VICTIMS OF LAND-SHARKS
Homesteaders Allege That Portland
Parties Have Located People on
Claims, Possession of Which
Is Still Undetermined.
NEWPORT. Or.. Aug. 8. (Special.) An
Indignant party of homesteaders start to
day for the Slletx Reservation to protect
.their homesteads from a raid wnicn nae
Just developed and threatens, if success
ful, to transfer to a firm of Portland at
toraeys the richest portion of the rich
forest that makes Lincoln County the
Mecca, of the sDeculator. . This party,
which consists of the most influential
citizens of Newport, expects to brine
back a crowd of squatters who. in turn.
are expected to call on the Portland at
torneys for the return of large fees paid
out for locating them on lands already
proved UD.
The story of this transaction goes back
several years. In brief. It Is this: Over
a hundred settlers offered proof before
the Commissioner of the Land Office four
years ago and brought their witnesses
and paid their fees to get patents on the
land they had filed on and improved.
Through the report of an Inspector of
the Land Office, their final receipts were
help up for "nonresidence" and each one
so notified.
Filings Held I" p for Years.
From that day till this these settlers
have been vainly endeavoring to get a
hearing. Most of them were compelled
M leave their homesteads and seek a
livelihood elsewhere in order to meet at
torney's fees and the expense Incidental
to the prolonged and expensive trials at
Portland. But no trials were set and
today these men have been without even
a hearing in the matter.
Almost from the first they were ap
proached by persons offering them small
sums . for their relinquishments snd as
serting that they "had no rhance to win."
They held on doggedly. Within the last
six months they have been the recipients
of constant hints that it was "time to sell
- before they were ousted by the Land
Office." Still they hung on.
Last week came a party of men from
Portland who quietly bought provisions
at the local stores and then hired pack
ers to take them out on the claims. So
fsr five men have squatted on these
claim and each train seems to bring
more. These squatters claim possession
snd say that the Portland I-and Office
has decided that these claims are open
to entry again. The price the squatters
have paid seems to have been in each -
case 1600, payable upon acceptance of the
tiling.
Settlers Take Determined Stand.
The settlers whose claims have been
thus forcibly taken away rrom thera
are up in arms. They say they realize
that any slackness on their part means
the Inrush of hundieds into all parts of
the Siletz Reservation of men induced
into paying money on assurances that
these claims are open for entry, though
no hearings have ever been had before
any court.
After consultation with their attorneys,
the settlers state that they, will fight to
the last ditch.
Today they "start out In force to get
hold of the alleged trespassers and hale
them In on warrants charging them with
. violating the laws forbidding the cutting
of timber and the taking possession of
private property.
One of the squatters is located on
the homestesd of Frsnk Priest, whose
trial has already been held, bis being
the only one of a hundred, to come off.
His attorney st the time gained the
case by default of the Government
witnesses and prosecutor, but It was
reopened on orders from Portland
Conspiracy by Land-Sharks.
The whole matter will result in a,
bitter contest. One of the settlers con
cerned, whose present interests run
Into many thousands, said today, "I
know Just what this means. It is an
organized conspiracy on the part of
land sharks to seize our lands and get
what money they can from Innocent
men who take their word for It that
our land Is open for settlement again.
I have tried vainly for four years and
a half to get a hearing on the protest
of the Government. If It takes 120,000
1 am here to tell you that they won't
get it. I'll fight this to the last gasp,
I'll have these squatters arrested every
day in the year. If needful, and 111
prove that we are entitled to our home-
steads and Intend to have them. I
have already taken the matter to
Washington."
Congressman Ellis, who Is here, has
been besieged by these indignant men,
who assert that It is time someone took
the mstter to Washington and insisted
on a hearing.
, There Is no doubt that unless Imme
diate measures are taken by the United
States to decide the matter peaceably
there will be serious trouble. The
squatters claim that they have already
been to great expense and have abso
lute assurance that their claims will be
recognized.
The land In question amounts In
value to about J7.n00.000. the present
valuation being based on the price of
stumpage.

Through the arrest and confession of 14-year-old
HJalmar Waldahl. boy burglar
and sneak thief. Helen McFarland. 17
years old. and Annie Bush, also 17, were
arrested by Patrolman Llmbocker. Ray
Martin aged 11 was also taken into
custody.
According to the confession of the
Waldahl boy and the partial confession
of the two girls, the boys have been
schooled in crime and have been working
for the girls on commission. The stories
told of the two girls and what they had
taught the boys were almost too much
even for the ears of the hardened police.
Through the confession of the Waldahl
boy, the mystery of many robberies in
downtown office buildings has been
cleared. The boy admitted stealing from
nearly every large office building in the
city, and told Attorney Lea of robbing
his office recently.
According to their own statements, they
have committed about every crime on

