Land Fraud Trials Postponed.
Portland Telegram :
The Oregon land fraud trials will
not be resumed before December 1st,
A report reaobed Portland this morn
lng to that elfeot and prlvste advioes
received by tbe Telegram from Spoo
ial Assistant Attorney Oeneial Fran
cis J. Heney confirm it.
When Mr. Heney and Judge Hunt
left Portland after che conclusion of
the Mays-Jones-Sorenson trial it was
believed tbat the government would
be in a position to resume the trials
tbe ISth of this month. Since then
affairs have taken a turn tbat de
termined Mi. Heney to iostcone tbe
Oregon oases until winter.
Whether tbe case against Binger
Hermann at Washington or tbe trial
of Hyde, Benson and Dlmond in the
captal city will be taken up before
the local cases is not known, but it
is evident tbat there baa been a ma
terial change in Mr. Heney 's plana.
The fact tbat he ia very busy with
important insurance oases In the Bay
City and further tbat be haa been ap
pointed a member of the board of
arbitration seieoted to pass on tbe
big San Franoiaoo street oar strike,
may have something to do with tbe
change of plans. No report has yet
been received by local government
otflolals on the reasons for the post
ponement, Mr. Heney probably
preferring to defer the announcement
in detail until tbe return home of

circuit oourt of appeals,
The continuation of the Oregon
triale undoubtedly means tbat the
Federal grand jury will be oonvened
almost immediately upon the return
of Mr. Bristol,
In the absence of definite informa
tion as to the cause of the delay, it
is regarded as highly probable tbat
not only will the .Federal grand jury
again begin its grind in Oregon, but
that Hermann or the Hyde-Benson
combine will be brought to trial in
Washington between now and tbe lat
er date set for tbe resumption of tbe
trials here.
The next oase set for trial is that
oharglng ex-Senator Wlnlook W.
Stetwer.Hamilton H. Hendrloks, John
H. Hall, Edwin Mays, Clarence U.
Zaobary, Charles A. Watson, Frank
lin Vy. P. Mays, Clarke E. LioomlB
and Edward D. Stratford with oon
splray to defraud the government by
fenolng up about 18,000 ares of govern
ment land in Wheelr oounty. It ia
familiarly known as tbe "fencing
case," and many facta bearing on It
were brought out in the trial ot Hen-
drioks, Zaabary, Watson and Bar
nard. Senator Mays, who was recent
ly oouvioted, will not be tried in
this CBse, Mr. Heney having agreed
to try him but once thlB year, when
hiB oase waa before tbe oourt on a
motion for a oontlnuanoe.
It Is understood that Clark E.
hoomiB will plead guilty, although
this has not been officially given out.
If he does, however, he will likely
be a Btnr witness for the govarnmeut
Loomls wbb an importuat witness for
the government in the HondrluKs,
Watson, Zaohary and Barnard cases.
The most oouspiouous defendant In
the;tenclng case will be John H. Hall,
tormei United States attorney, who
was removed from ollloe at the iu
stanoe of Mr. Heney when the in
vestigation into land fraud affairs had
begun to assume a serious turn.
Edwin MayB was Hall'B assistant at
tbe time tbe conspiracy (barged In
the indictment Is alleged to hate been
formed,
Every indication 1b that this will be
one of the hardeat fought trials on
the calendar.
