JUDGE GIVES INSTRUCTIONS four of the Men Already Indicted Appear ;ln Court, Plead Not Guilty and Ask lor Day- of Trial. MOSCOW, Idaho. Oct 24. (Special.) Interest in the land-fraud cases Is cen tered on the grand Jury that at 11 o'clock today was summoned to appear before Judge Beatty. The courtroom was crowd ed, and as the men filed Into the box they were scrutinized by more than one pair of eyes In the audience. It was a wonderful study in expression to sep the attention attracted by this ap parently very representative body of American citizenship before ,whom will be brought a vast number of witnesses, and whose sessions are more on the order of the Inquisition than those of any other legal body in this country. Some of the inquiring eyes were focused to a point of Interrogation, as though the owners would demand what manner of men they were; whether they were stanch in keeping their oaths, or whether influence of some sort, properly placed, would not cause them to swerve from the path of duty. Eyes there were that glanced furtively at the faces of the Jury men, shrinking back ag If already con fronted with questions that would lay bare carefully hidden secrets. Others in the audience .gave nothing but glances full of curiosity us to the person nel of the body that has been kept so carefully from the public The Govern ment has been very cautious. Distrust "A anxiety, bred In large part by this fcutlon, has grown to great proportions. F:ere is a long task ahead, of these oro and more of men. Turing their ; sslon 130 witnesses will appear and be Jjestioned closely as to what they know cf the manner in which many acres of il jable Government land have passed Into private hands. The Government al leges that fraud has been perpetrated, and men of high and low degree are said to have had a hand in the land robbery. Already men prominent in- the- .state have been Indicted, and secret service men have been active for months in. col lecting evidenco to convict the guilty. Rumor says 50 indictments .will .probably be leturaed. This prospective Indictment by wholesale has created the utmost con sternation. Men summoned as witnesses may find their own names on the liBt when the star chamber session Is over. Many who may be Involved are in. the drepest sort of study, turning over in their minds their chances, speculating -on the- truenoss of their friends, And wonder ing whether in the scorching examination permitted before a grand jury" friendship will fade as dew before the sun and dis appear in the mists. Doubt is mixed with terror in more than one inner consciousness, for these land, fraud Investigations have in other states i proved no laughing matter. Judge J. H. Beatty cautioned the Jury- i men briefly in a general -way as to their ! deportment. He informed thorn that i some timber cases would probably come up for their consideration, and Instructed thm not to permit their sympathies to Influence them in their action, thoujeh the accused should bo of a high station In life. The Jury will report for duty tomor row. At 10 o'clock this morning the land fraud cases were called and William F. Ketten back, George H. Kester, William Dwyer and Jackson O'Keefe asked permis sion to plead. A plea of not guilty was entered by each. William Borah, one of their attorneys asked that a certain .date be set for trial. The Government objected. The defense Insist ed, and the court thought the defendant's request reasonable and advised that a date be set. United States Prosecuting Attorney N. K. Rulck asked until tomor row to consider the matter, assigning as his reason for delay that his labors would be taken up with the grand Jury. In denying the report that he had of fered to turn state's evidence, William Dwyer, one of the defendants, said: I deny emphatically the truth of the en t'ro report. I have not anything: to give the prow-utlon except une evidence concerning the frauds perpetrated by T". D. Culver. 33. P Thomaa, Gaylord TV. Thompson, Harry Fair and others connected with that saner. That message originated In the prejudiced and pll ar2e mind of F. D. Culver, where the Nat Brown letter came from. He will stoop to nythlnr to cover his own unlawful acta and those of his son and associates. DENTISTS FIGHTING FINES. Attempt to Go Behind Washington Supreme Court Decision. OL.YMPIA, Wash., Oct. ' 24. (Special.) Samuel It. Stern, of Spokane, attorney for the State Board of Dental Examiners, today applied to tho Supreme Court for a writ prohibiting Judge O. V- Linn, of Thurston County, from proceeding In any manner with a suit recently tiled here by two nonethlcal dentists H. C. Llttooey and E. J. Brown against the State Board, the Dental Society of Washington, tho Dental Club of Seattle and the State of Washington. Brown and Llttooey were arrested last year in Seattle for practicing dentistry without licenses, and were fined ?200 each. Thry appealed to the- Supreme Court, and the judgment was affirmed. The dentists are now asking the Superior Court to set aside this Judgment, enjoin the state from collecting the fines, require the State Board to Issue licenses to them and to pay damages for failure to do eo hereto fore. They allege that a conspiracy ex ists among the defendants to prevent their securing licenses and practicing dentistry because they refuse to sign an ethical code prepared by tho State Board. The State Board contends that ac tion is brought to enable the men to con tinue practicing dentistry' without the le gal qualifications and evade the law, and that the matters at Issue have been de cided by the Supreme Court. It Is usual to petition the "Supremo Court for per mission to reopen a case that has been decided by It before proceeding in the lower court. Brown and Llttooey did not do this, but. In view of the fact that Judge Linn has taken no action on the complaint, and that tho Supreme Court has no intimation that he will, act there on, the writ asked was denied.

Tho road is now com pleted as far as Austin, 15 miles beyond Tipton, and work has been suspended until next Spring, when It will again be taken up and the road extended to Prairie City. It has not yet been officially announced as to where the road will go from Prairie City, but it-is rumored that the final ter minus will be Burns, in Harney County. To reach Burns from Prairie City would not be as difficult ah engineering feat as getting to Prairie City from Sumpter. for there would be but one mountain range to cross, the Strawberry Mountains. The business men of Baker City have been urging the Sumpter; Valley to extend its line Into Burns, and suitable inducements have been offered, which It Is believed will be accepted.

