MISSIONARY SOCIETY EXPLAINS

LONDON. Dec. 3.--CSpecial Cablegram to

of the Baptist Missionary society. has made
an official explanation of the charges
brought against the society in connection
with the Congo atrocities Going back to
the time when the attack on the society
and its missionaries began, he related In
detail the facts concerning the memorial
presented to the king of the Belgians
thanking him for a remission of taxation

institutions in the Congo Free State. At

the rubber districts, and therefore their
missionaries had but little evidence to
offer. But such letters as were sent home

even before they were presented to the
committee. II was absolutely false to say
that the letters had been suppressed by
officers Of the society, and il was equally
false TO infer that the mouths OF the agents
Of the society had been closed. As to the
, indictment brought against the society that
its protest was tardy one, it was not
surprising that with the knowledge Of King

PORTLAND, Ore. Dec. 3.-Only when all
persons holding certificates for school lands
in the state have sent their certificates 10
Salem to have them examined will II be
possible to mako an estimate Of the gi-
gantic swindles perpetrated on castcrners
by interruptions land operators. Gov
ernor Chamberlain stated to the Associated
Press today that there Is no limit to the
number Of forged checks which could
have been made and il is safe to say, he
added, that where the certificates were
hypothecated the full amount shown by
the certificate was obtained or where sales
were made outright the full value of the
land as shown by land cruising was paid
by the victim
Very few OF the persons who POSSESS
forged certificates are known so far, hut
from the fact that persons in Minnesota,
Wisconsin. Illinois. New York. Ohio and
Florida are in possession OF them. the Off
cials fear that when the whole number de-
velops It win include people in every state
east of the Mississippi river.
The heaviest losers known to the Off
cials so far are II Goddard OF Ia Crosse.
Wis. George Baldwin of Appleton Wis,
and II. NJ Delaittre OF Minneapolis.
Governor Chamberlain said that at tho
present time no was unable to say who the
fraudulent officlals are. From others it is
learned that certain persons are under
suspicion but It is added that this suspi-
cion is based on the fact that man
now under conviction in the federal courts
under conspiracy to defraud the United
States government now appears as the
assignee of the original entrymen in one
of the forged certificates.
