GOVERNMENT'S FIGHT TOLD It I Witness Declares That Search of Records Showed Hallway Pajing Taxes on Land It Sold, Omit ting to Protect Holdings. That he had never given a shred ot encouragement to applicants for tim ber claims within the Oregon & Cali fornia Railroad land grant In Oregon, but that he had discouraged them, was thA testimony arlven In United i-tates District Court yesterday by B. D. Town send In the trial of W. F. Mlnard. of Portland, and J. W. Logan and E. J. Sellers, of Tacoma, accused of fraudu lently selling "locations" on lands within the grant Mr. Townsend's was the last Impor tant testimony of the trial, and shortly after it was given the Government rest ed its case. The defendants also rested, and the first step In the proceedings that probably will send the case to the Jury late today was taken with the opening statement of District Attorney Reams, who declared that the Govern ment was clearly entitled to a verdict of guilty as against all three of the de fendants. Mr. Townsend, as special assistant to the Attorney-General, was In charge of the Government's successful suit against the railroad company for the forfeiture of the lands, and came from Wyoming to be a witness. He resigned as spe cial assistant last April to enter private practice. Evidence In Rejhottnl. "I have always held that the pro Tlslons of the grant were enforceable only by the United States Government, Mid Mr. Townsend. questioned by Dls trict Attorney Reames. adding that the Government's attitude throughout the suit had been for absolute forfeiture. Mr. Townsend was called by the Government in rebuttal, as an Import ant portion of the evidence had been circular issued by Mlnard telling of the "aDnortunlty" to "locate" on the grant lands, in which the statement was made that it was the "opinion of Government officials" that claimants who followed the circular's advice would get title. Mr. Townsend had been mentioned Indirectly by tho de feme as having Deen me source 01 this ODinlon. "Did you give out the Information that in your opinion the applicants would get title to the land?" asked Mr Reames. "So." was the answer, and on cros- examinatlon by Attorney Strahan. for Minard. Mr. Townsend gave specific instances where he had told people that they had no chance as claimants. Railroad Salt Described. Mr. Townsend told of the great and palnstakig labor required In the prep aration of the case for the forfeiture of the lands, and declared that In searching the records to ascertain the true titles to the lands he found errors both in the county and railroad records. "For example," he said. "I found the railroad company carrying on their books and paying taxes on lands that they had sold, and making no claim to lands to which they had title." He said that when he began prepara tions for the suit he found CS suits against the railroad company, brought by people who declared they were actual settlers. "How many of these people were actual settlers I do not know," said Mr. Townsend. "It was brought to my at tention that there were 20 or 25 actual settlers who did not bring suit" "Can you state approximately how many mistakes you found In check ing the county records of the various counties?" asked Attorney Strahan, for Minard, on cross-examination. "I should say, without preparation, ISO." said the witness. There were not as many mistakes In the railroad as In the county rec ords. Mr. Townsend said. Railroad Sales Recalled. "The court permitted a great many Interveners, did it not?" asked Strahan. "Tes. there were 15 petitions of in tervention." said Mr. Townsend, "with a total of 4000 or 5000 persons." "Did you ever object to these par ties being made interveners?" "Not prior to Judge Wolverton's rul ing on the railroad company's demur rer, April 20. 1912. but I did after that. The railroad company objected prior to that, 1 think." "What was your reason for object ing then?" asked Strahan. "We had decided that the position of the Government was correct, and tnat there could be no Interventions." Mr. Townsend said that there were 27 6 persons or concerns who had pur chased lands from the railroad com pany, the largest purchase being 75,000 acres, the next 60,000 acres, the next 40,000 and on down to purchases of 2000 acres, of which there were 32 instances. G. W. Riddle, of Riddle, Douglas County, formerly receiver of the United States Land Office at Roseburg. was called as a character witness against Minard, and said that his reputation for truth and veracity was bad. DEATH LAID TO COMPANY Northern Pacific Terminal Blamed for Fatality by Coroner's Jury. That the Northern Pacific Terminal Company was responsible for the death of Basil Peterson, a night clerk, who was run down by a freight car in the terminal yards last Thursday, was the verdict of the Coroner's Jury yesterday. Peterson sustained a crushed chest, from which he died almost instantly. "Death was caused by having been run over by a car which was being switched in said yards," says the ver dict. "In the minds of the Jury the Northern Pacific Terminal Company Is responsible for his death." Peterson had lived in Portland but a short time. He Is survived by a sister, in Seattle, and his father, who lives In the Middle West 7000 IRONWORKERS STRIKE 30 Per Cent Wage Increase Asked by Xew Tork Union. NEW YORK, July 27.

