HOT WORDS FROM
KRIBS, ON STAND
District Attorney McCourt
Arouses Ire of Witness in
Land-Fraud Case.
COURT - STOPS HOSTILITY
Government Official Provokes Ke-
buke When He Declares That
' C. A. Smith's Agent AVas Xot
Giving Truth In Testimony.
Applying the short and ugly word to
T'nlted States District Attorney John
McCourt, Defendant Frederick A. Kribs'
yesterday afternoon lost his self-poise
for a moment in the Federal Court.
Following- his hot word. Kribs arose in
the witness box as if to assault the
G-overnment officer.
The incident came at the end of a
gruelling cross-examination of Kribs
by the Government attorney, during
which Mr. McCourt had repeatedely re
ferred to the plan under which Freder
ick A. Kribs, as Agent for Charles A.
Smith, a millionaire timber owner of
Minnesota, had acquired title to 8000
acres in Linn County, Oregon, and
which the United States is now at
tempting to recover.
In attempting to show that Kribs
had knowledge of the frauds perpe
trated in the location of the lands by
McKinley and Puter. through the use
of "dummies," McCourt reverted again
and again to the mortgages and deeds
given by the entrymen on the day of
final proof, at the Roscburg land of
fice. Contradictory Statements Made.
Kribs had -made contradictory state
ments as to payments of money and
concerning the purpose of the mort
gages, which he at first contended had
been taken to cover the payments to
the land office and a $200 location fee
to Puter and McKinley. The witness
finally admitted that all the money
he ever paid out on behalf of the en
trymen was the land office fees of
541 1, although the mortgages called for
S00. Kribs said that Puter received
the balance when Kribs wrote a check
for the purchase price of the lands
following the acquirement of deeds
from the entrymen.
Taking up another mortgage, Mc
Court inquired what was done with
that money.
"I have answered that question a
aor.en times," said Kribs.
"Yes, and you have not told the
truth." responded the District Attor
ney. '"You lie." cried Kribs. as he strug
gled to get out of the witness box.
At this juncture Judge Bean put an
tnd to prospective hostilities with an
Idmonisliment to Kribs to resume his
teat.
Chief Witness for Defense.
Kribs was the chief witness for the
Defense and occupied the stand during
the entire day. With the conclusion of
his testimony the case was closed un
til July 15. when the arguments will
be made at Portland. In the mean
time depositions- will be taken at Min
neapolis. Kribs recounted the story of his ac
quaintance with Puter and his becom
ing interested in Rook Creek lands in
much the same manner as did Puter. in
his testimony repudiating talks with
President Roosevelt. Kribs admitted
that after visiting the lands in April,
1300. he agreed to lend Puter and Mc
Kinley $600 for each entryman, but
was influenced to that action by a
statement of Puter that the latter be
lieved he could secure the lands for
Pale. Tt was Smith's money which was
used for the loans.
Knowing that Puter and McKinley
did not have the money to redeem the
mortgages, Kribs testified that his
purpose in advancing the money was
to ultimately acquire all the lands by
purchase.
Although present at the making of
final proofs and knowing of the con
tests instituted by the Northern Pa
cific, in which it was alleged that Pu
ter and the Mealy brothers had used
"dummies" In making filings on the
lands, Kribs insisted that lie purchased
the property for Smith in good faith,
and that he knew nothing of any
frauds connected with their acquisi
tion. Knowledge Denied.
It was InMstod by the witness that
he never heard of any fraud until
nearly a year afterward, when Puter
and Smith had a "big row" over the
payment of money which Puter claimed
to be due him. At that time, Kribs
said. Puter told him that he would go
on to Washington and expose the
whole deal.
"I purchased the land for Smith upon
a commission of 27 1-2 cents per acre,"
eaid Kribs. "When the deeds, which
were taken Jn the name of Wind, were
turned over to Smith, that ended my
connection with the case, until 1901.
when Special Agent Stratford called
me up and wanted to know where the
entrymen were located. I then as
sisted In gathering the affidavits, but
was never personally present when
evidence was taken. I never dictated
replies by nodding my head at wit
nesses, nor paid any money to any of
the witnesses.
"Later I made two or three loans to
Stratford and also purchased a 40-acre
tract of timber from him for $400. I
also loaned Special Agent Loomis
money. In both instances I consid
ered that by treating them white
would receive the same treatment.
They might do me some favors, but I
never asked either of them to do any
thing illegally."
Detailed Account Given.
Witness Kribs Tendered a detailed
account of all the money he had ex
pended for Smith in securing the lands.
omitting the loans to the land agents.
Cross-examination developed the fact
that Kribs was not In the habit of
making loans on timber, and that he
did not collect interest on the mort
gages when they were cancelled. In
that statement he contradicted the af
fidavit he had previously furnished the
land office.
C. A. Smith, who is now the owner
of record of the lands which the Gov
ernment seeks to recover, has figured
in land purchases in his own state of
Minnesota. After purchasing a section
of timber land from the State Auditor
at a nominal price, the matter was in
vestigated by the State legislature
and hushed up. Subsequently, Gover
nor Knute Nelson brought a suit
against the c. A. Smith Lumber Com
pany and recovered the land, together
with the value of the timber cut to
date, amounting to $10,000. Smith is
now a member of the Board of Regents
of the University of Minnesota and one
of those in charge of school lands ofj
me state valued at many million dol
lars. OREGON TRCXK IS ENJOINED
Right of Way Controversy at Sher-
ar's Crossing Not Compromised.
Failing to compromise the contro
versy as to the right of way over lands
in the Deschutes canyon, the Eastern
Oregon Land Company this morning
will ask the United States Court for a
permanent, injunction, restraining the
Oregon Trunk Railway from construct
ing its tracks above a dam site and
ditch claimed at Sherar's Crossing.
The Eastern Oregon Land Company
acquired the lands from heirs of John
H. Sherar, and has claimed a prior
right to occupancy of the canyon for
construction of a power dam. It is al
leged that the railway company de
stroyed the value of the property.
The Deschutes Railway Company
yesterday filed a statement in which
Chief Engineer Kyle sets out corre
spondence with the engineers for the
and company, dated in October and
nclosing a map of the proposed cuts
and fills for railroad purposes, the line
being located 100 feet above the pro
posed dam. The railroad official al-
eges that no attention was paid to the
notice or the map.
When the suit was begun it was I
said by railroad officials that it was
FIRST CANNERY TENDER ON
M Alt V B.f BlILT BY ASTORIA IROX WORKS.
SEATTLE, "Wash., May 5. (Special.) The cannery tender Mary B, "built by
the Astoria Iron Works for George T. Myers & Co., of Seattle, arrived on Fuget
Round last week and will leave in a few daja for Alaska. The Mary B Is pro
nounced by many prominent cannery men to be the finest cannery tender in com
mission and the reason therefor was a carte blanche order given the Astoria firm
by Mr. Myers, who is a son of the late George T. Myers, of "this city. The
craft is 72 feet long, 14 feet beam. Power from a four-cylinder gasoline engine
gives the boat a speed of 12 miles an hour and a separate engine Is used to op

