Hymn is now rviiiK sentence at the McNeils Is land federal prison os a result of his conviction, says the Salem States man. Story of a Swindler. The story of this case is a 'repot I-1 tion of the Baleni cases, the Seattle cases, the Tacoma cuses, the Hose buric cases and counth'ss other cases dating most any old time in the past 10 years. ltyrou's .record proves him a heartless and cold-blooded professional swindler who has used and reused the same old game ol contracting to deliver patent to tim ber lands, for a cash consideration and who in the language of the re port: "never had succeeded In secur ing title for anyone for cither "se lected' or 'patented' lands by means of his procedure or otherwise; that every application filed would he re jected; that prior filings covered all land In question; that defendant never Intended to repay his victims iml agreements made were only to prevent victims from discovering that thev had been cheated and de frauded." (VTerity and Silence. Ilyron moved with celerity and sl 'ence in making his Salem shake down. Secrecy, he represented, wa an essential to success and his grave vise connection with the land ofTici mustn't be whispered about for a very good reason, as is now appar "nt. I'.yron was accepted at his own valuation evidently, for without looking up his record, notorious throughout the northwest, without an imiuiry into his character, which was as shady as his timber deals without ascertaining the status of the timber land In question or By ron's ability to. deliver title, citizen if Salem, business and professional men, merchants. educators and 'clerks eagerly gave up their money to a couvicted swindler already un der sentence to the federal peniten tiary for perpetrating the same old fraud. It was in September that Ilyron made his first Salem clean-up, while out on bond pending appeal. In De cember, his appeal had h-en lost and he had been twice Indicted for new swindling operations at Seattle but got a stay of Judgment to pre inrc for his new trial, which he uti lized to finish up his Salem enter prise; slinging some of his victims a second time and extending con tracts generally. This caused hftn to be taken into custody to protect Sa lemltes from further losses. Official Court ltoco.nl. The record of Byron's operations for which he Is now serving time, is given in the l!j9 Federal Reporter containing the record of the case in ihe federal -circuit court. It is prac tically the same scheme and the same land used later In defraudinf Seattleites and later upon Salemites. Kxtracts from this offbUl record read as follows: The defendants, for the purpose f defrauding victims would fraiulu lently represent that trtey could pro cure for them patents and titles tr certain lands called 'selected lands and 'patented lands' if the victims would pay to the defendants certain moneys as location fees and expen ses. Defendants had been successful ly engaged in procuring for appli cants, title to such patented' and selected' lands having great value of timber thereon by means of a pro cedure substantially as follows: "It would be repersented tnat tne lands designated as -selected nan previously been selected by Hyde & Co.. and other transferees under thf Forest Men selection act: that the manner nv which the title to the base lands offered to the selertor had been acquired. was unlawful anil adverse proceedings were pend ing in the land department seeking to cancel the selection on the ground of fraud: that the result of such proceedings would he the fin--ol-latlon of all selections: that there were large tracts of olher lands, designated ns -patented' which wen- lands to which naienis from the I lu ted States hud previously been fraud-J ulenilv obtained; that the lands hau been restored to the public domain bv reason of a decision of the su preme court In certain equity suits. Victims Art- Mulcted. "It w:i misrepresented that the 'selected' and 'patented' lands, were open to pntent and sale under the timber and stone act; that those whe filed through Byron would receive patent and title within two years frori application: that persons who inane such application and services to lie rendered bv defendants, ob ntn preference rights to purchase from said government at 2.".0 per n. re: thrvt personal examination by the applicant of lands apulied for was not necessary, and that upon navment of $2.50 per acre the gov ernment would issue patent within two years from date of application. The victims were mulcted from $100 to 11000 each for pretended services in locating them and would then do fraud the victims out of all of :heir money so receiied and give Jhem nothing in return therefore, though it-fund of money In case of failure was promised. Xeter IVlivereil Title. "The Indictment negatives the sev eral alleged lalr:e representations and pretenses by setting up that the defendants never had succeeded In necuriftf tHle for anyone 'or either said 'selected' or 'patented' lands, by means of their procedure or oilier wise; that tho procedure was worth less; tlmt It was impossible u tuiil ate or secure preferences rr.r the lands: that neither the 'selected' nor 'patented' lands were open to sale, selection or entry under any of the nubile land laws of the I'nited States and applications for tiio sann would be rejected; that the lands cculd not be purchased under the timber and stone act for S2.r0 an acre, and If open to i-ntrv. could only be procured bv payment of the appraised value rjirreof; Hint the patent could not be secured for any 'anils under the timber and smite act inless the appll-ant personally ex amined the land applied for wilhlu '0 days prior to filing the nppltca--tion; that every application filed vould be rejected by tho land office: hat upon varioui tracts upon which ''he 'victims' inii-ht file there had ilready been similar applications to mirchnse said lands, filed by others chose filinif were prior: that Ihe o"e endants never intended to repay the noneys raid by the victims, and that ai-y agreements for the return ftbe moneys were made to Induce the victims to believe that theh nonev would be returned and pre vent them from discovering that -hey had been cheated and do-rrauded."
