OREGOKIAN NEWS BUREAU.
Washing-ton, D. C, Aug. 17. As th
result of a conference held today be
tween C E. S. Wood, of Portland, rep
resenting1 the owners of the wagon
road lands in Malheur County, and of
ficials of the Reclamation Service, fur
ther steps'wlll be taken to bring about
an adjustment of the differences be
tween those two Interests, which may
result in ultimately insuring the con
struction of the Malheur irrigation
project. There was no agreement to
lay, there was no definite promise of
?ne, but the conference brought to
light the fact that much-of the past
disagreement between the Government
and the wagon-road people has been
due to a misunderstanding. Now that
the situation is cleared up and each
side understands what the other Is
contending for, further effort will be
made to bring about a settlement of
the differences.
After his conference today, Mr.
Wood stated that there are but two
points on which the wagon-road own
ers and the Reclamation Service dis
agree. One is as to the amount of
wagor.-road land that shall be brought
under the project and should help to
bear the expense of its construction;
the othor is as to the length of time
which the road-land owners should
have In which to sell such of their
lands as may be brought under irriga
tion. All other points at issue have
been satisfactorily adjusted, and no
longer onter into the dispute.
Where Two Parties Differ.
Before leaving the Reclamation Of
fice, Mr. AVood drew up a brief state
ment of the case as he understood it,
and his statement was accepted by the
Reclamation officials as properly set-
age materially smaller than the list made
by the Government experts, hie will in
sist that the landowners shall say what
acreage shall be brought under the pro
ject and what shall not. The Reclama
tion Service told Mr. Wood today that
Unwanted him to agree to' subscribe
"every acre of irrigable land." but this
"he will not do, for he sayg considerable
road land is not of such a character as
to stand this high price and he is un
willing and the landowners are unwHl
lng to sell such land to settlers, know
ing that they would be obliged In time
to mortgage and eventually lost their
tiomes because they would be unable to
meet their payments. Mr. Wood says he
and his clients as well as the Govern
ment are looking to the interest of the
settlers and he will never subscribe lands
which he knows can't stand $12 per acre
for water.
He furthermore insists that, in view of
the large amount of Government land
under the Malheur project which can be
obtained without cost and in -view of
the great acreage adjoining in Idaho.
which the Government will Irrigate for
about $25 an acre, it is unfair to compel
the wagon-road landowners to sell their
lands before water Is turned on. He says
they cannot meet such competition, he
will Insist upon having one year after
the project Is completed in which to make
sales and will hold out for an upset price
of $3 an acre on all lands not sold within
that year. The Reclamation Service will
probably be willing to yield on this lat
ter point as to the upset price, but la not
ready to yield onthe other contentions.
Early Adjustment JLlkcly.
2CeIthor Mr. Wood nor the reclamation
officials look forward to an immediate ad
justment of their difference on the two
great questions at issue, for neither side
is now willing to make concessions. Mr.
Wood has hopes that, under pressure
from Orogon, the Reclamation Service
will eventually accept the terms of the
road landowners, especially after he has
full data and can submit a detailed state
ment as to the lands he Is willing to sub
scribe. The statement is made at the Reclama
mation Offices that, while it is true that
landowners are waiting for an adjustment
with the wagon road people, settlers have
Informed the Government that there is
no use in signing for their lands while
this other Question remains open. To meet
this, Mr. Wood says that, oven Jf the
company should today accept the Govern
ment's terms, the Reclamation Sen-Ice
would not be able to commence construc
tion of the project, that there are many
questions yet to be worked out, many
other lands to be signed for and rights
of way to be.. acquired before work can
commence He thinks the Government
might well pursue other operations while
it is endeavoring to come to terms with
him.
Citizens Have New Plan.
