PLACED IN NEW YORK JAIL
San Francisco Real Estate Dealer,
Charged With Bribing Public Of
ficial and Who -Operated in
Oregon, Fails to Give Bail.
NEW YORK, Dec. 3L John A. Benson,
of San Francisco, is. in Ludlow-street jail
tonight, owlne to his inability to furnish
flO.000 hail. He was arrested here today
on a charge of bribery at the Instance of
secret service officers, who feared he was
about to leave the city.
Benson was recently arrested in "Wash
ington for bribing a Federal official. The
Indictment, which reached .here today from
Washington, contained 60 typewritten
pages. It ilrst charged that Benson and
Frederick A.. Hyde, of San Francisco,
were engaged in the business of unlaw
fully obtaining possession of titles to the
public lands in California and Oregon,
known as school lands. The indictment
stated that following the securing of the
lands by the two men, the Interior De
partment special agents, A. B. Pugh and
H. E. Steece, commenced an Investiga
tion. It is charged that on May 15 last Ben
Eon paid "Woodford D. Harland, Chief
Clerk of the Police Service of the In
terior Department, 5200 to furnish him
with advance information concerning the
report of Messrs. Pugh and Steece. It is
further alleged that a second payment of
$200 was made to Harlan on March 20, a
third on March 25 of the same amount,
and a fourth on December IS to the same
Federal official of $250. Claim is also
made that on December 16 Benson paid
"William E. Polk, a clerk in the Land Of
fice the sum of $150 to permit him to see
certain reports.
After his arrest the accused man was
taken before United States Commissioner
Shields, who set his examination for Janu
ary 12. Being unable to procure bonds
men, Benson was taken to jail. J. M.
Campbell, one of Benson's-counsel, said
his client had appeared before UrJted
States Commissioner in "Washington, De
cember 19, and the examination had gone
over until January 7.
"Not caring to wait," said he, "the
Federal officials there yesterday indicted
Mr. Benson on the identical charge he was
arraigned on there. "We expect to be
able to show that Benson had been guilty
of no such crime. We will furnish bail for
him tomorrrow." .
