Washington, Feb. 16.-The presi
dents message transmitting to the sen.
ate the new Santo Domingo protocol
was read at the executive session yes
terday. Not more than six or seven
senators were present. The leading
feature of the message was that in or
der to maintain the Monroe doctrine ii
was necessary for the United States to
see that just claims contracted by
South and Central American repub.
lies and those of the West Indies should
be paid, and that therefore it was in
the interest of peace for this govern
ment to take over the control of the
revenues of Santo Domingo. The sui b.
ject of the Monroe doctrine is discussed
at some length. The protocol was not
read at the executive session, but was
at once sent to the committee on for

deed of acquisition was laid before ii

by the administration only after en-
countering the most strenuous OppoSi-
ton. The price. $7,20O,OOO, was paid
out, so the general verdict had it, for
huge eXpanse of territory that would
always be a burden to the govern
mcnt. The idea that it would ever

GRAND JURY ADJOURNS.
Land Fraud Investigations Suspend
ed For Time.

Portland, Feb. 15.-The last day of
the land fraud Investigations has borne
its fruit and has passed, and the fed
eral grand jury, from whose hands so
many of the prominent men of the
state have received unenviable notice,
has separated until the word of Dis
trict Attorney Heney shall call them
together again in the first days of
April.
On the closing day, just before ad-
journment. the jury returned the long
expected indictment dealing with the
Blue Mountain reserve and the alleged
frauds the government claims we're at
tempted to be perpetrated by its crea-
ton. In the indictment are implica-
ted John H. Mitchell, Binger Her.
mann, John w. Williamson, Franklin
Pierce Mays, W. H. Jones and George
Sorenson.
The charge is that the defendants
attempted to defraud the government
out of the possession and use of and
title to 200, 900 acres of land situated
in various parts of the states and terri
tories of the nation and of the total
value of more than 81, 100000
The adjournment of the jury at this
time was alto low Mr.. Heney to go to
Washington for the purpose of arguing
a motion for writ of habeas corpus
in the Hyde Dia mond case before the
United States court.
Mr.. Heney expects to be away from
this city about month. On his re-
turn it is believed that he will recon-
vene the grand jury, and that the ses-
sion which will follow will be as pro-
ductive of important indictments as
the one which has just ended
indictments were also returned
against Former United States District
Attorney John H. Hall, Private Detec-
tive H. P. Ford. Former Major H. L..
Rees, Deputy Sheriff John Cordano, A.
P. Cayler, local rgain broker, and
Fred S. Simpson, saloonkeeper
The charge against Hall, Rees, Ford,
Cordano and Cayler is that they con-
spired to defeat the ends of justice by
attacking the reputation of District
Attorney Heney.

CEMENT CITY.
New Town to Be Established on

Great Northern.
Seattle, Feb. 15.-It is stated that
shortly after March new town,
backed by a new enterprise, will spring
into existence 2S miles east of Burling-
ton, Skagit county, on the line of the
Great NORTHERN railway.
The new town will be called Cement
City, and the enterprise that will re-
suit in placing the new town on the
map will be the manufacture of Port
land cement. There will not be an
other concern of the kind within a
thousand miles of Seattle, and it is
GAINED that all the tests show the &C.
ment that may be made from the rock
and clay found at the place where the
town is to be built, to be equal to the
imported article.
The new enterprise is capitalized at
5000, 900 and it is stated that the stock
has all been subscribed.
The Grea Northern will put in side
tracks and the foundation of a new
town will be laid in cement.
