GRAZING LAND IS LEASED
Argentine Republic Has a System
the Features of Which Have
Just Been Made Public.
Especial to The Herald

Washington. d. c.. March 10;-It will be
OF interest to western stockmen to learn
that land leasing for grazing lands has
been adopted n the Argentine Republic.
Consul General A. G. Snyder. of Buenos
Ayres. transmits the following summary
Of the new regulations recently adopted
to carry out the land law of Argentina
He says:
This law gives the lessee of public
lands who has complied with the condi-
lions OF his lease the right TO purchase
up To one-half of the land so leased. The
new regulations state that the price to
be paid for the lands shall be fixed in the
lease, as 1t would not be fair TO expect
the tenant to pay a greater price at the
end OF his term as q result of improve
ments and increased value given TO the
lane from his own work. The right of
purchase was, however. only intended for
regulations now provides that half the
land belonging to the state is to be free
from such obligation II il should be de-
cided to renew the lease of the land at
the expiration OF the former contract.
Al lots up TO $500 hectares tone hectare

direct sale for pastoral purposes must be
duly measured and surveyed, and the
sale must take place within ninety days
of the publication of these details. The
purchaser OF a lot must. within two years.

CALLED THE GRAND JURY
San Francisco District Attorney May
Secure Indictments Against
Ruef's Pals.

San Francisco. March I0.-The men,
bers of the grand jury were hastily called
together yesterday by the district sttor-
ney's office and at once began an inves-
tgation into the conduct of the attorneys
and friends of Abraham Ruef, to learn
IL they had knowledge of his whereabouts
at the time they declared under oath
they had no knowledge of his move
ments. Myrtle Cert. who was the star
witness before the grand jury, was in a
belligerent mood. He endeavored to es-
cape from the grand jury room, and
when intercepted by Percival Dolman. the
doorkeeper, fought to get away. In the
scuffle a pane of glass was broken and
Cerfs flight was cut short by the arrival
of assistance Cert threatened Foreman
Oliver of the grand jury and issued a
challenge to Herey. The grand jury
sought to prove through Cert. who was
in hiding with Ruef at Trocadero, that
he had communicated with the attorneys
of the boss and that they therefore had
knowledge of Ruefs whereabouts. Cert
refused to answer questions on this point
without at first giving any grounds. He
was taken before Judge Coffey and told
that he could refuse to answer only on
the ground that he might incriminate
himself He chose to invoke this excuse
for silence

WILL CONTEST
IN THE COURTS
Railroads Running Through
Nebraska Declare War on
2-Cent Passenger Rate.

Omaha. March I0.-It is authoritatively
announced in a private report of official
character from Chicago that the rail-
roads of Nebraska will contest the 2-cent
passenger fare law which the legislature
enacted a week ago and the governor
signed last Wednesday at midnight plac-
ing it in effect at once. The roads are
now preparing to carry the case TO the
courts and there make a vigorous contest
to determine the validity OF the new law
When the law was enacted ii carried an
emergency clause which provided for its
operation upon its being signed by inc
governor or within five days without his
signature. The governor, George l. Shell
don. though elected by the Republicans
upon a so-calied anti-ranroad platform
last fall. ON the stump during the cam
paign advocated q graduated scale OF
fares. rather than a flat 2-cent law. be-
lieving the latter would be confiscatory in
many cases of small or branch roads.
SO when the legislature passed the bill
providing for a flat 2-cent rate, Governor
ing to be consistent with his prediction
course. But when he considered that
without his signature the law. which the
people demanded, might be unconstitu-
tionai owing TO the wording of the emer-
gency clause he decided to sign IL rather
than place himself in the way of what
the majority of the legislature had
deemed a wise measure The railroads,
however, contend that the governor did
not relinquish his former conviction as to
the unfairness of such a measure and
that he and prominent members of the
legislature elected on anti-railroad plat
forms, even now question the validity of
the law primarily on the grounds as he
advocated in his campaign speeches. that
il is confiscatory.
The railroads will proceed with their
contest as soon as they array their forces
and complete their plans of campaign.

Law Rushed Through.

Chicago. March lev. b. Biddle. traffic
manager of the Rock Island-'Frisco sys-
TEN. said he would not be surprised If the
railroads should take the question of re-
duced passenger rates into the courts. i
know this matter has been discussed in
formally" he said. but l am not pre-
pared TO say that any definite line of ac-
ton has been determined upon. The ac-
ton of the Nebraska legislature placed us
at a serious inconvenience. We did not
have time TO revise our rates. All we
could do was to notify our agents of the
passage Of the law and instruct them to
conform with its provisions in computing
fares in Nebraska. In that territory the
cost of operation is much greater than II
is in the east, and there are other condi-
tons with which we have to contend
that the legislatures OF several states
seem not TO have taken into consideration
Look what they did in Wisconsin. 1t is
only an example of what should be done
in every commonwealth. A commission
was appointed to inquire into the advisa-
bility of enacting two-cent fare law. 1t
continued its investigation eight months
and reported that a twO-cent rare law IN
Wisconsin would be unjust.
P s. Eustic. passenger traffic manager
of the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy rail-
road. said a thorough system of account
ing has been inaugurated to show the pre-
else earnings under the new law A strict
accounting of earnings will be kept and
comparisons with the revenue of proceed
ing years will be made.

SOME BIG CASES
FOR THIS WEEK
Trial of Mayor Schmitz and
Abe Ruef Scheduled in San
Francisco Court.
REBATE CASE IN NEW YORK
cAMRRiDeE-oxFoRD BOAT RACE
MARCH 10.

The trial of Mayor Schmitz Of san
Francisco. and Abraham Ruef. the one
time political boss of that city, on in
dictments charging extortion. promises to
prove one of the sensations of the week.
Mayor Schmitz was in Europe when the
indictment against Rim was found, and
voluntarily returned to face his accusers-
He entered a plea of not guilty when
arraigned last Thursday and at that time
it was arranged TO bring the case to
trial on Monday. In the meantime Ruef
had mysteriously disappeared. but he was
located and taken into custody soon aft
erward.
Another Rebate Case.
One of the cases of the federal govern
ment in the sugar rebate cases-that
against the Delaware, LackaEanna 81
Western Railroad company-will be
called for trial in New York on Mon
day. In this case the government charg-
es that payments made TO Lowell NJ
Palmer, owner OF Palmer's docks, Brook
Ign. OF cents per hundred pounds on
shipments to points this side of Buffalo,
constitute a rebate within the meaning
of the law.
The railroad contends that the pay
ments made to Palmer were to recon-
pense him for his loss in profit on bust
ness given the Lackawanna through the
fact that the Lackawanna's freight did
not pass through his docks while that
of other roads did
The government alleges that Palmer
had been vested with power by the
American Sugar Refining company to
route all its shipments and that he there
fore became the actual shipper and that
the payments to him constituted a re-
bate. This the railroad denies. claiming
that the payments were simply to reim-
hurse him for loss of profit in permit
ting diversion of traffic from the docks
operated by him.
