Llli FRAUDL CASES
Witnesses Here to Go Before
Grand Jury. "
MORE INDICTMENTS LIKELY
Matters Which United States District
Attorney Will Probably Bring
Before the New Body of
Federal Inquisitors.
To gaze, at the crowd in the corridor
leading to the office of United States
District Attorney Heney at the Federal
building the spectator would be led to
believe that some kind of a veterans' con
vention was in session behind the closed
doors of the prosecutor's room. Old men
in blue are there waiting for their turn
to be called into the room In answer
to the summons of the man who Is
probing into the land frauds of the state,
but with the aged crowd are many
younger men whose presence can not be
accounted for, as they do not know the
reason of their summons and the Dis
trict Attorney will not toll.
The new Federal grand Jury will be
called together this morning to delve
further Into the land-grabbing tangle now
occupying the time and attention of the
Government's Department of Justice and
it is expected that the session will not
be for a shorter time than two weeks.
In that time many startling things may
happen, but what they will be Is a matter
of conjecture.
Siletz Reservation Swindle.
It is a certaintj', however, that the first
case, or one of the first, to be taken
up for consideration will be the connec
tion of W. Jones, Thaddeus Potter,
Daniel Clark and Ira Wade with the
Siletz Reservation land swindles upon
which the men were Indicted by the for
mer grand Jury. The Indictment In the
case was dismissed at the request of the
District Attorney owing to faults found
in its construction by the defense and ad
mitted by the Government. At the time
the motion was made, however, Mr. Heney
gave notice that he would take the matter
up again in the future and the presence
of the old soldiers on the day before
the convention of the Jury shows that
he Intends to keep his word.
Jones and his associates were accused
or naing secured a number of old sol
diers to make false affidavits in filing upon
timber claims, with the understanding
that the lands should be deeded to the
conspirators as soon as title had been
gained. Many of these claimants were
from Portland, while others were from
different parts of the state and It is al
leged by the Government that a clear
case is made out by the evidence in
the hand of the prosecution. It seoms
certain, therefore, that the first thing to
be taken up is the Jones case, but what
other things will come before the jury
no one knows.
May Bring New Charge.
There Is one rumor current that the
indictment now standing against J. X.
"Williamson, Dr. Van Gesner and Marion
R. Biggs, accusing the defendants of con
spiracy to suborn perjury, and -under
which two trials have already been had.
will be quashed and another charging
conspiracy to defraud the Government
will be substituted. It has been stated
by Mr. Heney, however, that he will
try the men for the third time and upon
the Indictment now standing and the
case has been set for hearing before Judge
Hunt on September 5.
There is another rumor going the
rounds that an Investigation will be made
into the alleged tampering with the Gov
ernment witnesses during recent William
son trials. It was charged by Mr. Heney
during the trials that the witnesses had
not been let alone as they should have
been at all times, and he Intimated that
some Inquiry might be made into the mat
terwhen the proper time came.
Other than these things which are
being commonly mentioned.- there is but
little or no idea as to what will be gone
into by the jury. It is hinted that var
ious of the lumber corporations of the
State which have secured title to Im
mense tracts of land during the years
just past will be brought under fire of
the Federal investigations. It Is also
argued that more of the well-known men
of the state, who have been Identified
In one way or another with timber specu
lation and land deals during the recent
years will be asked to tell what they
remembor of the methods by which their
land holdings were secured.
More Indictments Probable.
At the time of the first graud Jury's
adjournment it was stated there were
several Indictments which have been voted
that could not be brought Into the court
owing to lack of opportunity to draw
them. These, whatever they may have
been, will probably be taken up again
by the new jury and considered.
Mr. Heney and his assistants were busy
yesterday preparing for the commence
ment of the Jury's labors, and from In
dications it is probable that the first In
dictments may be returned before the
end of the week.
AT
T
PROMPT ACTION BY FIREMEX
PREVENTS SPREAD.
ioss Will Aggregate About Five
Thousand at Packing-House
and Furnishing Store.
Two flres, the total loss from which
will aggregate $5000. broke out almost
simultaneously, about midnight last
night. The first alarm was for a fire that
broke out in the smokehouse of the Ar
mour Packing Company at Fourth and
Couch streets, at 11:55 o'clock, and the
quick response of the Fire Department to
an alarm sent in by Emil Spranger, who
discovered the fire and sent in a call for
the department, prevented a disastrous
blaze. There was no one in the building
at the time, for one of the employes, Fred
Nauton, had left the building at 11:30
o'clock, and says everything was all right
at the time of his departure. The dam
age to the meats In the smokohouse is
estimated at about $1000. which Is cov
ered by insurance.
As the various companies were re
turning to their -houses an alarm was
sent in from Second and Taylor, and
the department resncnde.i ImmerMntPiv.
Thisfire threatened to be a serious one.
for Jn the vicinity of Feat's furnishing
goods store, 207 First street, where
the flro originated, -are several lodging
nouses and many 'of the buildings In
tnat locality are of the ramshackle va
riety, and the conflagration would
have been a -disastrous one had not
the firemen arrived so promptly. The
store of William Fest was damaged to
the extent of $3000, principally through
water, which practically ruined most
of the stock. Over the furnishing goods
store is tne factory of the Pacific Re
galia 'Company, owned by Paul Pf crd-
ner, which place was 'damaged by
smoke and water to the extent of about
5500. The fire apparently started In a
rear room of Fesfs store and extended
through a skylight In the roof to the
upstairs factory.
Both fires attracted large crowds of
curious ones on the way to their homes
from the circus and other places of
amusement, but the presence of Cap
tain Bailey and a squad of police kept
order and permitted the firemen to
work without hindrance. Both fires
were handled with dispatch.
IN CIRCUIT COURT.
0
Judge George Renders Three Impor
tant Decisions.
Circuit Judge George handed down three
decisions of more or less importance from
his bench yesterday, and but for the ab
sence of the District Attorney, jrould
have also announced his ruling in the
case of the state against W. F. HollowelU
on his motion for a new trial under his
conviction of obtaining money by false
pretenses. As it was, ho reserved his
decision, but it is believed that his find
ings will be In favor of granting the
motion.
The motion to set aside the award of
the arbitrators in the case of O. M. Smith
vs. Caroline Baum was denied. The de
fendant is the owner of the east half of
lots 2 and 3, and the ast half of the
south 20 feet of lot 6, block S, In Doscher's
Second Addition to Portland, and about
June 2, 1904. she contracted with Smith
to erect a $1500 building on the property.
It was alleged that he violated the speci
fications, and the dispute arising there
from was submitted to H. E. Stomler
and E. E. McLaren as arbitrators, re
spectively, for plaintiff and defondant.
William Ballls being chosen as the third
momber, their majority award being In
favor of defendant to the extent of
$903.70.
It was charged in the complaint that
Ballls was prejudiced on account of being
a client of Spencer &. Davis, one of whom
was attorney for the defense, but this
was denied in the answer. Judge George
rendered a decree for Caroline Baum on
her cross-complaint.
Hattie E. Mansfield was granted a di
vorce from Claude Mansfield, on the
ground of crueltj-, and In addition to be
ing awarded one-third of the community
property, was also given the custody of
the children. The court held that de
fendant's charge of bad conduct on the
part of his wife was not proved and con
stituted an evidence of cruelty on his
part.
In the suit of W. D. Randall against
the Southern Pacific Railroad Company.
Judge George granted the defendant's
motion for a new trial. Randall, who is
a well-known racehorse owner from Mon
tana, was awarded $5000 damages by a
jury on account of the destruction of
some valuable animals In a railway
smashup, while In transit from Portland
to San Francisco. The corporation asked
for a new trial on the ground that Ran
dall had obtained a special rate of $20 a
head for the shipment of the animals,
and that it was not liable for any greater
amount.

