DAY AS WITNESS
Never Saw Benson After the
Stormy Interview in San
Francisco.
DID NOT SUSPECT CLERKS
Letter Denouncing Hyde-Benson
Ter Seen Till Produced in
Court Why He Retained
Letters From Zabriskle.
"WASHINGTON. April 5. The third day
of Blnger Hermann's testimony In his
trial for the destruction of certain letter-book
while commissioner of the Gen
eral Land Office, was beg: tin with a line
of questions Intended to show that Her
mann had no information or interest in
the Hyde-sBeneon-Dlmond-Schnelder com
bination. Hermann said he had never
ween Benson after the stormy interview
with him in San Francisco regarding:
which he testified yesterday. The wlt
rtes had no recollection of ever having
met Hyde.
Trusted Harlan and Valk.
As to Harlan and Valk, clerks in the
Iand Offlre, who hav testified t?4at they
were at the same time in the employ of
Benson. Hermann said he had no knowl
edge or suspicion of such a condition. He
Always had the utmost confidence in
Harlan and - Valk.
Regarding" the letter signed "Citizens of
the United States," which described the
operations of the Hyde-Benson combina
tion, written In 1900 and placed in evi
dence by the prosecution. Hermann said
that he had never seen nor heard of It
until It was produced In the court. The
Indorsement of this letter in Valk's hand
writing, "Honorable Commissioner, has
Fen this twice." Herrman said was a
mistake, as he had never seen the letter.
Action on ZanrUkie Letters.
The letters written by Mr. Zabriskle In
1903 to Hermann, in which the latter was
informed of the Hyde-Benson operations,
was the subject of extended testimony
upon the part of the witness. He said he
had known Mr. Zabriskle in California,
and the facts disclosed In Mr. Zabriskle's
letter were the first he had had regard
ing the alleged fraudulent operations of
the Hyde-Benson combination.
He retained the Zabriskio letters for
the purpose of preventing the "traitor
In the office, whoever he might be," from
knowing of the steps being takn to run
down the frauds. Hermann took W. J.
McGee into his confidence, Mr. McGee
being an old employe of the office, and
through him directed fecial Agent Hol
elnger to make an Investigation of the
Benson-Hyde operations.
Hermann disclaimed acquaintance with
the various Individuals connected with
the alleged fraudulent land conspiracies
In the West. Ho repeated his annual
complaint against the operation of the
lieu land law, as contained In his annual
reports, which was read to the Jury by
Attorney "Worthlngton.
DREW WOMAN INTO PLOT
Nicholas Explanation About Dia
monds Killed by Her Evidence.
CHICAGO, April 5. The state today
sprang a surprise upon the defense in
the trial of Leonard Leopold and How
ard Nicholas, for the murder of Mrs.
Marguerite Leslie, the actress.
At the opening of court. Assistant
State's Attorney Short called to the
witness stand a tall, well-dressed
woman who gave her name as Miss
Phyllis Campbell, of Indianapolis. She
testified that she had received from
Nicholas about a week ago a letter In
which he requested her to assume the
name of "Grace Klmberlln.' She has
known Nicholas for some time.
Nicholas, while upon the stand, testi
fied that be had loaned some money to
a woman named Kimberlin, and that
as security she had given him one of
the diamonds which was found in his
possession after the murder of Mrs.
Leslie, and was supposed to have been
stolen from her.
Miss Campbell declared that she had
rtever borrowed money from Nicholas
and had never placed any diamonds in
bis possession.
Nicholas then took the stand In his
own defense. He denied that he had
ever asked Miss Campbell to assume
the name of Kimberlin. but admitted
having written her a letter. At the
conclusion of his testimony the case
was closed and the final arguments
were begun.
DEAL WITH THE PRESIDENT
Vrlter of Threatening Letters Ac
owed of Insanity.
NETW TORK. April 5. Marcos Florea,
who came here from San Antonio. Tex..
n arrested here today on a charge of
wrltlnp letters to the TTnited States Pen
sion Bureau threatening to "deal with
rreatdent Roosevelt" unless action was
taken on a certain pension application.
