8 CRIME Lin) BARE Boise, Idaho, Reporter Uncovers a Remarkable Deception. REMAINS OF A GIRL EXHUMED AHserted She Died of Diphtheria, but v Examination Shown Crimi nal Assault. Special to The Journal. - Boise, Idaho, April One of the most diabolical crimes in the history of this state has come to light at Payette. It has developed that the 9-year-old daughter of 'Mr. and Mrs. James HuJl, who live there, «waa .ravished, either being murdered to conceal that crime or dying from the ef fects' of the criminal assault. The crime -was committed at Baker City, Oregon, last 'July. Although officers have , done some •work on the case, the facts have never been published before. '.- Investigation of the case by a reporter at Payette has aroused the people to a 'frame of mind that would mean summary proceedings could the guilty wretch be lo cated. The girl, Delia Fay Hull, went to , visit at Baker City accompanying some friends who had beqp visiting at her home. She stopped at the boarding house of the 'Virtue mine .near Baker, which was kept by a woman named Mrs. Jacks, who has a doubtful refutation. In two weeks the girl's mother wrote from Payette asking ■her to come home. Mrs. Jacks replied for .her that she was having a good time and ■would be home soon. Other letters to the girl were also answered by Mrs. Jacks all stating that the girl would be sent home soon. Like a thunderclap finally came a telegram signed R. H. Butler say ing: "Come immediately; your daughter Fay is dying." ■ It has since been learned she was dead •when the telegram was sent. Mrs. Hull "went to Baker at once, being told on her arrival that her daughter was dead. It was stated that she had died from diph theria, although the mother had never been advised of any illness. The mother was not allowed to handle the body, which was embalmed. A physican's cer tificate signed by Dr. Atwood, of Baker City, was obtained that the girl had died from diphtheria, this being necessary in "order to have the coffin sealed for trans portation without arousing suspicion. Butler, who told - Mrs. Hull ■ he was the foreman at the Virtue mine, and Mrs. Jacks accompanied the body and Mrs. Hull home. .Butler never left the unopened casket until it was lowered into the grave. He returned to Baker after paying all the expenses of preparing the body for burial and transporting it to Payette.. His actions aroused the suspicions of Dr. A. T. Kimball, who with Dr. Ira R. Wood ward, local doctors, exhumed the body. .They found absolutely no evidence of the girl having died from diphtheria, but they Sound unmistakable proof that she had been ravished. The result of the autopsy was laid before District Attorney White at Baker City, who has not as yet called it to the attention of the grand jury. The natter was effectually hushed up until in vestigated at the instance of the Boise Statesman. The father of the girl is ac cused of having accepted hush money. He denies it. He has not worked, however, since he returned from a trip to Baker City shortly after the funeral. Before that he supported his family by manual labor. , j The name of a prominent mining man, and the names of others, will be called to the attention of the authorities, as steps are being taken in this state to force a thorough official Investigation in Oregon. While it is possible, according to the theory of officers in Idaho, that the man Butler knows all about" the crime, the prominent part he played precludes the idea of his being a principal. It is thought he was- jut forward as a shield for the real culprit." The girl, though only in her tenth year, •:. was a. handsome child and large for .her age. •- ~/. * .„-,,..? ;.'.....,;..

D., April B.—A story is float ing around that the state auditor will re fuse to pay the appropriation for the Springfield normal building fund on the ground that the bill making the appro priation was defectively drawn. The title of the bill shows the place where the money is to be expended, and there has never been any intimation that the state auditor could refuse to issue vouchers. The board of regents asked the attorney general for an opinion before authorizing expenditures under the act, and has re ceived an opinion to the effect that while the bill is somewhat imperfect, it is plain as to the place where the money is to be used, and the people of Springfield will find no trouble on that score. Governor Herreid authorizes a state ment to the effect that no appointments for the code commission have been con sidered as yet, and that none will be made inside of thirty days, if they are made that soon. Governor Herreid has appointed as fish and game wardens: For Edmunds county, Seny H. Beach of Bowdle; Moody county, Melvin A. Davis of Plandreau; Roberts county, Renler H.

Wis., April S.—Mrs. Michael Chart of the town of Lake and her 7 year-old daughter, Mary, were drowned in the Kinnikinnie river: Mrs. Chart, accompanied by her hus band and daughter, had been visiting friends and started for home at about 3 o'clock in a light, top buggy, drawn by a young, nervous horse. As they neared the bridge, which was open for repairs, the hor&e became frightened by a passing train and ran away, plunging over the embankment into the river, dragging the buggy and its occupants with It. Mr. Chart, who had been thrown out of the buggy as it went over the embankment, was saved, a policeman throwing a rope to him and hauling him ashore, but th<; mother and daughter were caught by the buggy top and carried to the bottom of the river and were drowned, as was also the horse. The bodies were recovered. Pullman Tourist Sleeper to Califor nia -via the Sunshine Route—C, M. & St. P. Ny?
