iHE 'MOBNING OKEGOJTEAxf, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, 16 GOVERNMENT'S NEW EVIDENCE Making Plainer Congressman Williamson's Connection With Land Fraud. BEARD'S STRONG EVIDENCE Williamson & Gesner at the PrinevlHe bank. la thin the roost Important item was a loan of $3(00, at 10 per cent, made December 5, 1KB, and Immediately check ed out In payment of the fees on the claims .filed upon by the Wlllltroson-Ges-ner cntrymen. Baldwin testified that the accounts of the defendants were in fact overdrawn. He also identified the checks received from the- Government Land Of fice in return of fees paid on claims that were afterwards relinquished. These re payments were credited to "Williamson & Gesner's account. Hosteller's testimony -was similar. A loan of $5000 had been made on William son & Gesner's note at the Congressman's request, and this, too, was quickly check ed out to pay the fees on final proofs at the Iand Office. This has an Important bearing on "Williamson's claim that he knew nothing about Gesner's land business. "Portland Day" at the Exposition, Saturday, Sept. 30th Souvenir Tickets on Sale Here A. S. Bennett's Questions on Cross Examination Iead to a Surprise. Woman Admits Influencing Another Witness. United States Attorney Honey drove home some new facts of importance yes terday In the third trial of the Wllllam-8-Gosncr-BrIggs case for subornation of perjury facts that he, doubtless, expects to use with damaging effect in his final summing up against the defendants. The alleged connection of Congressman Wil liamson with Dr. Gesner's land deals was made plainer than on the former trials. Ws activity In obtaining loans from the banks at PrinevlHe and The Dalles to pay the filing fees for the dummy entrymon being introduced to offset his claim that he had no part In this land business. ""a son & Gesner's object In getting their neighbors to take up land for their bene fit in township 15 south, range 19 west, was shown, according to new evidence, to be. not the acquisition of well-timbered lands and self-protection against the hos tile cattlemen, as claimed by the defend ants, but that they might obtain control of the springs and water courses In that woH-waterod section, and thus crowd out the rival sheepmen. Morrow Keenan. Further evidence, too. was introduced re garding alleged attempts to influence Gov ernment witnesses to withhold testimony ihat would injure the defendants. On the whole, it was a day of decided gains for the Government. Beard's Evidence Is Stronger. The principal witness of the day was Hoary E. Beard, an employe at the Wll-Itamson-Gosner sheep ranch In 1902. and one of those who took up land at the instance of the defendants. To his testi mony, given on the former trials, was added yesterday the statement that when "Williamson and Gesner. with their party, surveyed the country they sought out all the tracts having good springs and streams, and Immediately had their en trynion file claims thereon. This was a hard shot at the defense, which has per sistently asserted that Gesner's prime ob ject was timber. As on the former trials, Mr. Heney proved and Introduced the sonsatlonal let ter written by Dr. Gesner to the witness after Beard had filed on a claim In the expectation of making $75 under the agreement to transfer to the defendants. This is the letter in which Gesner told Beard that the Government "has a tip on the whole business"; that "they are liable to call us before the grand jury as wit nesses," and that the' only thing for Beard to do was to relinquish at once. Biggs Gives a Tip. This was done, but It did not prevent the summons to appear before the grand jry- After Beard and other entrymon had been subpoenaed, according to the witness. Biggs, one of the defendants, had given them some instructions for their visit to Portland. "He told us all to tell the grand jury that we had made no contract to sell the land. He aso said that we did not have to go Into Heney's office outside the grand Jury room." -When you made final proof on your claim, did you believe your affidavit to be true or false?" asked Heney. "It was for Williamson & Gesner," the witness replied. "It didn't matter wheth er It was true or not." Attorney A. S. Bennett's cross-examination of Beard was a long and severe attempt to show that he had testified dif ferently on material points at former trials, but the. witness came off without much damage. Bennett unexpectedly hitched a hornets' nest when he asked this question: "Did you not tesltfy at the former trials that you -were not under contract to sell to Gosnor. but wore at liberty to sell to ay one else if you could get $1009 for the land?" "Yes. sir. I did," answered Beard, look ing very hard at the defendants' able oounsol; "I testified