President Hears ' Details in Land Fraud Cases PROSECUTION MUST BE SURE That Iliey Dave Proper Grounds For Substantiating the Grave Charges Made. Washington, D. C, Feb. 1". There was a conference at the White House yesterday In which the President, Sec retary Hitchcock and Attorney-General Moody participated. The President was anxious to have a full statement of the Government's cases against Senator Mitchell and Representatives Hermann and Williamson and of the grounds up on which these indictments were se cured. He was given as full an explan ation as Mr. Hitch'iock and Mr. Moody could make. The President was deeply interested. When all explanations were made, he responded: "These are very grave charges that you have brought against prominent Government hfllcials. You declare the facts justify them. I want to say to you now that if, in view of what has tran spired, you fail to make your charges stick and allow the Government's case to fall, you will place the Government in a very bad light. In running down these frauds you have represented the United States Government, and it would be a grave thing to mako such' serious charges and be unable to sub stantiate them." HAVE ABUNDANCE OP PROOF. Secretary Hitchcock promptly re plied: "Mr. President, so far as I am concerned, I have no fear. We have plenty nf evidence to sustain the indictments- When the time comes wo will bring forward an abundance of proof and will be entirely vindicated." , President Roosevelt has at all tiroes given his Cabinet officers the widest latitude in their efforts to locate and bring to justice every person Implicated in land frauds, regardless of his position or previous record, Noted Financier Dead. Philadelphia, Feb. 17. Jay Cooke, the celebrated financier, died last night at the 'home of his son-iD-law In this city, aged 83 years, of general debility. The end came suddenly, for last Mon day he was in his usual spirits and en tertained a party of school girls. When he was 21 he became a partner in the banking house of E. W. Clark & Co., i ne of the largest firms then in the country, and was Its active business manager until 18W, when he retired made and property in all respects to engage in negotiating railroad boods and other securities. He built several railroads, and in IStil resumed the banking business as Jay Cooke & Co. At the opening of the civil war he obtained and sent to Washington without compensation a large list of subscriptions to United States loans. During the war he be came the sole financial ageut of the government in negotiating loans amounting to more than $2,000,000,000, which was registered as tho most re markable feat in financiering in his tory. W hon the national banking syetem came up for adoption during the war Mr. Cooke gave it a hearty support, and through his oll'orts a large portion of the banking was changed to the national system. In 1S73 Mr. Cooke failed on "Black Friday," and he sustained severe finan cial reverseii in consequence of having advanced too heavily on railroad se curities. He, however, created another fortune and died a very wealthy man. Mr. Cooke financed the Northern Pacific railroad and is a heavy land owner in the northwest. The Sunshine of Spring.

California, Ida ho, Montana and Colorado are to feel the effects of Francis Joseph Heney's ability to get at the facts In land fraud cases, and the assistance of Mr. Burns in this matter is to be lent. The great er part of 1005 will be spent In hand ling the cases in Oregon, but the work here is but the beginning. Of a more sensational character, even, than those of Oregon are expected to bo the dis closures In other states, for, It Is held by those who have begun this fight for purity, that the Oregon operators were but novices in a game that had been played with greater efficiency and fine ness in other places.
