UTAH LAND FRAUDS DISCLOSED Great Tracts of Coal Land Filed in as Farm Land by Syndicate. Halt Lake City, Utah, March 14 Special agents ol tho Federal govern ment nru reported to have been engaged for some time past in investigating pub lic land frauds In Utah. Tho Halt Uke Herald today states that hundreds of thousands of acres ol valuable coal Innds have Wen acquired by corpora tions hy questionable methods. Vast tracts of conl lands aro said to hayu Im-cii tiled on and patented as agri cultural and grazing land, and then transferred to tliu coal companies. In many instances, it Is said, lands have lx-cn filed on as coal lands, under tho law which permits every adult citizen to acquire 1110 acres of coal lands by purchase, upon payment of $10 an aero for such Innds when situated more than 15 miles from any railroad, and $20 nu acre when situated within 15 miles of u railroad. Later these filings have been allowed to lapse, nnd the same lands have wen acquired as agrl iilturul or grazing land nt $1.50 an acre. More than 2,000 ol these conl entries have lieen made In tho Halt Lako land otllce, hut not more than one in 60 of tho ersons who mado tho filings has completed the purchase, the filings lapsing and title being secured as agri cultural or grazing land from the statu land ofhee through state land selec tions. Forty filings made in 1001 within a period of 00 days havo recently been Invcatign'ed, and 30 of the 40 claimants are found to havo been represented by an employe of u big coal corporation, exercising Kjwer of attorney. The land was tiled on nnd held lor 14 months, as Is permitted under tho law, without being paid for, but In none of these cases was the purchase completed, title being acquired through the state land office at a nominal figure under pro ceedings Instituted while the land was covered by the coal land filings.

Lane, It has been apparent that af fairs in the repub lic hare reached a critical stage. Its rMiDjrr aoaitu. chief difficulty, eliminating the ever present tendency to re-rolutJontz at the slightest pre text, seem to be a wonderful capacity to get Into debt and a corrcapondlng; Incapacity to get out again. The national debt of the tiny mulat to republic now amounts to the re spectable total of W3.O0O.O0O, which In consideration of the comparatively un important figure cut by Santo Do mingo In tho congress of western na tions Is altogether too crcat That has been the opinion of Its Impatient cred- EXTRAKCE TO BAiTTO DOUIROO IIAItBOIl. Itors for a long time, and more than one of tbem has protested that somo settlement should be effected. Borne of them have even declared their will ingness to undertake a receivership, promising to wind up the affairs of the Improvident republic with amaz ing celerity. Such a proposition from a foreign state Santo Domingo has shown a BANTO DOMINGO'S remarkable Impartiality In the selec tion of her victims, many of them being European could not be toler ated by the United States. The auaae of the late James Monroe would rise la Indignant proteet at tho mere sug gestion. If there Is any adjusting to be done It la clearly the privilege of the United States to do It There does not seem to have been the slightest objection to that way out of the diffi culty. It Is moot satisfactory to the foreign creditors, and the Dominicans themselves were so enthusiastic over the proposition that they tried at once to borrow more money on the strength of It In the carrying out of its Interfer ence It will be necessary as a prelim inary first step for the United States to restore the republic to a conuttion of Internal quietude. When this la ef fected the American readjusters will proceed to take charge of the country's revenues and pay off 1U obligations, those to American citizens receiving first attention. Reduced to Ita final terms, the proposition seems to be that the United States shall make the Do minicans behavo themselves long enough to pay their debts. Vhen that Is accomplished the dusky republicans will be free to resume their spend thrift career If they so elect It Is posstblo thnt by thnt time they may become so enamored of tho thrifty business methods of their guardians SANTO DOUIHOO BTREtTT SCENE. that they will choose to walk lu their footsteps ever after. It Is certain that the Dominicans are ardent admirers of the greater republic. The Island on which the republic of Santo Domingo la established la, next to Cuba, the largest of tho West In dies. One-third of Its irea Is devoted to tlio republic of Haiti, and the re mainder constitutes Banto Domingo. These contiguous republics are often confused, but they are quite dissim ilar In most features. The Dominicans nro much more refined and circum spect In their ways than their neigh bore and are less addicted to actual bloodshed In their periodical revolu tions. They are for the most part mulattos of Spanish and negro origin. The few Spanish families that havo not Intermingled with the prevailing type constitute the aristocracy of tin republic and hold themselves loftily aloof from their less fortunate neigh bors. Kducatlon In Its proper sense Is practically unknown. The average Dominican has not yet awakened to the necessity of adding to the knowl edge with which nature has endowed htm. The mulatto population, number ing at least half a million, la not In clined to be quarrelsome, but trouble la fomented by political tricksters who are trying constantly to obtain an op portunity to loot the public treasury. The people are for tho most part In dnfftrlous and patient, submitting to continual mlsgovcrnment and official peculation with remarkable good na ture. Tho president of the republic U practically a dictator. As often as suits bis convenience he submits to an election, and he la careful to bare it occur at a time when there Is no well organized opposition. The general system of gorernment Is copied after that of the United States. Offldati are plentiful, and the national revenues are far from sufficient to maintain the annual expenditure. Add to this the fact that a large proportion of the le gally collectible revenue never reaches the national treasury, and the cause of Santo Domlngo'a bankruptcy be comes apparent. The annual revenue Is $1,700,000, and the military establishment. Includ ing the nary, costs $400,000 a year. AH the officials are the personal ap pointee of Hie President, and the army la composed of men friendly to his Interests. Judging; from the past, the chief object of each administra tion has been to mulct the people of the largest possible amount before a NATIONAL PALACE. revolution brings about a new divi sion of the spoils. Under these cir cumstances politics has become tht chief business of the republic and oth er and equally Important Interests have been neglected. Agricultural and commercial pursuits hare suffered so greatly from the rapacity of the gov ernment and lack of encouragement view or True coast. that they are practically at a stand still. Santo Domingo Is the garden of the western tropics. Nature has given It a soil adapted to a wider range of products than can be found In any corresponding area In the West In dies. The list Is a long one. Including cocoa, tobacco, all kinds of tropical fruits, sugar cane, coffee, vanilla, rub ber and many other valuable things. In the Interior mountainous region forests of mahogany and other timber abound. The whole country Is In n, state of constant verdure, nnd thermal fluctuations are almost unknown. General Carlos P. Morales Is the pres ent head of the Dominican govern ment. Animal Instinct In Winter. With many forms of life the readi ness for winter Is not to secure a place to protect them from cold or even from freezing, but for security against sud den changes of conditions and of tem perature. It Is a protection In soma cases similar to that of the plants on the lawn that were covered with strew by the gardener when he made them ready for winter. In some place of the kind, for Instance In the squirrel's nest, there Is undoubtedly real animal warmth and coztness. "Pish seek the deepest parts of pools, where the tem perature of the water Is a little above freezing, and whore It remains very near this point until spring. St Nicho las.
