That His Son, Schiller, Had
Made Entry.

Of Binger Hermann for destroy.
ing public records received de-
cided impetus when the defendants,
who had been testifying in his own
behalf for the past Ave days, was put
under cross-examination shortly be-
fore the close Of the court Tuesday.
After saying positively that no mem
bers OF his family had acquired pub
lie lands during his administration,
Mr.. Hermann qualified the statement
by admitting that his son, Schiller, had
made a homestead entry. to which
title had not yet been acquired; that
Schiller had purchased three such
entries before patent had been Is
sued to the claimants. and that these
purchases had been acquired for 3d.
900 In gold by the defendant to re-
lIeve Schiller's embarrassed financial
condition.
Mr. Hermann admitted that he had
acquired 10000 acres OF public lands
in Oregon when he was receiver OF
public moneys at the Rosebud land
office. This. he maintained, was not
the cause OF his losing that position.
The records OF these transactions, as
we'll as those relating TO the claims
purchased by Schiller. were made ex'
hibIt In tho case. In the latter mat.
ter Mr.. Hermann had written a mem
orandum directing the patents to be
mailed TO his son. A regulation OF
the land office forbidding the giving
out OF information In advance and
also another forblddlng any officer or
employe or members OF their families
from acquiring government lands was
placed in evidence by Mr.. Baker The
cross.cxamination OF Mr.. Hermann
will be continued today.
