(Special Dispatch to The JoaraaL)
Tacoma, Deo. It. As -an echo of the
Benson-Hyde land frauds, the govern
ment haa taken ateps to1 recover land
worth $600,000 lying In Pierce, Lewis,
Pacific; Chehalis and Thurston counties.
The lands In question are held under
patents secured bv Benson and Hyde
and the, present owners, or at least a
majority, are said to have been in
nocent purchasers. - Yesterday deputies
from the United States marshal's office
started to scout the lends in question.
Thev are armed with the necessary
papers for service of process ana it win
"r Torn
before their task is completed.
The officers will rind much difficulty
In serving the documents. It Is feared.
Many acreetff the lands have pasaed
Into the hands of .. large companies,
whose members 'are nonresidents. The
deputies must learn If there are any
persons on. the. lands In Question on
whom service can be made. The offi
cers must cover some . of the wildest
sections of the southwest part of the
state. . Some of the tracts are up In
the mountains, far from civilisation,
where the deputies will have to battle
with anow and storms. Therefore, they
do not view their task with pleasure.
There Is a rumor that District Attor
ney Frye Is preparing for criminal pros
ecution but he .will make no definite
statement. It is known that secret
service men .have, been working In this
state for . months attempting to ferret
out land frauds. . It is believed that
land cases will receive no little atten
tion at the hands of the federal grand
Jury which convenes at Tacoma In Feb
ruary. FASTEST RUNNING TIME
