Portland, Ore., Oct. 30.—The federal grand jury returned an indictment in the United States district court that brings to light for the first time details of what was probably a double murder. The indictment is against Norman Wil liams on a charge of forgery in affixing a false signature of Miss Alma Nesbitt to the relinquishment for a homestead claim in Wasco County, butu nder-j neath the entire precedure lies strong circumstantial evidence that a murder followed the forgery to cover up the detection of the crime. The matter was brought before the grand jury by United States Inspector A. R. Green, of the in terior department. 1 Years ago Nofmfirt Williams and Miss Alma Nesbitt were friends in Omaha, Neb., and came west together. They took up adjoining homesteads in Wasco and lived there about a year. 1'hen Mrs. Nesbitt, mother of Alma Nesbitt, came west. In March, 1900. Williams met Mrs. Nesbitt and daugh ter at Hood River and started to drive them to their homestead some twenty miles distant. After leaving Hood River the women, were never seen again and officials believe that they were murder ed. The case attracted much attention at the time and their disappearance has ever since remained a deep mystery l'h federal authorities have been looking for Williams for some time. It is sup posed that he is somewhere in Canada. The federal grand jury also returned in dictments against Emma L. Watson and Guy Huff for conspiracy, arid forgery in connection with land frauds in this state. 1 :w.:^ A3d •H W3. «.v A WfcWgPP fllrj Secured Verdict ^gainst Former Lover. Grand Rapids, Mich., Oct.

STILL A MYSTERY. Pittsburg, Oct. 30.—The veftlfcft of the coroner's jury on the death of ex City Recorder Joseph Owen Brown was reachcd this evening after fourteen sittings. The jury finds that Brown came to his death March 15. 1903, from poison administered by some unknown person or persons. The death of Re corder Brown occurred a few days after his resignation as city recorder at the close of a year's bitter factional fighting local politics. There Were vague ru mors of suicide at the time, but the death was generally attributed to a col lapse from overwork and mental stress. The suicide rumors, however, reached the ear of J. R. P. Brown, of Nebraska, a brother of the deceased, and he came here to investigate and on April 2Q -V.

After the post mortem the vital organs were sent to Philadelphia for a chemical analysis. On June the inquest proper was taken up and has continued at intervals ever since. Ex-Recorder Brown left an estate of considerable value in which his wife, from whom he had been separate! several nephews and some close friends were made beneficiaries by his will. The verdict of the coroner's jury leaves the case about where it has been all along, beyond officially determining the Cause of death. 1 AN INTERRUPTED RHAPSODY: une:' ?/v: The leaves all spread about belowJ The-trees—(by gosh, I'll have td*go And rake the lawn!) .s w Oh,: AutuVnn, thou art more than ,f«sr, The frost that sprinkles thy softiJftir, Now white, now gone, •. -g But lends thee rare beauty yet• •, v U guess it's nearly time t«r^et.
