BRITISH LEADERS
UNABLE TO DELIVER
Agreement of Party Heads on
Home Rule Seems Unlikely
to Bring Settlement.
KING OPENS CONFERENCE
31-mbers, Somr or Wlom Are Not on
Speaking Terms, Adjourn to Meet
Again Commons Expected
to Nullify Efforts.
IXWDON. July 2L In compliance
with the Kings summons, which all
peak of In accordance with the time
honored tradition as "command." the
eight party leaders most vitally con
cerned with a settlement of the home
rule deadlock met today at Bucking
ham Palace in an effort to reach an
agreement.
The King received them wltn a
speech. He pointed out the serious
ness of the situation and the narrow
margin of difference which now exists,
and expressed the hope of a friendly
solution of all difficulties.
The eight leaders, some of whom
were not on speaking terms, included
John Redmond, the Irish Nationalist
leader, and John Dillon, who never be
fore had come Into personal contact
with the King. They discussed the
situation for more than an hour and
then adjourned.
PlarlpaJa r Agrewest.
The mere fact that they will have
another meeting shows that as far as
the principals are concerned and the
principals are, of course, the leaders
of the Liberal and Conservative parties
an agreement is in sight. Agreement
by the principals does not portend by
any means a definite settlement of any
scheme for the future government of
Ireland.
The Conservatives have the Ulster
covenanters, represented in the con
ference by Sir Edward Carson and
Captain James Craig, to reckon with,
and rremier Asquith cannot deliver
any goods without the consent of the
home rule leaders, Redmond and Dillon.
Moreover, the labor party, which is an
important faction of the Premier's
present majority In the House of Com
mons, is in revolt and there is a bolt
ing contingent in his own party.
Rejection by Commons Feared.
Politicians who are conversant with
the Inside workings predict that If the
conference reaches an agreement the
House of Commons will throw It out.
The fact that the Prime Minister
considered it necessary to resort to
such a conference is hailed by his op
ponents as a virtual surrender on his
part. His opponents prophesy and his
Radical supporters fear that he will
consent to Sir Edward Carson's loudly
proclaimed ultimatum of a clear-cut
exclusion of the whole of Ulster from
tlie projected new Irish government.
The King In the course of hi speech
today said:
"For months we have watched with
deep misgivings the course of events in
Ireland. The trend has been surely
and steadily toward an appeal to force
and today the cry of civil war Is on the
lips of the most responsible and sober
minded of my people.
-We have in the past endeavored to
act as a civilising example to the world
and to me It is unthinkable, as it must
be to you, that we should be brought
to the brink of fratricidal strife on
issues apparently so capable of adjust
ment as those you are now asked to
consider, if handled in a spirit of gen
erous compromise.
"Your responsibilities are indeed
great The time Is short. You will. I
know, employ it to the fullest advan
tage and be patient, earnest and con
ciliatory." NEW HAVEN SUIT ORDERED

and Edward D. Robbins.
Failure to Settle Surprises.
In addition to directing the suit, the
President. In his letter to Mr. McRey
nolds. declared that the decision of the
New Haven directors not to keep their
agreement to dissolve peacefully had
caused blm "the greatest surprise and
regret." and that their failure "upon so
slight a pretext" was "inexplicable and
entirely without Justification." The
department's course, he said, was just,
reasonable and efficient and should
have resulted in avoiding suit.
Accompanying the President's letter,
the department made public corre
spondence between the Attorney-General
and the President and the Attorney-General
and President Huatis, of
the New Haven. One of the most In
teresting phases of the correspondence
was contained in the Attorney-General's
letter to President Wilson, In
which there Is a decided rebuke for the
Interstate Commerce Commission for
Its action In subpenalng Mellen. and
"perhaps others flagrantly culpable,"
with the possible result of embarrass
ing the department by a claim of im
munity in return for their testimony.
ProMcnttoa "Alws7i la Mind."
