RISKED HIS LIFE SAVING OTHERS MAN FALLS OVER PRECIPICE 700 FEET Deputy Assessor of Alameda County Stays with Unmanageable Team and Is Hurled Down Moun. tain Side (By Associated Press.) CLOVERDALE, Col., Aug. -..—'Wil liam McDonald, a deputy assessor of Alameda county, who has been passing Ills vacation at McHae's hotel, went : over a precipice known as the Devil's .slide yesterday and fell a distance ot ! .00 feet down a steep mountainside into Sulphur creek, a tributary of the Russian river. Although terribly in jured, he was alive when rescuers went to tils assistance. Later McDonald was removed to the hotel, where physicians entertain some hope of bis recovery. McDonald's terrible fall was the re sult of his heroism In trying to save the lives of two women and a man who were riding with him a wagon along the Geyservllle road. They were Mr. nnd Mrs. John Cooley and a woman whose name has not been ascertained. The grade was steep and the horses be came unmanageable. Seeing that an accident was in evitable, McDonald called to his com panions to jump from the wagon be fore it was upset. This they did, all reaching places of safety. McDonald then leaped to the ground, but he had waited too long, for he' struck on a elope, down which he rolled to the edge of the cliff, over which he was pre cipitated to what seemed Instant death. That he -was not killed outright is re garded as marvelous. TINY BOATS WILL SERVE AS TARGETS FOR FLEET Deep Sea Drills of North Atlantic Fleet Include Gun Practice on Old Torpedo Vessels ODD POINT COMFORT, Va., Aug. 9. —When the giant battleships of the. North Atlantic fleet, now lying in Hampton roads, steam out for their deep sea drills, thirty miles oft the Vir ginia capes, they will take two little torpedo boats, probably to be shot to places. These tiny craft, the Nicholson and the O'Brien, among the oldest In the navy, am to serve as targets to ward which the massive guns of the -fifteen battleships are to hurl their tons of projectiles. Four of the ships, the Wisconsin, Kansas, Georgia and Mississippi, ■weighed anchor this afternoon and pro ceeded to the drill grounds. It will probably be the first of next week be fore all the ships proceed. livery pre caution has been taken to keep the targets afloat even after projectiles have hit them.

GREEK FLAG IN CRETE LOWERED CONTENDING NATION SENDS TURKEY FORMAL REPLY Note Says Greece Intends to Maintain Attitude of Neutrality with Re. gard to Cretan Island Neighbor f'AN'EA, Inland of Crete, Aug. B.— Greek flag which was run up over the fortrr*s anil the Cretan military bar rack* -in July '.., the day after the evacuation of the Island by the Inter national troops, -Mi- lowered today as a result of the protest* or troops of pro tecting powers. fRy Associated Press.] ATHENS?, Aug. 9.—The Green gov ernment today handed to the Turkish minister a formal reply to the porte's in, which ask. Greece to express her disapproval of the annexation agitation In Crete and formally to declare that she had no ambitions regarding the island. The reply reaffirms Greece's intention of maintaining an altitude of neutral ity with regard to Crete, but it de clares it would be beyond her lawful capacity or powers for Greece to make im announcement respecting the future, of Crete, which matter rests entirely with tin. protecting powers. The reply is a lengthy document. It protests formally against the com plaints contained in the Turkish note and gives Instances of Greece's con stant endeavor to maintain frank and friendly relations- with Turkey and to draw closer the bonds uniting the two count It recalls the enthusiasm with which the Greek element In Turkey worked for the triumph of the constitutional regime and points out that had Greece cherished the designs attributed to her she would have tried to profit by the trials against which the new Turkish government has been contending. In stead, the note declares, Greece has done and still wishes to do all in her power for the appeasement of Turkey and for peace. Also In the Cretan question the note continues the Turkish government it self has several times hail occasioln to proclaim that the conduct of Greece has been frank and loyal. Then, de claring that Greece can only leave the question of Crete to the protecting powers and conform to their decision, the note repeats the assurance that Greece, being in no way implicated In the annexationist movement In Crete, will preserve the same correct attitude that she has In the past. "We trust," the note says, "that these frank explanations will dissipate all misunderstandings and help to Inaugu rate Rn era of cordial and loyal rela tions between the two countries to their mutual advantage."

