THE ZUOItXIXG OREGONTAX, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 9, lIO;
m HERMANN
POINT OVERRULED
iudge Wolverton, in Cham
bers, Denies All Technicali
ties Raised by Defense.
TRIAL WILL END FRIDAY
Attorney Heney to Open Argument
Today, Case to Be Before Jury
in Three Days Statute of
Limitation Fails.
COURT 01-EBBCLE8 ALL POINTS
RAISED BY KKKMANN
DKKKNSK.
Judge Wolverton yesterday after
noon overruled every point and tech
nicality raised by the defense in the
Hermann trial. The motions submit
ted by Attorney Worthin-ton were:
That the court should dismiss the
case against Hermann because of
lack of. jurisdiction.
That the case should be taken
from the Jury because the evidence
has not 'connected Hermann with,
the alleged Blue Mountain Forest
Reserve conspiracy.
That the statute of limitations,
three years, expired between the date
fixed as the beginning of the con
spiracy, September. 1801, and the
finding of the indictment February
13. 10O5.
That the jury be Instructed to re
turn a verdict of not guilty because
the State of Oregon was defraud
ed by the conspirators, if anybody.
That the evidence of c. E. S.
Wood, r. W. Tarpiey, Horace Mc
Klnley and George Sorenson be
withdrawn from the consideration of
the Jury.
That the Holslnger report be with
drawn from the Jury.
By agreement between the attorneys
ind the court, the Hermann case will
e submitted to the jury Friday at the
iatest. Attorney Heney will open the)
irgument for the prosecution and will
consume all of today's session. Attor
ey Gearln will follow with his argu
ment Thursday morning;. Attorney
Worthing will then address the jury
md will conclude not later than Fri
lay noon. Attorney Heney will have
Friday afternoon for the closing argu
ment. Attorney Worthington yesterday aft
srnoon asked In vain for the dismissal
f the conspiracy charges pending
igainst Hermann before Judge Wolver
:on and a jury In the United States
Dourt. Attorneys for the defense asked
for a hearing in chambers on points of
law, supposed to pertain solely to the
Instructions which the court will de
liver to the jury at the close of the
argument, beginning this morning.
In the office of the Judge a number
of motions were launched, the most
Important of which was a contention
that the Oregon branch of the Federai
Court was without Jurisdiction to try
Hermann. Attorney Worthington con
tended that if a conspiracy was com
menced in September, 1901, while Her
mann visited the office of Henry Mel
arum, then Surveyor-General of Oregon,
It could not now be prosecuted, for
the reason that three years had elapsed
between the date of the conversation
and the finding of the indictment. At
torney Worthington also ocntended
that after Hermann returned to Wash
ington he was outside the jurisdiction
of the Oregon court, and that if the de
fendant performed any acts in further
ance of the conspiracy they made him
subject to the courts of the District of
Columbia, where his trial should have
been Initiated.
Lack of Evidence Alleged!
Attorneys for the defense Insisted
that the evidence did not show that
Hermann had entered Into any agree
ment whereby he became a party to
the alleged Blue Mountain conspiracy
while In Oregon In 1901 and that the
defendant could not have conspired in
any manner which would make him
subject to the local courts while Her
mann was absent from the state. At
torney Worthington cited the case of
Aaron Burr, charged with a treasonable
conspiracy, as well as a number of de
risions from the higher courts. In the
Burr case he pointed out that the de
fendant was in sympathy with a meet
ing of conspirators held on an island
In the Ohio River, but was himself in
an Kastern state, and that the Supreme
Court had reversed the verdict against
the man who desired the downfall of
the Government.
in refusing to take Judicial notice of
the statute of limitations in the Her
mann case. Judge Wolverton held to a
decision rendered by himself in the Uma
tilla conspiracy case. where Colonel
Raley pleaded that the indictment had
not been brought within three years fol
lowing the date of the agreement to ac
quire lands from the Government fraud
ulently. The court ruled that a consplr-
aoy was continuous so long as Its mem
bers failed to take positive steps to re
lieve themselves of responsibility. It was
held that if the jury should he satisfied
that a conspiracy was formed with .Her
mann as a member, the Jurors were en
titled to judge the alleged overt acts in
promotion of the success of the Blue
Mountain conspiracy alleged to have been
performed by the Commissioner at his
Washington office.
State Motion Denied.
The court overruled the motion that if
the conspiracy really existed the State of
Oregon had been defrauded of its school
lands, and that the Government had not
suffered in any manner. Attorney Worth
ington insisted that prosecution of Her
mann as one of the conspirators belonged
to the state rather than the Govern
ment. He contended that the Govern
ment could not go back of the patent Is
sued by the State Land Board to ascer
tain what fraud may have existed In the
application. Mr. Worthington argued
that when the State Board passed on
the case, the chapter was closed. Attor
ney Heney argued for the decision of the
United States Supreme Court, which de
clared that title cannot pass from the
Government to a ficticious person or a
myth. '
In passing on -the exclusion of evi
dence of C. E. S. Wood. . Tarpiey. Mc
Klnley and Sorenson. relating to money
which Man told them had to be sent to
'Washington fellows." that action on the
Blue Mountain Reserve- should receive
favorable consideration. Judge Wolverton
announced that he would advise the jury
that It must be convinced of the guilt or
Hermann from acts other than the testi
mony of those five witnesses.
In asking that consideration of the
Holslnger report of the operations of the
aohool land manipulators be taken from
th Jury, Attorney Worthington argued
that the document did not reach Her
mann until after the Blue Mountain Re
serve had been withdrawn on recom
mendation of the defendant, and that it
could not have had any effect on that
action. The report having been based
on letters from Zabriskie and "Citizen."
received prior to the withdrawal, it was
admitted with the other documents.
Government Rests Case.
Mr. Heney occupied the forenoon in
gathering loose ends of testimony con
cerning Hermann's actions affecting for
est reserves. He closed the case for the
Government at 11:45 o'clock.
H. W. Scott was recalled and continued
his testimony concerning the reputation
of Hermann for honesty and integrity.
Mr. Scott had testified that before the
land fraud inquiries he had not heard the
honesty of the defendant questioned. Mr.
Scott was shown an editorial printed In
The Oregonian February 13, 1901. saying
that Mr. Hermann had recanted his silver
views and returned to the fold of the
Republican party as his only chance to
secure an office. Mr. Scott wrote the
article.
As Attorney Heney turned the files to
find another editorial. Juror Metcalf
asked Mr. Scott what the silver question
had to do with the Blue Mountain Forest
Reserve conspiracy. -
Asked by another juror as to whether
he had personal knowledge of the facts
In the editorial of February 13, Just read
to the Jury. Mr. Scott replied that he
knew the facts personally, as he always
did when making an editorial announce
ment. '
Hermann Course Disapproved,
i
ir. Scott said that he had never
questioned the honesty and integrity of
Hermann editorially, nor had the defend
ant been accused of official corruption,
but that he had not approved Hermann's
political methods. The witness had not
heard anything against the reputation
of Hermann for honesty. Newspaper
charges may have been made against
Hermann, he said, just as they had
against Heney. but they made no im
pression on him.
Attorney Heney then called Porter Ap
plegate, State Land Agent, who had been
requested to search the files of the State
Land Office for letters written by Tim
Davenport, calling Hermann's attention
in 1897 to state school land conditions.
Applegate informed the Jury that he had
been unable to find the communications.
Heney then sought to prove the contents
of the letters through testimony by Mr.
Davenport, but way prevented by the
court ruling, which held that it had not
been shown that a thorough search of the'
files of the Land Office had been made.
' Advance Information Barred.
James H. Parker, law examiner for the
Forest Service, and for 16 years con
nected with the Department of the In
terior, then took the stand for the Gov
ernment. He testified that the rule of
the Secretary of the Interior had always
been that no information should be given
out concerning withdrawals for forest re
serve purposes until the withdrawals were
completed and made permanent.
The case was closed with the recall of
Hermann and M. J. McVean, both of
whom were questioned as to the elimina
tion of certain portions of the Wallowa
reserve. Heney introduced an unsigned
letter of August, 1902, to show that it
concerned temporary withdrawal of the
Blue Mountain Reserve as recommended
by Hermann. McVean testified that the
letter was prepared by him and referred
to making the reserve withdrawal a per
manent reserve.

