Suit
Flhtl Against Timber Concern
in Seattle Federal Court.
Walls Walla. Oct 26. Henry Hew
itt. Jr., of Tncoma, the Weycrhauser
Timber company, the Willamette Pa
per company of Portland, C. W. Clark.
K. C. Olover and C. C. Olosslln are
named as defendants In it complaint
filed In the federal court In Seattle by
District Attorney Jesse Frye, asking
for the annulment of patents to 6000
acres of timber lands, alleged to have
been arnulred by frnud.
Though the suit was brought a
week ago It was a secret until yes
terday and even now papers hove not
been served nn the Tacoma defend
ants, at least. So the location of the
lands In question Is not known here at
this time.
Mr. Hewitt and the Weycrhauser
company are made defendants because
they arc the present owners of the
Innds and the purchasers of lieu land
scrip, whose validity Is clouded by the
alleged fraudulent operations of John
A. Benson nnd Frederick A. Hyde.
These two may have to answer to a
criminal charge, although the district
attorney has not yet decided on his
action In that respect
