MANY ARRESTS TO FOLLOW
Claimed That Large Number of Per-
sons Have Proved Up on Timber
Lands Under a Contract With
Syndicate With Money.

It is stated on good authority that
the land fraud Investigations will not
stop at the indictment of the big fish
but will be pursued into every county
in the state. and that number OF
timber syndicates which have been
buying timber lands will also be in
vestigated. And it is not going to end
there. 1t is claimed that large num-
Der Of men have been induced to go
upon timber lands. filed on them, in
many instances without ever being on
the lands. proved up on them, and
swear that they had not sold or hypno-
thecated them to any one, but We're
taking them up for their own use, and
and as soon as proved up on, immedi-
ately sold them to some timber syndi-
cate. In many instances the men only
received 500, while in others the SYM
dicates furnished the money to prove
up with. paid all expenses, and the land
was transferred to them for a nominal
consideration. In great many filings
those who filed did not have a dollar
with which to pay expenses, and the
money was furnished by the timber
syndicates, although many of the men
who filed swore that they had not bor-
rowed any money from any timber
syndicate.
" Max Phract. a special agent of the
government, has made several trips to
Ciatsop county and has been conduct
ing a quiet investigation into the land
frauds. other special agents of thel
government have been and are in the
city at the present time. Their reports
are sent in regular to Special Inspector
Greene and the evidence is being ac-
cumulated and when prepared will bel
presented to the federal grand jury.
The evidence being procured is not only
against all men who have filed on tim
against all wen who have filed on tim
Der lands and have an agreement with
the syndicates to deed them over as
soon as the receivers receipt is pro-
cured. This not only applies to Clat-
SOD county, but to every county in the
state. In the Roseburg land district
over half the filings have been held up
pending investigation. and it is doubt
full If any patents will be issued.
The indications are that after the
grand jury completes the investigation
now before it then another grand jury
will be impanelled to investigate the
minor frauds. 1t is very probable tnat
after these investigations are conclud-
ed that at least rs per cent of the en-
tries will be cancelled and the lands
thrown open for settlement to bona
ide purchasers. There are a number
If filings made in Clatsop county under
he homestead act, where the persons
we're unable to comply with the law
'elative to cultivation and settlement, 6
nd most of these have since been filed l
lpon as timber claims. All of these j
laims will probably hold If all the 7
eports are true, there will be a num- F
er of Astorians invited to Portland
0 explain where they got the money
D prove up on their timber claims.
Iany Of these will be examined be- ei
ore the United States commissioner d
nd presented to another session of P
le federal grand jury.

BOOTH AND BARRETT.
How the Breach Between These Two
Great Actors Occurred.


Great Actors Occurred.
The great breach In the friendship
between Edwin Booth and Lawrence
Barrett occurred when Barrett was
playing "1hc Man o. AirlCo" ia
Booths theatcr In New York cl -. Tho
piece did not draw. and Booth decided
to have Il discontinued So (ns he aft
erward told Of the incldcDU he broach.
cd the subject 10 Barrett, who lmmo.
dlatcly grew angry. "Do you mean tO
cay that can't play IT, hc demanded
hotly. Booth assured him IN concll-
intory way that he gave tho drst part
fairly. but not the last. In a greater
passion than ever, Barrett repeated,
"Do you mean ~ say that can't play
~" Booth, still trying to not offend
him. said, II don't think you have quite
worked into the last act" Then Bar
rctt's fury burst it's bounds, and he ter.
minated torrent OF lnvcctivc with the
remark: "YOur fathers weakness aud
your brothers crime placed you where
you are. But will live 10 scc you In
The gutter and will stand above you"
