iAIAsHINCTON. Dee. Regarding
wv the statement that he had re-
fused to go to Portland at the
earnest and repeated request OF the
special prosecutor TO testify in the land
frauds trial. Senator John A. Mitchell
said today.
i was for four months prior to my

time, with the exception Of a few days,
in the city of Portland; and further
more, 1t was known TO John II. Hail.

more than week before I left Port

ington at the time / did Therefore.
II my testimony was regarded as inn
pOrtant in the land fraud cases there
was ample opportunity to secure my
attendance by subpoena; or. even had
II been suggested TO me without a
subpoena that my testimony i'm the
cases was desired, l certainly should
nave postponed my starting east and
would have gladly gone on the witness
stand and given any testimony within
my knowledge bearing on the cases.
i arrived in Washington late on
the evening of Nov. 23. and. prior TO
that time / had not The slightest in
tlmatiOn from any source whatever
that my testimony was deemed i'm
portant or that my presence as a wit
ness was desired by the government

If | We're on the witness stand and
the court should rule that it was ma
terlal and competent for me TO give
the name of the prominent and reli-
able attorney referred to in my dis
patch, l., OF course, would do so: but
l did not and do not now feel iusti-
ned in voluntarily mixing up with the
land frauds business the name of a
prominent citizen, who, so far as ]
am advised. has never been indicted
ana whose name has never in any wise
been mixed up in connection with the
alleged frauds.
The affidaVits which I transmitted
ton Commissioner Hermann, assuming
the statements contained in the same
10 be true-and l had no reason what
ever 10 believe they were not true
presented very strong reasons why the
cases retired to in thse affidavits and
pnding in the land Office should be
made special, 10 the end that the rights
or all parties concerned might be de-
termined at as early a date as pos
sible- If these aifidavits. handed me
by Puter, were untrue. then 1 was
simply imposed upon by him."

health.
Mrs. Gilbert died of cerebral apo
pleXy. She lived but an hour and a
half after being stricken. The attack
is said by the attending physician TO
have been due directly TO the shock
of cold water bath.
The physicians were unable TO arouse
Mrs Gilbert from the deathlike stupOr
into which she had sunken, and death
came without Mrs. Gilbert having re-
gained consciousness. DR.. ,Corbus
said:
Mrs Gilbert had been accustomed
to taking cold baths every morning,
but TO j person of her age this was
too strenuous

There was a smile upon the aged
