Portland. Jan. 23- Sensational and damaging testimony against John H Hall was giren yesterday by Hamilton H. Hendricks, who testified that in May, lvKX), be had suggested to Hall that Hall nee his knowledge of illegal leucine by Steiwer and his asiocialea as a political clab over W. "W. Stetwer. At ibe morning session Hendricks, who was a co-defendant with Hall and Mays, entered a pies of guilty to the cont-piracj indictment. Late in the afternoon Hendricks was called to the stand, and his testimony, following that of a number of minor witnesses who preceded him, had the effect of a thunder fctorzn on a clear Eanimer aftei noon. "While Hendricks recited the and Mays. ttance of Hall in Portland in 1900, when the district attorney told Steiwer that it would probably be necessary for him (Hall) to prosecute the Butte Creek company for maintaining unlawful fence. Heney Ef ted the -witness to give his "understanding" of that con versation, but counsel far the defend ant objected to tha- form of examina tion and Judgj Hunt referred his rul ing until 10 o clock this morning, to which hour court adjourned. Steiwer e confession and his appear ance as a witness lor toe prosecution j is anothei move by Heney by which the government expects convincingly to , fatten the conspiracy charge against ' both Hall and Mays. The alleged con j spiracy has been proved against Stei- wer, xienariCKs ana denary, usurers vi the Butte Creek company, but the tes timony of tbeee three witnesses is re lied an bv the government further to GATHfcH HOP DATA.

White no par ticular effort will be made to learn the acreage ot nop? tnat will be plowed up this season, it is probable that a pretty Has fair idea of the extent of tbe Dlowinc Hall and May in that con- up will be gamed. While the testimony of Hen- gained the interested and semi bopeful expression that has charade- iied him from the beginning of the trial, and court adjourned for the day after the sensational statements of Hendricks. Clarence B. Zachary, who yesterday entered a plea of guilty to the conspir acy charge, was foreman of the Butte Creek company. He was a piomineat figure in superintending the different schemes that were hatched by his asso ciates. Mr. Heney expects to complete the government's case probably tomorrow afternoon and not later than Saturday. Hendriccs will be on the stand during the morning session, possibly a part of tbe afternoon today, and Trill be fol lowed by Clarence B. Zachary. Mr. Heney last night would not discuss the probability that W. W. Sieirer would be called as a witness for the govern ment, neither would he admit that Steiwer would follow tbe lead of his as sociates, Hendricks and Zachary, of the Batte Creek company, and plead guilty. to Steiwer.
