merely "illegal," and that Cunningham
had been "above board" in all of his
transactions. - "

as it appeared in the Dregonlan stated

In a letter written by Schwartz while
he was chief of -the field service - and
thoroughly conversant with the Cunningham-
claims, to. Commissioner of
the General Land Office Dennett, Sep
tember 23, 1908 (to be fouhd on pages
1 98-189, ' List of Orders, . Letters, Tele
grams, etc., in Glavls . Charge),
Schwartz says:
'"I, have V-orisldered " carefully the at
tached affidavit by Clarence Cunning
ham. -. '
"It is Ingenious, but not convincing,
although the' shbwln'g is ex parte and
made after several ' weeks very careful
consideration, by .Cunningham and his
attorneys, i
i"No law warranted . the ' location of
coal under the mining laws; from Cun
nlngham's memorandum book It appears
that of the original ' adventurers, the
Idaho crowd paid $600 each and the
Spokane crowd, $750 each. The orig
inal memorandum as to Heyburn Is for
'one claim of 160 acres in the coal.'
That was in August, 1903, and it
was not until October 20, .1905 (after.
as Cunningham now states', the second
series of locations and understandings
were naa). that Heyburn writes his
letter, quoted in the Cunningham affi
davit; . there never was- a' law warrant
ing the location of mining claims, either
in Individual claims of 160 acres or
in blocks of 640 acres located by four
persons; on page 9 of the attached cer
tified copy. ' of j Cunningham's book, . it
appears that Mace Campbell, in addition
to paying for his own claim. No, 90,
is carrying two dummies and putting
up $250 for each. The same state of

When asked -this morning if the.ap-.

While he has made no statement to
that effect, it is believed that Mr. Rush

bers of . the water, park and health
boards to continue in office under the
new sdminlstration. The health board
will meet tomorrow morning and it is
thought that Drs. Allan Welch Smith
and R. J. Chlpman will tender their
resignations, though these gentlemen,
It Is said, would be very agreeable to
the Incoming regime.
The city council will hold a meeting
next Wednesday. In accordance with
the provisions of the city charter. At
that meeting the council will elect a
president and the personnel of stand
