Congressman Will Have to Answer the Portland Indictments Before Others. A Washington spooial to the Oregon Daily Journal says it has been de cided by the government to try Con pressman Hermann first nudor the in dictments bronght against him in Ore gon. No spooido date has been set for the trial, whioh will take place in Portland, but it is thought by Secre tary Hitchcock and District Attorney Franois J. Heuey that the trial will be set duriug the early part of Decem ber. It was at first ooutemplated to try Hormauu in Washington under the in dictment found against him alleging destruction of government records. The local district attorney, however, has several oases on hand growing out of the allogod frauds iu the postoffioo, whioh have precedence, and must 1 heard before Horiuaun's case can be reached. So it has been decided to try Hormauu under the Oregon iudict weivta first. Attorney Heuey will leave Washing ton tho latter part of the week for Portland. Three iudictuiouta are peuding against Congressman liiuger Hermann iu this state. The snddeu decision of Secretary Hitchcock and tho depart ment of justice to bring the Oregon indictments to trial iu advance of that found iu tho District ot Columbia will caiwe some surprise, nud it was be lieved iu many quarters that Her mann would be tried first at Washing ton. The three iudiotuiouU pending iu thisatuto are knowu respectively as the "Butter creek case," the "Blue Mountain conspiracy" aud the "117 case." Iu the first named Congress man Hormauu was iudicted joiutly with W. W. Steiwer, Franklin Pierce Mays, Edwin Mays, John II. Hall, C E. Looiuin, H. H. Heudricks and others, on the charge of feuciug gov ernment lands. It is generally sup posed that this case will not be the first ouo to bo tried, though District Attorney Heuey has as yet given no indication as to the order of trials. The Blue Mountaiu case is one of the most famous of all the indict ments returned iu the course of the Oregon laud fraud investigations. Senator John H. Mitohell, Congress man Hermann, Congressman William son, State Senator F. P. Mays, Willard N. Jones and George Sorenson were iudicted on the charge of conspiring to defraud the government of 200,000 aores of laud within the boundaries of the Blue Mountain forest reserve. The indictment alleges that the fraud was to be accomplished largely by moans of fraudulent purchases ' of state school lands iu Crook, Grant, Harney, Malheur, Baker, Union, Umatilla and Wallowa counties, such lands lying within the boundaries of the proposed reserve. Incidentally the case involves the operations of the ring whioh was robbing the state ot its school lands by means of forged applications aud dummy applicants. The third indictment in which Con gressman Hermann is named as a de fendant has to do with the transactions of the Puter ring in township "11-7," and also brings in Puter's famous story of the paymont of $2,000 to Sen ator Mitchell for his services in ex pediting the patenting of fraudulent claims. The other defendants besides Hermann are Senator Mitchell, S. A. D. Puter, Horaoe G. McKinley, Emma L. Watson, Dau Tarpley, E. K. Brown, Mrs. Nellie Brown, Henry A. Young, Frank H. Walgamot, Clark E. Loom is aud S. B. Oriusby. All of the de fendants are alleged to have been par ties to a conspiracy to defraud the govoruuiout of its lands and the in dictment sets forth the alleged pay ment of 3,000 by Puter to Senator Mitchell at Washington on March 9, 1002. Under $500 Bonds, v. Having eutered a plea of not guilty to the charge of rape said to have been committed several months ago upou the young daughter of B. F. Myrick, Ela Weiuuott, a farm hand, was bouud over yesterday under 500 bail to await the action of the court, by Jndge Fitzgerald, says the Tribune. Weiuuott was captured near Dayton a few days ago . aud aneeted upon the charge which had been entered agaiust him for several mouths. He was working in the Helix couutry wbeu the crime is alleged to have been com mitted aud immediately afterwards he disappeared and was not located until last week. ' Barbers Examined.
