THREE INDICTED FOR FRAUD
SPEEDY RESULTS FROM GRAND
JURY AT MusKoGEE. .'+
lEveCtlgation Into Town Lot SwindIes
Said to Reveal Wider Conspiracy \
t Than Suspected.

Mu5kogee, Okla, Jan 27.-Semi-of-
hcial reports from the federal grand
Jury last night were to the effect that
three persons have been Indicted on
town lot fraud charges and that from
tenlto fifty separate indictments have
been found against each. '"' .
Government officials, while declin-
ing to vouchsafe any information in
advance of the report of the jury, do
not deny that indictments have been
found. To Danville, Va, goes the dis
Linction of furnishing the first wit
nesses to cause true bills to be found.
In the case of these witnesses the tes-
timony is said to be unanimous that at
least thirty. eight deeds were forged
by the person indicted. b..
. The sentiment here is that the
growth of the city has been retarded
by the clouds cast upon titles of
realty and that the clearing away of
the cloud will result in great benefit
TO the city, though unquestionably
working haidships in many casts
While every possible precaution is
being made by the government to pre-
vent the secrets of the grand Jury
room from leaking out, apparently
well founded reports are in circulation
to the effect that the investigation
shows much wider conspiracy than
was suspected when the jury was
called to weigh the testimony against
less than a dozen men. 1t is said
many others are involved.
To o. e. Pagin, assistant attorney
general, has been assigned the duty Of
drawing up the indictment. Pagin was
formerly assistant United States dis
.trict attorney at Chicago, where he
gained the reputation of preparing in
dictments which never failed to hold.
As recognition Of his ability he was
promoted to his present position.

The Office is in charge of the auditing
department and an invoice of the
stock in the yard is in progress.
The Green Bay Lumber Company,
with headquarters and offices at Des
MOines. is one of the large lumber con-
Germs operating in the state. 1t has
a number of other properties at vari-
Gus locations operating under the CEN
trail management. Mr.. E. C. Finkbine
of Des Moines is president of the COM
pany, w. o. Fin<bine is vice president.
X. E. Jewett is secretary, and r. b.

II. A. Thomas comes to the Oskaloo-
sa yard as manager of the new acqui-
sition. Mr. Thomas has been in man
agement OF the Green Bay property at
Yalisca. He will remove his family,
wife and four children. to oskaloosa

These changes are. in pursuance of
the unyarying policy OF Ely Meyer &
NJ. c. Simon TO reward faithful and
efficient service with promotion from
the ranks. There is no favoritisni
shown in any OF the extensive opera
tons of this great firm. The blood
relative OF the highest official or mern-
Der of the firm would stand no greater
chance of reward. by virtue OF his re-
latlonship alone, than the humblest
member OF the Ely Meyer & NJ. G. ST
mon forces throughout the country.
Every advance is determined by merit
alone, and there is no such thing as
pull.
Mr.. Beeson opened the Kansas City
shop three years and half ago. He
had been a successful clothing man
for a score of years in Iowa, and still
controls big business of his own. But
his talents as high class clothes man
came to the attention OF the Ely Meyer,
and NJ. C.Simon people. and they made
him the head of the Kansas City shop
when it was opened. That their judg-
ment was not at fault has been amply
proved by the firm hold which the
shop has on the public. The Ely
Meyer & M. c. Simon business has
been built up to immense proportions

his assistants. f

Judge and Jury.

I Judge Clements yesterday sustained
the motion of the contestants for a
new trial Of the Ann Jones will con-
test, which was decided week before
last in favor of the proponents. The
grounds on which the motion was
sustained were that the court had
erred in making certain instructions to
the jury. The case will probably be
tried again during the next term OF
court. John F. Lacey and w. Clones
were attorneys for the contestants,
and w. Fl. Heating and Frank T. Nash
for the proponents.

Mr.. Barkhurst is the man who
raises the sweetest and best pork
In the West. His pigs are fed on
cooked barley, milk and alfalfa hay
and no finer meat finds it's way in
to the market than that brot here
by him. He has fourteen young
hogs now ready for market and they
will bring him cash, on delivery,
for there is no discount on the
pork raised on the Barkhurst ranch.
This is only a sample of what be
done by many others in the valley.
There is no need for a single pound
OF pork being shipped in if our
ranchmen and farmers would fol-
low Mr.. Barkhurst's example.
