I'AKK" LOCATION'S HELD. F. Miimrd, Henry .). Harper and Associates Said to Have De frauded Many. Portland Oregonian: With the ar raignment in the United States Dis trict Court yesterday before Judge Ilean of W. F. Mlnard and Henry J. Harper, charged with fraudulent use of the malls in selling "fake" loca tions on timber lands within the Ore gon & California laud grant, the ex tra terms of the indictment against these men and 111 others, six of whom have been arrested, were made public for the first time. The indictment charges that Mill ard, Harper and their associates caused a great number of people, liv ing in Seattle, Tacoma and other Washington cities, to pay for value less "locations" on the railroad land grant lands. The scheme is outline'' as having been for some of the de fendants to represent themselves as agents of the railroad company. The argument would be advanced, it Is charged, that the compnny knew that it was going to lose the lands In its suit with the Government, but that It was anxious to save the timber; and that an option would be tuken from the people making locations, so that they could sell the timber at a handsome profit. Tne indictment further charges that all these representations were tulse; that the defendants knew they were false, and that they used the malls to further their fraudulent scheme.