LOS ANGELES HERALD: TUESDAY MORNING, AUGUST 10, 1901). GRAND ARMY IS ASSEMBLING TO RECALL SIXTIES SALT LAKE SURRENDERS TO VETERANS 30,000 VISITORS ALREADY IN CONVENTION CITY I With Shrill of Fifes and Roll of Drums i Old Soldiers Gather to Renew Acquaintances — Political • Situation Watched '■ (By Associated Tress.) SALT LAKH CITY, Auk 0. The (irst day of the forty-third nation al encampment of the G. A. K. i found 30.000 veterans and visitors quar j tered In this city, with the prospect of | having their number Increased to 50,000 i by tomorrow morning. Drum and fife corps paraded the streets and at the various headquar ters bands furnished music. Many belated trains arrived tonight, and the problem of caring for their passengers was a serious one. Of the fourteen past commanders In | chief now living, lit '- are In attendance ;at the present reunion. They are Gens. j 8, S. Burdett of Washington, D. C, Eli Torrance of Minneapolis and John El. 'King of Baltimore, Corporal James Tanner of Washington, D. «'.. and 'ion. ; Charles G. Burton of Nevada, Mo. Political Camp Established A reception In honor of Commander in chief Nevius and the officers of Ills | staff was given by the Women's Relief I corps tonight at the rooms of the Com- I mercial club. Three thousand guests | were present. In the receiving line, besides Commander in chief Nevlus, were Senior Vice Commander .1 E. I Kent Hamilton of Hamilton, Ohio; Past Commanders in Chief Burton and i Torrance; Mrs. Mary E. Oilman, na tional president of the W. It. C„ and Genevieve Longfield Lane, national president of the Ladies of the O. a. h The political side of the encampment was made prominent through the open ing of headquarters of the rival claim < ants for coming honors. The indications are that the light be tween St. Louis and Atlantic City for ! the next encampment Is to he- warmly i contested. i For commander In chief former (,ov ernor Van San. of Minnesota and W. L. Ketcham of Indiana continue to he the active candidates, Friends of la. T. Dlekersqn of Illinois urged him to seek the coveted honor, but he declined. In consequence, a sentiment in his behalf for 1913 is being developed. Southern States Represented Union veterans are least numerous j from the states south of the Mason and Dixon line, but every state of the late Confederacy has a delegation here. Louisiana and Mississippi have mus tered about fifteen veterans. Texas sends twenty. Georgia has furnished ! the largest delegation from the far 1 south. There are perhaps fifty negro vet erans at the encampment. Late In ti- afternoon a special tram from Kansas City debarked 250 citi gens, Including G. A. R. veterans, their wives, the Modoc Glee club of Topeka, and the Kills Union Pacific band. Their march from the Oregon Short Line depot to tlie headquarters attracted the undivided attention of the street | crowds. Members of th« Massachusetts dele gation. > -, strong, boast that their spe cial train outran a tornado near Kear ney, Neb., and can beat anything else that blows. ; BRONZE.BADGED VETERANS CLASP HANDS ONCE AGAIN SALT LAKE city. Aug. 3— The oc cupation of tlie city by the Grand Army of the Republic is complete, Coming in overwhelming force from all direc tions, the veterans have won every I strategical position and command all communications. On tlie program this is tlie lirst day of the forty-third encampment; in practice It Is a day of wholesale greet ing. Special trains are unloading their thousands of visitors. An enthusiastic welcome for all and special receptions j for officers of rank fill the hours, Ed i gar Allen, commander In chief of the I Pons of Veterans, is among the day's ! arrivals. He will be tendered a recep -1 tion by his organization this evening. The National Association of Army I Nurses found friends in countless num i hers. The first formal gathering wag i that of the Union ex-prisoners of war, ! who met in the Federation of Labor j hall at 10 o'clock. The national execu ; tive committee of this association will I meet at the headquarters of the com- I mander this evening. Badge Is Open Sesame White walled canvas villages are I springing up from the greensward of the parks, and the- boys of '61 will soon be playing the game of war un der a softened form of military rule. Scanning the sky for clews, the weath or observers have discovered Indlca tions ,if showers, and the most rad ical thermometers have been unable to detect an uncomfortable degree of heat. The beginning of the encampment at least find the army fanned by cool j mountain breezes and the summer sun in retreat. There is magic about ft five pointed bronze star suspend'-,I by a tiny flag I from a bronze bar which opens every door to it- wearer, clears his path in a den crow d, and wins for him anew the homage that may have been for ; gotten at times through the long years. If he boards a street car the magic emblem makes him tnvslble to the i conductor; should he travel to the lake or other resorts, the talisman blinds the gate keepers and the ticket takers to his presence. Old Scenes Are Recalled Salt Lake City is. for the time, the-, , port of missing comrades. Momentarily the lost are found; j hands lone; severed by distance and circumstances are clasped together the years roll away and the reunited i friends chatter again in the language I of youth. The railroads have poured their 1 heavy passenger traffic Into Salt Lake | with very few mishaps, and these of. [a trivial character. The veterans of I affiliated organizations are outnum bered by the' tourists aiui sightseers. I The arrivals yesterday --ere- estimate'! 1 jut loan. All who have come have been accommodated without difficulty, and there is still a large, supply of rooms ! upon which to draw. Two camp fires, one at Assembly hall In the Temple square, and the other at the- Armory, were attended by the Grand Army members tonight. Parade Stopped by Rain SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, Aug 9.