Two days after the o'Brien-McFad-
den meeting Terry McGoyern Is sched-
uled TO again tackle Tommy White ot
Chicago IN New York. Last April the
boys met at Tattersalls in Chicago. and
the westerner surprised the talent by
giving the featherweight champion a
fun six rounds argument. As the
Terrible Terry" had already bowled
over Eddie Santry IN the same building
In five rounds. It was not thought that
White would stay the limit White and
santry were considered the best feath-
erwelghts Ia the west.
The fight was a hot one from the tap
OF the gong. The Brooklyn Whirl-
wind" as usual. was the aggressor, and
in very short order had his opponent on
the floor
White took the full count and hardly
regained his feet when Terry was at
him again. He ripped in body blows
and right and left hooks that Kept
White nonplused. II looked as though
the battle would be ended In the first
round. White found his only recourse
was in clnchlng, and he did this so
cleyerly that McGovern found Il diih-
cult to lombard him at close range.

exodus. "Hundreds have starteb down
the river, and by midsummer the
stampede will be astonishing. Not an
idle man will remain either at Dawson
or in the district. Everybody seems
to be making preparations to go.
Dawson business men-those who
contemplate remaining-are rather
discouraged in consequence of the
rush; and for that matter many of the
business men are going or have sent
representatives to Nome City for the
purpose of securing locations.
However, the we'll known creeks OF

Timber Locating Fraud Captured

John Wood, with several aliases,
who has been active in various Sec
tons of the state locating people n
bogus timber claims, has been captur-
ed. He caught number for claims
in the north end Of Mason County
last year. I he P 1. has the following
account of his arrest
"John Wood, alias Henry Moyatt,
the alleged notorious timber land
bunko man, over whose head thirty
nine indictments for fraud are hang
ing, was last night landed IN the
county Jail. He was brought from
Vancouver by Deputy United States
Marshal Strlnger and will be arraigned
before Commissioner Kiefer tomorrow.
in bringing his prisoner to this city
Stringer was compelled to go to Port
land from Vancouver in order to take
the train. In the Oregon city a plan
was on loot to institute habeas corpus
proceedings for Woods release, but
Stringer heard of it and evaded the
attorneys who were preparing to have
She writ served upon the arrival of the
marshal in Portland.
Stringer says that Wood had 50, 900
in cash on his person when arrested.
When Wood was arrested on another
occasion in Oregon he had $4,000 in
cash, proceeds of his alleged illegiti-
mate operations.
When arraigned in the Federal court
on Monday, Wood asked further time
in which to plead to the indictments
found against HIM by the United
States grand jury and was given one
week. His bail was fixed at $1,000, in
default of which he was sent back to
Jail. Woods principal reasons for ask
ing delay yesterday was the fact that
he had not yet obtained counsel.
Had he chosen to do so he could
have obtained release On cash bail.
He was told, however, that he would
be at once fearrested on another in
dictment, and he returned to Jail.
Seven indictments for subornatlon of
prejury are now hanging over him in
Judge Hanford's court.

Olympic Reserve Loses Land.

WASHINGTON, March 15.-The Wash
ington delegation succeeded this after
noon in having about 2OO, 900 ,sressot
valley and foothill laads in Clallam
countys excluded from the olympic
forest reserve. For this they have
been working long time, in fact,
ever since they came here q year ago.
The land comp rises, approximately,
a strip across the upper part of Clsllam
county, with the exception of the ex-
treme northwestern part, thus practi-
cally making two reservations.
It was also desired to have part OF
Jefferson county excluded from the
reserve, but on account of Secretary
Hitchcock not having sufficient data
at hand this matter was deferred Tor a
short time. This reserve was created
during the Cleveland administration,
and ever since that time settlers IN
that section have been striving to
have this section excluded, as it took
practically two-thirds of Clallam coun-
ty, nearly bankrupting the county.
Such lands haye not been excluded
will be examined again with view to
settling disputed points.
Representative Wilson, of Idaho, to-
day introduced resolution requesting
the secretary of the interior to inform
the house at to the number OF acres
included within forest reserves belong
ing to land grant railroad companies,
the amount of forest reserve scrip is
sued therefor, the market value OF
said scrip and the estimated value OF
the land, in lieu of which said scrip
was issued.
He also asks a statement showing
whether the request for the creation
of said forest reserves came from the
people residing within the states where
said reserves are created, or from the
land grant railroad companies, who
have thus been enabled to exchange
lands oil little value for forest reserve
scrip worth many times the value OF
the lands in lieu of which it is issued