In this connection the Attorney-General
makes the statement that criminal
prosecutions have been always in mind
and that there has never been "the
slightest hope that parties guilty of
criminal violations of the law would
escape."
It has been an open secret for weeks
that the department has what it be
lleves is evidence that Mr. Mellen gave
testimony to the Commission con
tradicting evidence In the possession of
the Attorney-General, and it is possible
that if any claim of immunity is raised
that it will be fought on this issue.
The letter from the Attorney-General
to President Hustis made it clear
that the department takes the position
that the New Haven directors did not
livo up to their agreement of last
March for a peaceful dissolution in
their refusal to sell their Boston &
Maine stock under conditions Imposed
by Massachusetts and put the blame
for what may follow on the heads of
these directors. The case was discussed
today at the Cabinet meeting and the
department's course approved.
Iknon Expresses Regret.
Tie president's letter to the Attorney-General
follows:
"The White House. Washington. D.
C. July Si. 191 My Dear Attorney
General: I have your letter of today
Inclosing copy of your letter of July
f to J- H. Hustis. president of the New
York. New Haven & Hartford Rail
road Company, which together dis
close the failure of the directors of
the New York. New Haven & Hart
ford Company to comply with the
terms of the settlement proposed by
them and accepted by us in the matter
of their railroad holdings.
"Their final decision in this matter
causes me the deepest surprise and re
gret. Their failure, upon so slight a
pretext, to carry out an agreement de
liberately and solemnly entered into,
and which was manifestly In the com
mon Interest, Is to me inexplicable and
entirely without justification.
"You have been kind enough to keep
me fully informed of every step the de
partment took in this matter, and the
action of the department has through
out met with my entire approval. It
was Just, reasonable and efficient. It
should have resulted in avoiding what
must now be done.
"In the circumstances, the course you
propose is the only one the Government
can pursue. 1 tnererore request ana

of J. E. Hedges, attorney for Mrs.

"According to my understanding oi

HOUSE ACTION MAY DROP
Michigan Member, However, May
Demand Vote on Motion to Expel.
Accused Man Says He'll Be
Found at Stockyards.
WASHINGTON. July 21. By resign
ing from the House of Representa
tives , James T. McDermott. of the
Fourth Illinos District, today brought
to an end the agitation In the House
that followed the publication and inves
tigation of the lobby charges made by
Martin M. Mulhall, a former agent of
the National Association of Manufac
turers. With resolutions pending proposing
punishment ranging from a reprimand
to expulsion for his conduct as dis
closed in the inquiry. Representative
McDermott announced his resignation
and asserted he would seek re-election,
"appealing his case from the judiciary
committee of the House to the people
of his district." .
Action on Report Not Sought.
Chairman Webb, of the judiciary com
mittee, said later no action would be
sought on the report of the commit
tee recommending resolutions repri
manding McDermott and officers of the
National Association of Manufacturers.
These resolutions had been fixed by
a special order for consideration in
the House Thursday.
Representative MacDonald, of Mich
igan. Progressive member of tne lobby
committee, may make an effort to
bring up a resolution introduced by
him calling for the the expulsion of
McDermott and reprimanding at the
bar of the House the National Asso
ciation of Manufacturers' officers.
Haunt Will Be at Stockyards.
Mr. McDermott made a speech In
presenting his resignation.
Unfortunately," he said, "i came to
this House a poor man; fortunately for
myself, however, taking into consider
ation the character of the charges
lade against me, I leave this House a
poor man. i nave oeen cumpeueu rul

House to borrow money from my
friends. It so happens that afterward
they became opponents of legislation
which oassed this House, atlectlng
their business as pawnbrokers and as
liquor dealers.
"It Is true I have not had the educa
tional training and perhaps the social
training and advantages that other
members of this House may boast.
I have been invited to many places
in Chicago and elsewhere that per
haps some members may think
above my social station, out i nave
preferred to associate wltn tne people
who sent me to Congress and when I
am at home in Chicago I am to be

Stockyards."
