CONGRESSMAN WILLIAMSON
DEMURS TO CHARGES
His Partner and Associate File Abatement Pleas.
To Expose Unusual Proceedings
of Grand Jury.
Portland, April 15. There was achaugeof program
in the defense of those indicted for alleged complicity in
the Oregon land frauds, when Congressman J. N. William
son, his partner, Dr. Van Gesner, aud Marion R. Biggs ap
peared beYore Judge Bellinger to plead this morning. Con
gressman Williamson departed from the plan adopted by
Senator J. H. Mitchell, and entered demurrers on the
ground that the allegations do not constitute crime, and
other grounds. Van Gesner aud Biggs followed the Mitch
ell plan in the main, but improved upon it by meetiug
District Attorney Heuey's claim that it is too late, by the
statement that they filed pleas in abatement at the earliest
possible moment. Hearing will be had Monday (today.)
Now comes 1 he above-named defend
ant, J. N . Williamson, in bis own prop
er person, and H. S. Wilson and A. S.
Bennett, his attorneys, and demurs to
die indictment in the above entitled
cause, and says :
"That the said indictment, and the
natters and facte therein contained, in
manner and form as tbe same are stated,
are not sufficient to constitute a crime,
and are not direct and certain. And
that the said indictmert does not eet
forth with sufficient or any certainty the
character or nature or circumstances of
Hie allege! intended fraud upon the
Uoi ed States, or identify or describe
tbe land as to which said fraud is
claimed to have been directed, and of
which tbe United States, as :lsimed and
alleged, was intended to be defrauded,
or of tbe lands which were intended to
be transferred t the Unite 1 States by
said defendant.
."And the said defendant says he is
not bound by the law of the laud to an
swer the same, and that be is ready to
verify.
''Wherefore, for want of a sufficient
indictment in this behalf, the said J. N.
Williamson prays judgment, and that
the same will be quashed and adjudged
insufficient, and that he may be dis-

that district. McBain came to the

"I object to the filing and considera

District Attorney Heney, "upon the
grounds first, that they came too late;
.second, that they contain matters which
contradict the record or which are, if
i true, only provable by testimony of the

who must be lierniitted to disclose w hat

CLAIMS X-RAY DID
$10,000 DAMAGES
Portland, Oregon, April 14 As an
example of the havoc which
X-rays will work on a ci ild's face,
lawyers for the plaintiff in the case of
Hellen Bail, a minor, vs. Drs. Alva D.
Walker ami Kalph C. Walker, exhibited
the burned, scarred and disfigured face
of Hellen Ball to B jury in Judge Frazers'
court todav B tn sides of the child's
face are disfigured as if boiling water
had been poured on them, while her
head is almost bald, with the exception
of the top scalp, where there is a luxur
ant growth. One eve is twisted ont of
shape. This disfiguration, the plaintiff
claim, was caused by the unskillful ap
plication of X rays to the child's face by
the defendants in an effort to cure her
of eczema. The little girl is about 7
years old, and the suit is brought by
her mother Mrs. C. A. Ball. They ask
for 1 10, COO damages.

COWBOY RAID
Heads Band of Horsemen Who
Dash Through Frederick, Okla.
Swinging Hats and Yelling
Texline, Tex., April 14. Yesterday
evening at Frederick, the President
made a fitting final event of the day of
fun. At the head of some "i0 horsemen,
he dashed through the streets of the lit
tle towu, all sw inging hats 'and veiling
like madmen. After thanking the peo
ple for their consideration in letting him
alone to enjoy himself, the president re
tired to his car, where he detailed his
exploits with the wolves to the newspa
per men. 1 1 was annouced this morn
ing that the Colorado headquarters of
Secretary Loefc and others of the party
who do not hunt will be at tilenwood
Springs.
The President arrives at Colorado
Springs at 7:30 p. m. and leaves at 9:30
o'clock for the west. He will be escort
ed to the residence of H. B. Stewart for
the purpose of selecting his hunting out
fit. President Roosevelt will become own
er of the monster Colorado Midland
mogul engine No. 15, which has been
selected to haul Lis train to Newcastle.
The locomotive weighs 210,000 pounds
and is valued at $20,000. The presenta
tion will be made by John Hopkinson
on behalf of the Colorado Midland and
the train crew, so that when he returns
from Newcastle he will be hauled by his
ow n engine.
There has U-en a fresh snowfall and
the roads to camp Roosevelt are impass
able. Everything is report d iu good
order and there will be no dearth of
game. Four bears have already been lo
Cited and are beiDg watched and trap
pers are following the tracks of half a;
dozen others.
The hunting party in Oklahoma ae-
cured a total of IS coyotes. The hides
will be sent to the White House.
The president's special passed Texline
at 8 :20 o'clock this morning. He was
met at Empire Gap by Governor Mc
Donald and party, who will accompany
the special to Colorado Springs. A re

