ported novelty materials, chiffon broadcloths and worsteds in
many new weaves.

guaranteed satins and plain taffetas.

as satins; some are strictly tailored.

i kind, and those who come
first will naturally be bene
fited. A sale like this should

SQUATTERS OUSTED
Priest and Fogarty Receive
Patents to Homesteads.
VICTORY FOR SETTLERS
Decision In Test Cases .Arising Out
of Disputed Claims on Siletz
Reservation Causes Re
joicing at Newport.
NEWPORT. Or.. Sept. 7. (Special.)
What will the squatters In the Slletx
reservation do? Is the question asked to
day. Word has been received from the
Portland Land Office that Frank Priest
and John Fogarty. on whose claims
squatters were located by Portland at
torneys, had been awarded their patents.
As these two cases were the test cases
of the Government there Is not only great
jubilation In Newport over the outcome,
but there is also the problem of what the
squatters will do.
These men paid large sums of money
to be located on the disputed claims and
have steadfastly refused to recognize
civil writs, asserting that their rights
were defined and that they would not
quit under any circumstances.
The word of the decision of the Land
Office In the test cases is taken as an
earnest of the promises made by the
Washington authorities.
Inspector Horace Jones has been de
tailed to Investigate the other con-tests
now pending and he Is now on the
ground. The settlers are much rejoiced
at this opportunity to assert their rights
and are confident of a speedy hearing.
AGENTS .ARE INVESTIGATING
Commissioner Desires to Dispose of
Contests Without Delay.
The report that the homestead claims of
Frank Priest and John Fogarty had
passed to patent was confirmed by the
Land Office officials here yesterday.
Regarding the position of the men who
squatted on these claims, it already has
been published that they have gained
nothing through their efforts to establish
a rightful claim to the land originally
filed on by Priest and Fogarty.
It is the policy of Commissioner Den
nett, of the General Land Office, as he
recently declared, to consider all squat
ters in the light of trespassers and a
further occupation of land by them after
patents have been Issued amounts to
trespass and all such trespassers can be
arrested and prosecuted under the state
statutes. If the squatters paid a fee for
being located on the lands that were being
held up in the General Land Office, they
are the loser and have absolutely no
recourse.
In the first place the proceeding was
questionable and Commissioner Dennett
has said that the Government does not
for an instant propose to back them up In
their efforts unlawfully to Intimidate or
to acquire land that had'been settled on
in good faith by others.
Several special agents have been sent
Into the Sllets district by L. R. Glavls,
chief of the field division for this district,
to make careful Investigations as to the
improvements on the different claims
which are awaiting the issuance of
patents by the General Land Office. These
Investigations are being conducted at the
direction of Commissioner Dennett who
Is desirous Of disposing of the contests
against these lands which have been held
up for about eight years in many in
stances. Where there is evidence to show that
the original settler acted in good faith
and complied with the land laws. In
residing upon and cultivating the land
included within his entry, favorable re
ports will be made by the special agents
and patents to the lands will.be issued
to settlers without further delay.

PROTESTS AS AMERICAN
Notorious Blackleg of Noble Lineage
Exhibits Naturalization Papers
in Vain Recently Released
From Siberian Prison.
ANTWERP. Sept. 7. The police here
today arrested Count Tuolosue-Lautree
on a charge of cashing stolen coupons.
The Count protested against his arrest,
claiming to be an American citizen and
displayed naturalization papers issued

tion showed he had recently been re
leased from Siberia after having been
extradited from Bremen and having
also been expelled from Spain.

various parts of Europe, and is also
known in the United States. When ar

taken to St. Petersburg to stand trial on
a charge of swindling, Savine told a ro
mantic story of his adventures and alleged
persecutions, and appealed to Emperor
Nicholas in return for the services of
his ancestors and himself to Russia to
free his name from the cloud hanging
over it, and to permit him to rejoin the
army, of which he was once an officer and
served against the Japanese in Mahehurfa.
He asserted that he was naturalized as an
American citizen in Chicago April 17. 1898,
and in his petition to the Emperor ha
set forth that he was descended from a
long line of Counts and Princes, who In
termarried with the noble French family
of Toulouse-Lautree.
Savine. In his youth, was an officer in
the aristocratic Chevalier Guards and
left the service owing to the falling Into
the hands of usurers, but later was al
lowed to serve as a volunteer in the
Turkish War of 1877. He recounted in
detail a long series of trials on various
charges which, he declared, were the re
sult of the maleovelence of his enemies,
as chief of whom he named ex-Mlnlster
of Justice Muravieff, now Ambassador at
Rome. The final result of these charges
was his banishment to Siberia, whence
after various adventures, he escaped to
America. Savine asserted that he served
as Captain of the United States cavalry
during the war with Spain and says that
he was wounded at Santiago.