that way to favor the defendants, i tried to help them out of tfcotr difficulty because 1 felt under obli gations to them." A Xcw "Witness. The only new witness called yesterday was Mrs. Lottie "Watklns, wife of John 5. Watklns, who had already told the story of his filing. Mrs. "Watklns related hw she and her husband wore advised by Williamson as to what sections they should file on. In fact, she said, the Congressman had set down In Watklns' notebook the numbers of the desired claims. These claims were to be trans ferred to "Williamson Sc. Gesner at a profit of $io apiece. Christian Feuerhelm, who testified on the former trials, proved a very forgetful witness for the Government, but by hard proWng Mr. Heney wrung from him some facts regarding his filing, the most note worthy of which was that he, too, was ordered by Dr. Gesner to gp before Biggs and relinquish, in order to avoid trouble with the Government. Didn't Have to Remember. Two" PrinevlHe belles whose appearance In the case caused a sensation at the for mer trials, were again on the stand yes torday, and in spite of their strong dis inclination to testify, wore compelled to repeat and even strengthen their evidence for the Government. The story of how Miss Pearl Vanderpool, the PrinevlHe schoolmistress, and Miss Mag gie Glaze were urged by Biggs to take up land to be transferred to "Williamson 6. Gesner, after they should have sworn falsely that Is was for their own use and occupation, was again gone over. It was brought out yesterday that Miss Vander- pool's partisanship for the defense led her to try to influence Miss Glare's testi mony at the second trial of the case. The witness had taken this advice. This was first drawn out from Miss Glaze, who admitted that her friend had advised her that in giving her testimony it would net bo necessary to remember everything Miss vanderpool had to con firm tills when she was called to the stand. Her friendship for "Williamson and Gesner was of long standing, she also admitted, and Mr. Heney drew from her , the facts regarding her repeated inter views with the defendants in this city. At these Interviews, as she confessed under Heney's merciless questioning, sho had reported to her friends now on trial what she had seen when sho was waiting in the District Attorney's office. Those Bank Accounts,. Old testimony with some new force was brought out from two bank cashiers T. M. Baldwin of the First National at PrinevlHe. and Jesse C. Hostetler of French & Cos bank at The Dalles. Bald win .proved hU copy, of the account of HEAVY P0SJAL RECEIPTS Gain for August in Portland Exceeds AnyOthcr City. The large Increase in the postal receipts of the Portland office for August over th In-st vear. which reports from Washington show to be the highest per cent of gain made by any city in tho.l country, is due only In part to the Lewis and Clark Fair, according to the state- , mentn of officials in the local Postofflce. t The large number of strangers in the city has. of course, raised the sales "higher , than they otherwise would have been, but evon without these people mere would have been a big gain over last year. For several years there has been a constant Increase in business done b7 the Portland office, and so a largo pro portion of the gain shown is regarded as simply a result of the increased popula tion and business df the city. "While we have no way of telling ex actly what part of the increase this year Is due to the Exposition, we are In a position to know that the larger part represents the normal growth of the city," said Richard Strous, cashier of the Portland office. "In fact, our busi ness indicates a much larger growth In the population of the city than Is shown by the census Just taken. I believe that the postal receipts of the Portland office will be fully as large If not larger next year than this, In spite of the fact that the number of strangers in the city will be much smaller. We can tell something of the growth of the city by the number of new families reported by the letter carriers on their beats. If I had my way about it, some arrangement would be made to have the letter-carriers take the census. They are in a much better position to get accurate results than any other class of citizens, and could get a reliable figure on the population in a very short time."

SUES FOR RENT OF GROUND Thomas Hlslop and Joseph Pnquet Have a Legal Tilt.

Mr. Hlslop has sued his antagonist to recover $57.50 rant for two lots on Union avenue and East Taylor, which the complalntant says that Paquet & Johnson used for "storing wood, lumber and other substances" for 13 months, for which $5 a month is con sidered a reasonable charge.

The time for hearing the case has not been fixed, but it will be heard some time this month.
