Tells Of
LAND BUYING.
Narrates How Benson Put
Him On to a ssGood
Thing in Interior Realty
PROTESTS INNOCENCE

BY order of the, United States Court
of the District of Columbia the taking
of dispositions for the defendants in
the case of the Government against
Frederick A. Hyde, John A. Benson,
Joost H. Schneider and Henry P. Di-
mond was begun yesterday before
United States Commissioner Heacock.
Hyde and Benson We're present with
their counsel, Joseph C. Campbell. The
Government was represented by w J.
Heney and A B. Pugh. special counsel
for the United States in the timber
land fraud cases. The only witness
examined was Isaac Liebes of the firm
of H. Liebes & Co. Mr.. Liebes was
questioned by Mr. Campbell as to the
some six sections of State land in Cali
fornia and then exchange it for Gov
ernment land in lieu thereof.
Mr.. Liebes' testimony was to the ef-
feet that upon the representation of
John A. Benson, who was an old time
patron and friend of his. he purchased
from the State of California in the
neighborhood of six sections of land
in the names of himself Helene Liebes,
his wife, Isadore Weber, Gustave Mar
Gus, Flora Liebes, his sister, and Henry
Weber and Joseph Weber. his wife's
nephews The men were also employees
of the H Liebes Company. He knew
that Benson was a good judge of the
value of land and when informed by
Benson that the sections in question
were good land he thought they were
cheap at slap acre. This land he
exchanged for lieu lands of the United
States, as he had a right to do under
the law. After the patents were is
sued to him by the United States, the
persons named made conveyances of
the same to him.
At that time there was no agreement
between the witness and Benson or
any one else that the conveyances
were for the benefit of any one else
than the Liebes family or employees,
the witness said. He bought the land
for the boys-the Webers-becausex
they had no parents and he was taking
care of them and wished to assist them
in every way that he could The deeds
made TO him by these persons were
executed personally by them. Benson
acted asa his agent in selecting the
lands The witness had nothing to do
with Schneider or Dimond, he said.
He denied positively that he had made
arrangement to transfer the lands to
any one else after he should receive
a patent for them from the Govern
ment
Mr.. Heney asked the witness for his
motive in investing several thousand
dollars in these lands, and he replied
that he thought it would be a good
speculation at the low price of $1.25
per acre, especially since Benson had
told him that the land was very good.
He added that he had known Benson
for twenty years as q customer in his
store, who was good for any amount
of credit,
