JIBES CAUSE SHOT
Bullet Fired Into Crowd on
Capital City.
JAMES WATT IS WOUNDED
Portland Excursionists "Josh" By
standers on Wharf at Martin's
Landing and Shooting Results.
.rrest by Deputy Sheriff.
A large crowd of Portland excursionists
on board of the steamer Capital City,
who had spent an enjoyable day at
Martaln's Bluff, were thrown Into a
panic just as the steamer left the dock,
yesterday afternoon at 3:30 o'clock, when
a man shot Into the crowd on the deck
and severly wounded James Watt, one
of the deckhands. The shooting was the
result of merry-making on the part of
those on board the boat, who, just as the
steamer was leaving, were "joshing" and
making fun of a large group of men and
boys at the landing.
The Portland crowd had enjoyed the
short stay on shore and, as the Capital
City was moving out into the river for
the return trip, some one on board threw a
boiled etcg Into the crowd on the wharf.
The egg fell on the planks without hitting
any of the by-standers, but it seemed to
anger a well-dressed member of the
crowd, for without a word of warning
he whipped out a revolver and fired a
shot straight Into the crowd.
By the time the shot was fired the
steamer was about 100 feet from the land
ing. Practically every one on board saw
the shining revolver pointed Into the
crowd and a panic was narrowly everted.
-Among the excursionists were a large
number of women and when they saw
the revolver and heard the shot, they
began to scream and scurry for cover.
Only the presence of mind of the officers
nd crv and the cooler heads among the
picnicers prevented a panic. It was not
until the steamer had almost reached St.
Helens that it was discovered that Watt
was wounded. The bullet had ploughed
Its way through his right arm making
an ugly wound.
Deputy Sheriff Frank Beattie, from
Sheriff Stevens" office, was on board and
secured a good look at the man as he
fired the shot. When the Capital City
stopped at St. Helens, Deputy Beattie
landed and secured the assistance of the
Sheriff there and at once returned to
Martins Bluff. The officers searched
the place and soon ran across the man
who fired the shot. He was arrested and
locked up in the jail at Kalama and
will be held to await the result of
Watt's injuries.

JURY OUT SINCE F
BEXSOX-HYDE CASE HANGS IX
THE BALANCE.
Millionaire Defendant and Associ
ates Accused of Defrauding Gov
ernment of Public Lands.
WASHINGTON'. June 21. With rami
fications stretching from Washington
City to the Pacific Coast states for sev
eral years, the case of John A. Benson,
millionaire real estate operator of San
Francisco; Frederick A. Hyde, Henry P.
Dlmond and J. H. Schneider, Indicted for
alleged conspiracy - to defraud the Gov
ernment of public lands, has hung in the
balance before a jury In the District of
Columbia Criminal Court No. 1 since Fri
day afternoon.
The case has attracted wide interest.
After numerous delays the trial was fin
ally begun in this oity on April 1 before
Justice Stafford in' the Criminal Court.
Nearly three months were occupied In
presenting evidence, principally of a tech
nical nature. Hundreds of records from
the land office in California, Washington
and Oregon were placed in evidence and
much time consumed in their identifica
tion by witnesses.
Through the appropriation of $60,000 by
Congress last WTinter to cover the cost
of bringing nearly 200 witnesses from
California and Oregon the Government
was enabled to proceed with the case
after numerous postponements due to
lack of funds. It is estimated that the
prosecution has cost the Government
$100,000 or more.
The Indictments charged generally that
the defendants, from October, 1901, to
February, 1904, In this city,, unlawfully
conspired to defraud the United States
out of large tracts of public lands In
the West. It was alleged that Hyde
and Benson secured title to school lands
in state forest reservations by alleged
fraudulent methodB and that these titles
were then assigned to the United States
Government for selection purposes under
the act of 1897. securing the government
attorneys allege. 100.000 acres in this man
ner. Schneider, who was charged with secur
ing titles to school lands in Oregon, was
In the employ of Hyde for many years.
The prosecution endeavored to prove that
Dlmond, who was an attorney-at-law in
San Francisco, was aware of the alleged
overt acts of Hyde and Benson while
acting as their attorney.
Woodford, D. Harlan and William E.
Valk, formerly clerks in the general land
office in this city, were witnesses for
the Government and admitted on the
stand that they received money from
Benson for expediting his application in
the land office for lieu land selection.
During the trial Benson barely escaped
committal to jail for contempt of court
by refusing to answer certain questions
after Justice Stafford had Informed him
that it was his duty to do so. " The
presentation of evidence was finished
June 12, and most of the last week was
occupied with closing arguments of
counsel. Judge Stafford's charge to the
jury occupied three hours.
