ADMITS PUSHING

WIFE IN RIVER

' Astoria, Aug. 6. After three daysof grilling by officers, Olaf AndersonThursday evening: broke down andconfessed that he had murdered hiswife, Minnie Cecil Anderson, on Sun-day by throwing her Into the river.Mrs Anderson's body was recoveredlate Thursday afternoon. -

The! recovery of the body of his wife,coupled with the fact, that be under-estimated the brightness of his

child, led to the confession. As An-derson entered, the cell last evening hesaid to SierlffDle Nelson, "I guess-I'-ll

Dang tor this.", ...The break came last evening at 10 :50.

Officers had been grilling Anderson forAbout 40 minutes when the prisoner said :"I am going to you the whole truth.1 will stay in the penitentiary all mylife, but I want to tell It all. 1quarrelled with my; wife and thenpushed her into the river, I can't lieagainst my son." It was the story ofthe boy that brought the confession.

After Anderson had reported the fatal-ity to Coroner Hughes, the boy . was tak

to the - of the murder and whenUuestioTedTy DTstrictTSmSSland Coroner Hughes said that his fatherhad tied a boat to a stick and thenpushed his mother in the river. Hepointed out the stake where his fatherhad tied the boat and later told the offi-cers that 'Mamma had screamed."' Trouble over the children had causedthe argument in the boat, said Anderson, .who added that he became so excited that he threw his arms around hiswife and dropped her off the boat. Hesaid that his wife screamed ' once andthen the waves closed above her head.

Marshall did not cara to give an ex-pression of opinion on the position theUnited States . should take in regard tothepresent European situation, sayingthat it was tfor the president to deter-mine all International questions.PKOUD OF HIS RECORD

"When I go -- out of office, I hope tohave It; said that President ,Wilson had aVice , president that, never caused himtrouble," . Marshall said, and he ex-pressed pride in his past record.

Although the league was an interna-tional tiuestlon, the presiding officer ofthe senate said that he wasn't afraid toexpress his opinion on that topic. He Is'ror it, always has been for it and is notafraid of It. ":" " ".''" ')

j Marshall expressed amazement thatpolitical topics should be considered themost important question In the publicminds of Oregonlans. He said the cam-paign this year has not caused the bit-ter arguments so marked in formeryears, and that all the time he had beentraveling and visiting in California hehad heard little of politics. He did dis-cover, however, that the Japanese ques-tion w-a- occupying a .prominent place inconversation of the day. -

On the Japanese question -- Marshallwas willing to be quoted to a 'certainextent, i He said : :

I think that England, France, Italy.Japan and every other v nation have aninalienable right to say . who shall becitizens of their country, ? and I thinkthat every state in . the United Stateshas a clear right to say who can andwno cannot own real ; estate m thatstate."PRAISES CHAMBERLAIN'S WORK

i The smelter has not i been operated,for many years; and the frame out-buildings have been in the process ofdemolition for some time by wreckerswho were salvaging the - building ma-terials. Residents of the neighborhoodprevented the destruction of other 'prop-erty in the vicinity.

The old wooden buildings were thor-oughly dry and the blaze lighted up thecountry for miles around,' causing nolittle excitement among tfce people ofthe town and forming a ' highly enjoy-able diversion for the summer campersalong the shores of Oswego lake.
