MAY AFFECT LAND TITLES Method of Securing Timber Vnder Investigation Jury Still Sitting. No Intimation as Yet aa to Its Final Report. BOISE. Idaho. April 6. (Special. I-To-Ja Judge Beatty decided that Manager rhapnian. of the Barber dumber Com pany, would have to take such books of the company berore the grand Jury as re late to transactions ' in connection with securing title to timber lands. Chapman declined to do po unless ordered by the court. The matter was argued this morn ing by District Attorney Rulck and Judge 1-lttleton Price, the latter representing the company, and In the afternoon Judge Beatty ruled as staled. It has been made plain by numerous moves made by the District Attorney that it is the intention to attempt to break the title of the company to a large portion of the lands it holds, and this move today was part of that programme. The company holds lands on which some fO0.0fl0.000 feet or timber Is standing, most of It purchased from locators. The grand jury has also secured from the First Na tional Bank an abstract of the accounts from which the timber lands were paid for. It is. thought the grand jury will be in session another week, but there Is no In timation of what Its final report will be. It Is supposed to be the intention to In dict the company, but that is entirely speculation. No further indictments have been returned, and it seems probable no other report will be made until the Jury closes Its labors.
