GOVERNMENT LAND
CASES DISMISSED
Prosecutions Against Promi-
nent Salt Lake Men Are
Discontinued.

Acting on a motion made before him by
the attorneys for the government. Judge
Page Morris, sitting in the federal court
here. yesterday dismissed the indictment
charging Charles NJ. Freed, Walter G.
Filler, Don G. Robbins and Edwin W.
Senior, all we'll known residents OF Utah;
with a criminal violation of the federal
land laws The case was one of many
started under the campaign of the gov
eminent to reclaim coal lands alleged to
have been obtained by fraud in the west,
and to punish the supposed guilty persons.
At the time Of the first prosecutions
the federal grand jury returned an in
dictment in 1867 against the persons
FAMED, for obtaining about 1900 acres of
coal lands in Emery county, fraud being
alleged in the use of so-called dummy
entrymen.
Since the indictment was returned, the
trial of the case has been postponed from
time to time, owing to the i'll health OF
Mr. Freed and on account of similar
cases pending in the United States courts
The dismissal of the cases yesterday
followed a thorough investigation by
Colonel Hiram z. Booth, United States
district attorney for Utah, and Fred A
MAYNARD special assistant to the attor-
ney general these two officials having
been advised in a telegram from the at
torney general that 1t was the opinion
of that official that the case should be
dismissed. The report to the attorney
general. advising the dismissal OF the
cases, was made it is said, because OF the
great difficulty in establishing case OF
fraud and because it was found that a
complete remedy for the recovery OF the
land lay in the land department itself
1t seems that the patent for the lands IN
Emery county had not issued, the per
sons indicted having only an equitable
title to the land, through receivers re-
ceipts which were assigned by the Narl-
ous entrvr7eu to c NJ Freed Following
the policy of the department of justice
at Washington, to leave, wherever pos
sible the recovery of lands TO the pro-
| cedure in the land department the rec
! concentration for nolle pressing the in
/ dictment was made.
The government not only expects tc
| recover the lands, but the land depart,
ment will retain the purchase prizes VI
| $4,000 paid by the entrymen.
