SENATOR AND CONGRESSMAN
UNDER INDICTMENT.
CHARGE OF CONSPIRACY
Officials High in Public Affairs AIIeg.
ed to Have Entered into Con.
spracy to Steal Public Land From
the Government-NeWs Not Unex'
pected In Washington.

Portland, Jan Limited State
Senator Mitchell and Congressman
Binger Hermann were indicted Sat
urday for conspiracy to defraud the
United States government OF public
lands. George Sorenson, formerly
deputy sheriff Of this county, was in
dlcted for attempting to bride United
States District Attorney Hall in an
ondcayor to have him quash the in
ycsligation and indictment of certain
persons.
Alleged Senator Took Money.
The indictment alleges that Mitchell,
and Hermann in January, 1902, con,
spred, together and with 5. A, ID.
putcr and others, to defraud the GOV.
ornment out of "a portion Of It's pub
lie lands situated in township IL,
south range east, by means Of
forged and false afldayits and fictiti-
Gus persons, and that in furtherance
of such conspiracy Puter, March 3,
1902, paid Mitchell $4,000 to secure
his influence with Hermann, then
commissioner Of the general land
olIice in Washington.
1t is alleged that acting upon the
suggestion and wish Of Mitchell, and
Influenced by him, knowing the
transactions were unlawful and
relonious, Hermann used his power
as commissioner Of the generol land
once to expedite IL claims and had
them passed to patent when h"
knew them to be Illegal and not ac-
cording TO the requirements Of law.
The Indictment also alleges that
March 2S, 1904, George Sorrenson of
fcred to John Hall, district attorney
for the United Stotes in Oregon,
$1,000 with the intent to influence
Hall in his official capacity, when
acting on indictments ereturned
against PWter ct al, to delraud the
government out Of land.
Alleged connection of MITCHELL and
Hermann with alleged conspiracy
dates back, It is said, to the time when.
Mitchell received a letter from "a
prominent attorney in Oregon" intro.
ducing Puter as Il responsible bust
ness man of Oregon" The govern
mem will it Is said attempt to prove
that Puter, Mitchell and Hermann
were well acquainted, that Puter was
an ardent supporter Of Mitchell in
the senatorial campaign Of 1898 and
that all of them have been personally
acquainted for years.
Expected in Washington.
Washington, Jan. News of the
Indictment OF Senator Mitchell and
Representative Hermann for con
spllacy to defraud the government OF
public lands had been fully expected
for some time by those officials HAY,
ing to do with tho case, and it there
fore came as no surprise. Secretary
Hitchcock frankly stated that he
had looked for the Indictment at
any time, while Attorney General
Moody, who acted in conjunction
with the interior department in
bringing about the several indict-
monts, declined to make any com
ment on the result of the grand
iury's investigation, although it is be-
lieyed here that he. too was prepar-
ed for no other decision than the in
dictment of the two men.