Mr. Wood toddy loft with the Secretary
of the Interior a petition from citizens of
Malheur County asking that the Govern
ment take up and build the reservoirs of
the Malheur project, leaving the landown
ers to build all the canals. They think
this will cheapen irrigation. In their peti
tion the landowners cxnress fear that
ting forth the facts. In substanco, the j much land of Malheur Valley will not be
able to stand a lien of $42 an acre and they
arc willing to undertake all canal con
struction because they know it will mate
rially reduce the cost of getting water
onto the land. Their appeal will have
careful consideration.
statemont was as follows:
The Reclamation Service demands
that all wagon-road lands which the
Government soil experts select shall
be listed as subject to a Hen of $42
an acre. The land grant owners de
mand that they themsolves shall de
cide what land Is compotent to bear
this lien, promising to include evory
acre which they deem capable of sus
taining this price for wator. The Gov
ernment demands that all road lands
not sold at the time water is ready to
be turne'd on shall be sold by the Sec
retary of the Interior without restric
tion. The landowners fear Hho com
petion of the Government and other
cheaper lands, and require one year
after water is turned on in which to
dispose of their irrigated lands, fur
ther insisting that no lands sold by
the Secretary after the one-year period
shall be disposed of for less than $3
an acre.
The Government assorts that there
are about 25,000 acres of road lands
which should be listed and which can
bear a Hen of $42. The land-grant
owners do not yet know whether this
Js so, but doubt if they have moro
than 11.000 acres of this high-grado
land. The failure of any considerable
body of road land now included by the
Government exports (and estimated at
1000 acros) to come in would result in
the failuro of the plan, as the acre
lien would have to be again raised
higher than $42 per acre and that is
not deemed feasib'le. Even If the road
company acceded to every demand of
the Government it Is not certain that
the plan could be carried out, for the
following reasons:
It is not settled what could be done
with private wator rights. It is not sot
tied how much of the private land out
side the wagon-road land will come In at
$42 per acre. It Is not settled what can
be donff In condemning the reservoir site
which Is now sought by the Hammond
Railroad.
Government Was Misled.
Speaking for his clients, Mr. Wood said
that the wagon road company was as
anxious as anybody to see Eastern Ore
gon developed, and wanted the Malheur
project constructed. He emphatically de
nied that the road landowners wore de
laying the project In any way. He said
he had submitted his proposal to the Rec
lamation Service in May and never since
then had he heard from It as to whether
or not the terms were satisfactory,
in fact he had had no communication
with it whatever. This statement "con
flicts with information recently communi
cated to Reclamation headquarters in this
city. The Reclamation Office had been
led to believe by official correspondence
that Supervising Engineer D. C. Henney
at Portland had qpen repeatedly con
ferring with Mr. Wood, for he lately re-
iccturcs on Porcstry at Fair.

obstinate." Mr. Wood says Mr. Henney
has not been to see him, has not even
responded to his proposition of last May
and has made no attempt, so far as he
knows to reach an understanding with
him. If Mr. Wood's statements are cor
rect, Mr. Henney has misled the Recla
mation Office and the recent charge which
this office made against the wagon roajj
owners is due to that misunderstanding.

J. L Anderson, of Kansas City,
Is Foully Murdered at
Bonneville.
FOUND IN POOL OF BLOOD
Assassin Evidently Crept Up Behind
and Struck Fatal Blow Motive
for the Crime Is a
Mystery.
BONNEVILLE, Or.. Aug. 17. (Staff Cor
respondence.) While answering his aged
mother's call to come home, J. I. Ander
son, of 441 North Prospect street, Kansas
City, Mo., was foully murdered near this
place some time early this morning. The
crime is remarkable for its cold-bloodedness
and its mystifying foatures.
The bodj' was found by C A. Townsend,
of Portland, at I o'clock this afternoon, at
a point 600 feet west of the Bonneville sta
tion and about 75 feet from the O. R. & N.
track. Telegraphic advices brought Cor
oner Flnley and Sheriff Word to the scene
of the crime. The investigation tonight
showed that Anderson met his death by
repeated blows on the skull with a hoavy
bridge bolt, but failed to reveal the slight
est clew to the murderer or to disclose a
motive for the crime.
The body was found in the open In a
slight depression, the battered head lying
in a pool of blood, while near by lay the
blood-clotted bar of Iron with which the
crime had been committed. A peculiar
feature was the orderly condition of the
body and that the ground showed no signs
of any struggle. The corpse lay stretched
at full length, the feet together and the
hands almost clasped across the breast.
Assailant Crept From Behind.
