FINES AND PRISON
TERMS FOR FENCERS

Portland, May 1.-"Finis' is beinA
inscribed in the annals of the Butte
Creek Livestock, Land & Lumber
company, in the federal court. The
net of government prosecution is
closing around the members of the
organization, convicted of conspiring
for the fraudulent occupation of 90
900 acres of the public domain il,
Wheeler county.
Hamilton II. Hendricks, secretary
and treasurer of the company, con-
vlcted of subornation of perjury, was
sentenced to 13 months imprson-
ment on McNeirs Island, also to pay
a fine of $500. On conspiracy
charge to which Hendricks had plead
ed guilty a 500 fine was imposed.
Winlock w. Steiwer, president of the
company, convicted of conspiracy,
was fined $500 by Judge Hunt.
Evidence Against Hail.
Evidence produced a the former
trial of Mr.. Hall tended to establish
that as United States district attorne,
he had protected members of the
Butte Creek Livestock, Land G. Lum-
Der company in their conspiracy to
fence 10000 acres of land in Wheeler
county, having been assured that
President Steiwer OF the company.
who at that time in 1901, was state
senator, could be induced to vote for
George w. Mcbride as United States
senator, rather than for Senator
Senator Joseph Simon, of whom Stei-
wer had been up to that time an ar
dent supporter.
In imposing sentence upon Hend-
ricks Judge Hunt stated that he had
much respect for Hendricks evident
intelligence, and that even If Hend-
ricks should serve a prison sentence
he could still come out and begin all
over again with bright prospects
Hendricks asked for a days delay in
the execution OF sentence that he
might confer with his attorneys with
a view TO appealing the case, and this
delay was granted.
Judge Hunt stated in connection
with his sentence of Winlock w Stel-
wer that he considered the crime of
conspiring TO fence the public domain
equal to an aggravated case of fenc-
ing itself, and that he was inclined
TO impose sentence in accordance with
this view

Much Experience in the East.

A mortgage bond in the sum OF
$l75,0O0 was placed on record at the

is being placed on record, the docu-
ment being so large that II will re-
quire the greater part of three days

float bonds in the east to secure funds
to develop and pay for the project in

compaNy, and the man 10 whom will
fall the lot of raising the money nee
essary to carry the project to, a sue

Guilty in securing all the money nee
essary. During the past few years
he has been located at Baker City
and has been actively engaged in the
development of the Powder river val
ley.
The condition of the company's
ditch which is the old Hinkle ditch
improved and enlarged, Is very salts
factory, as is also everything in ccN-
nection with the project, Mr.. Mess
ner will therefore be able 10 make
good showing when he goes out to
sell the bonds, especially since the
project is generally regarded as one
of the most promising in the north
west.
