Climber and stone' Frauds.


Climber and Stone" Frauds.
The secretary finds that large num-
bers Of settlements under the timber
and stone act have been found to be
fictitious. He says: >.a -
In the timbered regions no real settle
ment to any extent was found and in most
cases mere camping hut without furnt-
ture and destitute Of means of housekeep-
ing was all that the examiners could dis
cover on the ground. The alleged settlers,
it was learned, lived in distant towns and
cities and were induced, by promises Of
reward after the survey, to lend their
names, evidently without an intention to
make their homes on the land. The in
vestigation has thus far resulted In ma
terially checking the rapid absorption. by
INSCRIPTIONS persons of the valuable
timber now standing on the public lands
Minnesota Methods Good.
The method Of disposing Of lands by
soliciting bids instead Of at auction is
commented upon with satisfaction by
the secretary. The sales of Chippewa
coded lands in Minnesota under the
Morris act are spoken of as ''the most
successful sales of the character ever
held, both, as to the quantity Of timber
sold and the price received.' Like
methods were successful in Oregon, and
satisfactory sales were held Of Red
Lake, Rosebud and Nebraska arid lands.
Figures for the Year.
Of the extent of the years work in
disposing Of lands the secretary says:

WAR ON The LAND
RAIDERS. SUCCEEDS
Report Of Secretary Of Interior
Shows How the Thieves
Are ThWarted.
Special to The Journal.

Special to The Journal.
Washington, Dec. l3.-One Of the first
announcements made by Secretary
Hitchcock Of the interior department
in his annual report is that the ring
Of land conspirators on the Pacific
coast has been completely broken up,
that their raids on the public domain
have been stopped and the offenders
punished or brought to book. He sums
up the situation in the war of the gov
eminent against the Pacific coast raid
ers in. particular and land thieves in
general thuS:~ H. ~. ~-a-E TX. No.
The laws relating to the protection Of
the public domain and the timber there
ON have been rigidly enforced, and a con-
spiracy entered into between certain per-
sons in California and Arizona looking to
the defrauding of the government Of a
large acreage Of public lands has been de-
feated and the leading spirits therein in
dicted. In addition seventeen residents Of
Oregon have been indicted for conspiring
to defraud the government of public lands,
forgery, and other criminal acts in con-
| nection with the requirement of public
| lands; five of these have pleaded guilty,
one has been convicted, and convictions
will doubtless be obtained as a result of
the trial Of the other cases, which is now
in progress. .:..~. - -. 9>'.,
Lack Of Diligence Denied.
Going further into details later in
his report, the secretary shows that
wholly without foundation are the
charges that have been made, that "the
investigation of the land frauds by the
interior department. is not being seri.
ously and diligently conducted; that
criminal prosecutions connected with
the investigation are not being pressed
with such vigor as to manifest a deter
mination to bring the guilty parties to
speedy justice, and that an air Of Sc
recY pervades the department, making
it difficult to obtain information as to
the progress and present status Of the
work. He adds: 49,.
The leading spirits in the fraudulent
transactions brought to light are mostly
men who have occupied positions of in
f1uence and high standing, both socially
and politically, and many of them are me1
of large wealth. They have thrown man!
obstacles in the war, which have re
quired time, patience, constant effort, de
termination, and courage on the part @
: those having charge of the investigation
to overcome.
!! The prosecutions, however, will b.
pushed with every means available t.
the department.