THIEF TRAPPED IN CELLAR
Burglar ' Dives Through Bajement
Window to Escape Capture.
Awakened Thursday night by a burglar
who had forced an entrance to the cellar,
the family of Mrs. M. Barton, who live
at 846 Belmont street, had a thrilling ex-
perience but succeeded In driving away
the Intruder without sustaining any loss
or receiving any injuries. The thug
forced the cellar door and the noise he
made in effecting his entrance awakened
the household. Several of the family
headed by Mrs. Barton's son bravely
threw open the Inside door leading to the
cellar and. armed with a variety of weap
ons, descended into the darkness with
the Intention of capturing the burglar If
possible.
Their sudden descent had cut off the
burglar from the door and his only ave
nue of escape lay through a small win
dow. Without hesitation the burglar
made a dive through this window and
landed safely on the outside carrying
sash, glass and all. It Is believed that
he escaped being cut by the broken glass
as no blood marks were found. The mat
ter was reported to .the police.
COAL ENTRIES CONTESTED
Government Suspects Attempts to
Secure Coos Bay Timber.
ROSEBURG. Or., Aug. 8. Through

burg contests have been instituted by
the Federal Government against 15
coal entries In what Is known as the
Eden Ridge Coal Field, In township
32-i, north of the Coquille River, In
Coos County. It Is the belief of the
Government that the claims are wanted
principally for the magnificent timber
that stands on them and not for what
coal they might contain.
Of the IS persons who filed the coal
entries, the following eight reside In
Coos County; Claes and Augusta An
derson, of Coquille; Cecil and Alta Car
ter and S. D. Pulford, of Myrtle rolnt:
James H. Flanagan and Herbert and
Louise C. Lockhart. of Marshfield. The
remaining seven entrymen come from

THIRTEEN, the gambler's unlucky
number, went hand in hand with a
police raid last night at 82 Second street,
in which eight Chinese and five Japan
ese players were taken prisoners by De
tectives Smith and Howell. They were
caught at the table with the 'excitement
of a fantan same in full sway. The of
ficers surrounded them and took the
money and gambling devices for evidence.
The players attributed their arrest en
tirely to the number seated at the table.
They gave the names of Ah Hang, Wong
Sin, Ah Peoy, Ah Bow, Ah George, Ab
One, Lim Bong,, and Ah Jim, Chinese;
and Toney Kin, Llg Matin, Ah Bey,
Argo Hoy and Joe Touch, Japanese.
There had been 12 players In the game
up. until a few momenta before the of
ficers dropped In on them. Joe Touch
was the last one to arrive. He made the
thirteenth and after the raid the others
threatened to mob Touch for the bad
luck he seemed to have caused them.
This resort has been repeatedly raided
by the police. Under Judge Van Zante'a
new system of an Increased ratio of pun
ishment for each fresh offense for old of

vogue for months past, will receive an

POLICE LOOK FOR SUSPECT
Made Secretary of Committee That
Will Assist Campaign Treasurer
on Ways and Means At
mosphere Is Cleared.
NEW TORK, Aug. 8 Elmer E. Dover,
of Ohio, has resigned his position as sec
retary of the, Republican National com
mittee and will become the secretary of
an advisory committee, which ia to work
with George R. Sheldon, treasurer of the
National committee. William Hayward,
of Nebraska City, Neb., who has been
Republican chairman In his state for a
number of years, has been appointed
secretary of the National committee and
will be in charge of Western headquarters
at Chicago In the absence of Mr. Hitch
cock. This reorganization and several
Important announcements were made to
night. Will Have Nine Members.
The advisory committee, which is to
have charge of ways and means for the
campaign, will consist of nine members.
The two men who are to be named will
be prominent business men and financiers
from different sections of the country and
will not be from the ranks of the National
committee.
The selection of Mr. Dover for the sec
retaryship of the committee pleases him
and his acceptance of the place disposes
of the report that his relations with
r. Hitchcock are not harmonious.
Hitchcock Talks Frankly.
In discussing the change tonight, Mr.
HItchcook spoke very frankly of the ne
cessity of thorough organization for the
proper financing of the campaign. He
admitted that a great deal of money
will be needed and he wants the party
managers, charged with the gathering
of funds, to go about their plans in a
strictly businesslike manner. He added
that be would see that the expenditures
were made with Just as great care.
Some of the men who will serve on the
advisory committee have acoepted ap
pointment already, but the announce
ment of the full committee will not be
ready before next week, says Mr. Hitch
cock, chairman of the National commit
tee.
Mr. Hitchcock will be chairman of the
advisory committee. Mr. Dover will be
an ex-offlcio member of the committee
the headquarters of which will be In this
city.
Xante Xo Vice-chairman.
It ia not likely that any vice-chairman
of the National committee will be ap
pointed. Mr. Hayward will give up the
chairmanship of the Nebraska state com
mittee and devote his entire time to the
management of the campaign in the West
and Mr. Hitchcock will also spend a great
deal of time in Chicago.
The announcement was made- today
by Mr. Hitchcock that he will hold
conferences throughout the country
with the managers in the various sec
tions from time to time during the
campaign. He said he Intended to keep
In close touch with work In all sections
and to confer with the party man
agers whenever and wherever he thinks
the Republican cause can be aided by
his presence.
Hitchcock Will Travel.
This may keep him away from the
actual headquarters In New Tork and
Chicago a great deal of the time. This
plan has never been followed by cam
paign managers In the past, but Mr.
Hitchcock submitted it to the party
eaders generally and they approved
of it.
Mr. Hayward is the youngest state
chairman In the United States, being
only 31 years of age. He originated
what is known as the Nebraska sys
tem of polling and keeping in touch
with voters of his state, which is said
to be an Improvement on the Tammany
and Indiana systems. He Is a lawyer.
were based upon the reports of commit
tees appointed to consider the various
subjects. The conferences lasted from
July 27 to August 5. Except in a few in
stances no Intimation is given as to
whether the 86 resolutions adopted by the
conference were on subjects of wide dif
ferences of opinion or not. Among the
resolutions passed was the following:
"In view of the tendencies widely shown
In the workings of the present day, the
conference places on record the convic
tion that the historical facts stated in the
creeds are an essential part of tha faith
of the church."
The serious decline in the number of
candidates for the ministry is deplored.
The conference resolved also that the
purely educational systems are educa
tionally as well as morally unsound. Of
interest to the United States is the fol
lowing: "All races and peoples, whatever their
language and condition, must be welded
into one body, and the organization of
different races living side by side into
separate or independent churches on the
basis of race or color is inconsistent with
the vital and essential principles of the
unity- pf Christ's church."
On the divorce question the resolutions
of 1SS8 were reaffirmed.
By a vote of 874 the conference resolved
that it Is undesirable that the Innocent
party to a divorce for adultery receive
the blessing of the church upon re-marrying.
It denounced also the growing
practice of the artificial restriction of
the family.
The movements for peace and for the
abatement of the opium traffic are com
mended and the circular says that steps
have been taken by the appointment of
committees for closer relation with the
orthodox churches of the East. The Arch
bishop of Canterbury dwelt upon the
striking missionary zeal. The archbishop
said the solution of racial problems is
the despair of the statesmen and that It
is for the church to face the perplexities
which daunt the civil rulers.

