MORE LAND FRAUDS.
schemes for Obtaining NebrasIsa Govern. ment Lands Illegally Inearthed in
 Chicago by Secret Service Men.

Chicago, Sept. 2c.-An extensive lands in the vicinity of Alliance. Neb., was unearthed here Monday and Pat rick J. King for many years the head policy" promoter of Chicago was ar rested on a charge of being the ring leader For three months secret ser vice operatives have been at work in Chicago in connection with the existence of company said to have been organized for the purpose of il. legally obtaining title to homestead5 rest was made on complaint of secret service operative, Robert Hobbs. O: Washington. Subofnation of perjury was the specific charge on which Kin was arrested. lie was arraigned be- fore United States Commissioners Fotte and released cn S2,500 bonds until october A.
 It is charged that King with mum. Der of other men has used assd civil war veterans and their widows to fur ther the scheme of obtaining title to vast tracts Of land in Nebraska, King is charged with having fraudulently obtained title to seven sections of land from as many former soldiers.
 Agents of King are said to have per suaded former soldiers to file claims on the land, after which they were induced to sign contracts to transfe, the title to King. The prospective home-steader was then given railroad fare to Nebraska and his expenses paid. When the title was cleared the land was turned over to King. Tho land filed upon is of little value at present and irrigation was relied upon to make the scheme profitable. Kings case will have to be transferred to the courts of Nebraska for trial be- cause the alleged fraud was committed there.

MORE MARINES TO CUBA.
Government Putting Forth Efforts to Re inforce the Blue Jackets Already
 on the Island.

Washington, Sept 26.-The greatest efforts are being made to reinforce the American marines now in Cuban waters and there have been almost continuous conferences for the last "A hours between the chief of the naviea- ion bureau and the commandant of ma rines relative to the speedy transpor- lation of this advance guard of the American forces which is to occupy he Cuban ports in the event that the pending negotiations at Havana fail.
 As a result of these conferences, to which Acting Secretary Newberry was party, 1000 extra marines were ordered to be assembled at once at Atlantic coast points preparatory to sailing for Havana. It was at first proposed that these marines should sail Wednesday, but 1t was found that they would probably be delayed about two days while the warshfps which are to transport them are being made ready The men will be concentrated chiefly at Norfolk. Va, and League Island, Pa. Probably all of the ma- rines on the'Atlantic coast stations Will have to be employed to meet this draft. Those at the smaller southern naval stations and yards will probably be transported by some of the Morgan Line steamers. the navy department having prac- tieally completed an arrangement with that company for quick service in this emergency.
