Government Contends Railroad For
. felted Title and Buyers, If "In
nocent" of Action, Must
Pay $2.50 an Acre.
Hearing of testimony In several of
tha "Innocent purchaser" cases grow
ing1 out of the Government's suit to
recover the 2,300,000 acres of Oregon
& 'California Railway land grant Is
now In progress at the Postorfice
Building, Miss Vivian Flexner acting
as special examiner.
The first of the cases to be heard
was that of the Gold Ray Realty Com
pany, claiming 1219 acres in Jackson
County, near Gold Hill. Dr. C R. Ray,
of Medford, an officer of the company,
testified that the land had been bought
In good faith for development pur
poses and that the land was not tim
ber' land.
B. E. Townsend, special assistant to
the Attorney-General, baa acted for
the Government in the main suit for
the recovery of the grant, and Glenn
E. Husted, special assistant to the At
torney-General, is handling the Gcv
ment's end of the cases, 45 in number,
which were instituted soon after the
main suit was started and which in
volves land sold to individuals by the
railway company.
Congrresa Ftiem Price.
An act- of Congress of August 20,
1912, provided that purchasers of the
land-grant lands in these 45 cases,
each of which Involved tracts of 1000
acres or more, could procure title from
the Government by paying J2.50 an
acre for the lands, if It should be
shown that the purchases were made
innocently" or without knowledge
that the railroad company had not
complied with the terms of the orig
inal grant. The purchases In these
cases were all made before the suit
was brought by the Government to re
cover the entires rant.
Purchasers of tracts of less than
1000 acres have not been disturbed in
possession of their holdings, which
were bought before the main suit was
instituted.
The testimony now being taken is
to determine whether or not the pur
chasers In the 45 cases were really
"innocent" at the time they bought.
Purchase Is Possible.
If they were, they may gain title by
paying $2.60 an acre to the Govern
ment, whose position is that the rail
road company has forfeited all title to
the lands by reason of non-compliance
with the terms of the grant, which
provided that the lands should be sold
to actual settlers in tracts of 160 acres
to an individual at $2.50 an acre.
The grant lands were declared for
feited to the Government by United
States District Judge Wolverton last
April, but the case has been appealed
to the Circuit Court of Appeals at San
Francisco, end likely will be taken to
the United States Supreme Court be
fore it is finally settled.

From 64 to 80 miles an hoar was the
wind velocity at North Head for 12
hours ending at 6 P. M. yesterday, the
blow being from the southeast, and it
was forecasted that the gales would
continue . during the night and begin
to diminish today. No damage was
reported to vessels, but some were
storm bound at all Oregon and Wash
ing-ton ports.
' "Observations made at North Head
at 6 P. M. today showed the wind to be
blowing 64 miles an hour from the
southeast, with the sea very rough,"
said District Forecaster Beals last
night. "The highest velocity during
the previous 12 hours was 80 miles, at
tained sometime after 10 o'clock In the
morning, for at that time it was re
ported 68 miles and soon after 6 o'clock
in the morning it was 74 miles an hour.
There has been a good strong gale
there all day. but I think that the worst
is over and it will diminish tomorrow.
Storm warnings were continued during
the night."
The Merchants Exchange reported
that the steamer Roanoke, for San
Diego and way ports, went to sea at. 4
o'clock yesterday morning and the
steamer Siskiyou, from San Francisco,

ish steamer Oceano and the Japanese
steamer Tenpaleon, for the Orient;
schooner Churchill, for the West Coast;
schooner Nokomls, for Payta; Belgian
ship Qassal, Norwegian ship Clyde,
British ship Langdale and British barks
Crocodile and Inverurie, for the United
Kingdom, and the steamers Oliver J.
Olson and Saginaw, for California.
While vessels on the way up the
Coast probably will have no smooth
time of it, the last storm proved that
there was nothing to prevent the fleet
from gaining shelter inside. Of tramps
and coasters to arrive during the period
of galea but one, the Baoakoko Maru,
ran for Port Angeles.
LE PIXIETl LATEST ARRIVAL
Five Squarerifcgers Xet to Be Dis
patched Abroad With, Grain.
With the coming today of the French
bark Le Pilier, which left up yesterday
in tow of the steamer Ocklahama, there
will be five sailing vessels here for
grain and a sixth, the French bark
Noemi, is on the way from the Golden
Gate. She got away from there Janu
ary 6 and the Le Pilier two days later,
yet the Le Pilier has been in the river
since Tuesday noon.
The La Bretagne practically finished
her cargo last night and the La Roche-
aquelein, Chile and Eilbek remain to
be dispatched. The Japanese steamer
Tenpaison Maru arrived down yester
day with a wheat and flour cargo for
the Orient and with the Den of Airlie
and Sithonia to get away by the first
of the week, there will be a good show-
ng for the first month of the New
Year. The Kassal, Inverurie and Clyde,
which cleared in December, are yet at
Astoria, but the Hinemoa, finished the
same month, got to sea during a calm
spell Wednesday. The Crocodile and
Langdale, of the January fleet, are also
In the lower harbor.
CHEfOOK TO BE DRYDOCKED
Columbia May Be Unable to Dig Ow
ing to Storm.
In the task of overhauling the big
Government dredge Chinook operations
have progressed to such a point that it
is intended to shift her from old Alaska
dock tomorrow morning to the public
drydock at St. Johns, where she will
be lifted to have her stern bearings re
placed. When that work ends the bar
digger will yet be in the hands of me
chanics, for she is to be equipped with
new 30-inch pumps and engines of 1000-
horsepower to drive them, so when she
returns to the mouth of the river in
May. her capacity will be greatly in
creased.
General Bagnall, assistant engineer
in charge of the lower river improve
ments, is to proceed to that district to
day and will ascertain If any harm re
sulted from yesterday's blow. Because
stormy conditions followed so soon on
the heels of the recent gales, he doubts
If the dredge Columbia can .resume
work behind Sand Island for a time.

the tAmer lean -Hawaiian service, got

for Atlantic Coast ports. The Paraiso
is to connect with the liner Columbian
that sails January 30 from San Fran
cisco, and salmon sent on her will be

addition to New York. The regular
schedule of the line provides for New
York delivery only, but to clean, up
salmon awaiting shipment the rate was
dropped from 60 to 40 cents on 100
pounds for the Columbian's voyage.
There is said to have been no change

Pending Contract Change.
As a contract entered into last year
