Trial of Alma Bell at Auburn is NoU DrauUng to Close
- y lSKA COAL
Ia lands CASE Will
Finish TODAY
By Associated Press

SEATTLE, Nov. 23.-The govern
ment virtually concluded the exam
ination of witnesses in the Cunning
ham claims of Alaska coal lands
case today, and it is probable that
the hearing will be concluded here
and adjourned to Spokane tomor-
row.
1t now seems certain that L. r.
CLAWS, who probably knows more
about the case than any other man,
will not be called as witness. He
was former chief of the field divis-
ion of the general land office, and
put in months looking up evidence
which tended to prove that the en-
tries were fraudulently made. He
was dismissed from the government
service because his evidence did not
suit the interior department. AL
though he has been in constant at
tendance at the trial, the govern
ment only called him to identify a
letter written to J. M. Sheridan, the
government attorney.

ange grove in Florida, fully equip
ped with house and implements
for conducting it.

and Mr. Levin gave him sufficient
cash to buy his discharge from the

w. Morse, who is awaiting the out
come of the legal fight to avoid
serving the 15-year sentence on con-

He alleged that jurymen were under
the influence of liquor, and that the
entire jury was in charge of secret
service men, which he alleges was
an improper guard.

Rubber Weed Causes
Sheepmen of the South
west Heavy Losses.


men of the southwest have sui
fered serious losses from q dis
ease know among the Mexican
herders as "pingue.
"Pingue" is popularity supposed
to be caused by eating either the
leaves or roots of a plant which
has in the last few years been
quite prominent in the public
eye as the rubber plant" or
rubber weed"
Whether this plant is d true
rubber plant or not is a matter
which does not interest the sheep
men so much as some remedy for
the sickness that follows its eat
ing by their sheep. On the Car
son National Forest in New Mex
leo, Forest Ranger Bert Phillips,
in whose district a great many
sheep had recently died from PIN
que, after making a study of the
sickness, suggested to the sheep
men whose animals wore dying
with it, that drenches of hot wa
ter and salt might prove effica-
ciOus.
The materials for the remedy
were So quickly obtained and
so easily administered, that sew
eral of the owners gave the plan
a trail. The sick sheep were
drenched every hour with liberal
doses of the mixture with the
result that animals which before
drenching were unable to stand,
were, inside of twenty -four hours,
eating and running around with
the rest of the herd apparently
as we'll as ever.
While the government experts
have not yet made a study of
this disease or given the sugges-
ted remedy official sanction, the
remedy itself is so apparently
harmless and unobjectional, that
considering the results obtained
by its use, there seems to be no
possible danger in giving it full
publicity. The sheepmen can, in
this manner, give it more extend
ed trials and possibly save them
selves from the serious losses
which the eating of this weed by
stock has heretofore caused.
The disease will be carefully
studied and the results of admin
istering this remedy watched
with a view to correcting any
errors in its use should it not
prove of as great value as is eX-
pocted. Meantime, every sheep
man whoce sheep are sick or dy-
ing from pingue will, no doubt,
be only to eager to give this SIM
pie remedy OF hot wafer and salt
drenches. every hour, a good trial,
because the annual losses have