Every evidence Indicated that the mur
dered man had been seated while his as
sailant crept up and struck him from be
hind. The skull was crushed apparently at
the first Wow. The fact that the motive
of the crime was 'one other than robbery
was evidenced by the condition of the
clothing. No attempt, apparently, had
been made to rifle the pockets, which con
tained various papers and JS in money.
Papers found on the body show it
to be that of J. L. Andorson, of Kansas
City, Mo. He appeared to be about 22
yoars of age, although with the sign
of having boon tramping, was neatly
dressed. A registered letter from his
moth or la Kansas City bore the marks
of having been delivered to him at 249
Burnside street. Portland, Or., August
13. This letter, written with a moth
er's love, says:

Anothor letter from Poarl Lovoll
urges that he should come home. A
book of special rules of the" Missouri
Pacific Railway was found lying at the
body's side.
Finding of the Body.
The story of the finding of the body
was told by Mr. Townsend before the
Coroner's Jury, which was empaneled
tonight Mr. Townsend is hore with
his wife on a vacation. He said:
"My wife and I wore returning-from
the falls about 3 o'clock, when we saw
what we thought was a tramp asleep.
As we got nearer to him, however, we
saw that his skull was crushed, pre
senting a ghastly sight. Near him
was a big bridge bolt, covered with
blood. He was lying Just as the Cor'
oner found him tonight, and I could
see no signs of thore having- been any
struggle."
No one has been found in this vicinity
who had ever seen the murdered man
before, nor has any stranger been seen
here today. Coroner Flnley, affhr exam
ining the body, 'was of the opinion that
death had occurred less than 15 hours be
fore the discovery. With the entire ab
sence of even the slightest clew. Sheriff
Word finds himself completely baffled. It
Is his theory that the murderer was a
travoling companion of Anderson, proba
bly leaving Portland with him. He said:
Sheriff Reviews the Situation.
"The motive for the crime Is obscure,
and whether It was for robbery or revenge
cannot be told. The man may have had
a watch, and this may have been tak,en,
while the $2 were overlooked. Still, the
pockots do not look as If they had been
gone through, and the clothing was In no
way disarranged. The crime was com
mitted stealthily, and it seems doubtful
if any clew to the murderer will ever be
found.

GALLS HIRES H. PERJURER
FLORIDA RAILROAD COMMIS
SIONER'S SAVAGE ATTACK.
Snjs High Railroad Official Swore
to Conflicting Statements Uni
form Taxes on Railroads.
DBADWOOD, S. D.. Aup. 17. At the
convention today of the National Railway
Association. Stctt Burr, Commissioner
from Florida, created a. sensation when
he openly denounced "Walker D. Hlne.
ex-asslstant general counsel and now first
rice-president of the Louisville & Nash
ville Rallrond. as a liar and perjurer.
He said Hfnes made a sworn statement
of the valuation of the property of the
Louisville & Nashville Railroad to the
Controller of the State of Florida for
the purpose of taxation for the year end
ing June 30, 1302. He says he later made
another sworn statement to the Commis
sioners of Florida on the value of the
property for tne same year for rato
makin? purposes, which was much great
er. Later he says HInes made another
sworn statement of the value of the prop
erty of the same year, when applying
for a temporary Injunction In the United
States District Court to enjoin the Com
mission 'from enforcing a reduction In
passenger rates, which was double the
statement made to the Commissioners or
to the Controller. Burr asked the Na
tional Railroad Commissioners to not
give any credit to statements made bv
Hines before the committee of ConcresK.
Benjamin F. Chadbourne. Rallrond Com
missioner of Maine, made a heated replv
to the charges.
Discussions of the questions of rallwav
taxation in various states aroused tho
greatest interest thus far manifested.
Charles T. Staples, of Minnesota, pre
sented a report which showed that tho
valuation per mile of railroads on which
taxes were levied varies In different
states from In South Dakota to $1366
In Massachusetts, and that there are
over a half dozen methods of arriving
at a basis of taxation In the various
states.
The convention decided that uniform
taxation of railways In all states was so
Important that the matter should be
handed over to- the .committee on rall
rond taxes for the ensuing yenr with In
structions to report such a uniform plan.