— i The outdoor spectacle for the evening, j the parade of the Wizard of the Wa sat«h and his wards, was prevented by a heavy rain storm, which burst over the city Just as the procession was forming. The thousands who lined the streets awaiting the parade hur ried to shelter and the outdoor pro gram was declared off. Within a half hour the downpour ceased, but the decorations had suf fered serious damage. Hundreds of yards of bunting were discolored and thousands of flags hung limp and water soaked. ALWAYS IN CITY, SAYS N. OSWALD tCntitlnnert from rare Oils) | ward in the event of his coming out of hiding and giving his truthful testi mony to the facts of the redlight deal before the special grand Jury called in March, 1909. Oswald's testimony on direct examin ation was not shaken by the exhaustive cross-examination by Attorney Appel. Only once did the witness display the slightest confusion, and then quickly recovered himself. -\ppel tried every expedient that his somewhat unusual career has taught him in hi* efforts to break down the witness' stolid serenity and force front him admissions or seeming admissions that -would serve to discredit his testi mony in the eyes of the Jury. Oswald Sits Unruffled Sometimes he would Interrogate Os wald in a soft, coaxing vein: again he would resort to sneering sarcasm, ridi cule, or assume a threatening attitude as he would demand scornfully if the witness expected the jury to believe what he » as saying. Through it all Oswald sat quite un ruffled, seemingly but little Interested, but always careful, with an air of cau tiousness which was more than sug gestive of hi* life and business activ ity in the hidden haunts of vice. He did not seem to care In the least what the jury might believe. There never was a trace of anxiety In his j manner, and he rarely so much as i glanced at the Jury box. When he did it was with tli- 1 same- Indifference he' ha* shown toward all things in the course of the trial, with the single striking exception of his own revela tion of the manner In which he had kept a population wondering and de tectives at a cost of hundreds Of dol lars hunting feet- him everywhere that lie was not. Guilt Not Admitted Again and again the cross-examining I attorney made an effort to betray the witness Into some admissions of con scious guilt In connection with his deal- Ings iv prostitution, but It was here that he failed most signally. Dwelling on the fact that Oswald se cured the leases and titles to property use.l in establishing the redlight dis trict, through question after question, Appel sought to make his point, "Now, Mr. Oswald," lie would begin persuasively, "wasn't it because of your shame of conducting houses of prostitution, you, a married man with a child? Didn't you want to cover up I those dealings to avoid the public shame?" Promptly came the reply, with stolid ' Indifference: "I didn't care nothing about that, but 1 didn't want the lenses In my name because It might cause more talk against the district, and ag- ! itation to have it closed." That was it. "Nie-k" Oswald had no moral nature to protect from shame, but lie had a. business which had to be protected from public opinion. Deficient as the witness showed him self on the moral plane, beirg entirely unmoral instead of Immoral, and in capable of comprehending moral con ceptions, he displayed great shrewd ness in many little points. "Did you divide the profits of the cottages, run by you as houses of pros titution in 1907, with Sehenek, Harper and Kern?" asked Appel. "If you Include all three. I'll have to answer no," responded Oswald. Questions Involving disgusting details of Oswald's occupation were answered in the same unruffled manner us nil others, "I did," or, "Yes, sir." As calmly, too, he admitted his per jury before the grand jury of 1908, at a time when he thought perjury might serve to protect his interests In the underworld and enable him ultimately to reopen the redlight district. Once, when questioned regarding what lie had said about his income alter the closing of the redlight dis- i trict, and making a correction on i point which he- seemed to have for gotten, Oswald showed slight confu sion, but recovered while Attorney Appel was smiling bis triumph at his associate counsel. Wanted to "Get Even" The witness admitted going to K. T. Earl chiefly in a desire to "get even" with the men he felt to have treated him unfairly, but said he needed th.? money, too. for his friends who had made loans to him. "I did nut think Harper, Rt'lienck, Kern anil Ilrouillieiul hail lived up to their agree- ! ment," lie ml,I. "Yea, I wiis mad at them in a way. I thought they hail given me a ilirly shakedown nil around, ami I thought that by going to Karl and forcing Kern anil Harper to resign without anybody knowing why, I could get square with them am! at the same lime havo money to square up witli he friends that hail stood by me." Oswald said he demanded $15,000 or I $20,000 from Earl for the story, provided It was met made public, but only used to force Harper and Kern from office, but thought he ought to have $40,000 if the matter came to the surface, in the j end, he had agreed to accept $10,000, half of vhleh amount, he testified, had been paid him before his disappear- | ance, and the balance was to be paid | six months thereafter. ] A distinct change in the manner of the proceedings was seen yesterday, In i the free hand allowed Attorney Appel in his questions on cross-examination by the prosecution. In the entire day there were but six objections made lo questions asked, one by Captain Bro.id head, four by Deputy District Attorney Ford and one by Mr. Appel's associate, .1. W, Me Kiulee. . ten for gome tim hud appeared restless while the trial proceeded hour after hour without an Objection being made. . The trial will he resumed at 10 o'clock this morning.

