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.
Thomas Hlslop and Joe Paquet, two
East Side pioneer capitalists, who have
for years been at swords' points on all
sorts of propositions, political and other
wise, will come together in a logal strug
gle In a short time in the East Side Jus
tice Court I na civil lawsuit. 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. Paquet in
his reply denies tliat he ever used the j
ground, but admits that Johnson usod It
for storage purposes while building' the
elevated roadway on Union avenue, on
the express permission of Mr. Hlslop.
The time for hearing the case has not
been fixed, but it will be heard some
time this month. Mr. Paquet says that
he will be his own attorney, and de
clares that he will "throw It Into Tom
this time, and make him tell the truth for
once in his life." There will be a good
audience present when this case comes
off, as both have long-standing griev