After an examination before the magis
trate. Flores was committed to Bellevue
for examination as tn his sanity.
For some time past the Pension Bureau
has been receiving a series of rambling
letters from this city, all of which were
signed "Marcos Flores." They demanded
that "Justice be done" In the case of his
brother's claim for a pension. Bach was
more Insistent than the preceding one
and finally It was announced that. If no
attention was paid to the claim and the
pension was not granted, he would go to
the White House and, if he did not get
redress there, he "knew what he would
do."
FORCES HAND OF CONGRESS
President Will Compel Reform by
Enforcing: Anti-Fencing Law.
OREGOXIAX NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington. April 6. The time will probably
come when Congress will give an at
tentive ear to what President Roosevelt
has to say on the public land question,
but until that time arrives the President
will give his views directly to the people.
At the last session of Congress the
President called attention to the provl
sl ons of the a t of February 36. 1885,
prohibiting the erection of fences on the
public domain. He went so far as to
express his opinion that the law in Its
existing form works considerable hard
ship on the stockmen of the West and
bowed his clear disapproval of the law.
but nolnuftd out thai, as long as the law
remains on the statute books, he, as
President. Is compelled to see that its
provisions are enforced.
The President believes that fencing
under proper restrictions would do more
good thatt harm, nevertheless the law
prohibits all fencing of the public do-
main and it is up to tfim to see that the
law Is enforced. Every opportunity was
given Congress to modify the law of 1885;
a law that has been a dead letter for
many years, but Congress ignored the
question altogether, and now the Presi
dent will prosecute men who are main
taining fences in defiance of the law.
If legitimate stock: interests are hurt, the
men affected can blame Congress, not the
President.
Aside from his determination to enforce
the law, the President is trying to force
the hand of Congress by bringing to bear
the pressure of public opinion. When the
people of the West fully realize that, the
President Is determined, they are very
apt to let their Senators and Congress
men know that It is time to change the
law, but until public sentiment is aroused
Congress Is not apt to act.
The administration would like to see the
fencing law modified, but at the same
time would like to see a new law enact
ed providing for leasing the public range.
The President looks at the grazing prob
lem from several viewpoints. Primarily,
he believes that the range Is a valuable
asset, and it Is only fair that the Gov
ernment should derive some revenue from
its use. Just as it now derives a revenue
from its forests. Secondly, he has be
come convinced that under the leasing
system the public range would be per
petuated, and would not be overgrazed,
as has been, done in many instances when
no restrictions were imposed. Thirdly,
he believes that under a leasing system,
the. range wars of old days would entire
ly disappear; that the small stock-owner
would be protected against the cattle
baron, and that bloodshed on the ranges
would become a thing of the past. He
does not favor a big tax, merely a nomi
nal sum, enough to pay the cost of ad
ministration and yield a slight revenue In
addition.
Under such a system fencing would be
permitted by the men holding Govern
ment leases and, had Congress enacted
such a law. many a mile of fence that
must now be destroyed would have been
allowed to stand. Naturally the fence
owners, though they be violators of the
law, will feel aggrieved, but they have
no ground for resentment towards the
President. The only way they can get
relief Is to bring pressure to bear on
their representatives In Congress. This
reform is bound to come; It may not
come In a year, but it will come before
long and. when it does come. It will be
substantially what the President so earn
estly urged last session.
Secretary Garfield, by direction of the
President, has Issued the following in
structions to special agents of the Land
Office, In regard to the removal of fences
on 'the public domain:
It la necessary for me to ad vis you
that the law remains in full force and ef
fect, and that persons who maintain illegal
fences will he HableMo prosecution.
You will instruct your special agents that
the making of caps or maintenance of gate
ways In illegal fences upon the public do
main will not relieve from liability under
the act; but that leaving fence posts stand
ing after the wire has been removed will
not be considered a violation of the act;
that when, on valid claims or patented
lands, fences ara maintained hlch cut oft
access to public lands, prosecutions should
be brought In order that an authoritative
court derision may be obtained; that so
called "drift" fences must be held to he
Illegal under section 3 of the act of 18S5,
unless they are upon valid claims or pat
ented lands; that persons who Interfere In
any way with the free use of the public
domain by those who are legally entitled
to go upon it, such as prospectors, settlers,
travelers, persons in charge of livestock, or
any class of livestock itself, must be prose
cuted when the facts are brought to your
attention.