20 00-can die-power searchlight. Fuel tanks for the engine have a capacity of 700
gallons, sufficient to run the craft 1000 miles. The fish tanks have a capacity

B. SHEA OVEREATS OX OUT
LAY OF 5 CENTS DAY.
Laborer Tells His Scheme to Beat
High Cost of Iiiving, Which
Works All too Well.
The high cost of living has no terrors
for J. B. Shea, a laborer, living at 308
First street. Five cents a day is his
regular allowance for purchasing eat
ables. Yesterday he ate so much that he
was 6eized with cramps and it was neces
sary to call a physician to relieve nim
by means of a stomach pump.
Shea's system is a good one, only ne
has no discretion as to how much to eat,
or rather when to stop eating. He was
picked up by a patrolman, lying on the
sidewalk groaning in agony and nibbing
his stomach with his hands. Dr. W. i..
Stewart was called and attended him.
After he had been relieved at police
headquarters he told of his system,
which, owing to its great success, came
near proving his ultimate undoing. He
had Just visited a North End saloon, ne
said, as is his regular custom, and. after
purchasing a glass of beer for 5 cents,
partook of the free lunch.
I do that every nay, ' ne saia. 10-
day there were so many different kinds
of things that I ate too much. The vege
tables were particularly good and I guess
that is what gave me cramps.
"Since it has come to cost so much
to live I have been eating at the free
lunch counter altogether; buying one glass
of beer each day and eating enough at
the time to sustain me through the day.

STEAMBOAT - OWNERS APPEAL
Ruth, Cascades, Indrapura and
Spencer Cases to Go Vp.
Appeals to higher courts of the United
States were yesterday perfected by the
owners of the steamers Ruth. Cascades,
Indrapura and Charles R, Spencer. The
four vessels were recently victims of
decrees rendered in the Admiralty Court
for Portland, three of the decisions being
delivered by Judge Wolverton and one
by Judge Bean.
The steamer Ruth was held to have
been at fault at Clackamas rapids in
Octoher. 19(17, when she attempted to pass
the Oregona, a dragging cable belonging
to the latter ship catching in the paddle
wheel oC the Ruth, wrapping around and
cutting off both legs of Virgil K- Poland,
a deck hand of the Oregona. Poland was
awarded a verdict of $12,000.
On November 22. 1908. the steamer
Lurline was sunk in collision with the
Cascades, both vessels being held at fault
by the court. In the apportionment of
damages the Cascades was ordered to
pay the Lurline $4S06.15. the Lurline
having been found to have sustained a
greater degree of Injury. The collision
occurred above Rainier during a fog. It
was found that the Cascades was off her
course, but proceeding at slow speed. The
court pointed out that the evidence
showed the Lurline to be on her course
but running through the fog bank at
full speed.
H. M. Newhall & Co. were awarded
$1106.30 as damages to a cargo of grain
bags shipped from Hongkong on the
Indrapura. One of the holds of the ves
sel is alleged to have become flooded
through a pipe leading to a water bal

IMPAIRED VITALITY
I promise you results so prompt and positive that you will not need any
one to point out the Improvement. In short I will give absolute results
In every case and a written memoradum to refund every oent if you are
not perfectly cured.
I want to talk with the men who have tried other methods and found
them unavailing. I want to talk with the men who have almost given
up hope of being cured. I can convince them by actual cures.

DR. TAYLOR,
The Leading Specialist.
My practice is the largest be
cause I invariably fulfill my prom
ises. Varicose Veins
Under my treatment the most
aggravated cases of varicose veins
are cured in a few days' time.
There is nopaln and it is seldom
necessary that the patient be de
tained from his occupation. Nor
mal circulation is at once restored
and the natural processes of waste
and repair are again established.
If you are afflicted with varicose
veins consult me at once. Delays
can hut bring on aggravated con
ditions and nervous complications
Involve the general health.
Contracted Ailments
In the treatment of contracted
ailments I offer a service such as
no other physician can render. The
remedies 1 empToy have a most
thorough and positive action in
cleansing the membranes of all In
. fection and subduing all inflam
mation. My manner of application
insures absolute thoroughness, and
removes every possibility of re
lapse or a chronic stage. My cures
ar not only thorough, but are ac
complished in the briefest time
possible.
