DRAWS ATTENTION
Tacoma Paper 8aya Suit of Mrt
Magnuuon ia Attracting
Much Notice
In an attempt to make a foun
dation on which to build up testi
mony showing joint responsibility
of Bishop Edward J. O'Dea, ol
the diocese of Nisaully, with the
representatives of the Catholic
church in Tacoma for the alleged
abduction of Marjorie Reiman,
Attorney Kelley, in the superior
court, went back to the famous
Council of Trent in the 10th cen
tury. Reference to this histori
cal council of representatives of
the Catholic church that followed
the Reformation was made in the
examination of Father John Jos
eph Cunningham, pastor of St.
Leo's church in Seattle, and was
the principal feature developed re
cently at the trial of Mrs. Lizzie
Magnusson's $i0,000 suit against
Bishop O'Dea and others. The
testimony was placed before tbe
jury over the emphatic objections
of aliorneys for the defenadnls.
Father Cunningham was the
first, and apparently an unwill
ing, witness f«»r the plaintiff. In
reply to questions by Attorney
Kelley, Father Cunningham ad
mitted learning something about
the alleged abduction of Marjorie
Reiman shortly after he became
pastor of St. Leo's church in
June, 1 (.H I. lie said a Miss Dy
rM*, whom he could not now recog
nize. had told liiin she feared
Father Van ("Joelhem had abduct
I'd her niece and asked him to use
his influence with the bishop to
induce Father Van CSoctliem to
reveal the girl's hiding place.
Following tbe conference with
Miss Dyer, Father Cunningham
said he talked with Father Van
[Soethem and told the latter two
ladies charged him with kidnap
ing their niece. Father Van fioo_
I hem's reply, the witness said,
was that if the women came to
the house again lie would call the
police.

Loudon, Sept. 28.-A Paris dis
patch gives an interview with
Miss Christobel Pankhurst, who
evaded arrest when her mother,
Mrs. Emeline Pankhurst, and Mr.
and Mrs. Pethick Lawrence were
tried for conspiracy, in which
Miss Pankhurst, admitting she
had been living in France for six
months, declared her intention of
settling permanently in Paris.
From there, she said, she would
direct the agitation against Eng
land. "The struggle will be car
ried on more desperately than ev
er," Miss Pankhurst declared.
"We are ready to make every sca

Clark Duff has returned from
Ihe Valdez creek "country, where
he has spent the summer. He
says that all of the miners now
working in that section will leave
as soon as it freezes up, however,
very few have been working this
year, as most of the ground has
been optioned to the Boston Syn
dicate, who were required to do
the assessment work this year,
and will later do considerable de
velopment work. A few small op
erators, whose ground was not in
cluded in the option, have been
working and doing very well.
