His father being then President, the

LAND SHARK VICTIM
Widow Woman Who Purchased
Mountainous Land Below Mall
aga Gets Verdict.

Mrs. Mary C. Schoesser, So years
of age, widow, was given a verdict
of $4,000 in Spokane court Saturday
against Carl Siseman and wife and
Claude H. Paxon. Mrs. Schoesser
was the owner of five lots in the city
of Los Gatos, Calf, which was sup
posed to have been worth $500.
when registration for government
land was opened at Occur d'Alene
reserve she went to Spokane
and later decided to take up her
residence there. She attended the
Apple Show and the name of the We
natchee apple land became known to
her.
After she decided to stay in Spo-
kane she alleges that she placed her
property in California in the hands
of Claud H. Paxon, a real estate
dealer, and asked hi INTO arrange a
trade for her for property in Spo-
kane county, If possible.
In February, 1909, she alleges that
Paxson began a deal with Carl Else
man for Wenatchee fruit land. When
Mrs. Schoesser said that she would
like to view the land she alleged that
she was told that there was not time
to make the trip and that there was
no doubt about it being valuable, as
Paxson himself said that he had
bought some of it.
Deal for Land Closed.
The deal was closed whereby the
plaintiff received 10 acres of the
land and 500 in cash and the pur-
chaser, Carl Eiseman, was to assume
the mortgage of $500 on the Cali
fornia property. 1t was further al
legged that Eiseman disposed Of the
California lots as soon as possible.
The suit was originally brought for
$4,000, but upon the testimony of
Mrs. Schoesser that the property
was worth $500 the reduction of
500 for cash and the assumption
of the mortgage caused the lessen
ing of the claim to $4,000.
The land purchased was a portion
of the rocky mountain back of NAL
aga, and there are a number of vic
Tins taken in by these same real es-
tate sharks. For the past year since
the sales were made, Wenatchee
real estate men have been besieged
by inquiries regarding this land. It
is fifteen miles from Wenatchee ON
a high mountain and is absolutely
worthless. and the agent selling this
land should go to the penitentiary.