Or., Oct. 24. (Speclal.)-Attor-ney-General Crawford today rendered an opinion at the request of City Recorder T- an Winkle, of Albany, in which ho set tles a number of minor questions regard ing tho form of ballot to be used in muni cipal direct primary elections. Among the rulings made are these: That a blank place should be left on the ballot under the name of each office so that voters may write In the name of some per son whose name Is not printed on the ballot If they wish. That a blank place should be left under the name of each office even though there are no printed names of aspirants for that of fice, for the voters have & right to insert any name they choose. That If Democrats write the name of a Re publican aspirant on their ticket, the votes are jot all to be counted as Republican, but as of the party Indicated. The votes are to be counted separately for each party's candidates. Thus, If a man receives the plurality vote of Republicans and also the plurality vote of Democrats, he will be the nominee of both partite, but all the votes cannot be counted for him as of one part.

This "base" is school laud scattered through forest reserves. The land generally Is of little value Itself, but if the state could exchange it for Government land more desirable In character or location, tho state might profit thereby In future years. The difficulty Is to And other land that is known to be more deslrablo. Railroad companies and other holders of "scrip" have gone over the state with a fine-tooth comb und searched out all the tlmberland that Is likely to be valuable within the next quarter of a century or more. Settlers and Jlve atockmcn have already taken most of tho lands that have any promise of Im mediate value as agricultural or graz ing lands. Lieu lands, taken by the 6tate In exchange for tho school sec tions inside of forest reserves, are required to be sold at a minimum prlco of 5 an acre, and the problem before the State Land Board is to find Gov ernment lands more valuable than the schdol sections and of such a charac ter that they will evontually And sale to the profit of the state. Only one plan has yet been devised. The Board has no funds available with which to employ men to go out and hunt for desirable lieu lands. In view of this fact, it has beon proposed that the state enter Into agreements with men who are experienced in public land affairs to hunt for land worth se lecting, the state to pay 25 to SO cents per acre for the Information, subject to the approval of tho Legislature Un der this plan, before 'accepting tho land recommended, the Board would send the State Land Agent and a cruiser to examine the land and de termine whether it is more valuable than the "base" which tho state would relinquish to the Government in ex change for it. There would be several advantages' in this plan. The school sections nre very widely scattered, thero being only two in oach township, if these school sections were exchanged for lieu lands, the latter could in some instances, per haps, be located In a block so that It would bo more easily accessible to in tending purchasers. There is, of course, some question whether the state could find land that would be more worth taking in that manner. As Bui a uaioru, ujg BtHjjjjeia aavo airciay seized all the land they considered worth taking. The Board is ready to receive proposals xrpm reputable cruisers. GIVEN THE LAW'S LIMIT.

Oct. 24. Special.) After a fierce battle In the City Council tonight, the Pacific States Telephone & Telegraph Company succeeded in defeating, for the pres'ent at least, the proposed franchise for tho Automatic Telephone Company. All through the meeting the vote stood 5 to 9 in favor of the new franchise, when the vote was upon amendments or dila tory motions made by opponents of the franchise. When all preliminaries had been cleared away and the franchise was ready for third reading, the vote stood 7 to 7 on the question whether the bill should bo read a third time, and thereby final action was defeated. It was proposed to defer action until CLEAR DORA JENNINGS- November 17, and business men who were presont argued that in the meantime the old company could be compelled to give good service and agree to pay a larger tax, which result being accomplished it would be unnecessary to grant a franchise to a new company. This proposal brought A. King Wilson, attorney for the Automatic Company, to his feet, and in an emphatic manner he declared that his company will not permit Itself to be used as a club to beat tho old company, and then be refused a franchise after serving that purpose. Ho said he would ask nothing further from the pres ent Council, but after the first of the year, when the new Council has been elected, he will bo back and ask for a franchise.

VANISHED FROM VASH0N Grief-Stricken Father Goes to Har per to See Young: Woman "Who Told Tale ol Sinking of , -Launch in Paget Sound. TACOMA, "Wash., Oct. 24. (Special.) That beautiful Mary Glanconnetti. the missing ie-year-old daughter of a Vasbon Island rancher, and the poor, half-demented creature who called herself Mrs. Mabel Tate when rescued by Nelson Butts, of Harper, are one and the same person, is believed by V. Glanconnetti, tho girl's father, and by many of those who have been assisting la the search for the pretty Italian girl. Glanconnetti and a friend left Tacoma today for a visit to Harper, hoping and believing that he will find his daughter In the Harper boarding-house. Even though she be partially deranged, that is better than the fate he had feared. Glanconnetti is half-crazed with grief. Friday, with two pistera and a brother 23 years of age, Mary went Into the woods to pick huckleberries. About 3 o'clock P. M. the girl left the other pick ers, saying she knew of another patch. "Within half an hour tho brother and two ristern tried to And her and failed. A searching party was out all night. Satur day, Sunday and yesterday the search continued without result, and now, as a last hope, the father believes It waoshe who was found at Harper and who told such a distressing story. Thero are some things In the story told by the girl, who gave her name as Mabel Tate, that are Incomprehensible, unless tho-child was crazed by suffering, or, in her poor English, failed to make herself understood. Glanconnetti believes that after his daughter left her brother and sister she wandered up the county road that runs along the bluff the west side of Vashon Island. He fears she was seen on this road by Sound pirates, who, attracted by her beauty, forced or enticed her Into their boat. She may have been set ashore near Harper, or the boat may really have swamped as the girl described, and, crazed by her suffering, the girl does not know of what she is talking. Tho girl speaks poor English, and It might have been hard for her to make her Btory clear. JURORS DRUNK AT 3 LEAL TIMES Cocktail Was Provided Each Before Breakfast. SACRAMENTO. Cal., Oct. 24.