The Portland police are looking for Al
bert Nelson, of Hood River, who is sup
posed to have run away from his home

CALLS CROOKS' CONGRESS
King of Tramps Orders Meeting In
New York.
NEW TORK, Aug. 8. Police headquar
ters have heard that Dr. B. F. Reilman,
of Chicago, who calls himself "King of
Tramps." and has spent the last 20 years
doing rescue work among the inhabitants
of the under world, has Issued a call for
a "convention of criminals" to meet in
this city next month. To that part of Dr.
Reilman's programme which is directed
toward the obtaining of safe conduct and
Immunity from arrest of the delegates
while they are in the city. Inspector Mc-
Cafterty. in charge of the detective bu
reau, made strong objection last night.
"I'll order the arrest of every criminal
who arrives for the convention," said the
Inspector. "And I am not yet sure that I
won't arrest those persons who are get
ting up the affair. We want no assembly
of criminals In this city." .
"Dr. Reilman says it was suggested
that all of the criminals will agree to do
no criminal act while they are in the
city.:
"Dr. Reilman may believe what those
fellows tell him," said the inspector, "but
I won't. We can and will arrest all of
them as auspicious persons, and the
chances are that we will find that many
of them are fugitives from Justice, and
escaped prisoners, men under Indictment
or men wanted in connection with va
rious crimes. We will throw out the
drag-net and gather them in."
According to the prospectus of the con
vention, criminals In all parts of ths
country are to meet here to discuss their
relations to society, to the police and to
one another.
"Brotherhood" is to be watchword of
the convention. The titles of some of the
addresses to be delivered at the conven
tion, if the police forget to go around and
arrest everybody connected with the gath
ering are:
"Twenty-one years a criminal, 20 years
a prisoner"; "Dope and Booze"; "Do the
Police Give the Criminal a Fair Deal?"
"Easier to Commit Crime Than to Find
a Job"; "What Society Owes the Crim
inal." and "The Average Income of the
Criminal."
Inspector McCafferty laughed when he
came upon the last topic.
"They would all fatten their averages
If we let them collect In New Tork." he
said. "This is a hospitable city, but we
have to draw the line somewhere. In this
case we will draw it before the tempo
rary chairman of the convention begins
his opening remarks. It does seem a
shame, though, to stop it before the com
mute en resolutions gets Its report ready

CHICAGO, Aug. 8. For the first

down hard on the Chicago saloons to
day. Mayor Busse said "close," and the
liquor interests answered "We will.
Letters went out from every Chicago
brewery, practically commanding their
customers to abide by the strict spirit
of the law governing saloon on elec
tion and primary days. A note of
alarm was sounded in these letters
which In no uncertain language said
that, the saloonmen must abide by the
Mayor's edict or be forced out of busi
ness. On previous occasions most of the
saloons have closed only their front
doors and have done a profitable busi