TELEPHONE IS RUNNING.
Moves From Her Dock at Last Un
der Her Own Steam.
Yesterday afternoon at about 3:39 P.
M. the new steamer Telephone left her
dock under her own stoam for a ore-
Hmlnary run down the Willamette River
to a point below LSnnton and back again
after making a short stop for a load
of wood. It was not Intended to be a
trial trip to test the capacity of the
steamer, but a little run to warm up the
boxes and loosen up the machinery. No
speed test was attempted so that no
definite idea can be given as to the
actual speed of the boat. The trip, how
ever, demonstrated that the new boat
has fine lines and goes through the water
without pushing a great wave before her
or sucking a large wave behind her.
She had no load on and probably will
act differently when she is loaded down
with a full passenger list or a full load
of freight
She is 231 feet ovor all In length, 31
over all in beam and S foot depth of hold.
She has 900 Inches of heating surface
In her boilers and is allowed to carry
199 pounds of steam. Her engines are 25
inches In diameter, 8 foot stroke. Her
passenger-carrying capacity is the
largest on the river. Captain Cochran
would not say where she would be run
to. He seemed well pleased with her and
would not say whether he expected to
be able to pass the othor crack boats on
the rivor or not, but did say she would
soon talk for herself and the public will
soon be Informed when and where she is
to run.

tain a fresh supply from the Spanish ship
Montevideo.

DM HAS ft GOOD PUNCH
SATS HE WHiXi WIN IN LESS
THAN 23 ROUNDS.
Willie Brltt and Nolan Post $2500
Forfeit With Harry Corbett
for Side Bet.
SAN FRANCISCO, Cal.. Aug. 2L (Spe
cial.) Battling Nelson announced today,
that he would win from Jlmmie Brltt in
their fight on September 9 in less than
25 rounds.
"It's in me," said the Dane, "for I
have the strength and the punch."
Nolan came over to town before noon
to post a J2300 forfeit with Harry Corbett
for the $10,000 side bet, the remainder to
be Dlaced before the day of the battle.
Willie Brltt was also on hand with his,
and the matter was settled.
A special open-air ring is being built
for Brltt to train In. This ring, however,
will only be used when the sun shines,
which Is not every day out at the beach.
The champion and Tlv Krellng went out
on the road for a long run at 9 o clock
this morning and Frank Rafael arrived
at the camp ready to go to work at box
ing with Brltt.
Battling Nelson went for a horseback
ride this morning and will confine his
exercise to road work for a day or two
until a split lip has healed. Nelson finds
no difficulty In losing weight and is
always a healthy specimen In training.
The arena at Colma. as now planned.
will seat 10.000 persons and will be prac
tically completed with ten days. If it Is
seen from advance sale of seats by that
time that more room will be necessary
the arena may be enlarged.
3rilllonaIres on the Way.
SEATTLE. Wash., Aug. 21. (Special.
Walter and Henry, two Itlnerent mis
sionaries from Benton Harbor. Mich., the
headquarters of the "Israelites of 'the
House of David." are on their way toward
Portland, traveling In a wagon drawn by
a single horse. On each side of the wagon
the fact Is proclaimed that they are
"Shlloh's messengers," and the wagon
"No. 13."
The travelers are proclaiming the Im
mortality of the human body as soon as
the blood dries up and the owner of the

Injured by Kicking Horse..-
VAXCOUVER. Wash.. Aug. 21. (Spe
cial.) While S. A. Reed, a drayman, was
hitching up his team this morning one
of the horses suddenly commenced kick
ing, and inflicted two ugly blows on Mr.
Reed and one on Albert Miller, a young
man who was helping to hitch the team
The blow struck young Miller just under
the heart, breaking three ribs and caving