GIRLS USED TO PICK OUT WIN NING ENVELOPES Prosperous Merchant of Myrtle Creek, Ore., Wins First Prize In Dlstrl. bution of Uncle Sam's Tracts [By Associated Press.) (4 OEUR D'ALENE, Idaho. Aug. 9.— When little Helen Hamilton, ' daughter of Mayor Boyd of Coeur Men.-, walked Into the middle of a pile of 105,000 yellow envelopes contain ing applications for land In the Coeur d'Alene Indian reservation this morn ing shortly after 10 o'clock the great land drawing on the three tracts of government land — the Flathead, the Coeur d'Alene and the Spokane Indian reservations was on. Several hundred people stood around the platform on which Judge James Witten of' Washington, D. «'.. formally opened the drawing on one of the last .if the big tracts of Uncle Bam. Unlike the rush In "squatter" days, the modern method of distributing the land moved along with th*. precision of clock work. When Miss Hamilton, daintily dressed in white, had plucked the first lucky envelope from the mass and handed it tee Judge Witten and the name of Isa dora Belig "i* Myrtle Creek. Ore., was I read aloud the gathering crowd begun to evidence Increased interest and quivering excitement, A faint cheer arose, In rapid order Miss Hamilton, aided by Miss Chrysttne Donlon and Miss Harriet Post, plucked the Other lucky envelopes from the pile, and mi n and women, now anxious to hear the verdicts In the first twenty envelopes crowded up to the platform where newspaper men and government clerks grabbed it the bits of news hearing names and started them throughout the land by -lee, wires running to the drawing stand. Girls Pluck Fortunes For two hours in the heat of a mid day sun the three little girls pranced over the pile of yellow- envelopes, pluck ing fortunes from among the pile of ap plications. , . Long before the drawing bean Judge Witten and his corps of officers an 1 clerks moved from place to place, put ting everything In readiness for the drawing. National colors gave the plat form a martial setting. Twenty cast iron cans, tightly sealed, were placed on the platform shortly before 10 o'clock and two men started to pry them open. Tlie carriages carrying the sponsors of the drawing, Misses Hamilton, Post and Donlon. arrived on the scene a few minutes before 10 o'clock, and the girls were hastily gathered around Judge Witten to be photographed. This pre liminary over, Judge Witten raised his hand and motioned for silence. In a few words he outlined the modern ; method of drawing for government lands and pronounced It emphatically not a land lottery. After giving any one present a chance to come to 'the platform and pick his envelope from the many, if he could, with the penalty of forfeiture of his chance. Judge Witten motioned to Harvey Ham, son of D. T. Ham, and George B. Canfleld, both of Bokane, to start the work of mixing the 106,006 envelopes with pitchforks. Envelopes Stirred Arduously From top to bottom and from side to Side the mass of envelopes was stirred and mixed, and at th% word from Judge Witten Miss Hamilton walked to the center of the platform and picked the first winner. The envelope was passed to Judge Witten, who In turn gave it to Miss Bernice Grefe, one of the government clerks, and not until she had cut it ! and passe l it on to Basel Witten, i daughter of Judge Witten, who took it I from the yellow covering and handed it ito Assistant Superintendent Elston, who In turn handed it to Judge Witten, who read the name and description aloud, was the name of the first person to draw the choice claim in the thousands of acres known. it was tho name of Isadora Belig of Myrtle Creek, Ore., who was not present at the draw ing. Two residents of Spokane, John Ped maik and Charles G. Cromwell, were tlie next to follow in the order named. At id juncture A. P. Ratteree of Lit ll. Rock, Ark., a professional "talker," was called to the platform and started the task of reading and crying "loud the 3000 names which will be drawn from the 105.000 applications. 'I".i keep the crowd, standing in the sun, in good humor. Judge Witten stopped the drawing at Intervals to joke with the women who drew claim* and to tell stories of his experience! In the land drawings of government res- I creations. Assistant Superintendent Ralston was the man behind the flashing of the news of the --inner to the- end of the land. As every envelope was opened tie- application was passed to him, af ter being duly numbered, and he read the names aloud, that the press repre sentatives could get accurate detail... I Tills phase of the draw ing disposed of. j messengers were dispatched with the ! valuable Blips and to the land office ,up town, and there a ore of clerks and stenographers began the work of TTstlng the names in numerical order i and posting them outside the land office.