the train at Pueblo at 5:45 o'clock.
Bsauvdt Bttjas With a tear.
Newcastle. Colo., April 15. President
Roosevelt has killed his first bear, a '100
pound brown animal. He was brought
down with one shot with a ride of the
armv type, four hours alter the hunt
beran. The skin tonight is stretched in
front of tbe president's cabin ami Jack
Frye will have the choicest lar steaks
ready for breakfast in the morning
The bear's trail was struck 12 miles
from Newcastle, about half way to the
camp. The leading dog gave the alarm
and the whole pack of hounds was un
leashed. Eight dogs came up with the
game after a chase of altout two miles.
The hear took to a tree without fight.
President Roosevelt and John 1!. i"ff
were rijht behind the dogs. The presi
dent took steady aim and brought the
animal tumbling down with a shot
through the shoulder and lungs. The
rest of the party came up, the bear was
skinned, the beet parts of tbe meat cut
out and the march again taken up for
the camp. Penn's ranch was reached
at 5 o'clock.
There.is great rejoicing there over the
success of the first day's hunt and from
tbe fa-i that the weather is clear and
tbe conditions perfect for the sport.
Jack Borah said tonight he knew where
there are six more bears and also dozens
of mountain lions and bob cats.
The president is in the best of spirits
over the outcome today and the outlook
generally.
The presidential party arrived in New
castle this morning at 7 :45 o'clock. The
president had not finished dressing
when the train stopped and hurried out
on the platform in his stocking feet to
respond to the cheering. A little girl
clambered upon the steps and said :
"Mr. President, here is something for
Miss Alice."
It was the silver-mounted bridle pre
sented by the women's Relief Corps of
Newcastle.
The cowboy parade and the plan to
lead a cage1 bear out several miles and
then let. him loose for the president to
kill was vetoed by Roosevelt, who em
phatically told the committee he did not
like that kind of sport.
OLD CHAMPOEG HERO
BECOMES AN ELK
Salem, Or., April 14. F. X. Matthieu
tbe only surviving "hero of Old Cham
poeg," last night donned the antlers and
became a full-fledged member of Salem
Lodge No. 33, B. P. O. Elks. Although
well along toward his 88th year, Mr.
Matthieu is apparently almost as active
as he was 40 years ago. Members of the
local lodge turned ont in full force for
the unusual occasion.
Mr. Matthieu is credited with the dis
tinction of being the only survivor of
the organization of the territorial gov
ernment of Oregon, which took place
upon a spot near Old Champoeg, now
marked by a monument, when, in 1852,
100 settlers lined up to decide whether
this country should be included in the
I United States domain or that of Eng
land, resulting in favor of the former by
the small margin of two votes, one of
which was cast by Mr. Matthieu. He
was born at Montreal, Canada, April 2,
1 1818. He came to tbe United States in
1839, to Oregon in 1842. In 1S51 he
founded the little town of Butteville and
built tbe first store, where he baa lived
ever since. Mr. Matthieu is also a mem
ber of the Masons.
SENSATIONAL NEWS FROM
RUSSIAN FLYING SQUADRON
Said to Have Fired on British Cruisers-Renewed
Rumors of an Engagement Com
munication Cut Off.
St. Petersburg, April 16 It is rumored the Baltic
squadron met and engaged two British cruisers in the
China Sea under the impression they were Japanese, and
sank them.
Paris, April 16 The correspondent of the Petit
Journal at Haifong, French Indo-Chiua, cabling under
date of April 15, says: "lam informed that the Russian
fleet, 40 vessels strong, running at 12 knots and without
lights, was sighted in the 17th degree of latitude, steaming
in a northernly direction.''
Hongkong, April 15 A cable dispatch
ha- been received here from Manila
saying that fighting has begun between
the Russian and Japanese Meets near
the Palawan ieUnds. part of the Philip
pine group.
The diipatcb does not go into details,
and w hile it is believed by naval men
here that there is a possibility of truth
in it, it is not supposed that the heavy
battleships of either Meet have been
engaged. The fighting, il any has oc
curred, will probably prove to have been
between scouting cruisers of the two
fleets.
Japanese scouts have been sighted in
that locality within the last few days,
and the fact lends some color to the
report, as it is generially U lieve 1 that
the Russian deet has anchored lempor
arily in some harlur in that vicinity in
order to coal up and make other prep
arations before proceeding farther north
Another report is that the fleets met
off Nipt r Shoals. Japanese cruisers are
known to be near that point. The Tokio

