SHIELDED GRAFT
SENATORS MIXED UP IN WEST
ERN LAND SCANDALS.
Not Accused of IDstigating Frauds,
but 1t Is Said They Have Sought
to Shield the Crafters--
ments Expected to Be of Highly
Sensational Nature.

Washington, Oct. 26.-The interior
denartment has now for the first time
off cislly admitted the truth of the re-
norts of gigantic land frauds in Wash
;ngton, Oregon and California. 1t is
stated that the report of the special in
vestigation lie about ready. The devel-
opments will cause greater sensation
than has been supposed. The land in
volyed is millions of acres in extent
and the value OF the timber is enor-
nous.
It is known that the names of several
senator's and representatives are associ.
ated with the scandals, not as having
directly instiigated the frauds, but as
having sought to shield the land graft
ars from Justice. If some of the indict-
ments against the guilty persons are
brought in the District of Columbia, as
j. likely to he the case, developments
are expected to be of a specially sensa-
tional nature.
The department Investigators have
proceeded with great caution and six
months or more have been consumed
in the investik atoin. AS result evil
dence of the strongest kind, sufficient
to convict several persons, some OF
whom are in the general land Office in
Washington and others of whom are
nrominent men of the Pacific coast,
has been found. 1t is expected that
several guilty persons of minor impor-
lance, whose testimony is valuable to
the prosecution will turn states evil
dence.

Route Across the Isthmus Will Be
Before Congress.


Washington. Oct. 24.-While Presi-
dent Roosevelt designated in his proc
lamation calling congress in extraordi-

dictated his intention of introducing a
resolution bearing upon the canal. Mr..
Morgan will endeavor to show that the
Panama route Is now beyond considera-
ton, and he will urge that it is the

or law, to construct the canal immedi-
ately by the Nicaragua route.
