Second Trial Of Land Fraud Gases
Not So long as First.
JUDGE BENNETT Is PUGNACIOUS
Endeavors to Tangle UP Government
Witnesses-Testimony Similar to
That of the First Trial.

Portland, July 25.-The first days
work in the Williamson trial has
shown two things; one, that the time
consumed will in all probability not be
so long as in the first hearing; the
other, that the defense is going to use
the testimony of the first trial as a club
with which to chastise the witnesses
for the government, throw them into
confusion if possible, and thus weaken
the force of their testimony before the
present jury.
Judge Benefits pugnacious cross
examination of the three witnesses
Campbell Duncan, Ben F. Jones and
Frank Ray, was the feature. Upon
the opening of the trial the government
first called Duncan, who told the same
story related at the first trial of having
taken up claim at the suggestion of
Gesner and with the understanding
that he should get $75 for it when pat
ented. The direct examination was
short and to the point. Mr.. Heney
taking advantage of the knowledge
gained at the first trial to eliminate all
superfous matter and recitation. The
same was the case with the evidence
given by Jones and Ray, but when the
witnesses were turned over to the de-
Tense they were given an unpleasant
time by Judge Bennett, who questioned
them as to their testimony and brought
them face to face with what they had
said in the former trial.
This catechism related particlarly to
the cross-examination at the previous
trial when the questions had been ask
ed by Judge Bennett. These questions
were many of them leading in nature
and ran with the preceding testimony,
so that when the witnesses, particular
ly Ray, were asked if they had made
certain answers they denied them,
though holding still to the intent and
purpose of the first statement made.
The meaning in many instances was ac-
cepted as what had been meant though
the exact language was denied.

PAUL JONES' BODY ARRIVES.
Vessels of American Navy Travel T..
900 Miles Without Mishap.


Annapolis, July 25.-The John Paul
Jones expedition, commanded by Rear
Admiral Sigsbee. will complete its mis-
sion with the landing of the distin-
guished dead today. The eight ships
of the squadron, four cruisers and four
battleships have rested all day in the
anchorage of the naval academy, lying
in double column, with the cruisers,
headed by the Brooklyn, nearest the
city.
The day has been without ceremony,
with the exception of the exchange of
calls between Admiral Sands, superin-
tendent of the naval academy, and Ad-
mirals Sigsbee and Davis and Captain
f. D. Gervais, of the French cruiser
Jurien de la Graviere.
On the half deck of the Brooklyn, in
a spacious compartment at the entrance
to the cabin of Admiral Sigsbee, lies
the body of John Paul Jones, contained
in a casket of lead inclosed in another
of wood of handsome design, and drap-
ed with the colors. Constant guard
is kept by an armed jackie.
Admiral Sigsbse regards his mission
as eminntly successful and satisfacto-
ry. His squadron has steamed nearly
1000 miles without delay on account
of accident or mishap to machinery.
