BY ILLEGAL METHOD
Two Hundred THOUSAND Dollars Fine
Paid to United States Govern
ment Besides the Original
tBy Associated Press.l

SALT LAKE CITY, March ga
notable victory was won by the Unit
ed States government in the district
court today when the Utah Fuel COM
pany paid into court 100000 and plead
ed guilty to the charge of having OBJ
tanned coal land by fraudulent meth
DDS.
The company, a subsidiary corpora
ton of the Rio Grande railroad, to-
gether with Henry G. Williams, Robert
Forester, George A. Moore, William
d. Foster, IL. N. Clark and Alexander
H. Cowie, officers and employees, was
indicted by a federal grand jury III
April, 1907 for having obtained title
to 1440 acres of coal land in Sewer
county, Utah, through dummy entry
men.
The validity of the indictment was
attacked, as was the constitutionality
of the law under which it was brought.
Both law and indictment were sus-
tanned ultimately by the supreme court
of the United States, and the DEFEND
ants were on the verge of trial by jury
when the surrender took place.
The plea of guilty was entered today
by j. f. Vale, general counsel for the
fuel company. 80,
The court assessed a fine of $4,000
and Judgment for $4,000 in favor OF
the government for coal taken from
the ground.
Reverts to Public Domain
The land reverts to the public do
main. and the company loses the $14, 40O
fee originally paid, as we'll as the fur-
Their sums paid to the dummy entry
men through whom 1t was taken up.
The indictments against the 1ndi-
vidual defendants were dismissed, as
were five suits in equity 1nvoVlns
MANY thousands of acres taken up py
dummies as agricultural land, ana
afterward turned over to the fuel COM
pany. ,,ra
who has prosecuted the coal cases TOT
the government explains the dismissal
of the equity cases by saying that tne
land involved had been bonded aro
the bonds sold through the Morton
Trust company of New York to nno-
cent purchasers.
Rather than reimburse these pur-
chasers, to the amount OF $Z'ooo,ooo, II
was deemed advisable to accept the
plea of guilty in the criminal case ana
let the title to the bonded property re-
main undisturbed.
An indictment for perjury against
Thomas A. Moore, which grew out Oh
fine testimony before the grand jury,
was dismissed.
In reacquiring the 1440 acres involved
in today's action the government is
enriched to the amount of 100000, that
being the appraised valuation or the
Sewer county lands at the present
time.

PLANS TO EXTERMINATE
PORCUPINE; TREES KILLED
Nocturnal Animal Destroys Mucn

Eating Bark

SAN FRANCISCO, March 29'(Ke-

aging the lodge-pole pine forests OF
the eastern slope of the Sierras.
Practically the entire area OF the
Inyo national forest has been affecteo
TO some extent. In many locaItles
the damaged trees aggregate as hlgn
as % per cent of the total stand.
While these areas are not large, II IS
evident if something is not done 10
curb the attack much of the timber IN
that section will be killed.
The porcupine feeds to large ex-
tent during the winter months on the
inner bark of the pine. To secure this,
he travels about on the snow and COM
pletly girdles the trees just above the
snow line. OF course this results
nearly always in the death OF the tree.
The damage would not be so serious
hut for the fact the porcupine seldom
m, kes two meals off the same tree,
but prefers to visit several trees III
the course of a night.
Since it's habits are nocturnal, hunt-
ing this animal is very difficult. Inc
attention of the forest service has been
called to the ravages of these animals,
and plans for their determination are
under consideration.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 29.-The

Many people. not without education

over the perch, Dream, and crayfish

In some cases the water had scarcely
settled after the rain had filed the
dam than the fish we're observed, and
the Australian farmers started a the

obtained. and gained wide credence.
