and Clara A. Keep, and J. A. Mea.ru,
trustee for the Keeps, asking; for an
accounting In connection with certain

rraud Charge Denied.
Miller denies that Keep was de
frauded out of anything In connec
tion with the project to irrigate Wap
lnitla flat. In Wasco county. .Keep
charges that Miller, while acting at
attorney for him, manipulated the or
ganization and acts of the companies
involved so as to defraud him out
of large holdings. Among these com
panies were the Clpar Iake Irrigation
Iiumber company, the Kastern Irri
gation Power & Lumber company, and
the Western Irrigation Power & Lum
ber company.
Denial is made that Keep spent
$418,000 on the project, while It is as
serted by Miller that Keep spent not
to exceed $10,000. It Is not true. Miller
avers, that Keep ever was In position
to furnish water to Wapinitla flat.
Miller admits that Keep organised
the Eastern Irrigation Power A Lum
ber company with a capital stock of
150.000 and $200,000 bond Issue and
that the bonds were held by Keep, but
he denies that the bonds were taken
to secure Keep for money advanced to
the company. He says Keep did not
advance-any money to the company.
To Sedeem Bond Issue.
He asserts that the bonds were
turned over to Kefep to redeem $150,
000 bond Issue made by the Clear
Lake Irrigation & Lumber company
and the company's other Indebtedness.
He says after this transaction Keep
sold- him one-half of all the remain
ing bonds of the Eastern Irrigation
Lumber company, and one-half of
all the rights and franchises owned
by Keep In connection with the power
projects.
Miller says he acted aa attorney for
Keep In certain criminal actions In
Wasco county. He asserts this was
the only capacity In which he acted as
attorney for Keep.
He says the property was turned
over to him as trustee as the result
pf an Agreement among Keep's cred
Ataraat.to ssST-for receiver for his
. , ,
companies. He says he voted the stock
of the Eastern Irrigation Power &
Lumber company under direction of
Keep, and last May returned to Keep
the stock he held in trust and de
livered certain bonds as specified by
Keep.

THE WESTERN FRONT
London. Sept. 21. (I. N. S.) With
bad weather Interrupting strenuous
action along the entire western front,
the Roumanian and Macedonian thea
tres of war remained the centers of
Interest and dispatches today indicated
that the heaviest fighting Is in prog
ress there.
The Bulgarians are retreating, Jut it
Is believed their purpose is to make
preparations for a valiant stand before
Monastlr. A great battle for the point
of vantage Is believed imminent. Tho
Bulgars are throwing up strong en
trenchments, but their work is ser
iously hampered by the advancing Ser
bians, who are harrasslng the enemy
rear guard. War critics predict that
it will take the Serbians at least a
week to negotiate an entrance into
Monastlr.
Dobrudja Battle Xrftffs.
For two days there has been fu
rious fighting In the vicinity of Do
brudja, but action was reported at a
standstill today. Field Marshall Von
Mackensen's combined German. Bul
garian and Turkish forces have been
striking for the railroad from Cons
tanza to Interior Roumania. Accounts
from both sides say these assaults
have been checked.
The Roumanian and Russian forces
appear to have been greatly rein
forced in their offensive. The Sofia
war office today said the Bulgarians
were able to hold their strongly forti
fied positions under fierce charges.
