PORTLAND. Whitley "A
NOTED CRIMINAL DEAD
BLEW UP SAFE IN WALLACE
PoSToFFlcE-ciVEN LONG
PRISON TERM.

The Oregonian last Saturday records
the death OF Fred Love, better known
through his criminal career as Port
land Whitley" 1t was he who with a
confederate blew up the safe in the
Wallace postoffice in 1905, from which
they obtained about 5000 and would
have gotten several hundred more ii
they had not been disturbed before
completing the job. Love was cap
tured at Occur d'Alene several weeks
later, brought to Wallace for trial and
was sentenced to long term in the
penitentiary. He escaped after a short
time in the pen, but was recaptured.
After several years a loathsome dis
ease with which he was afflicted made
it impractical to care for him in prison,
and as it appeared that he had only q
short time to live he was released up
on the assurance of Portland relatives
and friends that he would be cared for
and that he would not return to his
criminal career. 1t is evident that the
guarantee for good conduct was not
kept, and also that the condition Of
Whitley was not as serious as repre-
sented, for he was a few years later
wounded in another BURGLARY job in
Portland. In publishing the news Of
his death the Oregonian says:
Honorable Outlaw"
Fred Love, yegg whom police de-
tectives term one of the most honora-
bic outlaws they ever met, and a relic
of the old school of safe burglars, died
early yesterday morning at st. Vim
cents hospital. He was 81 years old
and death was caused indirectly by a
bullet wound he received two years
ago and which he steadily refused to
explain at any time.
Detectives Coleman and Collins.
who have utilized the greater part of
their time in the police department in
solving safe burglaries yesterday re-
counted some of their experiences with
Love. Coleman said he had never
known Love to tell a lie or to "squeal"
on an accOmplice, and apostrophized
the yegg as one of the squarest ever
known in the so-called safe blowing
Blew Safe in Wallace.
Love had served time in the peni- |
tentiaries of Washington and Idaho |
and had been incarcerated in more |
iails than he could name during his /
career According to the detectives Re
first began to work about 1900 when
he blew a safe at Wallace, Idaho, and
got away with several thousand dol
ars He was later arrested and SEN
fenced to Is years of imprisonment.
1.-TWO years ago he was found lying
IN lawn in South Portland shot
through the back, and physicians said
he could not live. Detective Coleman
attempted to get him to tell who had
shot him. Tom" Love retorted,
you've known me a good many years
md you know I've never SWITCHED on
man yet" So, although the shot
rippled him for the rest of his life,
owe never revealed who fired it,"

 ASPHALT BOUGHT

 One of the unusual features the picture presents is the training of a Broadway Beauty Chorus for the an- nuaI opening of the Fo1lies ;and the renowned MT: Flo ,zieggfeld has been nard Randall accomplished screen actor, plays the role of the beauty connoisseur with gifted ability.
 The leading man is Kenneth liar Ian who filled a similar role in Miss Talmadge's previous pictures.