GOOD FAITH PROOF HOPE
(Continued From Flrt Page.)
adding that the booklet had been sent
nut for S5 cents with maps and other
data relative to the Oregon & Califor
nia land grant.
The booklet contained a descriptive
writeup of Douglas County, such as
is sent out by commercial clubs. It
was illustrated with cuts showing
frnit and other products, timber and
other resources. It told of the mil
lions of acres of land in tne Forest
Reserves in Oregon. It also contained
a history of the Oregon & California
land grant, with the information tnat
no prior right could be gained thereon
until a final determination of the Gov
ernment's suit to forfeit the grant
from the railroad company.
It was developed from famltn s tes
timony that both Logan and Minard
had been patrons of his company, from
which they secured "certificates"
showing that certain tracts of land had
been patented by the railroad com
pany and that no "locations" had been
filed on those tracts.
Smith testified that these "certifi
cates" did not have the value of an
abstract In showing how title had been
obtained to the land, but simply showed
present ownersmp wiu luo iwi
the tracts aescnoeu nau hui uch iu-
cated" on.
"We only sent certificates or land
for which there had been no prior ap
plication," said Smith, questioned by
Attorney Dunnls, ror .uogan.
He said that the company's books
showed that they had done J47 worth
of business for Logan, but that prob
ably this did not represent the total
amount, as at the time the certificates
were being sent out no entries were
being made of cash business.
Honesty Not Questioned.
"Where is the correspondence be
tween you and Logan?" asked Dennis.
"In possession of the United States
officials, to whom, .n their request,
it was given," said Smith.
District Attorney Reams then ex
plained that the correspondence was.
with other data, gathered by the Gov
ernment on the case and that it would
be produced if desired.
"Do you believe, from your business
dealings with Mr. Logan, that he was
making an honest effort to give claim
ants prior locations?" asked Dennis.
"Yes."
"Do you remember the last corres
pondence you had with Logan?"
"Yes."
"What was its value?"
"He asked If there were any claims
remaining unapplied for in Douglas
County and I answered that there were
but few," said .Smith.
"In case filing had been changed or
substituted," asked Attorney Strahan.
"was there any way of withdrawing
existing filings?"
"We assume that there couldn't be,"
interjected Judge Bean.
"We wanted to make that point clear
to the Jury," said Strahan.
Purpose "Generally" lnderstood.
Smith said that his office had billed
Minard for a little more than $150 for
business done for him. but that he did
not know that It was all for plats of
lands within the grant and that he
thought a part of it must have been for
certificates.
"You knew the purpose for which
these certificates were being used from
the first?" asked Attorney Ryan.
"In a general way. yes," said Smith.
"For what purpose?"
"For persons who wished to file on
the lands."
"Why was mention of the mortgage
on the land grant left out in the cer
tificates'.'" asked Ryan.
Mr. Smith said that the certificates
were not abstracts, but were simply
to certify as to one particular tract.
"I infer from this, Mr. Smith." said
Judge Bean, "that the form of the cer
tificates was suggested by the loca
tors?" ,
"I presume so, yea." said Smith.
"Did you understand that the people
with that kind of a certificate were
using It to deceive?" asKed Judge Bean.
"No."
"Didn't you know that the certifi
cates did not give the true status of
the title to the land?" asked Attorney
Ryan.
"A certificate doesn't purport to be
an abstract of title," said Smith.
"It simply states that a patent has
been issued to the land," said Judge
Bean, "and the railroad might get pat
ents outside of the land grant?"
"Yes," said Smith.
"Didn't you advertise that you would
give abstract of title to these lands?"
asked Ryan.
"No." exclaimed Smith, "absolutely
no. unqualifiedly no."
Then followed his explanation of how
the booklet was s'ent out together with
a general statement as to the history
of the land grant and maps showing
the location of the railroad lands.
C. I. Leavengood, of Myrtle Creek,
Douglas County, was another witness
called by Logan.