GIRLS "KIDNAPED" St Johns Children, Hysterical, Accuse Men. AUTO DRIVE PROMISED Clara Toung, 1 1 , and Viola Gra y, 13, Rush From Hills to Will bridge to Tell of Escape From Trio After Episode. Two little girls, hysterical and hardly able to speak, rushed down the hillside and into the first house they could find at Willbridge. close to the Standard Oil Company's works near Llnnton, last night, declaring they had been kidnaped by three men at fat. Johns. The men told them they would be taken for a nice automobile drive. said the girls, and then, crossing the river by the ferry, took them up Into the hills. Here they finally started to build a fire. This caused the girls to become alarmed and while the men were collecting fuel-they made their escape. The girls gave their names as Clara Young, of 1108 South Jersey street. St. Johns, aged 11, and Viola Gray, or 1200 South Ivanhoe Btreet, St. Johns, aged 13, Viola Gray Is an adopted child. From the girls' story, as reported by A. C. Wright, proprietor of a cafe teria at Willbrldge. it would seem tnat Clara Young was going to have a birthday party and was on her way to the other girl s home when she found her guest-to-be seated In an automo bile, talking to three men. They told her they were going for a nice auto mobile drive and that she had better accompany them. To this the girl assented, so all took their seats'and drove off. They crossed the river by ferry and then, coming to the hills, the men suggested climb ing them. The girls accordingly got out of the automobile with the men and went up Into the bills. As time wore on, though, they began to get alarmed and to worry about getting back. Their fears were increased when one of the men suggested building a fire. As soon aa the men's attention was taken up by collecting material for a fire, the girls fled down the hill as fast as they could, eventually emerging Just by Willbrldge and taking refuge in the house of Mr. and Mrs. F. R. Walker. Mr. Walker is the telegraph operator at Willbrldge. Mrs. Walker Informed Mr. Wright of what had happened and he Imme diately telephoned the Marshal at Llnnton. Sheriff Word also was noti fied. The girls say that they can give a definite description of the men, but they failed to get the number of the car. It Is thought that beyond the fright which their experience has given them the girls were not harmed. BANKS NEED NO HELP CONCERTED ACTION NOT TAKEN ON FEDERAL TREASURY OFFER. First National Notifies Secretary Mc Adoo It Will Not Borrow Lum bermen's Makes No Move. Portland National banks have not taken any concerted action in regard to asking for a part of the 134.000,000 In Government funds which Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo has announced will be deposited in National banks throughout the country to facilitate the movement of crops and promote business generally. One bank, the First .National, has sent word that it does not desire any of the money. "We don't feel that it is necessary," said A. L. Mills, president of the First National, last night "so have informed the Secretary that we do not want to have any of the money deposited with us. We did not need any of the fund deposited last year, but took it because we thought It would help conditions generally. We returned our share in 60 days. Our consolidation with the Security Savings & Trust Company has left us In such condition that we would have no use for the money this year. We have notified Mr. McAdoo accord ingly." E. Q. Crawford, vice-president of the Lumbermen's National Bank, said the question of asking for a part of the Government deposit had not even been discussed there. "We have not asked for any of the money nor have we said we did not want it," said Mr. Crawford. "The subject has simply not come up for discussion. There has been no action on the mater by Portland banks as a whole, and any statement that none of the money was wanted - here has been made by banks speaking for themselves, not for all the banks."

