MAKES GOOD FROM BANK
Penies Story Books Show 910,000
Unaccounted For Has "ot "Been
Drlnkl'mr," He Says Poor
System of Bookkeeping.
LA CRAXDE, Or., Doc. 6. (Special.)
Receiver A. A. Roberts, a. half
brother of Conftrrssraan Ellis, whose
account have been found to bo In a
muddled condition and who has been
reported to be about 10,00." short, de
nied tonight that ho was anything like
that amount short In his cash. He also
elves the lie to the story that he has
.been speculating: In land deals and that
If. after his books have been examined,
that he is short, that It will be consid
erably less than $1001) and that he will
make (rood this amount, or whatever it
is. from his private bank account.
In spt:aklii)s of the story accusing
him of being short so many thousands
of dollars. Receiver Roberts, when seen
at his holel said:
Finds Part or Shortage.
"When I went into this office shout
five years ago I receipted for $108,000.
At that time the work was far behind.
We kept groin? ahead cleaning; up until
June last, when they inaugurated a
new system. The new system cleaned
things up more rapidly, but ten days
ago I found that somewhere I had lost
Jl.'.no. I cannot explain where It went,
but in going over the books, I account
ed for $600 of this amount. As soon as
I found there was a mixup I went to
the bank and deposited, out of my own
account, ovrr $li&0 to cover what I
then thought I was short.
"As soon as I had made that de
posit I went to the inspector at Port
land and told him that somehow my
accounts were confused and that 1
wanted lilm to come to La Grande and
Inspect the books to ascertain if pos
sible where the trouble was. .Not a
single relative came to my rescue. It
was not necessary for me to call them
in. I paid thi! deposit from my own bank
account. I can release $10,000 more to
morrow If necessary. Since making
that deposit 1 have found about $SoO of
my supposed shortage and this leaves
me short, or unable to account for,
about $9"i.
Denies He Had Been Drinking.
"The published story is all rot as far
as my being short $10,000 is concerned.
I have been sick for some time and
have teen a witness in two cases on
trial before the Federal Court in Tort
land, and this, together with my wor
rying over the mix-up In the books,
has rendered me almost helpless in
straightening things out. I deny most
emphatically the charge that I have
been drinking, and I have always lived
a moderate life. I want it distinctly
understood that the deposit came from
my own - money, and also to impress
upon the public that I called the atten
tion of the Government inspector to the
muddle in my books and did not wait
for them to lind it out."
Receiver Roberts made known the
tangle in his accounts while he was In
Portland appearing as a witness for
the Government in the trials of James
II. Barker, the Baker City banker, and
in the trial of Louis Kogahan. It is
not believed here that there will be a
serious shortage when his books have
been experted. Receiver Roberts re
quested that a special agent be sent to
La. Grande to help him find out the dis
crepancies, and It is said that he be
lieved himself to be many thousands of
dollars short. Special Agent D. A. Dun
ning was sent to La Grande, and It Is
reported that he was able to account
for JJ0O0 that Roberts thought he was
short.
Bookkeeping System Poor.
Roberts' troubles. It Is said, have
grown out of the fact that the Interior
Department at Washington has been
holding up claims ever since the land
fraud exposures, and that filing fees
have accumulated at all of the Land
Offices In the state. Some of these
applications have been passed upon and
'some of them have been rejected, and it
seems that Roberts, because of a faulty
system of keeping accounts, has neg
lected to keep track of the moneys that
he has forwarded to the Government, or
of that which he returned to the entry
men when their applications were
turned down.
FOUR ROADS WANT LAND
Scramble to Get Into Territory "Near
Priest Rapids.
NORTH YAKIMA. Wash.. Dec. 6.
(Special.) Four railroad companies are
making a scramble for the rich terri
tory along the Columbia River between
Kennewlck and Priest Rapids. Each
one Is working to get Its right of way
through first, and there may be consid
erable litigation before all claims are
settled. The four roads are the Priest
Rapids road, the North Coast, the
Northern & Southern and the Chicago,
Milwaukee & St. Paul.
The Northern Pacific Company is
throwing every possible obstruction In
the way of these new lines, which It
. considers an encroachment on its terri
tory. This road owns much of this land
in this section, which was granted to
the Northern raclfic as a bonus by the
Government when it constructed its
road through here many years ago.
The Priest Rapids road has just
brought an action of condemnation
against the Northern Pacific, in order
to get through the letter's holdings at
the foot of Priest Rapids.

VICTORIA. B. C, Dec. 6. (Special.)
For some time it has been known to the
authorities that a revolutionary propa-ejand-a
agrainst British rule in India Is
being; carried on among; the Hindus resi
dent in this province. A short time ago
a profound sensation was created toy the
discovery that at one of the sawmill
camps, on the Fraser River, was a well
equipped factory for the manufacture of
bombs which were afterwards shipped to
India end there used -with such deadly
effect against the British officials. Since
then martlinar details of a hua-e plot to
overthrow the British rule In India, and
place a Sikh ruler on the throne in that
country, now seething with sedition, have
fallen Into the hands of the secret service
officers of the British government work
ing on the Pacific Coast. The date, of the
proposed uprising In India as well as the
plan of campaign has fallen Into the pos
session of the authorities.
From Oakland on the south to Victoria
and Vancouver on the north, these secret
service men have probed every Hindu
circle with the startling result that it
was found that the revolutionary head
quarters of the party were located on
the Coast. Directions were sent to the
leaders In India by means of an ap
parently harmless code through a white
man In California to a well-known na
tive firm in Calcutta. A high caste Sikh,
who has taken his degrees at Cambridge
and studied at Columbia University, and
for gome time had his headquarters In
Xew York, is the head of the movement.
Associated with him are seven other high
caste Sikhs, who form the highest council
of the revolutionaries.
Five of the members of this central
Junta-are known to the British authori
ties, and although until a short time ago
they resided here and at Vancouver they
are now across the line. Three of these
were for a time employed at one of the
sawmills, and it was one of them who
disclosed the whole plan to a British
secret service man. and secured his
liberty as the price of disclosing the
plot. He told his story in good English,
and it was in part as follows:
"The small outrages that are now
taking place In India are part of a plan
directed from this side of the Paciiic
It is necessary to have disturbances In
several places -In order to scatter the
British troops. The main disturbance is
to take place in April when the hot
weather sets In and the white troops are
at a disadvantage, and the white officers
too, have gone to the hills. Huge stocks
of arms of the most recent Japanese
make have been smuggled in and the
only thing we are short of Is artillery.
Every native who hss had command of a
detachment under the British has been
alloted a position and a corps."
The story continues and tells of the
readiness of Egypt. Burmah and even
Hongkong to throw oft the British yoke
at the proper time.