LACK OF FARMERS FELT
Grain Exchange Told Tbat Breeding
Cattle Diminish Rapidly.
CHICAGO, Feb. 8. The failure of the
farm output to keep up with the growth
of population was given as the explana
tion of the high prices of food products
by E. P. Pfarrious today in an address
before the Council of Xorth American
Grain Exchanges.
Mr. Pfarrious said it was impossible
to decrease -the price of beef when this
country showed 8,000.000 fewer breeding
cattle in January, 1910, than In January,
1909.

Individuals, Lumber Companies and
V. S. Forestry Service, However,
Expended $4 5,00 0 In State.
Forestry Board Hears Report.
SALEM, Or., Feb. 8. (Special.) During
the year ending September SO, 1909, the
State of Oregon expended only $314.9 in
protecting its forests- from fire, and this1
amount was diebursed for postage, sta
tionery and stenographer's salary and not
actually in the work of fighting fires.
However, there was expended by in
dividuals, lumber companies1 and other
persons and corporations, $40,164.71 and by
the United States Forestry Service 45220.84.
These figures were given in a report sub
mitted to the State Board of Forestry to
day by A. B. Wastell, secretary of the
Board, at a meeting held in the office of
the Governor at the State Capital.
Credit Given Sheriffs.
The report states that special credit
should be given the 34 Sheriffs1 and 600
road supervisors, who served last season
as wardens, without any extra compen
sation. In reviewing the work of the forest
service in the state, Secretary Wastell
calls attention to the tremendous import
ance of the forests, which comprise one
sixth of the standing timber of the United
States. The secretary points out that the
Forestry Board should patrol and police
the forests of the -state, by the employ
ment of a State Forester and competent

Hunting Season Kills Forests.
Discussing fires and their causes the re
port says:
The hunting- season is responsible for a
great many fires, through Its opening during
the closed fire season when everything is
dry, and whenever anyone who can raise
a dollar for a license and borrow an old
shotgun, can trespass in the forests
whether of private or public ownership.
Stockralsers and homesteaders cause a great
many fires east of the Cascades, and while
we might congratulate ourselves on the few
fires reported, as a matter of fact In Inac
cessible districts large fires occasioning a
great loss raged during the past season.
One of the greatest lfarms resulting from
the fire in standing timber Is that the seed
lings springing up through the forests are
killed off. older trees being not much dam
aged, but the loss of the new growth Is
irreparable.
The Board is composed of the Governor,
I S. Hill, of Cottage Grove; S. C.

The weather in the North continues very

The steamer Yucatan will reach Valdez
from Seattle tomorrow, and may be or

water for cruising close inshore. There
are Indian villages along ShelikofI Strait,
