history of the case in which Myron-
was connected, as it appeurs In ia
I'ederal Iteports. 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."