He said that he was practicing law In
Myrtle Creek in 1909, and that Logan
came to his office with a letter of In
troduction from Minard, asking that
information be furnished Logan as to
filings and plats on the railroad grant
lands.
Record Transcripts Furnished.
Leavengood said that he furnished
Logan with a transcript of the records
of Douglas and Coos, and possibly a
part of Jackson counties, showing the
railroad lands and the claims applied
for on them.
For this service, he said, Logan paid
him 25.
He said that he showed Logan litera
ture relating to the grant, including a
brief in a suit filed by lntervenors, in
the Government's case against the
railroad company, for the possession
of the lands.
On cross-examination by District At
torney Reames, Leavengood said he had
discountenanced filing applications be
fore the Government filed its suit.
He had said that he furnished Logan
with cruises of the land, and Mr.
Reames asked him if they were "care
ful cruises."
"Yes, sir," said Leavengood.
"As a matter of fact. In making these
cruises, didn't a man stand on a moun
tain top and take a look?" asked Mr.
Reames.
"No, sir: except in Douglas County,"
said the witness. "The county cruises
were made that way for assessment
purposes. They simply stood on top of
a mountain and viewed the landscape
o'er. But the cruises I furnished, ex
cept the Douglas County cruise, were
railroad cruises."
"Even at that time the best of the
land had been taken, hadn't it?" asked
Mr. Reames.
"Yes, sir," said the witness.
Examined again by Attorney Dennis,
for Logan. Leavengood said he had
showed Logan the opinion of Herrick,
a Washington, D. C, attorney, rela
tive to the land grant.
Sellers Takes Stand.
Sellers, on the stand in his own be
half, told a straightforward story of
his connection with Harper in the "lo
cation" business, maintaining that from
first to last he had believed Harper
and others engaged in the business
were acting in good faith.
Harper had the letterheads printed
for the firm of "Harper & Sellers,"
Harper took the money received from
the sale of "locations," Harper did the
talking to prospects, and Harper was
the moving spirit throughout. Sellers
said.
He said that he did not understand
that he was to receive commissions
for the "locations" that Harper and
Logan took in Tenino, his home town,
and Cle Elum, where he was wen
known, but Harper gave him $40 at
each place, telling him he had earned
it. The latter amount, he said, wan
to take him to Tacoma to go into busi
ness with Harper.
Sellers said he went to Tacoma and
engaged in business with Harper with
the idea that Harper could promote a
company to handle some coal deposits
near Tenino, on which he. Sellers, ex
pected to get leases.
Sellers admitted that he had signed
receipts for money for "locations,"
that he had witnessed the signing of
"applications" for "locations," and per
formed other acts at Harper's behest
and to help him while he was connected
with him, but protested that he had
not received any of the money, ex
cept for expenses, in the four months
that he was connected with Harper.
He said when he took in any money
he always turned it over to Harper.
Friends Repaid, Says Seller.
Sellers told of repaying some of his
friends who had made "locations" on
his advice after he found out that the
"location" business was fraudulent.
After he left Harper in Tacoma,
Sellers said he went to British Colum
bia and worked as a diamond drill op
erator, receiving $240 a month and
earning in all $960. He said that since
then he had worked for the Great
Northern at Wenatchee, testing bridge
foundations, and for the Northern Pa
cific at Cle Elum, which was his pres
ent employment.
He told of how, on his recommenda
tion, his father and other members of
his family took "locations."
"Did you ever meet Minard?" asked
Attorney Ryan.
"No."
"Ever write him a letter?"
"No."
"Ever hear of such transactions be
fore you came Into this court?"
"No."
Sellers explained his connection
with Hallowell. with whom he was as
sociated in selling the grant lands
after his connection with Harper, and
said that Hallowell had handled the
bulk of the money, of which he got
but little. fc .
The Jury and spectators smiled when,
on cross-examination. Sellers told ofi
the proposed Incorporation of the
-Monarch Coal Mining Company,"
with a capital of $1,000,000, of which
he was to be president and Harper
treasurer. He explained that during
