SEVEN INDICTED IN INQUIRY
INTO ALASKA LAND CASES
They Are Charged With Making En-
tries In Names of Dummies"
Warrants Are Issued.

WASHINGTON. Oct 15.-After
months OF secret effort and patient
waiting, the officials of the general
land office announce the indictment
of a number of claimants to valuable
coal lands in Alaska. The entries in
volved number 154 and cover almost
$4,000 acres of land, all OF which lies
in the Bering Strait district in which
the Cunningham claims are located.
They are what are known as the
English or Strategy and the Christie
pher-Simmonds groups, the former
containing so and the latter IA claims
of 100 acres each. The deposits COW
cred by these claims are believed to
be as rich as those OF the Cunning
ham mines, which cut conspicuous
figure in the Ballinger-Pinchot con-
troversy.
The indictments were handed down
In the United States distrtcf coprt sit,
ting In Tacoma, Wash, and the fnfof-
nation that they had been returned
was conveyed in kilograms from Spe-
cial Agent Christensen, I'm charge OF
Alaskan matters, to whose efforts the
findings are especially due.

nouncement OF the action against the
English group, and stated that indict-
ments had been returne against c. F.
Munday, A. III. Stracey, Archie w.
Shields and E. E. Siegley. A few
minutes later came the second tele-
gram telling Of the indictment of Cor
nelius Christopher, George Simmonds
and Mortimer c. Sweeney. of the sec
ond group. 1t added that warrants
would be issued as soon as the in
dicted men could be apprehended.
The first group of defendants takes
it's anne from the fact that a num-
Der of people in western Canada are
supposed to be interested In the
claims taken up by this party. Mr..
Stracey is resident of Vancouver
and is charged with being instrument
tai in making some OF the locations.
Mr.. Munday is a prominent attorney
In Seattle.
The charge against the indicted
men Is that the entries were made in
the names of dummies"
Both groups of claims figured to
considerable extent in connection
wit hthe Ballinger-Pinchot inquiry.
