THE MORNING SHEEP TRAIL ISSUE Lake County Man Would Drive Stock Over Modoc Reserve. HEARING ON MATTER HELD Effort to Force Patronage for Rail road Charged In Denial of Per mit Destruction of Range Theatened, Is Answer. t ail'vti,' w np .Tiilv 20. iSDeclaL) To determine whether or not Lake County sheep may have a permanent LAYING FOR NEW CATHOLIC M'MINNVTLLE. drive-way across the Modoc forest reserve, in California, as a means of transporting them to the San Fran cisco market, a meeting was held here last Friday under the auspices of the forestry service, with Assistant District Forester J. W. Nelson, of San Francisco, presiding. During the last month Manuel Vicente, representing the Western Meat ComDany. of San Francisco, has been In this neighborhood buying fat mut ton sheep On the supposition that the sheep could be driven through the Modoc reserve, he paid an average of 90 cents a head more than was being paid by other buyers for fat wethers, bringing the price up to $4.50 and $4.75. Permit In Refused. When a permit was requested from the forestry officials to drive the sheep across the reserve it was peremptorily refused. County Judge B. Daly Im mediately telegraphed to Senator Cham berlain at Washington, who replied stating that the hearing would be held. When Mr. Nelson and other forestry officials arrived, they were accompanied by eight stockmen from Modoc County and Ramsey M. Cox. general manager of the Nevada-California-Oregon Rail way. Tho Modoc men testified that to allow the petition would mean permitting the sheep to roam about and take the forage for which they had paid and received forest allotments. The Lake County men Insisted that they wanted only a trail one mile wide. Destruction of Range Seen. The Modoc men declared that to permit 60,000 sheep to go through would require a trail six miles wide, that most of the water was privately owned, that It would cause cattle on the range to scatter and leave the hills, and that by destroying the range it would cause many stockmen to lose fthelr Investments and virtually their homes. The railway freight rate on sheep previously had amounted to 75 cents a head. The Lake County men testified that tne sheep could be driven at a cost of 6 to 8 cents a head and charged that the object of refusing the permit was to force the Lake County men to patronise the railway. Mr. Cox an nounced that a temporary rate of 55 cents a head, had been in effect since July 1 and would terminate August 1. Pending a decision the 10,000 sheep are being held at a ranch, where the feed Is scarce and water nearly gone. It is the intention of the Lake County men to appeal to the Secretary of Agri culture and to President Wilson, if necessary, in case of an adverse de cision. DIRECTED VERDICT DENIED (Continued From First Page.) the receipt of the application, and that's all." Mr. Strahan also urged the statute of limitation as having run against the Government's case. District Attorney Reames answered that the evidence of the overt acts had all been admitted without objec tion, and that the letterhead used by Mlnard, with the words, "acting at torney for Oregon & California Rail road lands," had been intended to mislead. He referred to the testimony of B. S. Schneider, who was an agent of Minard's at North Yakima, to the effect that Minard had told him that he was "attorney for the Oregon & California Railroad," and that Schneider would take an "application," and wait for the acknowledgment from Mlnard be fore collecting the money. Jnry Consideration Desired. "Whether or not Schneider told the truth are questions for the jury to de cide." said Mr. Reames, and he referred to the testimony of other witnesses in the same manner. "The Jury must decide whether or not Harper told the truth," he con tinued "when he testified that, sitting in the' office talking to a prospect, another would come in with one of Minard's letters, and the first prospect, seeing it and hearing of the prompt ness with which it had been returned with the acknowledgment of the appli cation, would likewise Invest. "It is well established that whenever any criminal contemplates a crime, he must consider what he calls a "get away." Now, do you suppose that these man would have taken mors than tne OREGONTAN, TUESDAY. first applications in any of the towns in which they operated if it had not been for Minard's letters?" He also referred to an instance in the testimony where the witness had testified that he had paid one-half his "location" fee and paid the other half on the receipt of Minard's letter. "Good Faith" Alleged. "It is not proper for the court' to comment on the case," said Judge Bean, "but Mr. Strahan's motion la not well taken and Is overruled." A.tn.nAv nnTif marlf a similar mo tion that of a directed verdict for Lo gan and was overruled. Attorney Ryan, for Sellers, then raadf a plea for a directed verdict for hl client, contending, on the evidence that had been presented, that the case should not be permitted to go to th.. Jury. He read a transscrlpt of Harpers evidence to show that at Tenino and Cle Elum. where Sellers' friends had taken locations, following Sellers' lead, his client had acted in good faith. He urged that Sellers had not been con nected with any of the alleged overt acts, and that all of the business re lating thereto had been transacted be fore Sellers could have had any know ledge of the alleged fraud. Defense Will Open Today. "I contend that the Government has proved Mr. Sellers' innocence," he said. "'The most that Harper ever says Is that he thought Sellers knew some thing was wrong." Then he quoted authorities to the effect that nothing can be charged in a conspiracy case by implication or inference. "In the Judgment of the court" said Judge Bean, in ruling, the Govern ment's evidence is sufficient to call upon the defendant for an explana tion of his conduct to the Jury. I therefore overrule the motion." Judge Bean then Instructed the mem bers of the Jury that they were not . ....... v. r,,nnIr, that he haH any opinion on questions of facts con cerned In the case. "That is for you to determine," he said, "while the court will determine on questions of law." The defense will start the presenta tion of Its case this morning.
