ment of public lands.
The three women witnesses gave teS-
timOny which tended to show that Rob-
nett was making a business of defra I'd
ing the government by inducing per-
sons to. fraudulently take up land
claims.
The feature of the morning session

Tense 10 show that Mrs. Mary J. Har-
ris was an object of charity, that Rob-
nett came to her and her daughters as
sistance by advancing money and pay

ing shortly after O'Clock until o'clocie
Monday afternoon. The jury has been

examined yesterday on matters, it is
believed, pertaining to the regular coal
shortage occurring every fall and win

building coal houses ard bins along ths
tracks of the Rio Grande came out oc
the jury room shortly before o'clock
last evening. He refused to furnish his

devoting most attention to coal mat
tiers is now admitted. The Oregon Short
Lines record books were taken befoTs

Enormous Damage Done.

Damage done to fields and herds will
run into hundreds of thousands. Seattle's
milk supply comes from them. so this city
will be without milk for days. Six per
sons have been drowned. To the north the
Skagit river is on a rampage. and rail-
read traffic in that direction is al a stand
still. The greatest loss by the streams
tn the north has been to the numbering in
tereSts. where millions of feet of logs
and shingle bolts have been carried into
The sound and out TO sea.