BOYS PLAN BANK
AND TRAIN ROBBERY
Uranta Pass, April 14. Plans to rob a
local bank and hold up a Southern Pa
cific train, in addition to perpetration of
seven bold robberies, were disclosed at
the preliminary hearing of Fay, Durham
and Belcher, tbe three youthful (irants
Pass boys, who left here last night in
custody for the Reform School.
Young Belcher is a law student in the
office of H. I. Norton, a local attorney.
There, where he had apparently been
studiously reading law, was found pow
der enough to blow up the block. Il
was the discovery of miscellaneous booty,
looted from stores, residences and even
a church, that led to the arrest of the
trio, and the expose of the organized
"gang" that has stirred the town. In
the attic of the opera-house was found
one cache of stolen goods, hile more
was discovered iu the law office, together
with tools for carrying on their crooked
avocations.
Last Sunday the Durham boy joined
the Bethany Presbyterian Church. That
night the White House grocery store
was robbed by the trio. The Belcher
boy was committing the catechism for
admittance into the Kpiscopal Church.
All the boys, in addition to their promi
nent connections, were quiet, well be
haved, and by no means of the "rowdy"
sort.
Nearly all the articles taken in seven
robberies have been produced. The
boys broke completely down when first
questioned, and tearfilly begged that all
ki. ow ledge of their crimes be kept from
their parents.

St. Petersburg, April 15 With the
departure f the hospital ship Orel from
Saigoo. the last cord connecting the
Baltic squadron with St. Petersburg was
severed and the admiralty exjiects no
further direct news until a battle has
been fought and determined. "Hence
forth,'' said a prominent naval officer,
"the BWBM probably will l our only
source of information. Kojestvcnsky's
next message will not be written until
he has met the enemy."
I'nder the circumstances, many ru

the Japanese at various places and w ith
varving results, but the most fanciful is
that saying the Baltic stpiadron met and

impression that they were Japanese and

MOUNT SHASTA IN
ACTIVE ERUPTION
Sit-son, Calif., April 1-1. Is Mount
Shasta active again?
Torn open by some powerful internal
disturbance is the condition of a vacant
lot adjoining A. Koletska's livery stable
here. Great jagged cracks have opened,
from which constant streams of dark
colored, oily mud are flowing in great
quantities. About the same time the
upper side of a big fill across Big canyon
sank 40 feetT
This phenomenon occurred at 10:30
o'clock Thursday morning The fill
across Rig canyon was built nbout six
years ago by the McCloud Railway com
pany, and was considered one of the saf
est fills on the entire road. The sinking
of the till and the upheave! at Sisson at
the same time gives ground to much
speculation as to the probable cause.
Many of the older citizens are inclined
to favor the theory that Mount Shasta
is on the verge of an upheavel. When
the mud first began Mowing from the
lo'. above the livery stable Mrs. Koletska
was at the barn alone. She saw that
the mud would flood the town if left to
its own course, so gave the alarm and
soon had men at work digging trenches
from the barn to the main sewer ditch.
The trenches, however, cannot carrv tbe
volume of flowing mud and the streets
below aie gradually filling.
Some of the mud was thrown into
clear water and an oily substance soon
covered the top of the water, which in
dicates the presence of much oil. L is
reported here that the mesa above town
is gradually sinking in several places.
