THOUSANDS GO TO
kAIMUkl zoo
SUNDAY AFTERNOON

Hundreds OF people visited the Kali
muki Zoo yesterday. The swings were
well patronized by tho children who
also get whole lot OF fun riding the
donkeys. SolOmons Hawaiian Glee
Club gave sacred concert from 2:30
TO 8 o'clock and the innovation was
much commended. The roof garden
was favorite post OF observation for
many. While enjoying the cooling
breeze and the beautiful view, the ma
jestic Mongolia and the reliable Kinau
steaming away in the distance, the men
and women on the roof garden could
keep an eye on the doings of the chill
dren below and listen to the sweet
strains OF the glee club. and the ami
mails.
The great center OF attraction was
the Brown bears that arrived the day
before and have now taken up their
permanent residence with the Zebrula
at the Zoo. There is nothing doubtful
about the origin of the bears. They
are the real thing and especially good
natured.

Agent G. l.. LOOMS, was to the same
effect. He likewise recommended that
patent be issued. But still the cases
hung fire. 1t was then that s. A. u.
Puter and Mrs Emma Watson appear.
ed on the scene in Washington. In
the meantime, however, all of the
twelve tracts in question had been
transferred by the fictitious entryman
to Mrs. Emma Watson, she alleging
that she had paid $4,000 for the lands.
Her title would not be complete until
the lands were actually patented. It
was to have the cases patented that
she and Puter came to Washington.
Soon after their arrival they enlisted
the support OF Senator Mitchell, and
on his request the cases were expedit-
ed by Commissioner Hermann and a
patent shortly issued.
In his confession made at Portland
1 few days ago Puter stated that he
lad paid Senator Mitchell $4,000 to
use his influence in having the cases
rushed through. This Senator s..>ch.
ell denies. The indictment against
Senator Mitchell charges that he had
accepted $4,000 from Puter, and that
he had knowledge of the fact that the
claims in question were fraudulent.
The indictment against Representa-.
tive Hermann alleges that he was
well acquainted with Puter. was
aware of his scheme to defraud the
Government. and that having knowl.
edge of these facts he and the com.
missioro~ ro~mitted these entries to
pass to patent.
When the twelve fraudulent home
steads were patented by the Govern.
ment they became the property OF
Mrs Watson and were sold by her TO
persons anxious to acquire timber
lands.
The details of the operations Of Pu.
ter and Mrs. Watson having become
known II has been shown that Super.
intendent Ormsby and Special Agent
Loomis, who favorably reported upon
the twelve homesteads had not act.
ually visited the lands. but had &C.
cepted the word of Puter or some OF
his accomplices. Both men are now
under indictment charged with being
parties to the conspiracy.
There are other timber land frauds
in Oregon still under investigation.
During the past two years thou.
sands of timber entries have beer
filed.
: The difficulty in prosecuting offend
ers under this law is in being able to
prove that the entries were made with
the intention Of selling or transferring
the land. The lumber companies have
been careful to make no written
agreements, and documentary proof IL
lacking.
