CA. Smith Co, Instructed to
; " Surrender Coos ; Lands' Un-
der "Innocent Purchaser,"
' Twenty thousand acres of land In Coos
' county was yesterday ordered forfeited
to tha United State from the C. A.
Smith Lumber company in a decree
ala-ned by Federal Judges Bobert : 8.
Bean. The forfeiture was made as a
settlement under the -"Innocent pur
chaser" statute, passed by congress to
protect the corporations and individu
als who had purchased large tracts of
. timbered ' lands from the Oregon ; and
California railroad company . of the gov
ernrtient grant. . i r--
- Hearing in this case was held in May.
Like all the other innocent purchaser
cases that have been settled, the de
fendant timber company had purchased
the land lu one large block afrom . the
railroad company and more was paid
for it than 1 2. SO an acre. Under the
terms of the' land grant, the Oregon and
California railway was authorised to
sell these lands to actual Settlers only
. In blocks of 160 acres at tl.60. , ,
The Innocent purchaser's : , statute,
passed just a year ago this month,
'authorises those who purchased tracts
of 1000 acres or more from the railroad
company to forfeit them to the govern
ment and in six months' time or less,
to buy the land back at the regular price
of $2.10 an acre. It . Is one of the
provisions of the statute that the lands
have to b bought baoK by the original
purchaser ' from the railroad company.
Otherwise the government will institute
,a suit asking for absolute forfeiture of
tne property witnout any compensation
'to the party losing it.
The C. A. Smith company will have
to pay 160,000 to regain this acreage.
The complaint 'was directed against the
Oregon & California railroad, Charles
A. Smith and the u, A. smith Lumber
company.
The stipulation of the defendants In
this case is signed by John Lind, who
has just gone to Mexico for the United
States as an ambassador extraordinary
. in an effort to secure peace , in the
southern republic. Mr. Land was at
torney for C A. Smith at the hearing
In Portland In May. Glenn E. Husted,
special assistant to the attorney gen

Dlggs In reaching court . Judge Van
Fleet fumed at the delay and said It
must not occur again.
While the court was waiting for
Dlggs. Miss Warrington, supported by
her sister, Mrs. 8. Haley of Sacramen
to, entered the court room. She was
heavily veiled, but seemed to be more
composed than yesterday, ana apparent
ly, was prepared to face her ordeal with
as near composure as was possible la
the circumstances.
Attorney Devlin, for the defense, at
thla point admitted that .he would at
tempt on cross examination to show
that Miss Warrington might he a will
ing witness against uiggs oecauae
"had been promised immunity possibly
from criminal prosecution herself." He
denied that he would attempt to lm
peaceh her testimony.
Marsha Warrington resumed Oe
stand at 10:39. Her testimony began
with the arrival of the elopers at Reno.
"We at once went to the parlor of
the Riverside hotel." she said, "and
ordered some lemonade."
Her voice was considerably stronger
than yesterday, and she needed less
coaching by Special Prosecutor Roche.
Dlggs Watches Witness.
Dlggs did not once remove his eyes
from Miss Warrington while she was
relating the details of the escapade that
culminated In his arrest He bit his
nails nervously.
"We girls wanted to go back to Sao
.ramento." said Miss Warrington "but
Dlggs and Camlnetti persuaded us not
to because it might lead to the dis
covery of their whereabouts.
"I was Introduced as Dlggs wife at
the real estate office," admitted Miss
Warrington In relating the arrange
ments made to rent the bungalow whore
the four elopers were later discovered.
"Dlggs and Camlnetti told us hot to
leave the bungalow," Miss Warrington
testified, "as we might be seen leaving."
"Dlggs said It was up to us whether
or not they went to the peniten
tiary," stated Miss Warrington In ex
plaining that her paramour had warned
her to keep the facts from the authori
ties. "He said 'don't tell the officers any
thing.' "When the officers knocked on the
door Mr. Beasley came in, and we girls
started to cry. Then he put his arms
about us to comfort us.
"I telephoned to my father at the re
quest of Mr. Dlggs to have the warrants
withdrawn. My father said he could
not as the matter was In the hands of
the state authorities."
Called Her "Pickles."
Asked if Dlggs had a pet name for
her. Miss Warrington stated that he
had often addressed her as "Pickles."
The "Pickles" letter Was then identi
fied by the witness.
Asked if she knew Miss Laura Bor
ton of Sacramento, the girl named In the
subornation and perjury charge against
Dlggs and his attorney, Charles Harris
of Sacramento, Miss Warrington ad

''No. Mr. Austin told me that Diggs

"Yes, occasionally, sne aamiiiea,

he was being shadowed. Frawley re

sive of this move.
Tammany members of the assembly
spoke practically all night, killing time
until they were able to muster enough
votes to put through the Impeachment
resolution. At 2:30 o'clock this morn
ing the real surprise of the proceedings
came. It was brought about by Minor
ity Leader Harold Hlnman of Albany,
fighting for the governor, who an
nounced that Mrs. Sulser had Issued a
statement which bore directly on the
issues before the assembly. Mrs. Bui
set's statement, HJnman declared, said
that the governor had known nothing of
the Wall street transactions laid at his
door by the Frawley committee, and
that She alone was responsible. Hinman
declared that Mrs. Sulzer had told her
confidantes that she had Invested $900
along with other sums In the stock mar

consent

Hlnman then moved that the assem

quickly voted down on a roll call by a
vote of 7 J to 49. Immediately there
after Majority Leader Levy took the
floor and spoke for three hours, osten
slbly defending Hlnman's revolution, but
In reality filibustering until the arrival
of a mifflclent number of Tammanyltes
to put through the Impeachment resolu

arrived noses were counted and the res
oluUon was put to a vote. It was adopt
ed exacUy at 6:16 o'clock.
The naming of committees and other
formalities required two hours, and at
7:26 o'clock this morning the assembly
took a recess until , 11 o'clock. The
speaker cf the assembly named Assem
blymen Van Woert Cole and Bradley as
a committee to notify the senate of the
adoption by the assembly of the im

Assemblymen Levy, Delta, Kelly, Daly

Friends of the governor deny that he
will be automatically removed from of

filed with-the state senate. The old
constitution so provided, they admit but
insist that the present constitution does
not cover this point .
The . Impeachment provisions In . the

only to the removal of "Judicial offi
cers." r , :.. ','r

no part inr the proceedings, asserting
that it Is a matter that the senate must

The most radical of Sulser'a friends

the National Guard if an attempt la
made to oust him from office before the
end of his actual trial.

Governor Sulzer and Mrs. Sulser
waited in the executive offices until
the Levy resolution -was adopted. The
governor then declared that he would
fight' the impeachment procedlnga imd
apply to the supreme court to restrain
further action. If necessary, he said.
he will carry the cae to the United

The . Impeachment court which will
try Sulzer will consist of the state

Mrs. Sulxer told the story of her
Wall street operations to Senator Pal

the details when he called to consult
with the governor, and after the latter
had left the room for a few minutes.
Mrs. Sulzer, it Is said, broke down
while narrating the details of her op

that she, .and not the governor, had
used portions of the campaign fund.
She said she had taken entire charge

Mrs. Sulzer said she thought she
could help him most by so doing, and

Then she admitted using some of the
funds "because the household needed
