When the breakfast waa put on the

The tree stood In the midst of
heavily timbered district and visions of
wealth danced before the eyes of the
Wisconsin men. They returned at once
to Roseburg. where each of them filed
on a tltmber claim, basing his descrip
tion on ths false markings on ths tree
which they had seen. Each ot them
paid over to Hartshelm a locating fee
of flit, snd In addition paid to Frank
N. Alley of Roseburg flO to cover cost
of publication and fl for his services

Hartshelm received in locating fees s
total of f 1.600. though he assured the
10 entrymen that no part of the money
wss for himself, but all for McCrossea
snd Gardner. As the easterners had al

Crovernment Vaoovers Swindle.
On the pretext, that the Roseburg
land" office was not open for business.
McCrossen lnduoed tho entrymen not to
file their papers In person but to leave
that to Alley. When at last the party
had started on tho return trip to Port
land, suspicion seems to have arisen
for the first time that they might have
been the victims of a fraud. J J. Mo
Manamy telegraphed to H. F. Higby,
the special agent In charge of the Rose
burg land office, to ask whether the
filings had been accepted. Hlgby wired
back advising a consultation with In
spector Thomaa Neuhausen, who ia at

As soon ss Mr. Neuhausen had heard
the story of the Oshkosh party ho dls
patched a special agent to West Fork
to make Investigations. As he had ex
pected, he received the Information that
the easterners had been defrauded by
a false description, and the clrcura

had been biased and marked only a few
Where ths Statutes Fail.
Ths federal statutes prohibit any
alteration or defacing of marks erected
by government surveyors, but contain
no provision prohibiting the counter'
felting of such marks. -
It seemed impossible to reach the of
fenders under tho federal laws, but the
rase seemed to fall, within the stats
law asjto obtaining monsy by false pre
tenses.' The victims . of the swindle
therefore decided to take the matter to
District Attorney John Manning, and the
facta were laid before him.

In the meantime Hartshelm had sur
rendered $500, his share of tho $1,509
pa(d ss locating feea. He protested his
own Innocence. It was insisted by the
Oshkosh men that If he were In truth
Innocent It waa Incumbent on him to
swear to a complaint against McCros
sen. To this Hartshelm assented, but
no warrant has yet been sworn out.
, All of ths easterners have returned
ta their homes. Before going they re
talned an attorney to collect If possible,
