Cross-Examination Goes Into Ac
quaintance With Gore's Political .
Enemies, With View to
Establishing Motive.
OKLAHOMA CITT, Okla., Feb. 12.
Mrs. Minnie E. Bond told a jury in the
District Court today of the indignities
which, she declared, she suffered at the
hands of United States Senator Gore,
of Oklahoma. She described the at
tack, which she alleged occurred in a
Washington hotel March 24, last, the
basis for the suit on trial. In which
Mrs. Bond asks $50,000 damages.
Three other witnesses. Dr. J. H. Earp,
Klrby Fltzpatrlck and T. E. Robertson,
also testified In corroboration of Mrs.
Bond. Mrs. Bond was on the witness
stand the greater part of the day. A
grilling cross-examination failed to
shake her testimony.
Meeting at Motel Described.
According to Mrs. Bond, she met the
Senator In Oklahoma several years
ago and went to Washington last
Spring, when her husband, Julian Bond,
was a candidate for appointment as in
ternal revenue collector here. She vis
ited Senator Gore In the interest of her
husband's candidacy at his office, she
said, where on two occasions, she
charged, he seized her.
Because of the number of men about
the Senator's office she refused, she
said, to make further visits there and
by arrangement he met her at her
hotel, March 24, when, she alleges, he
caught hold of her and threw her across
a bed. In her efforts to free herself
her eyeglasses were broken, her face
scratched and her hand lacerated, she
said. In cross-examination she said her
health had been impaired as the result
f the alleged attack.
Mrs. Bond was questioned by at
torneys for Senator Gore as to her
acquaintance with politicians in Okla
homa, laying the foundation, it Is be
lieved, for introduction of testimony
in support of their contention that the
suit is the result of a political con
spiracy. Senator Gore is a candidate for
renomination at Oklahoma primaries in
August.
Women Sit Facing Each Other.
Mrs. Bond, a mild-mannered woman
and rather frail in appearance, main
tained her composure throughout the
examination. Mrs. Gore, wife of the
defendant. Bat directly opposite Mrs.
Bond throughout the day and fre
quently the gaze of the two women met
On cross-examination, the witness
admitted that she had been married to
her former husband, a man named
Farrer, two times, the second time be
cause he had not been divorced when
they first married In June, 1903. She
said they had a. child born In Decem
ber, 1903, but she did not know what
had become of it. The defense offered
to introduce a copy of her petition for
divorce from Farrar, but Judge Clark
ruled it out.
Offlce-Seekera Are Disappointed.
All the witnesses heard today in
support of Mrs. Bond admitted that
they failed to accomplish the purpose
of their visit to Washington last Spring
appointment to Federal positions.
Earp said he had a promise of one of
three positions: Fitzpatrlck sought ap
pointment as attorney-general in the
Department of the Interior, and Rob
ertson said he was there expecting to
obtain a place in the Interior Depart
ment in the event Robert A. Rogers
was named as Secretary. Robertson
also asserted that James R. Jacobs, in
whose apartment at the hotel the at
tack on Mrs. Bond is alleged to have
been made, was seeking appointment
as United States Marshal for the East
ern District of Oklahoma. Jacobs also
was not appointed. He will be called
3 a witness for the plaintiff tomor
row. Earp asserted he acted as an emis
sary for Senator Gore in an efofrt to
arrange matters with Mrs. Bond and
have her leave Washington. He visited
the Oklahoma Senator the morning
afler the alleged incident to ask con
cerning his candidacy for a Federal
position.
"Doc, they set a trap for me and I
walked Into it." Earp testified Gore
saia to mm. "I want you to see Mrs.
Bond and get her out of town."
Woman Does Not Leave.
He testified Gore told him tr nenm.
Ise Mrs. Bond anything, but not to use
nis name. ji;arp Kaid he advised Mrs.
fond to leave Washington, but that
she did not do so. Robertson and Fitz
patrlck, as eyewitnesses to the alleged
occurrence, corroborated. In substance,
Mrs. Bond's narrative. Fitzpatrlck said
Jacobs' apartment was selected for the
conference between Senator Gore and
Mrs. Bond because the hotel parlors
were crowded and Mrs. Bond s room
had not been put In order. Attracted
by the noise, he said, he went Into the
hall and had a view of the Interior of
the room through a partly open door.
On cross - examination, Fitzpatrlck
admitted that he told a friend that if
Robertson were appointed a deputy
united States attorney the matter
would end. He also said he had re
ported the matter to the Attorney-Gen
eral of the United States.
Robertson's testimony was much the
same as Fitzpatrick's. It was true, he
said, that he had expressed himself as
aggrieved and had "cussed out" Gore.
but denied having said to a Washing
ton hotel man that he would "get" the
Senator or that if Gore would pay $25
000 to "hush the matter up" he would
be able to repay a small debt he owed
a man here.

Outbreak of Contagious Maladies Said
to Be Due to Overcrowded Con
dition of Barracks.
PARIS, Feb. 12. Epidemics of scar
let fever, pneumonia, cerebro-spinal
meningitis and scarletina have broken
out in a serious form in the French
army.
Today's figures, which are incom
plete, show that 800 soldiers are in the
hospitals suffering from these diseases
at Toul, where there have been 40

troopers since January 1. At Nancy
500 soldiers are In hospitals and eight
have died since January . 2. At Lpne-

PROFIT FOR PUBLIC IDEA
BRITISH COLUMBIA BILL, PROVIDES
SHARING OF TIMBER EARNINGS.
Measure Introduced at Victoria by Min
ister of Lands Expected to
Stimulate Industry.
VICTORIA. B. C, Feb. 12. An en
tirely new plan in public policy is em
bodied In a bill presented today by
William R. Itoss, Minister of Lands, In
the British Columbia Legislature, pro
viding for adjustment of all timber
royalties. It introduces the principle
of profit-sharing by the people in in
dustries which utilize natural resour
ces. The bill provides a comprehensive
plan for fixing the price of timber cut
on limits leased by lumbermen.
Under the British Columbia system,
lumbermen may lease timber land by
paying a royalty per thousand feet on
timber as it is cut. The bill will Increase
present royalties about one-third, be
ginning January next, and provides for
royalty readjustments thereafter, at
the end of every five years for seven
five-year periods, thus covering 40
years.
The measure is expected to give in
creased stability to the lumber indus
try and to yield large future returns to
the government, probably 12,500,000 a
year, within 10 years. The government
is to determine the selling price of lum
ber for each period and add a percent
age rising from 25 per cent at the be
ginning to 40 per cent in the last
period of the increase In lumber value
above a selling price of $18.