The Department of Justice will act
fromptly and vigorously to prosecute vlo
stors of the act of 1S&5 when definite com
plaint Is made to a United States District
Attorney, and you are directed to take
steps for the immediate prosecution of vio
lators of that act whenever violations are
discovered either by your special agents or
through direct Information and complaint
from private persons.
Persons injured by Illegal fences should
make complaint to- officers of the Depart
ment of Justice or the Department of the
Interior.
It Is to be regretted that no discretion
is given the Government to permit the con
tinuance of fences that are clearly for the
benefit of all Interests. Undoubtedly some
hardship and loss of property, especially to
the small stockowner and the homemaker,
will fallow the enforcement of this law.
hut so long as It Is on the statute books it
must be enforced without considering the
Teasons which led to any violation.
MERIT SELECTS CONSULS
Pull "o I,onger Effective, but Ex
amination Decides Fitness.
ORBGON'IAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington, April 5. Political pull no longer
frets a man a position in the consular
service. Now It Is merit. The consular
reorganization law passed at the last
session of Congress put the consular ser
vice on the merit basis and provided that
no men should be appointed who couM
not pass an entrance examination framed
by the State Department. That policy is
now being adhered to rigidly.
Tea certain extent a Senator can as
sist a man who seeks a consular ap
pointment He can have his friend
"designated for examination' and. after
receiving such designation from the Presi
dent, the man can take the examination,
but it does not follow that ha will be ap
pointed. The practice of the State De
partment is to examine a number of can
didates, several times the number re
aulsite to fill existing vacancies, and then
to aDooint to the vacancies the men
making the highest marking at the ex
amination. There Is no assurance even
that the man who passes the examina
tion will be appointed. His only chance
is in passing a better examination than
those who compete with him.
Another requirement is now Imposed by
the State Department. Before a man can
be desisnated for appointment it must
be shown that he can speak at least one
other language than English. At the
present time there is considerable demand
for men who can speak Spanish, for there
are a. number of vacancies In the consular
service in South America, where Spanish
is currently used. But even with these
restrictions, the State Department is
having no difficulty in filling the vacan
cies as they occur, for the number of ap
olications far exceeds the number of
places to be filled.
PRICES ARE STILL HIGHER
t
Stanford White's Furnishings Are
Eagerly Sought by the. Public.
XEW YORK. April 5. The sale of the
furnishings of the late Stanford White's
home was continued today, the prices re
alized being even higher than those re
ceived yesterday. The receipts for the
day amounted to $27,398. making a total
of $47,924 for the two days' sale. The
highest single price paid was $1200 for an
Afghan rug.

Several Chinamen had narrow escapes.
A number of women who live In the

The reflection was easily seen in this
city.
Steveston consists of little else but
mammoth salmon-packing plants and

were destroyed.
STATE FUNDS EMBEZZLED
West Virginia's Assistant Adjutant
General Accused of Theft.
CHARLESTON. W. Va.. April R. The
Military Board of Surveyors, which has
been Investigating- the accounts of the
Assistant Adjutant-General of the state,
appeared before the grand jury today and
secured the indictment of Colonel A. S.
Hutson, who has held that office since
1899. during three state administrations,
on the charge of embezzlement of $800. A
warrant was issued and he was arrested.
The Indictment covers but one specifi
cation and. while the state officials and
Board of Survey are reticent, it has be
come generally understood the trouble has
extended over a period of years and that
the amount may reach or exceed $30,000.
During the Spanish-American War Colo
nel Hutson served as Captain of Company
H, Second West Virginia Infantry, and he
received his present appointment In 1S99,
having held it continuously ever since. He
has during that time had virtual control
of the office. Tonight Colonel Hutson was
released under a $15,000 bond.
