WORK OF The LAND OFFICE
EXTRACTS FROM REPORT OF
COMMISSIONERS RICHARDS.
Receipts for the Year Show a Falling
off-Fewer Acres Were
Disposed Of.

Washington, Nov. 23.-In his annual
report for this year, Commissioner
Richards, of the general landoffice recon-
mends the exercise of more deliberate
consideration of propositions looking to
the establishment of forest reserves
than has been exercised in the past.
During the last fiscal year nine reserves
were created, bringing the total number
up to SO and increasing the aggregate
area covered by forest reservations to
62, ,763, ,494 acres.
The report shows falling off Of
$1,741 ,401 in the total receipts of the Of
flee as compared with the previous year
and decrease in the area of public land
disposed of, amounting to 6,418,477
acres. With the exception of 1903 the
cash receipts were greater than any pre-
Vious year. The patents issued for the
year numbered sc, 1856, and exceeded those
for any other IL months in the history of
the office. The receipts were $9,283, ,341
and the land disposed of aggregated 16,-
4O5,S21 acres. Of this quantity 10,171,-
265 acres were entered under the home
stead law, 2,353,5S4 were patented as
railroad selections, and 1906 ,261 under
timber and stone entries.
Speaking of the frauds committed
under the timber and stone act Mr.. Rich
ards says: During the last year it
was decided to use the corps of exam
iners Of surveys to investigate in the
field all applications for surveys which
alleged settlement, and the result has
proven the wisdom of this course. In the
timoered regions no real settlement to
any extent was found, but in most cases
a mere camping hut, without furniture
and destitute of the means of housekeeu-
Ing was all that the examiner could dis
cover on the ground. 1t was learned
that these alleged settlers resided in dis
tant towns and cities"
With respect to unlawful Enclosures
l37 reports were received, showing an
area of 1,359,567 acres of public land
unlawfully inclosed. Through the ef-
forts of special agents, 80 unlawful in
closures, embracing 717,505 acres of
public land, have been removed and pro-
ceedings are pending to compel the re-
naming cases reported. Mr.. Richards
says that specific instructions have been
given the special agents to secure the
removal of all unlawful Enclosures upon
public lands.
According to the report the total
amount covered into the treasury for
the benefit Of the reclamation fund
amounted to $23.O12.SS6 on the sOth of
June last.

FAMILY FIGHTS
TO SAVE ITS HOME
DESPERATE BATTLE OCCURS IN
WEST VIRGINIA.
DRUNKEN MOB SEEKS VICTIM
Unable to Find Him They Demolish
His Residence--one Is Fatally
Wounded--Woman Is
Also Shot.

Huntington, w. Va, Nov. 23.-The
community across the Big Sandy river
from Yorkville, was the scene of fatal
feud during Monday night between the
family of John Wallace and the Curry
brothers. The latter demanded liquor
in Wallace's saloon. They were refused
because it is alleged they were already
intoxicated. When the Curry brothers
began shooting Wallace closed his sa-
loon. Later, the Curry brothers, with
others, went to Wallace's home, demand
ing that Wallace come out. When Mrs.
Wallace stated that her husband was not
home, the crowd broke in the windows.
Shot by Woman
Mrs. Wallace then fired into the crowd,
fatally wounding Thomas Curry. The
crowd Immediately began tearing down
the Wallace home, and seized the brother
Of Mrs. Wallace. They bound him hand
and foot and laid his head on log.
One of the Curry brothers was about to
decapitate the boy when Wallace fired
into the crowd and prevented the de-
capitation. The crowd later resumed
the destruction of Wallace's home,
throwing the debris into the Big Sandy
river.
Mrs. Wallace was shot twice, once in
the limb and the other time in the shoul-
der. She rode to Louisa, KY, where she
gave the alarm, and the sheriff and dep
uties left for the scene of trouble. Wal
lace escaped to Yorkville All Of his
livestock was killed by the mob. 1t is
estimated that about 500 shots were ex-
changed, and that ten members of the
mob were badly injured. A reward has
been offered of $1,000 for the apprehen-
sion of any member Of the mob. ~

Synopsis Of Evidence
on Tuesday.

New York, Nov. 23.-Search for a
missing witness who formerly has elud-
ed the detectives of the district attor-
ney's Office and the possibility that one
of the central figures in the case-the
dead mans widow-would appear be-
fore the jury and tell her story,
were the points Of special interest Tues
day when the trial Of Nan Patterson for
the alleged murder Of Caesar Young
was resumed. In outlining his case
Monday, Assistant District Attorney
Rand informed the jury that the prose-
cution, after months of endeavor, have
been unsuccessful in locating J. Morgan
Smith, who, he claimed, purchased the
revolver with which Young was
killed. He hoped, however, that Smith
would be brought forward by the de-

CThe above sketch of Nan Patterson, the
actress on trial in New York for the kill
ing OF Caesar Young, depicts a critical mo-
ament when the defendant was ordered by
the court to face the Jurors as they were
undergoing examination)
6ense at the proper time. Later in the
day Miss Patterson's counsel, Mr.. Levy
said the defense had no intention of pro-
ducing Smith.
Only the announcement that the de-
fendant herself would go on the stand
and tell of her acquaintance with Young
could have created more public inter
est than the report that the dead book
makers widow might appear in the
case. Since the day her husband died
= Mrs. Young has remained in seclusion,
except when she called at the district
attorneys Office and testified before the
grand jury. During the trial she has not
appeared in the courtroom, but it is
said she has followed all the proceed
ings from an adjoining room.
A big crowd was present in the court
d room when the trial was resumed.
Sensational Features.
4 Several unusual features were pre-
sented in the court Tuesday in the trial.
Frederick d. Michaels, the cabman, de-
scribed the cab in which Young met his
death. He said that he heard the sound
of pistol shot and that Miss Patterson
opened the trap a moment later and
told him to drive to drug store, but
that he did not look into the cab. He
then told what occurred up to the time
when he reached the hospital, where
Young's body was taken.
During the day skeleton and two
pieces of skin from Young's second
finger were produced in court by the
prosecution. The skeleton was shown
in order that the course of the bullet
that killed Young might be traced. The
state, it is understood, expects to use
the pieces of skin in refuting the suicide
theory. The introduction of these ex-
hibits caused a sensation in the court
room and for time Miss Patterson
seemed on the verge of collapse. The
court room was crowded when the trial
was resumed and the corridors of the
building were thronged.
Several policemen were put on the
witness stand to testify regarding Incl
dents that followed the arrest of Miss
Patterson and Police Captain Sweeney
identified the revolver which he said
was found in Young's pocket after the
shooting. Coroner's Physician O'Han-
lon, who performed the autopsy, was
called and said the cause Of death was
hemorrhage of the left lung resulting
from bullet wound. BY means Of the
skeleton he then showed the direction
taken by the bullet.
At the close Of today's proceedings
an adjournment will be taken until
next Monday.