RATES ONE-SIDED B. E. Kennedy, Back From Canada, Talks of Tariff. RECIPROCITY IS NOT SEEN Traveler Says United States Is Lib eral and Dominion Grasping. Oil Craze Creates Fortunes and Shatters Minds. "To learn something of the way that Canada is reciprocating with the United States in tariff matters, one should take a trip into Canada," said B. E. Kennedy, prominent local Pro gressive, yesterday, having Just re turned from a two-months' visit in Calirarv. "We have in some cases reduced and in others eliminated the tariff on Ca nadian goods and products," said Mr Kennedy, "but If we ship an automo bile Into Canada we pay a 35 per cent duty. The duty Is about 20 per cent on a typewriter. There Is 58 per cent on tobacco. Show companies going from, the United States Into Canada pay 15 cents a pound on their printed paper. "The manufactured products of the United States are much superior to Canadian manufactures, and the result is that a great deal of American ma chinery is shipped from here into Can ada' at a high Import tariff. Machinery Dnty $30,000. "A short time ago the machinery for a flouring mill was shipped from the United States to Medicine Hat. The duty was something over $30,000." Mr. Kennedy went to Calgary on ac count of the oil excitement There had been prospecting for a year near land owned by him, and, one company having struck oil, he deemed it wise to go to Calgary and safeguard his interests. Oil has not been found on Mr. Ken nedy's land, but Is flowing from wells a few miles distant "When the strike was made every body went crazy, some of them actual ly," said Mr. Kennedy. "One old homesteader sold his land out for a big price, and is now in an insane asylum from the excitement of sud den riches. Another man, who was badly In debt, but who had some oil leases, sold out for $90,000. He went to Banff, rented a whole floor of the hotel, and proceeded to follow the homesteader's example. A stenographer in the Canadian Pacific offices sold her leases for $60,000, half cash, half stock. There have been a number of such rapid rises to wealth, but the one who has profited the most from the boom is W. S. Herron, who Is now rated at $8,000,000." Natural Gas Everywhere. Mr. Kennedy says the country is full of natural gas, there being a num ber of places where it may be Ignited by holding a match to a crevice in the earth. It is used for lighting in nearly all the cities, and is such a cheap commodity In Medicine Hat that the lights are allowed to burn day and night which is considered more economical than to hire a man to turn them out. Almost the entire province of Al berta has been filed on for oil, Mr. Kennedy says. The filings run from 200 mile3 north of Calgary to the American line, and from the Rocky Mountains 180 miles eastward. 'A very large percentage of these claims never will amount to anything," said Mr. Kennedy, "and the same is true of many of the companies that have been formed. However, within the next year It will be determined as to the quantity of oil available, as there are now at least 20 wells being drilled, and contracts have been let for a dozen more." 'PAINLES PARKER" SUED Woman Charges Dentist With Negli gent and Unskillful Work. Charging E. R. Parker, an advertis ing dentist, better known as 'Painless Parker." with inflicting' serious injuries upon her in exiracing a loom, Aims Francis yesterday sued him for $10,000 damages. It is alleged by the plaintiff that the dentist represented to her he would ex tract a number of teeth in a skillful. Droner and painless manner, but she charges that his technique was both negligent and unskillful. Too much cocaine, she says, was injected into her jaw, resulting in impaired circulation and diseased tissues, and, besides, she alleges, the operation broke her jaw bone. The damages Inflicted are said to have been serious and permanent. "Painless" Parker made the following statement: "It is evident to me that the dental trust is employing the same methods that have been used In a great many of the cities where I have offices. After the teeth have been extracted, some of the trust take the pains to put carbolic acid and arsenic in the sockets, the result being that necrosis sets in, the bone decays, flesh Is eaten away and leaves the patient In serious condition. "Anyone who has ever had a wisdom tooth extracted knows that there is every chance in the world for stiffening of the muscles of mastication, and, be ing in such an Inaccessible position, unless thoroughly treated afterwards by competent hands, secretions of the mouth, food and sometimes particles of broken pieces from the other teeth get down In the sockets, causing trouble, and sometimes It Is months at a time before the patient Is able to open the mouth and masticate food. "These things, as a rule, are blamed on the dentist Of course, If the dentist has no money, or it appears that he has none, there Is no suit started. But here In Portland at present I am having this fight on with the ethical dental trust. and It is a good opportunity for these 'trustites to have the public start mal practice suits against me to weaken my case and prevent me from getting a license. "In New York City and Brooklyn mal practice suits totaling 175,000 were brought on by the ethical dental trust, of which this is a branch, in 13 months. I have never had one of these cases come to trial yet." ATTACK ON LAW FAILS JUDGE WOLVERTON' DISMISSES SUIT TO TEST BLUE SKY ACT. Right of State Official Ruled on, but Constitutionality of Act Is Not Panned Upon. By an opinion rendered in United States District Court yesterday. Judge Wolverton dismissed the suit of the National Mercantile Company against Corporation Commissioner Watson. The suit sought to restrain Commissioner Watson from enforcing the Oregon "blue sky" law, as against the opera tions of this concern. District Judge Bean and Circuit Judge Gilbert heard the case with Judge Wolverton, but Judge Wolverton wrote the opinion. The opinion has no weight as af fecting the constitutionality of the law, which the National Mercantile Com pany, a Vancouver, B. C, corporation, seeks to have declared unconstitutional. The Judges simply decided that the company came within the scope of the law, as in their opinion it transacted business in Oregon, and that the com pany, not having complied with the law and having no standing as an Ore gon corporation, could not bring suit to nullify the law. Judge Wolverton found that while it had not been proved, as the attorneys for Commissioner Watson had con tended, that the business was a lottery, there was doubt as to its legitimacy. Judge Wolverton sustained the con tention, made last March by Commis sioner Watson, when he said that the company's credentials, which would have to be considered In granting It a license to do business In Oregon, were "fatally defective."
