MOTHER MAY SAVE
FOSBURGH'S LIFE
Her Testimony Expected to Clear
Her Son of the Charge of Slay-
ing His Sister.

| BY Exclusive Wire from The Associated Press
Pttsfield, Mass, July 2l.-It is ru-
mored that the defense in the trial
of Robert Fosburgh, accused of kill
ing his sister last year. relies chiefly
on the testimony of the defendants
mother to carry conviction to the
jury of the truth of the family's story
that there were intruders in the house
on the night of the shooting and that
the eldest daughter met death at their
hands. The fact has been known but
overlooked that it was Mrs. Robert
Fosburgh, the mother, who is alleged
to have had the first sight of the
burglars.
Friends of the Fosburghs say that
the defendants mother has been the
backbone of the whole family all
through this trying affair. Since the
trial began she has been the most
buoyant of the Defendants large party
and not with the light cheerfulness of
Indifference or insensibilty. Her
composurc has elected admiration.
District Attorney Hammond said to-
night that it would not take later
than Tuesday night, at the furthest,
to get the states evidence all in. The
be dismissed through lack of proof
defense will then move that the case
If Judge Stevens decides to hear the
| witnesses for Fosburgh, it is not likely
that the case will go to the jury be-
| fore Thursday night or Friday.
Mir. Hammond said that the case Of
| the state had been fully stated. There
are no sensational surprises to come,
| he said, and the entire evidence will
| be chain of circumstances, all Of
which will tend to show that young
FOsburgh fired the shot that killed his
sister. Three of the links have al
ready been forged by the state. There
are four or five more to be added.
During the evening, it was announc-
ed authortatively that every alleGa-
| tion of the prosecution will be met,
but met in one way only. The Fos-
| burghs will go on the stand and re-
iteratc their stories of the happenings
i'm their house on the night of the kill
| ing, They will be content with this
| The attitude of the FosburEhS is
| marvelously confident and serene. No
one of the family has any fear of the
case so far made out by the state.
| They are all evidently on the most low
ing and intimate terms with each
| other.

the Dickson, of the Delaware and
Hudson company. at North Scranton.
Not only this. but there is a strong
probability that three collieries of the
ontario and Western coal department
and the Brsbin and Cayuga collieries
of the Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western company. will be opened to-
day A committee of firemen from the
Cayuga and Brisbin collieres waited
upon Chief Clerk Tobey, of the coal
department on Saturday. and asked IL
they could have their places back If
they returned to work.
Mr.. Tobey referred them to the SUI
perintendents of their respective
mines and as the latter have instruc-
tions to take back any of the strik-
ers who may return to work. 1t is
probable that these two mines will
be started again this morning.
Superintendent John II. Dryden, of
the coal department of the ontario
and Western company, stated yester-
day afternoon to Tribune man that
committee from the striking firemen
at the Pancoast, johnson No. 1 and
Richmondale mines of the company,
had waited upon him Saturday to see
ii they could get their places back. Mr..
Dryden says he told them they could
upon certain CONDITIONS" but just
what these were, he would not divulge.
He said that the men seemed favor
able to these conditions and had every
hope that these three mines would re-
sumo work today.
DELAWARE AND HUDSON ALONE
If all the colieries above mentioned
are opened today, practically the only
ones which will be closed will be the
Delaware and Hudson collieries, and it
Is questionable whether the men be-

when they see that they are the only
ones on strike. 1t Is generally con-

CONTRACTS FOR SURVEYS.
Surveyor General 6eattie Busy Pre-
pairing for Work Of Season.

Surveyor General Beattie Busy Pre-
pairing for Work Of Season.
Surveyor General E. w. Beattie is
busy letting contracts for the sur
vey of a large number of new town
ships which will be surveyed in the
state during the coming summer. The
appropriation for public surveys in
Montana this year was only $4,000,
which is by no means sufficient to
cover all of the new surveys desired
by settlers throughout the state.
Last year $4,000 was appropriated
for this work in Montana, and at the
last session of congress, Mr.. Beattie
asked for $4,000, as he deemed this
sum necessary to cover the public sur.
veys that were actually needed in this
state. Practically three-fifths of the
whole area of this state is as yet un.
surveyed, and this fact is responsible
for large quantity of good land lying
idle. There are few states in the
west with as little surveyed land in
proportion as Montana and settler
always desires, if possible, to settle
on surveyed land. If this is imprac-
ticable the next best thing is to settle
on unsurveyed lands and petition the
department for survey.
There are now more petitions on file
than the appropriation will cover
and this will work considerable hard
ship on a number of settlers, who will
have to wait until next year or even
later to get their homesteads survey
ed.
Owing to the fact that the bill open
ing up a portion of the Grow reserva-
ton was killed in the last session of
congress no surveys will be made in
the reservation this year, neither will
there be any surveys on the Flathead
reservation, as no part of the reserva-
ton has as yet been coded to the ma
tional recommendations Independ-
ent.
