF the highway. Mrs.
Bangert, wife of the wounded
man, Clara Gruenfelder and Mel
vim Gruenfelder had elected to
motor to Salem in Gruenfelder's
car.
According to Gruenfelder. the
party was nearing the Silverton
highway when 1t met Bangert.
Without comment he began to
Fshoot. Gruenfelder speeded up the
car and attempted to make a get
away, but as the machine swung
on to the highway 1t threw tire
and IL was necessary for the occu-
pants to abandon the automobile
Gruenfelder made his way short
distance down the lane on the
other side of the highway while
the two women rushed into the
nearby farm house of Chester #,
Way.
Two Bullets Hit Girl
Bangert, who apparently had
no quarrel with Gruenfelder, fol-
lowed close in the wake Of the
two women, flourishing his gun
as he went. Entering the front
door the women locked 1t behind
them but Bangert, breaking thru
a window, gained entrance. Pur-
suing them into the back yard he
cornered them and it was then
that the little Gruenfelder girl
who had whirled and faced Ban
CERT, dropped as victim of his
automatic.
Two bullets entered her body
one through her right breast ant
the other through the center q
her chest.
Takes Own Life
! Bangert, abandoning his pur
suit of the women, returned t.
the highway where, for ipameu
he stood undecided, gun in hand
At this point Bert Smith, a dep
uty sheriff who had previousl.
been notified Of the gun play b,
frightened residents of the com
munity, arrived on a motorcycle
Bangert raised the .S2 Colt
and leveled it at the officer. H
said nothing. Smith sped past
short distance, dropped from hi
machine and covered his man.
Then, apparently concluding
that resistance would prove fu
tile, Bangert raised the gun to hi
own left breast and fired. A fev
minutes later he was removed t
the hospital where he lived 70
two hours. Only portion of tn
time was he conscious but, durinl
7 these intervals, he appeared to b
entirely rational, doctors said.
