Matters were so man. ipulated that the marshal's private mess-house was kept full of Uncle Sam's boarders at $3.O0 per day each, until the District court convened at Rampant in July, 1903.
 Charges of corruption and incompet- ency were then filed with the Court against Commissioner J. Lindley Green. Judge Wickersham realizing that simi- lar charges against Deputy-marshal-re- ceiver George Dreibelbis were to fol- low, and the ultimate exposure of him. self as their colleague, adopted pre- concerted mode of procedure and the the accused was officially white washed.

 Nor long thereafter something seem ed to be doing at Washington and a change appeared to come over th ? mar shal's office at Rampant. Judge Wick ersham, having established his head quarters at Fairbanks. Deputy marshal George Dreibelbis was transferred to that precinct, and Deputy marshal Charles Dreibelbis was transferred from Valdez to Rampant. But a short so- journ at Rampant convinced Deputy Charles Dreibelbis that the corrupt methods of Commissioner J. Lindley Green would involve him seriously, so by request he secured transfer to the Fairbanks precinct, and no appointment was, or has yet been made to fill the. vacancy at Rampant.
 The marshal's office thereby passing up the entire official control of Ram part precinct to Wickersham and and Green. This action. together with the fact of there being no marshal at Circle City, leaves distance of 600 miles on the Yukon without police pro- lection, and the peoples property and person subject to the will of judici- ary, the present status of which is:

 GRAFT AND CORRUPTION

To ILLUSTRATE the egotistical, arbi- trary and dictatorial principles of Judge Wickersham, take for example his rule or ruin policy as demonstrated in ad- ministering the executive functions of his office. Not content with the abso- lute dictatorship of all matters in any way connected with the numerous functions of the District judgeship, he must also manipulate the the U. s. Marshal's office; as to the choosing of subordinate employees therein to the petty positions of jail guards.
 In the fall of 1902, JuGge Wicker sham appointed J. Lindley Green, as his local representative, commissioner of Ramlart precinct. At that time George Dreibelbis, also pronounced disciple of Wickersham, was deputyU. s. marshal of Rampant precinct. Dep uty Dreibelbis was also receiver of the mining claim No. 4a Glen; he having been appointed as such by Judge Wick ersham.
 Upon the completion of the federal jail at Rampant in Nov. 1902, Deputy marshal-receiver Dreibelbis and Com missioner J. Lindiey Green joined issue for the avowed purpose of making all the mohey possible through the differ ent channels of their respective offices. Deputy marshal Dreibelbis holding the exclusive privilege of feeding at s. co per day each-the prisoners confined in the federal jail, the extent of his in- come through that channel must de-. pend entirely upon the in, n,lination of.

fifteen typewriter pages. In it he
absolutely denies any responsibility
for the publication of the stories from
Caracas rejecting upon the integrity
of Assistant Secretary Of State
Loomis while he was minister or at
