ON THE TRAIL AGAIN
Grand Jury Going After Big Game
4 Tomorrow.
W1RTENsoHN THE STAR WITNESS
Believed to- Know Much and to BE
Ready to- Tell All-Corrob-
grafton Easy.

The grand jury will meet tomorrow for
an important hunt and the object will be
big game the biggest in the police force.
NO great difficulty is expected in the
way OF finding sufficient evidence on which
to base Indictment, for where the Jurors
two months ago had to employ all the
arts of persuasion and intuition, simply
to take long chance in returning an in
dictment, the game is now ready to be
pOtted at any time.
Otto Wlrtensohn, detective, will undoubtedly
be summoned before the jury, and in light of
his testimony in the Fred Ames case this
morning there can be no other conclusion
than that he has decided to make a clean
treast of the corruption in the police depart
ment, as far as he knows Of it from personal
observation.
Christopher Norbeck was manifestly pleased
to hear his former colleague: on the plain
clothes squad tell his story on the stand
this morning, and was displeased when Judge
Simpson refused to allow Wirthensohnt to
testify regarding his official visits in the
red light" district.
They shouldn't have stopped him." re-
marked the ex-detective afterward- He
knows lot, that boy does, but he wasn't al
lowed to tell anything. l am glad that he
corroborated ME about the list of big NIT
men that Captain Hill had and showed to the
boys. Now that he has told that much. you
can bet he is going to tell a great deal more,
and it will all be hot stuff i hope they'll
get all the bunch.
In addition to Wirtensohn's evidence there
will be corroborative testimony, by Norbeck
and aCrie Emeson, who Is still IN jail On
eyey mateial point one the othe OF these
two can confirm what Wirtensohn will have
to say.
1t is understood that the harvest will con-
sist in a crop of indictments against Cap
tain Charles Hill and Red Cohen with ad-
ditional counts against Mayor Ames, Super
intendent Ames and Captain Coffee John
Fitchette.

COMPLAINT OF Mr.. DUNN
AT ORDER OF LAND COMMISSIONER
1t Handicaps the State in the Sc.
lection Of Indemnity
Lands.

State Auditor Dunn is much disturbed
over news from Duluth. The land office
there has ben notified by Land Commits
sioner eHrman to reserve from selection
large tracts in Lake and Cook counties
for forest reserve purposes.
The state has about 100000 acres 20 Sc
lect. as indemnity land for the, school
lands of which it has bene deprived In the
Chippewa reservations. There is COM
paratively little government land OF value
left, and this action Of the land depart
ment will still further cut down the stat 8
chances Of securingE valuable selections.
Says Mr.. Dunn: ..,...,
It meas that there will be about 100000
acres less for US to select from, and there Is
little enough good land left. Now that the
house failed to pass resolution we have
to wait for the squatters to make their Sc
tlections, and now the government steps IN
ahead Of the squatters. It looks as though
we were coming out at the little end of the
horn.
Talk about protecting the squatters. The
records of the land Office will show that not
one-tenth of those who have proved up on
homestead claims are actual settlers now
They ara generally agents for lumber COM
panies. The interests Of the state scnoo
fund should not be allowed to suffer on thelI
account.
Mr.. Dunn and Land Celrk Finn are dis
gusted5 at the failure Of the resolution
which was agreed on ais result OF MI
Films trip to Washington. It gave the
state the. same. right as, squatters in Sc.
lecting the indemnity school lands. II
was put through the senate and went or
the house calendar. It was: agreed that
Frank Eddy should move its passage on
the last day and that Speaker Henderson
should recognize him ninth on the list. II
is given out from Washington that the
resolution was: not brought up oWang &c
the objection of Mr.. Lacey Of Iowa, chair
man of the committee on public lands
Before Mr.. Finn left Washington, how
ever, Mr.. Lacey had expressed himself as
entirely satisfied with the resolution. The
opinion in, the state auditors office Is
that the interests Of the, state Of iMnne-
sofa we're very poorly taken care OF n

YACHTING

Sir Thomas Upton, according to reli-
able authority, has decided to challenge
again for the America cup.
The new boat will be designed by Will
liam Fife and will have Robert Wrings
for skipper.
There is belief that the boat is al
ready on paper and that cont racts have
been signed for her construction at some
yard On the Clyde.
The announcement that Wringe is to
be the skipper is of great int crest. His
experience in American waters has been
considerable since his connection with the
first Shamrock and he is thoroughly fa-
miliar with conditions there and other
matters which should be of service to him
in other cup contests.
He Is smart and able sea jockey, who
may give Charley Barr more trouble than
did CAPITA Sycamore.
In the New York Yacht club the feeling
Is that there will be no need to build an
other cup defender, as the Columbia or
Constitution Is capable OF taking cars OF
any craft that may be sent here.

SPORTS
WITH THE EQUINES

On track that was lightning fast, and
before q crowd of $4,000 persons, F. G,
McLewee & Co.'s Gold Heels, favorite in
the betting 13 to 10, galloped home an
easy winner in the Brighton handicap at
the Brighton race track Saturday
He not only lowered Jack Points record
of 2:04 s-5, made in 1900, but established a
new worlds record for circular track.
The time was 2:03 As, within 2-5 of a sec
ond of worlds record, (2:o3A), made by
Banquet in 1880, with 108 pounds up, on
the straight course at the Monmouth Park
track.
The performance of Gold Heels was
really wonderful considering that he was
carrying 128 pounds. There is no telling
how fast this great horse could have run
if Odom had ridden him out.
The field THAT made up the handicap
was small and select. Gold Heels was
always a consistent favorite for he was
rated at 13 to 10, with Morningside second
choice at to and the Keene entry
Port Royal, next demand at to /. The
start was prompt and good. Blues was
first to show with Gold Heels second
Northern Star, third and Herbert fourth
Turning into the stretch Odom got the
favorite in the lead and from there to the
wire he was never in trouble, winning
easily by half a length from Blues, who
was "a head in front Of Argregor, who
closed very gamely under q terrific drive

Special to- The Journal.
Montreal, July 7.-English statesmen have
been working quietly on a scheme to settle
the Alaskan boundary question, and they be-
lieve9 that they have solved the problem.
They propose to trade: several islands in the
West Indies to the United States for a port
in Alaska, Dyea being the spot most desired,
it is believed. The United States is eager
to get hold Of more West Indies islands for
strategtcal purposes: Great Britain has so
many islands in that part Of the world that a
few could be spared without injury to British
Interests. and as the United States appears to
be so keen just now to obtain islands near
the Caribbean sea, the British statesmen be-
lieve they have hit upon a. good basis. for a
trade: They have sounded Secretary Hay in
a general way and the promise been made by
him that next autumn he will be in posi-
tion to discuss the whole, Alaskan problem
with a view to definite action.
